Meet Kelsey · Sioux Falls, SD
Hi, I’m Kelsey.
The photographer behind the camera and the owner behind the scenes.
I started this business in college and turned it into a full-time career. My younger self would be jumping up and down. But there’s more to me than the photos, so let’s get to it.
Chapter one
Where it all started
I grew up on a farm in Minnesota, moved to North Carolina after college, and married my high school sweetheart. We adopted our pup, Scout, and somewhere along the way I fell for road trips to new spots, a daily coffee or Bubblr’ (most days both), and cozy nights in.
Still my favorite things when I visit
Half apps with friends
A bonfire
A movie on the barn
Tubing on the lake
