“My wife and I were married October 2023 and had started looking about a year out for photographers. As a lesbian couple, we were concerned about even sending notes out to photographers in our midwestern city, however, all of that faded away when we found Kelsey. One of the biggest challenges when finding an lgbtqia friendly photographer is having them treat you like a "real" couple. Some vendors will just look past who you are, but your relationship is still treated differently than a man wife wedding. We NEVER experienced that with Kelsey. We felt VERY validated and accepted by her. She was open to all of our ideas on how we wanted to capture our pre-wedding shoot (in a skating rink - and it was perfect), as well as the wedding day itself. She offered all kinds of solutions and ideas when our wedding day turned into a typical midwestern weather day and decided to be cold and rainy. Honestly, she well surpassed all expectations of what kind of photos we would receive and even thought the colorful sunny vibe we were hoping for on our wedding was slammed into by an unexpected rainy day, she took that and turned the vibe into a deep, witchy feel, which was even better than expected. Kelsey was well-organized and picture-taking was SOOO easy, even with my wife's large family. Everything went along without any issues at all, and honestly, Kelsey is just a really amazing person in general. We really appreciated taking photos at our home getting ready (Kelsey's suggestion) and just getting to spend time with her. The pictures she captured will be something we will love having documented for years to come. We can't recommend her enough!”
