Hey you, I’m so excited to finally meet! I’ve been taking senior portraits since 2007 and have loved every minute of it. My job is to bring out your essence - the artist, the athlete, the genius, the fashionista, the skater, the singer inside of you - so you can share all that goodness with the world.
You’re gorgeous, you’re courageus, and you’re ready to take life to the next level. You’re about to experience the real world, relying on your talents to make it big. I want to capture you just as you are, right now, so you can look back on this moment years later and remember everything.
My Seniors are beautiful people with special energy. I work closely with each to bring out the facets of their personalities in the form of visual art. Just as each human being is an individual, each photoshoot is also individual. This is my specialty. I want to get to know who you are and what you love, and bring that out on camera. Your portraits should be a positive reflection of who you are.
My style? It’s natural and relaxed. I like to enhance that’s naturally there rather than trying to create something that isn’t you. I almost always opt to take photos in natural light rather than an artificially lit studio environment. Natural light illuminates skin tones with a soft radiance that makes you glow. I work directly with my Seniors to choose a location that’s meaningful and photogenic.
We love to create an experience with you that's completely yours. Represents your essence. What makes you the person you are? What do you love? How do you express yourself? Each portrait session aims to answer these questions while making you look absolutely fabulous. Many of the young adults we work with enjoy multiple outfit changes to represent the different facets of their life and interests. One moment you're the star of your soccer team, grass stained from head to toe but loving every bit of it, and the next you're off to a glamorous night out in your favorite designer outfit. This is how you live your life. This is what your portrait session should ultimately reflect.
Naturally Lit or In Studio? The Choice is Yours!
At Kellwood Studio Photography, we love to take photos in natural light, but we can also have a beautiful studio to design a dream set concept with you as well! We love to work with you one-on-one to choose a location that's both meaningful and flattering.
"We engaged Kellyann for our daughter's high school senior pictures. Kellyann came to our home and really took the time to meet with our daughter and develop a rapport with her. Kellyann was great at teasing out our daughter's interests and then suggesting ways to creatively incorporate those interests into the photos. We and many of our friends who know our daughter thought that the photos were of excellent quality, but more importantly reflected who our daughter is at this moment in her life. We would highly recommend Kellyann." ~James F.
