What People Are Saying
“There’s a lot that goes into being a good photographer—anticipation, technical skill, flexibility, artistic eye, patience, enthusiasm. Kelly checks those boxes and is very responsive to client/collaborator needs and feedback too.”
Mark C. Anderson, managing editor of Edible Monterey Bay
“Kelly, I’m OBSESSED! I keep trying to pick a favorite and I can’t do it! I’ve narrowed it down to like… my top 40!”
Abby A.“We absolutely recommend hiring Kelly as your photographer for any occasion, she was amazing! We hadn’t had family photos taken in years but Kelly made it a fun and completely relaxed experience. She even managed to capture some great photos of our two golden retrievers, and getting them to sit still takes some skill! Kelly is professional, enjoyable to work with, and her work is gorgeous. We will treasure our family photos for years to come. You won’t be disappointed!”

Polly D.
“Our family cannot recommend Kelly enough! We hired her for high school graduation pictures twice and she went above and beyond. We explained what kind of outside location we wanted and we picked a place, however, she drove to other locations to find an even better one! She knows how to capture genuine personalities and produced stunning, natural photos. The whole experience was completely stress-free.”
Jen K.“Kelly is an absolute pro! She scouts out the area, finds the perfect time, angle, sunlight, scene—Everything! Kelly did our family portraits and even managed our chaotic bunch. The photos she took are the centerpiece of our home and a moment we will treasure for many decades to come. Kelly gets our highest recommendation for a job well done; complimented by professionalism, unmatched talent, and a smile!”
Hunter V.“Kelly Evans is a TREASURE! For the first time in over a decade, I had gathered my twenty-two person strong family for Christmas. In spite of the holiday season and a power outage and poor weather when we could finally all come together, Kelly met us with joyful, professional, fun-loving, and non-anxious presence. I was truly blown away by her ability to remember everyone's name - from the smallest to the tallest - and to honor all the personalities while directing this photo shoot! She wonderfully captured the beauty and the spirit of that moment, and my entire family left the session delighted with her creativity, warmth, and gift for organizing so many faces! We deeply cherish these incredible images!”
