Timeless, connection-driven portraits for families and professionals.
Award Winning Vancouver Family& Headshot Photographer
At Kindred Photography, I believe portraits should tell a story — your story.
With each session, every detail is designed with care — from professional styling and a seamless session experience to curated wall art and albums.
Whether it’s a relaxed family session, an elegant studio portrait, or a modern headshot that captures your confidence, each image is created with intention, artistry, and heart.
Hey, I'm Kelly!
As a Vancouver Family and portrait photographer — and a mom to three young, spirited kids — I’m deeply passionate about capturing connection in all its forms. From the wonder and chaos of family life to the quiet confidence of a professional portrait, my goal is to create images that feel real, timeless, and full of heart. And because your memories deserve more than a scroll, I believe in displaying your images beautifully — so every day, you’re reminded of what matters most.

Hello Creative Artist
Kelly was absolutely exceptional, both in her photography and customer service every step of the way.
- Moreno Stefanon
This has been the best photography experience we have ever had, and won't be the last one with Kelly!
Kelly is worth every dollar of her services and our family now has an album of such quality to cherish forever!"
- Amy, Port Moody
Kelly was such a joy to work with! She is the perfect balance of professional and personable
Our sunset photoshoot was a lovely experience, and I was pleasantly surprised by how engaged and at ease our three young kids were.
- Emily, Vancouver
Working with Kelly was an incredible experience
She is knowledgable, warm, and able to capture seasons of a busy young family that will likely become a blur in the years to come.
- Christine, Vancouver
Kelly was an absolute joy to work with!
Even though the session felt like a whirlwind and even a bit chaotic due to our toddler’s boundless energy, Kelly managed to capture some beautiful photos for our family and we couldn’t be happier!
I should add that the photo album that Kelly made for us was luxury at your fingertips - beautiful and well made.
- Andrea, Vancouver
Kelly is the most amazing photographer
She captured my vision better than I could imagine. Every time I see our beautiful artwork hanging on our walls I smile.
Your portraits are personal — the journey to creating them should be too.
Too often, photography feels transactional — you book a time, show up, and walk away with a few digital files. But your story, your season, and your confidence deserve more care than that.
After years photographing families, maternity, and now professional portraits across Vancouver, I’ve learned that the most meaningful images come from a personal connection. That’s why every Kindred experience is fully customized — designed to capture what matters most to you, whether that’s the energy of your family, the quiet beauty of motherhood, or the confidence behind your professional image.
A Luxury Photography Experience
Our journey begins with a 15-minute call to learn what lights you up — your people, your purpose, or the story you’re ready to tell — so we can create portraits that feel authentic and timeless.
Our journey begins with a 15-minute phone call so I can get to know you and what lights you up most about your family.
The Process
You wouldn't hire an interior designer without them seeing your home, why would you hire a photographer who doesn't know your family?

Your portraits tell a story — one that deserves to be seen, shared, and celebrated. Whether they capture the joy of your family, the quiet strength of motherhood, or the confidence that defines your professional journey, your images are meant to live beyond your screen.
Every Kindred client leaves with high-quality artwork and thoughtfully designed keepsakes — heirloom albums, wall pieces, or digital-ready portraits — so your memories and milestones are preserved beautifully for years to come.
Together, we’ll create the perfect way to display your images, designed to complement your Vancouver home, your workspace, or wherever your story unfolds.

Let's Chat!
Your images are personal. Your experience should be too. Fill out the form below to get in touch, or if you're ready, keep scrolling to book a 15 minute phone call with me so I can get to know you and walk you through my unique, personalized process.
*please note: if you cannot see the calendar, hit the left pointing arrow in the blue box.
Sound good? Our next step is a phone call...
I do! Your photos are like personalized art. They aren't meant to be stored on a computer where no one looks at them, but to be displayed in your living room, made into an album for your coffee table, or put on a Christmas card to send to friends and family. Because I know how busy life gets, I help you choose the images for these art pieces and I design and create stunning, professional quality artwork for you through my professional print labs.
Do you offer any prints, canvases, albums or cards?
Babies are unpredictable (I know this, I've had three of my own) and I plan for that. My newborn sessions are two hours long, not because it takes that long to capture all the photos you'll want, but because I plan for you to take time to feed, change and comfort baby. If baby is fussy, I'm happy to take a break while you nurse or comfort him or her, and we'll star again once baby is settled and you're feeling comfortable!
What if my baby is fussy during our newborn session?
I absolutely do! When you choose me as your Vancouver photographer, I create your images with the end result in mind, and I don't mean a digital image. Your images are made to be displayed and enjoyed. For this reason, we treat your images like we're designing home decor. I'll help you choose outfits and colours that suit the style of your home, so when they're on the walls, they feel like part of your decor.
Do you offer help with styling for my session?
This varies from client to client and depends on how many images you fall in love with and what you decide to do with them. My clients choose their artwork and images from an a la carte menu and will spend differently based on their priorities. Larger image collections or feature wall art will require a larger investment. Clients invest at least $1500 but can invest $5000 or even $10,000 in their session if they choose.
What can I expect to spend on a session?
Each session includes a pre-session zoom consultation to assist you with styling and give you all my best tips for a stress-free session. At this consultation, I also show you my samples so we can start daydreaming about how you want to enjoy your images in the coming years! You'll also have a professional Hair and Makeup Artist come to you on the day of our session, a fully guided session with me, and a post-session image selection, ordering and artwork design zoom meeting.
What's included in my session?
Have questions? I have answers!
Why should I choose you over all the other photographers out there?
I'll be the first to tell you that I'm not for everyone. But, if quality is most important to you and you're looking for a hands-on, luxury experience with an experienced and award-winning professional who will act as an expert guide throughout the session, who takes time to get to know you and your family and provide you with gorgeous art pieces, I'm your girl.
