EXPLORE HOW WE CAN WORK TOGETHER

Hi, I'm Kelli! I live in Mt. Lebanon in the South Hills of Pittsburgh, PA. I am a laid back family photographer, wife and mom to three young boys. Life is fun and chaotic at the moment. You'll often find me chasing my toddler around my oldest's sports activities, enjoying a hike with my boys, or mediating a wrestling match in our living room. 

I found my love for photography when I started snapping pictures of my kids. "Cheeeeese" was one of my one year old's first words!

I am a pediatric nurse and have experience with medically complex and neurodivergent kids and adolescents. I am currently taking a break from nursing to spend more time with my kids and focus on my photography business. I still have a passion for working with families who have unique functional needs.

LOVE NOTE FROM Jess

"We absolutely loved our photo shoot with Kelli! She is very professional and easy to work with. I loved the tips she gives and her dedication to making our experience as easy as possible (which is especially needed with little ones involved!). Most importantly, our kids loved getting their photos taken by her. We totally recommend!"
