Here I am making a blog post about the use of color and that same weekend, Lexi and Dom blew me out of the water with their gorgeous use of color. Holy wow.

I was stoked to be a part of this gorgeous day. Lexi and Dom's families are just wonderful and I was so grateful to document this day for them.

Go ahead and scroll for a reintroduction and what I have been up to lately. :)

It's been awhile since I've shown my face and told you what I have been up to lately. I tend to stay away from the internet unless I am working. So here's an update!

Be kind, be present, and bring joy friends.

Let's talk color friends.The first image is featuring my Halloween queen, Emily, with her husband, Camden. I keep coming back to her wedding and the entire witchy aesthetic so it inspired a recent blog post showing up 5 wedding themes you can "ooh" and "ahh" over. Or maybe even incorporate into your own day!

It can add so much energy, personality, and joy to their photos.

If you’re stuck picking your shades (or just love seeing beautiful combos), this one’s for you.

(P.S. I had way too much fun coming up with color palettes for these days)

Maya & Jonah

These two held their wedding at the historic Elms Hotel & Spa in Excelsior Springs — and the joy was contagious. Their day was filled with tradition and laughter: a heartfelt ketubah signing, the glass smash, and of course, the Hora (my cheeks hurt just from watching them smile all day!).

One of my favorite details? Maya’s veil — lovingly hand-stitched with florals by her mom. Such a personal and breathtaking touch.

From start to finish, this day was elegant, lively, and completely them.

Amy Colin got married this past weekend. These two celebrated their day at Magnolia Brookside in Kansas City, and it couldn’t have been more them.

They’ve been together since late high school (13 years! 😍) and for a long time didn’t think they’d ever have a wedding. But then… they realized how many important people they wanted in the room to celebrate their love.

Instead of a wedding party, they kept the focus on what mattered most: each other and their two sweet pups, Brody + Dany 🐾 (yes, they made an appearance 🥹).

Amy is extroverted, giggly, and hilarious. Colin is introverted, calm, and quietly hilarious. Together, they balance each other so beautifully. When Amy put on her gown, she looked in the mirror and said—“OH SHE’S A BRIDE NOW.” Thank you both for acting truly yourselves for your day. It was so fun to capture.

My husband and I are off to Japan for our honeymoon and 1 year anniversary.

I will be gone until August 24th. No communication will be responded to until then.

Feel free to follow my personal account where I'll post photos from my brand new travel camera. ;)

A note from Grace as I finish up the edits on your heirloom wedding album: "Kelsey is fantastic!!! She photographed my wedding and I couldn’t be happier with how the pictures turned out!! She is a great photographer. She followed the timeline closely and captured all of the tender moments. I am so happy we chose her for our big day!!".

This sweet note came after delivering their gallery, and I still think about it.
Feeling especially grateful for all of you who trust me with such a meaningful role.

🖤 I’ll be out of office until the 23rd, but my inbox is still open for inquiries & album design!

I got to meet Katie and Justin in person for their engagement shoot about 2 weeks ago. They booked me earlier this year and took a trip out from Texas to get in front of my camera.

They're getting married at Hotel KC, one of my favorite venues, next year, and they wanted to include their hometown for their engagement shoot. It was a bit toasty but we were able to take a break inside Union Station for some A/C.

I want to shout out how much I LOVED their outfits! Katie's outfits had such a subtle hint to bridal, and Justin's perfectly complimented her.

Thank you so much Katie and Justin for hanging out with me. I cannot wait for your wedding!

From Jennifer:

"On the wedding day, a photographer's presence impacts the entire event. Kelsey and her second photographer, Caitlin, balanced directive guidance during formal bridal party and family portraits with an almost invisible presence during the ceremony and reception. This dual approach ensures both essential posed shots and unscripted, genuine moments are captured. Her ability to manage unexpected challenges was particularly telling; when the bride fell ill, Kelsey’s immediate, attentive response and quick adaptation (finding a cool-off spot) while still maintaining the timeline, underscores the critical value of a photographer's problem-solving skills and composure under pressure.

Ultimately, the final product is key. Receiving sneak peek photos within 24 hours offers immediate gratification. The photos came out gorgeous and we have received multiple compliments regarding them. The delivery of the full, high-quality, well-edited photos within 4-5 weeks via an online portal is a standard to look for, ensuring timely access to your memories. We received exceptional value for her services; her quality out-matched her price, standing out more favorably compared to other photographers we considered."

Daniel and Izzy chose to order an heirloom album from me when they booked me. AND they chose to let me have free reign on the photos to be put in the album, and the design.

So here are some of my favorites images that I'll 100% be including in their album.

Often couples will take months up to years to put their wedding images in print. So, I have always offered the option to give me the permission to just completely take care of it for you. Get your images printed, it's well worth it.

For the rest of July and slightly into August, I'm going to challenge myself to show off MORE candids on my instagram. Here is my last wedding of the summer until September featuring Megan and Seth! They definitely know how to throw a party on a Thursday!

We were able to stay cool and get some amazing colorful portraits that I'm super proud of. The sun was really doing it's thing this day. Thank you Megan and Seth for entrusting me to document this day!
