  • Welcome to Kelly Braman Photography

Meet Rachel and Andy!  I have been excited to share their nautical inspired wedding day with you! The clouds were super dramatic that afternoon and made for amazing photography! The clouds were just icing on the cake because the images were even sweeter with the fun that we had and you can see from the look on their faces how in love Andy and Rachel are!  What a sweet couple:)

Andy and Rachel…I hope married life is wonderful! Selena and I had such a great time getting to know your friends and family!  Everyone was so gracious and kind.

I also LOVE working with Events by Septembers’s Bride! Their work is always beautiful! And you know I adore Nine Mile Smile! Check out these awesome vendors!

Enjoy your images! They turned out beautifully!

 

blessings,

Meet Beth!

Oh, man…I have been dying to share these images of sweet Beth! I Love shooting Senior Girls…they love style and make-up and bring cute dresses that I want to steal! How fun is that?

 

I knew Beth and I would be a perfect fit…she was wearing cowboy boots with her lace dress and loves a more rustic setting…um, yes, please! We shot at my family property…it’s been so fun to shoot there…tons of spots on our 160 acres:) I love it!

Ok, back to Beth. She said she loved my photography because it was relaxed and and beautiful..yup, now I love her even more!

She and her mama came out and we started this fab session with professional make-up. I offer that in my collections because I truly believe it enhances your portraits!! Plus..who doesn’t love being pampered? I asked Allison to come along as I love her fresh approach to make-up application! Beth doesn’t wear a lot of make-up and so she wanted something that still looked like her…she LOVED the result! Thanks, Allison!!

 

Beth…thank you for spending the evening frolicking in the field with me! Enjoy your senior year, sweetie!

 

blessings,

kellyb.

Nick and Stefanie are suuuch a sweet couple! I was excited to document their wedding day and it was simply beautiful! I have known this family for quite some time so it was even more fun because I was able to laugh and spend time with such a great family!

I ALWAYS  get excited to see my bride’s dress! They spend so much time finding the “perfect” one and I  know they can’t wait to put it on! I secretly want to go dress shopping and try them on too;)  Back to the day…I get side tracked talking about all of these awesome details;) Ok..so Stefanie’s dress was embelleshed with The Most Gorgeous Rosette’s…I don’t know how esle to describe them. You will see for yourself! I will find out where she found it. To.Die.For.

EVERYTHING was held at the 1000 Oaks Country Club. The wedding, ceremony and all photos…it made the day super relaxed and we had such a great time! You will see from the images what a gorgeous day it was!

 

Nick and Stefanie…thank you for allowing me to be a part of your day! Leda and I had such a great time with all of your friends and family! Enjoy your tropical honeymoon when we are all freezing in MI! *jealous! 😉

 

blessings,

Meet Justin!

 

Gosh..this guy is one of my favorites! He is one of my best friend’s son. I honestly can’t believe he is a Senior This Year!  Justin’s mama, Jenny and I packed up in their jeep (with the top down, of course) and headed to my property for Justin’s senior portraits! He laughed at us along the way and you can see from the images…what a great time we had!

 

Justin is an Amazing Cross Country Runner and although he did not take me up on my offer to follow him in his uniform around the track (*wink) we did grab some awesome shots of him around Greenville and in the country:) A perfect evening to celebrate his Senior Year and I was there to comfort Jenny..I say that half jokingly….I don’t want to think about how it must feel to watch Your Baby grow up right before your eyes!  It happens in a blink of an eye!

You have much to be proud of , Jenny!!!

 

Justin…you are such a great kid! I hope your Senior Year is awesome!!! You already know how much I love and care about you and your entire family! It was such a great day spending time with you and your adorable mama! I pray that the remainder of your Senior Year is nothing short of Amazing…just like you!

 

love and blessings,

kellyb.
