KC Mae Kelly Photography

Hey there, Sunshine!


I’m KC and I’m all about capturing real moments that feel like you. No forced poses, no over-the-top setups—just genuine, authentic vibes. Whether it’s the little details or the big emotions, I’m here to freeze those memories in time without all the fluff.


I keep things simple, fun, and laid-back. You don’t have to be anything but yourself, and I’ll do the rest. Think of this as less of a “photo shoot” and more of a good hangout session—with a camera involved, of course. You’ll laugh, you’ll feel comfortable, and you’ll walk away with moments that feel true to who you are.


So, if you’re down for something easy-going and real, I’m your gal. Let’s make some memories that you’ll actually want to look back on. No pressure, just good times. Let’s do this!
