Photographer, Director & DP

Kelly grew up with a love for design and the art of expression. After nearly ten years in San Francisco as a musician and DJ she moved to Los Angeles to pursue her lifelong love of photography. Her vision to create both raw and refined beauty is fueled by her endless fascination and love for people. Kelly is constantly inspired by the world around her and is particularly passionate about documenting the queer community. 

In 2017 she completed the Mastered program in fashion photography which is a course for select creatives and emerging talent based in London. Recently she was highlighted by V-Files on a list of 5 photographers to watch.
