Get To Know The Gal Behind The Camera

It’s so nice to meet you!

Hi, I’m Kendell — photographer, storyteller, and full-time lover of real, unscripted moments. My passion started with documenting the people I love most, and it’s grown into capturing milestones and everyday magic for others, too.

I believe in photos that feel like you — the joy, the chaos, the soft in-between moments you’ll want to remember years from now. Whether I’m helping you celebrate a growing family, a new season of life, or a moment that deserves its own spotlight, my goal is always the same: to make you feel comfortable, confident, and completely yourself.

We might be a good fit if…

We might be a good fit if you value connection over perfection — the kind of photos that feel alive. If you’re all about snuggles, playful prompts, and letting the moments unfold naturally, we’ll get along great. I believe kids should run wild, couples should laugh loudly, and nobody should have to stand stiff and posed for longer than a few seconds. Sessions with me are relaxed, full of movement, and yes — sometimes a little messy (the best memories usually are). Whether you’re celebrating your growing family or soaking in a season with your favorite person, I’m here to capture the joy, the chaos, and all the beautiful in-betweens that make your story yours.

These are a few of my favorite things…

Coffee before conversation is the rule, ideally a honey-vanilla latte from a local shop or whatever seasonal flavor is calling my name. Competitive Scrabble nights and experimenting with new recipes are pretty standard around here (the Italian in me believes food is a love language). I love the balance of a sweaty workout class followed by a slow, cozy morning, and life feels fullest with my tiny circle — my husband, our pup, and the people who feel like home. And if we meet, don’t be surprised if I treat you like a friend I just hadn’t met yet.

Your Story + My Camera = Magic

From the very first “Hey, I’m interested!” to the final gallery delivery, I’m in your corner whether we’re chasing toddlers through a park or celebrating a brand-new marriage. Before your session, I help you pick a location that fits your vibe, coordinate outfits so everyone looks great without matching like a denim-on-denim family band, and make sure the whole plan feels effortless. On wedding days, consider me an honorary bridesmaid with a camera. I’ll straighten veils, hype you up, and herd family members like a well-trained sheepdog for those must-have photos. The goal is simple: zero stress, all fun, and photos that feel like your actual life. Messy, magical, and completely you.
