Award Winning Vancouver Newborn & Family Photographer
Authentic, personalized art for Vancouver parents who know that family isn't just the main thing, it's everything.
Rather than let the beauty of these moments slip away, we create stunning, timeless artwork out of them. My purpose as your Vancouver newborn and family photographer is to help you relive the beauty of this stage, and all the things you love about it, for years to come.
At Kindred Photography, I believe that your family's memories bring you more joy when they are printed and displayed for you to relish every single day.
Those tiny feet, those little arms and wobbly legs quickly become more independent. We go from rocking them to sleep to waiting up for them to come home, in the blink of an eye
Hey, I'm Kelly!
As a Vancouver Family and Newborn Photographer and a mom to three young, spirited kids, I'm all about capturing your sweet children in all their crazy glory, and your massive, overwhelming love for them. And I believe in displaying your images, so every time you walk through your living room, you'll get to experience this beautiful, crazy stage of life all over again.

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 images are personal, the journey to creating them should be too.
So often these days, photography experiences feel transactional. You get in touch, receive an email with packages, pay a fee and a stranger meets you at a location or comes into your home to capture intimate moments.
After being a Vancouver family photographer for many years, something about this didn't sit well with me, which is why I offer a custom process with personalized assistance throughout, so we can capture the things that bring you the most joy, and create images that fill your heart for years to come.

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.

What can I expect from my photoshoot?
You want to find the perfect photographer for your family - one that will make your kids comfortable and capture all those expressions and moments that make your heart burst, without the frustration and stress usually associated with a photo shoot.
I help take care of every detail from helping select outfits, to directing you so your family doesn't feel awkward, and assisting in selecting the images that make your heart the happiest. My goal is to give you the stunning images you want of all your favourite parts of your beautiful life, make them into gorgeous artwork so you can enjoy them daily, and make it a fun and stress-free experience for the whole family!
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.
