of those couples that makes your heart melt. I’m not being mushy and cheesy, I’m serious. I met Jess and Ken at Rebekah and Matt’s Wedding and my first thought was… “Well if they’re friends with Rebekah and Matt, they are probably awesome people!”… and I was right! We emailed back and forth and then set up a time to meet. They came to my little office and we talked about everything under the sun…including their VA beach wedding that was coming up in June. They booked and almost instantly, Rebekah messaged me exclaiming how excited she was that I was going to get to work with her amazing friends. You know, when your
FRIENDS are so proud of you that they message your photographer just to tell her how awesome you are, that’s a real friend right there!! Ken and Jess are just as amazing as Rebekah said they were and that was no surprise to me. I’ve been excited for their wedding day ever since!!
We started their session in VA Beach on the boardwalk with PEOPLE, noises, heat and some crazy light. Normally I’m a little nervous to start that way but they were pros, immediately. Don’t believe me? The first images you will see are from my first 15 shots. They just get it and they’re beautiful!!!! Their gentle, soft spoken personalities help create sweet, genuine images and I had a BLAST photographing them! We worked the boardwalk, the pier, and some buildings on the strip before we headed to a park right before sunset. Ken and Jess’s wedding is going to be here before we know it and I can’t WAIT to celebrate with these two!! It’s going to be a fun one, I can tell already!!
So Ken and Jess, THANK YOU for allowing me to document this fun time in your life! You two make such a beautiful, fun-loving couple and I can’t wait until the big day! Enjoy my favorites… many many favorites!
LOVE the carnival in the background!
Jess, I like your style girl!!
STUNNING!!!!!!!
Who knew under an old pier could be so AWESOME!?
Wowsers!!
Love this! There was something making a weird noise behind that orange door…. so we snapped these as QUICK as possible!
Definitely a favorite!
Ken, your choice of bling is IMPRESSIVE

Perfect way to end the shoot!
Thanks for reading!

A year ago, we promised to find a solution for those who were complaining about their R6 raw files looking dull and lifeless in Lightroom. However, due to various circumstances, we couldn’t deliver on that promise until now.
Kelly is an incredible wedding photographer who has been shooting 90 weddings a year. I know, it sounds unbelievable, but it’s true! Kelly’s success and the volume of work she handles is truly impressive.
Your sessions should be working FOR you not against you!
