Creative & Fun Focused wedding photography & vintage Films serving Vancouver Island & Alberta
Your wedding photos shouldn’t look like anyone else's.
They should look like yours.
I believe the best photos come from living the moment, not posing for it. That means no forced smiles right at the camera, no performing and definitely no endless retakes that suck the joy right out of your day.
Instead? You’ll find me snapping the spontaneous dance-offs, the sneaky kisses, the epic bear hugs, and all the tiny in-between moments you might not even notice until you look back and realize - those were the real magic.
I'm here to capture the day you dreamed of with heart, humour, and zero weird staged moments.
No forced smiles. No pretending to laugh at invisible jokes.
Just your day, your way with all the glorious, unfiltered joy that makes it your story.
Hey Nerds, Rebels, Weirdos & Lovebirds
You deserve photos that reflect your vibe. That celebrate you being you. We don't have to be cheesy or go outside of your comfort zone.

Hi Kelsey!!
Matt and I are back from our little trip to Quebec!! We wanted to reach out and say again to you (& Michael) THANK YOU!
We are so thankful that you were a part of our wedding day, and are so grateful for the kindness and energy you brought!!! We both had moments of feeling sooo overwhelmed throughout the day, but you helped us through them and it was super appreciated. You read the room and our energy so well, and we both appreciated that you helped us through the dips (esp pre ceremony when we were feeling nervous LOL and during Matt’s group shots). As it turns out weddings ARE really overwhelming, and you cheering us on and being a positive and calm presence through the day was huge for us.
We also had so many compliments from our guests about YOU!!! Everyone agreed that you were so professional, kind, and present throughout the day - lots of people came up to us during the day and afterwards to say that they were so impressed by the work you were doing and how well you facilitated and led some of the moments through the day!! I feel like over 30 people mentioned what a good job you were doing throughout the day - I said “I know!!! She’s amazing!!”. I think there were even a few envious brides wishing they had had a photographer experience like you allowed Matt and I to have!
I literally can’t gush enough about how appreciated your support was over the day and in the lead up to the wedding, and we are so glad that you were a part of it!
Thank you thank you THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts!!!
( PS - We were hoping to send a very small gift in the mail if you would be willing to share your mailing address!!)
Thank you !!! 🙏🏻
LITTLE LOVE NOTES
"Hiring Kelsey as our photographer was by far the best decision I made and the best money I spent for our wedding. She was a great help and guest to have. She was organized, came prepared but was still very flexible with changes throughout the night. AND THE PICTURES SHE TOOK my god. She somehow made everyone look like they belong on the cover of a magazine even though we were just being ourselves. The moments she captured were all authentic and cinematically beautiful (even the "silly" ones-they are my favorite). When we received our full gallery we all looked at them as a family. We laughed and teared up reminiscing the day and I can not thank her enough for preserving those memories for us in such a beautiful way. We cant wait to show our kids one day what love looks like with your partner and family. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Kelsey."
"This human is absolutely amazing 🥹🤍Not only did she go above and beyond to capture every beautiful photo possible she also braved the bumpiest of roads, shared her jolly ranchers and continues to be so thoughtful even after our big day. I cannot recommend Kelsey enough. So blessed to have her in our circle."
Kelsey is such an incredible photographer with a wonderful eye for catching candid moments and editing style that matches her warmth. She communicates clearly, leaving you at ease before the event. During the event, she is sweet, inviting but incredibly subtle - capturing the most beautiful and intimate shots. She is creative and experiments with her camera and skills, which is both exciting to get to be a part of and inspiring. The turnaround time on her albums are greatly appreciated and the platform she uses is easy to navigate and professional. We are so grateful for the memories she has captured for us and look forward to continue to work with her for many years to come! We would highly recommend her for any experience - we've done family sessions, vow renewal/wedding and Christmas minis so far!
Photography, for me, is equal parts art and heart. It’s not just about showing up with a camera - it’s about getting to know you, feeling the energy of your day, and creating something that actually feels like you. Your first dance song? Added to my playlist and stuck on repeat for weeks. The fact that I get to turn real, emotional moments into lasting art? Wildly grateful for that.
