My playful and refined style, paired with a love for film, captures real moments that feel full of life, and capture the essence of who you are.

I'm a passionate Austin-based wedding photographer with nearly a decade of experience behind the lens, specializing in weddings, engagements, and creative portraits. I'm dedicated to creating vibrant, timeless images that celebrate your story and become a cherished part of your legacy.
If I'm not taking photos around Austin or testing out a new film camera, you can find me in a group workout class, walking around Town Lake with my dogs, Muddy and Koop, golfing with my husband Blake, or skiing and hiking in the Colorado mountains.
our approach
My goal is simple: to create images that feel like magic. Not just the staged kind, but the kind that lives in genuine moments, the unexpected light, and the details you brought together so thoughtfully. I want you to look back and not just see your day, but feel it all over again. I describe my documenting and editing style as “true to colorful”—each image is created with my signature sauce of vibrancy and richness, while staying true to life and timeless for years to come.
Kelsey was an absolute joy to work with!
So easygoing, sweet, and professional. She really listened to what mattered most to us. Her photo and film skills are incredible, and she has an amazing eye for fun, creative moments—even the unplanned shots she suggested ended up being some of our favorites. We’re so thankful she was our photographer and only wish we lived in Texas so we could book her for every future event!”

Kelsey's ability to capture the essence of our relationship and the joyous moments we shared was truly remarkable.
She has an exceptional eye for detail and a talent for finding the perfect angle and lighting to bring out the best in every shot. The final images are nothing short of breathtaking, and we find ourselves reliving the special moments each time we look at them. (The only issue is that there are too many we love!)
- Kirby & Sterling | Couple
I am beyond grateful to her because we will cherish these photos for decades to come.
We can’t say enough GREAT things about how incredible it was to work with Kelsey as our wedding photographer, she truly went above and beyond for us. Not only did she capture our day perfectly; she made the entire process stress free and fun. She’s just a joy to work with and the coolest gal!!
- Cayley + MattheW | Couple
Not even 24 hours after our event did we have a message from Kelsey letting us know that we had sneak peek pictures ready and we were FLOORED with the results. We have not been able to stop looking at all of these unbelievable pictures and are so fortunate we can relive these moments forever. We have not stopped getting compliments on how these images captured the true joy of the entire event and we are so so grateful for that.

I'd be honored to work with you and join you on this exciting journey! To ensure each project is filled with inspiration and care, I take on a limited number of weddings each year. Reach out to explore my collections and secure your date!
