Hey, I’m Kelly.
I’m the photographer behind Kindred Photography — a Vancouver portrait photographer specializing in timeless portraits for families, children, and newborns.
As a Vancouver family photographer, my work is rooted in capturing connection in a way that feels natural, calm, and true to your family.
For me, photography has never been about chasing perfect smiles or staging elaborate moments.
It’s about connection — the quiet expressions, the way your child leans into you, the feeling of your family in this season of life.
Those are the moments that become the most meaningful artwork in your home.
Over the years, I’ve refined a process that makes this feel easy, natural, and deeply personal — so you can simply show up and be present with your family.
For business owners and entrepreneurs, I offer brand photography through my dedicated site, Kindred Brand Imagery.
Most families who come to me aren’t looking for a quick photo session.
They’re looking for something more meaningful — something lasting.
As a Vancouver family photographer, I specialize in creating portraits that reflect who your family truly is, not just how you look in a moment.
A portrait of your child at this age.
Artwork that reflects your family’s story.
Images that feel calm, natural, and beautifully timeless.
That’s why many of my sessions take place indoors — through studio family photography in Vancouver or in the comfort of your home — where the experience is relaxed, unhurried, and focused entirely on you and your family.
Without worrying about weather, lighting conditions, or busy locations, we’re able to create portraits that feel refined, intimate, and full of connection.
Your photographs aren’t meant to live on a hard drive.
They’re meant to live on your walls, in albums, and in the hands of your children years from now.
Every session includes a personalized design process where we transform your images into artwork for your home — from custom wall pieces to heirloom albums crafted to become part of your family’s story.
Whether you’re booking a family session or in-home newborn photography in Vancouver, the goal is always the same: to create something lasting and meaningful for your family.
Because childhood moves quickly.
I’m a wife, a mom to three energetic kids, and someone who deeply understands how quickly childhood changes.
When I’m not photographing families, you’ll usually find me reading a good book, enjoying coffee with friends, or chasing my own kids through another busy season of life.
Being a parent is what shaped the way I photograph.
As a Vancouver newborn photographer, I approach sessions gently and naturally — especially during those early days at home — focusing on connection rather than posing.
I know how meaningful it is to pause time — even for a moment — and turn it into something you can hold onto forever.
That’s why I care so deeply about creating something truly meaningful for your family.
Kelly was absolutely exceptional, both in her photography and customer service every step of the way.

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.
