What an incredible evening June 21st was! After my first conversation with Meghan, I knew her and Dan’s wedding would be spectacular and it was. Meg had every little detailed covered with such beautiful attention. Honestly to call her creative is a gross underestimate. She blows Martha Stewart away! Throughout the wedding preparations, Meg always had a list going, and I loved that she did. She was so prepared for everything and even taught me a thing or two about organization (for which I am very grateful). I always encourage brides and grooms to book and engagement session with me. It’s a great way to see how they respond to being in front of a camera. When Meg and Dan met up last summer for their session, I knew they would be great for their wedding — they acted completely comfortable and at ease (as if I wasn’t even there), which was so great, because of this everything about their engagement and wedding pictures just speaks LOVE! They are one of the cutest and happiest couples I have met (even though I’ve been lucky to worth with a bunch of great couples), and they are both just as kind and sweet on the inside as they are beautiful on the outside! It was a great pleasure for me to photograph their special day! Without further adieu, here are some highlights!



















Can you say too cute for words? I had so much fun with this little guy for his one year old photo session. He just made me laugh. He is all boy but little boy with the wit of a big kid! He knew exactly what he wanted and that was to be in the warm sun. However, direct sun doesn’t make for the best pictures so we found ways to lure him into a little shade. Then we remembered when he was a week old for his newborn shoot, he was happiest in front of the sunny window! I can’t fault him for that — who doesn’t like the sun? Well as you can see, he did great in front of the camera. He has the most sparkling eyes!













There is nothing better than a brand new baby — a miracle! I was thrilled for the opportunity to photograph this little angel! In fact, I was practically counting the weeks for her arrival. She is just as precious as her big sister’s, who by the way, are two of my favorite models and have appeared on my blog quite a few times already! With the help of my mom, A.K.A. “the baby whisperer”, everything went quite smoothly. Lucky for me, my mom is great with babies. She positioned her just right each time! The old girls made it fun too! I love getting my girl fix too. When everything at my house is legos, balls, and nerf guns, it’s pretty fun to talk nail polish, and “feathers”! Here’s a preview of some of the highlights — cuteness alert!
Sleeping babies are so peaceful!


I LOVE little feet pictures!



All the girls!

Love how fun these girls can be!


What a wedding this was — it was FANTASTIC! I was so happy I was able to share this joyous day with Caiti and Bill. They are a beautiful couple on the inside and out. I am so fortunate to be able to share such happy times with people, and this day was no exception. Congratulations — I wish you a lifetime of happiness! Here are some highlights from your special day! This bracelet was given to Caiti.  Not only was it beautiful, it had much sentimental value.













I am getting hungry just looking at these amazing desserts — I didn’t try one but as you can see they looked awesome!







Oh my goodness — I can’t believe I never posted these? I LOVED doing this session! Carly and Kyle are an awesome couple, and I’m not just saying that because Kyle is my cousin. I truly felt honored to do their engagement session, and I am so excited for their wedding next week. While this week, I am not a big fan of facebook, all in all, I am happy that it has brough me closer to my cousins. Kyle, I still can’t believe you are getting married as I remember when you were born. Carly, I am so happy I have gotten to know you! I wish you both a lifetime of happiness — here’s to the beginning of the rest of your life! Seven more days — can’t wait! :-)







fun sunday….

September 19, 2011

Once again, I’m behind on my blog, but here’s a wonderful session from yesterday. This brother and sister duo seemed to be the best of friends (either that or they had me completely fooled! lol) –they were so much fun and so photogenic! Their yard was the perfect backdrop, and giant beechnut tree was pretty cool too, and I even climbed a ladder for the tree shots! Check out some highlights….




I haven’t added a blog post in what seems like forever! That does not, mean I haven’t had anything to add — actually it’s quite the contrary! I have been so busy with shooting portrait sessions and events that I have greatly neglected my blog. I love taking pictures, meeting new people, being creative, and editing, however resizing pictures and uploading them to my blog is tedious and something I do not enjoy! Though I do love looking at picture on my blog once they are up. Unfortunately fb makes it easy to upload a few images at a time, to showcase a session, however fb also does not display the images as nicely as they really are. With that being said, I am going to backtrack and my subsequent posts might be in no particuliar order, but I do want you to see some of what I have been up to over the course of this summer. Some things have been private events (there have been several) and in those cases, I’ll keep them private even though they have have been fun and yielded some awesome images. In other cases, with the permission of my clients, I will post previews of their session here!

With out further adieu, here is a wonderful session from last night! I am proud to say this is the fourth year in a row I have photographed this beautiful family. One of my favorite things when photographing families and children is getting right on the level of the children while capturing doing what they do best — that is being kids! Last night was no exception. While they sat for some pictures, they also ran around and had fun — the way it should be. As you will see, the light and the setting was fantastic! Here goes….

Pretty in pink….

I haven’t blogged much lately but that’s not because I’ve been short on material. The winter has been hopping, and I have so much to share. I’ll start with the most recent sessions and work my way backwards. Here’s a pretty little angel from a recent newborn shoot. Isn’t she precious? There is nothing like a newborn baby — no greater gift! I really enjoyed meeting her and her mom and dad. Her mom got her to smile and her dad new just how to poser her, and he was an awesome swaddler! lol

I love my newborn sessions and if you need a gift for a new mom and dad, please consider giving an Amy Kelly Photography gift certificate. :-)





Gap baby….

January 20, 2011

He definitely could be a “Gap” baby! He is just so cute! This is the second time I photographed this little guy and just when I thought he couldn’t get any cuter, he DID! He’s like a little dapper man, and he loves the camera. His eyes are like crystals, and he is full of smiles. I also love taking pictures in his house, because the natural light is awesome. The brick wall is really great too — I wish this was my studio.

I have many blog posts to catch up on from before the holidays but thought this was a great one to start with — seriously, this little guy could brighten even the darkest of winter days!



Fall is here…..

October 11, 2010

I love the, and it’s my favorite time for out-door pictures! While I am weeks behind in blogging, I can’t resist posting some sneak peeks of my sessions this weekend while they are fresh on my mind. Isn’t she sweet? I think the cool, crisp air might have been slightly shocking, but she warmed up to the camera in a little time. It’s so fun to see how babies respond to all the things in nature. She loved grabbing the grass. This session was the first of what will be many for me at one of my favorite venues. Here’s a quick preview but there will be more to come! If you’re looking for a wonderful spot for a fall session, message me at amykellyphotography@gmail.com. This is certainly an awesome spot. The foliage is starting to become brilliant. Don’t wait to book your session!
