Anywhere the light is Golden

Hi, I’m Kelly, a Los Angeles based elopement, micro-wedding and lifestyle photographer who focuses on capturing genuine, meaningful moments. I photograph sessions at the beach, in the mountains, and throughout Southern California, creating images that feel natural, emotional, and timeless.

I guide and pose my clients throughout every session, so you never have to worry about what to do, I’ll help you feel comfortable, confident, and natural in front of the camera. I also assist with choosing the perfect location that fits your vision and vibe.

I offer studio sessions in my cozy Reseda studio, a small, creative space featuring beautiful natural light as well as professional flash lighting. Whether we’re outdoors or in the studio, my goal is to tell your story in a way that feels effortless, honest, and true to you.

    “Kelly is a very professional and kind hearted photographer that has shot many of my memories over the years from graduation, mommy & me, engagement and holiday pictures! I am not the most natural in front of the camera but she makes my family and I feel so comfortable during our sessions it's like a long time friend is taking our photos. Highly recommend her and also has a quick turn around for edits! We always look forward to sessions with her!”

    “We love Kelly, we contacted her for our pregnancy announcement and we immediately knew she will become our family photographer moving forward. She was ready to go, with many ideas on how to pose and she made us feel so special. She made us even more excited to announce our first pregnancy. Since then, we have done two more sessions with her and as always she has done an amazing job. I love that she makes you feel comfortable in front of the camera even if you don't have the best confidence out there. I've taken photos with other peeps and you can't help feeling the awkwardness but not with Kelly, she gives you that confidence boost :). Attaching a variety of photos from our 3 sessions so you could see how great she is! Once again, Kelly is the best out there... contact her asap!”
