Colorado Family photos

and beyond

You just graduated, you’re traveling from out of state, or just want some new family photos? My goal is to highlight you and your favorite people in the most beautiful scenery!

My family photo sessions are all about keeping things relaxed, natural, and fun. No stiff, overly posed moments here! I’ll “pose” you when needed—like adjusting a stray hair or tilting your chin—but never in a way that feels forced. Your little ones are free to play, and your family can simply enjoy being together while I capture those genuine, candid moments.

Whether you’re visiting Colorado, celebrating a new addition to the family, updating your holiday card, or just preserving a special time in your life, family photos are a beautiful way to freeze these moments. In the end, you’ll receive a full gallery filled with a perfect mix of candid and classic shots.

Want family photos in colorado but not sure where to start?

I always take the time to figure out exactly what type of photos you’re looking for and what type of scenery. Mountains? Lakes? Deserts? Fall leaves? Snow? Colorado, Utah, and Arizona have a lot to offer! I always professionally retouch my photos so you can relax knowing it is my job to make you and your family look your best while having fun!

We’ll jump on a call before booking so we can go over all the details and I will happily give you location suggestions! Nervous about getting professional photos done? I’ll always send you a photo prep guide so you’ll be extra prepared.

Kelsey is THE BEST! She did an amazing job on my sons Senior pictures. We are from Texas and having his pictures made in his favorite places Silverton/Purgatory were important to us. She went above and beyond to make sure it was perfect.

Kelsey recently took absolutely BEAUTIFUL photos. Not only was she fun and so easy to shoot with, but she also knew different locations in the area and helped us find the perfect setting. She asked us questions about what we wanted from these pictures and how we wanted them to look, and she knew just what to do to get the best pictures!

Truly one of the best! She’s wonderful, amazing personality. She takes your vision and turns it into masterpieces. Absolutely admire her artistic abilities. Will contact you back within day or so. Affordable prices and a great turn around rate for finished projects

Kelsey was a breeze to work with, being flexible and calm during our wedding weekend. And our photos were purely gorgeous and captured the spirit of the festivities! I highly recommend Kelsey for event and family photos alike.

Fun and Candid Colorado Family & Senior Photos!

Hi! I’m Kelsey—an outdoor enthusiast, people person, and a big fan of people who love the outdoors! I moved to Colorado seven years ago for one simple reason… the mountains!

I love capturing beautiful family moments in some of the most breathtaking scenery Colorado has to offer. Having lived all over Colorado, I know all the best spots to make your session truly unforgettable.

My love for portrait photography began in college when I worked for a company taking elementary school portraits. Paired with years of experience as a summer camp counselor, I’ve got plenty of tricks to keep little ones smiling—no grumpy, sleepy tears on my watch!

Stay in the loop for future mini sessions, travel dates and important updates!

Frequently Asked Questions

How many photos will we receive?

The number of photos will vary since every family photo session is so different! Typically you can expect upwards of 50 photos to choose from. I never limit the number of photos, if there’s a good photo, there’s no way I’m not going to show you that! The final number of photos delivered will vary on which session you choose.

When and how will we receive our photos?

All final galleries are delivered through an online private gallery. You’re able to download your family photos and you have the option to order prints directly from your gallery. I aim to get full galleries done within 3 weeks and I always deliver a sneak peek within 48 hours after your photo session.
