HOW IT WORKS

 Hey, I'm Kelly!

Your Toddler's New Best Friend

Just like you, my family is my greatest treasure. And I want the same thing for YOUR family that I want for mine: family photos of memories that we can savor forever. 

When I'm not capturing your memories, I'm making my own. You can find me planning our family's next getaway, sneaking out for boba tea, or meandering local hiking trails with my 3 kiddos in tow! 

Since 2018, I've been privileged to help hundreds of families capture and preserve the moments that matter most to them. As a lifestyle photographer in Greensboro, it's my passion and my purpose, and I'd love for your family to be next!
