About this vendor
Wedding photography rooted in Northern California, from the coastal cliffs of Sea Ranch to the sculptural landscapes of Ruth Bancroft Garden and the places in between.
I document weddings in a way that allows you to stay fully present in your day, blending digital and film to capture both the quiet moments and the ones that unfold unexpectedly.
With a calm and intuitive approach, I help shape the flow of your wedding so you don’t have to hold it all together. When timelines shift or things don’t go as planned, I’m there to guide it without disrupting the experience.
My work is rooted in light, movement, and the environment around you. Whether you’re celebrating along the coast, in a garden, or somewhere in between, the images that come from that space feel alive, emotional, and true to how it all actually felt.

We hired Kelley for engagement and wedding photography and couldn't have been more pleased with the results! She is a dream to work with (creative, communicative, professional, fri...
endly) and clearly takes great pride in her craft. Neither my husband nor I are naturally comfortable in front of the camera, but Kelley put us at ease and walked us through the whole process. You'll be spending a LOT of time with your photographer on your wedding day, so you want to choose someone who you know is reliable and fun to work with, just like Kelley. I recommend doing both engagment and wedding photography with her so you can get to know her and her style before your big day. Our venue was the Ruth Bancroft Garden, which she knows like the back of her hand, so if you want photos there, she is an easy choice! We would be happy to work with her again in the future.
Kelley did our engagement shoot for us. She made us both feel so comfortable and was willing to do our silly poses and catch the best candid ones in the process. She’s so creativ...

and our wedding. My husband and I are both not used to being in front of a camera, and Kelley was able to bring out our personalities and capture our true essences. We feel so lucky to have found her.
