I’m all about making your big day feel easy, comfortable, and elevated. With a calm, personable approach, I know how to take charge when needed while keeping things fun, low stress, and totally tailored to you, so you can be present and actually enjoy every moment. Pictures aren’t supposed to be awkward... what?! I know. You deserve to feel stress-free, happy, and comfortable on your wedding day, and that’s exactly what The Kelly Friday Experience is all about.

Behind the Scenes
of Kelly Friday Photo

let's chat!!

Hi cuties, Kelly here!

- Kristi + Jay

"We have booked several sessions with Kelly. they have all been such a blast! She makes us feel so comfortable, it makes taking pictures actually fun!"

Love note

"Kelly is truly the best! From the very beginning of our wedding planning process, she was incredibly organized and thoughtful. Everything from timelines to shot lists was handled with care. She captured our day (and the whole vibe of it) perfectly. Every photo feels like us, and we’ll treasure them forever. She also has an amazing eye for detail! She even sent us the sweetest little gift box with Polaroids from our engagement shoot, wedding day, and a flash drive with our wedding video on it.

Beyond her incredible work, she’s just an awesome human. Every single person in our wedding party adored her. People were genuinely sad when she left because she felt like part of the friend group. She’s fun and easygoing, but can also wrangle a rowdy group when needed (and ours definitely needed it 😂).

I can’t recommend Kelly enough. Whether it’s weddings, engagements, boudoir, or whatever, she’s your girl!! 💛"
