It’s so nice to finally meet you, with over 10 years of photography experience, my camera has transformed the way I view this beautiful world.

I shoot weddings, portraits, food, branding and whatever else catches my open eyes.

Lately I’ve been praying on repeat: “Lord, inspire my creativity to glorify You.” Every story, every image, every wedding day—I want it to point back to Him.

To every couple I’ve had the joy of serving this year… thank you. To those of you getting married this fall—I can’t wait. It’s not lost on me what a gift this is.

Truly, blessed beyond measure. 🤍

You’re engaged!!! 💍
Ahhh, I’m so excited for you. What a sweet, whirlwind season you’re in.

And if you’re thinking, “Wait… we still need to book engagement photos 😅”—breathe. You’re not behind. I promise.

You don’t have to have it all figured out. You just need someone who gets it—and knows how to make this feel natural, fun, and actually you.

This isn’t about stiff poses or checking a box. I want you to feel like you’re falling in love all over again—with photos that make you forget the camera’s even there.

If you’re a little nervous or think you’re “awkward” in front of the lens (literally everyone says that)… don’t worry. I’ve got you.

We’ll make this relaxed, romantic, and full of those oh-my-gosh-I-love-you-so-much kind of moments.

August always holds a sacred kind of weight.
Our son, William, was born on August 9.
He would’ve been six this year.

It’s hard to believe it’s been three birthdays without him.
Three years of missing.
Three years of having his sister earth-side as an only child.
Three years of learning to live with both grief and gratitude.

Psalm 34:18 says, “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted…”
And I’ve felt that nearness most in the quiet ache—
not because He fixes the pain,
but because He sits with me in it.

This kind of loss doesn’t close you off.
It opens you—makes you softer, deeper, more available to bless others.

“Happy is the one who can see God’s hand in everything…”
Even in this.

I carry William’s story as a vessel—
not just for me, but for anyone who needs to know that sorrow and sacred can exist in the same breath.

He is still good.
Even here 💚

Why hello! Kelli here, your somewhat camera-averse companion from this tiny part of the internet. To be honest, I thrive on photographing you lovely people in the real world far more than posting here.But, you know, if I don’t put myself out here, I might just end up on the sidewalk with a cute kid and an exasperated husband, playfully begging, “Will photograph for food.” 😄

It’s Filmy Friday, so I’m sharing a carousel of images that I’m truly captivated by—not perfectly curated, but deeply loved. 🎞️❤️ As my business has grown, I’ve chosen to take things slower, really focusing on those meaningful moments. It’s all about quality over quantity for me, and film photography just fits right into that vibe—it adds such a real, authentic touch to every photo.

And speaking of things stuck in my head, Janet randomly played on my Spotify playlist today — “It’s All For You” — and now it’s my unofficial soundtrack for today’s post! Somehow, it feels just right as I share these moments with all you beautiful people. 🎶

If you’re someone who treasures hours spent poring over old photos at your grandparents’ house, we might just be soulmates in the art of preserving memories. Let’s chat—I’d love to be part of capturing your life’s beautiful moments wedding day, potential babies and beyond. If you made it here - thank you 💚💚

Friendship is one of God’s greatest blessings, and this weekend I was reminded of just how precious that gift is. Standing by Sagan’s side as she stepped into this beautiful new season of her life becoming Leslie’s wife was a true honor.

Proverbs 12:26 says, ‘The righteous choose their friends carefully,’ and I’m endlessly grateful for the gift of Sagan’s friendship. Together, we’ve grown in faith, encouraged one another, and challenge each other to be the best versions of ourselves.

I didn’t always understand the weight of a God-ordained friendship, but over the past 7 years I’ve learned the blessing it truly is.

Here’s to a lifelong marriage, friendship, and the joy that God’s plans bring to you both. 💖 Congratulations Mr + Mrs Popham!

Let’s Talk Wedding Photography Styles! 🎞️

Choosing the right photographer is all about finding a style (and person) that feels like *you.*

Documentary photography is having a moment right now—and for good reason. It’s all about capturing real, unscripted moments as they naturally unfold. This style is perfect for couples who love being affectionate and aren’t afraid to show their love in an open, authentic way. The intimacy, spontaneity, and raw emotions it captures make every moment feel so alive.

But if PDA isn’t really your thing and you prefer a more reserved vibe, a classic, posed approach might feel more comfortable—and that’s totally okay!

Personally, I love finding the balance. I’m all about those raw, candid moments throughout your day—like a quiet glance or spontaneous laugh. But let’s be real—most people feel a bit awkward when a camera shows up (and that’s normal!). That’s where fun prompts and easy posing come in, helping create those beautiful, genuine moments without any pressure.

Let’s tell your story in a way that feels right for *you.* 💍✨

Celebrating the Littles was entirely too easy!

2024 has been a season of discovery and growth, a time where I’ve leaned into the calling God has placed on my heart. I’ve learned to reflect His light more brightly in the work I do, serving couples who entrust me with the most meaningful moments of their lives. This year has been nothing short of heartwarming—full of beautiful connections, tender glances, and memories that transcend the ordinary.

As a hopeless romantic myself, I treasure the raw, unfiltered moments of your wedding day. From the soft glow of morning preparations to the unspoken emotions that spill over during your vows, I photograph with intention, capturing the fleeting yet timeless. Film and digital both hold their own unique beauty, and I use them to preserve the joy and sincerity of your love.

For the brides planning their 2025 weddings, I see you. The excitement, the details, the dreams coming together. If you're searching for a photographer who will walk alongside you, embracing the real and the beautiful, I would love to be part of your story. Whether it’s here in Texas, Michigan or somewhere your heart calls you, let’s create something that feels just as timeless as the love you’re celebrating.

Here’s to the new season ahead, to love stories yet to be told, and to the joy of new beginnings. 💍✨ https://kellitylerphotography.com/contact
