  • Welcome to Kelly Braman Photography

Oh my goodness…how excited am I?  You all have heard me say how much I LOVE these family lifestyle sessions, but it’s SO TRUE! And this one with Kelly from The Lily Pad Cottage couldn’t be sweeter!

I follow her blog and love all of her DIY projects! I am so.not.crafty, but certainly appreciate her style and fell in love with her home! It’s beautiful, yet casual and very warm and welcoming! You will see from the images that this family is adorable, fun-loving and full of life and laughter!

These ages are BUSY to say the least, but also full of character and I just have the best time with the little ones! I love getting to know them a bit in the time I spend with them! I swear all parents have no clue what I am getting regarding imagery when I am in the moment with them! But! As you can see…it’s true perfection! The moments, interactions and memories of these stages of their lives are truly precious!

Kelly & Dan..thank you for welcoming me into your home and into your lives for the evening! I truly loved documenting your family and learning more about you! Your littles are simple adorable and I hope these memories are a treasure to you!

 

blessings,

kellyb.

Meet Chip and Liz! I honestly was completely giddy photographing their engagement session! The day was perfect and this cute couple was so fun to photograph! I am over-the-moon excited to share their session at a airplane hanger complete with access to private planes! We had the very best time! Liz also brought along a couple of vintage suitcases and a map. Hello…yes, please!:)I love her style and this session couldn’t be any more adorable!

We then went 1/2 mile down the road and found a little wooded area and took a few more photos…I love each set equally. It was hard to narrow this post down, but please enjoy the beautiful images!

Chip & Liz…loved your session and can’t wait for your wedding! See you in September!!!!!

Oh my goodness if this session isn’t one of the cutest you ever did see! I adore these little boys and their parents! They certainly aren’t strangers to this blog, but now it’s the newest Haveman brother’s photo shoot..little Ford Bear. Of course his big brothers, Jett and Beckett are in on the fun too!

A simple idea that I had of sharing watermelon on a summer day turns into fun memories and sweet moments. This was Ford’s first taste of the yummy fruit and you will see from the images…he sure did love it!

Haveman family…thank you for always welcoming me into your home and into your life. You run with my little ideas and I love that. It’s always the little sweet moments that matter and you will see from your session that we captured that!

Enjoy those baby bears…they grow too fast!

love and blessings,

kellyb.
