  • Emily Reierson

    “Hiring Kelsea was by far the best decision we made for our elopement in Utah. She was so much more than a photographer. She was like a wedding planner as well. She helped me iron out all the details and made sure our ceremony and photo locations were exactly what we wanted. Her and her husband were so easy and fun to work with. They left us with the best memories and photos to cherish for the rest of lives. If you need a sign to elope and hire Kelsea, consider this your sign. You won’t regret it!”

  • Taylor Mottle

    “Kelsea and her husband Matt @redrockcinema were so outstanding!! We eloped to Utah in October 2023 and wanted to make sure we captured every moment to share with family and friends when we returned. We did both photography and videography and they did not disappoint! The direction we received, the ease of flow throughout the day from location to location and the phenomenal results were just PERFECT!! The amount of compliments I received from our loved ones was overwhelming!

    In addition to the amazing service, I want to add how special the aftermath was. Kelsea and Matt worked with me on editing the ceremony video and even accepted some extra photo requests outside the original batch.

    ALSO, Kelsea sends the photos on a site that allows for the creation of coffee table books, thank you cards, wall mounts, frames ect. It was so easy to put together special gifts for our moms and guests using the flawless images Kelsea produced.

    I am in AWE of how professional and creative this dynamic duo were. THANK YOU FOR MAKING OUR DAY SO UNBELIEVABLY SPECIAL! ❤️”

  • Kelsey Dunneback

    “Kelsea and team were so lovely to work with! They did photo and video for our Chaco Wedding- it was a unique ceremony and event that included 35 couples and they were able to effortlessly capture all the people, emotions and special moments of the day. Communicative, open to direction and professional, I would highly recommend you booking! They really were able to run with capturing the right moments in the moment and have a great eye for what will make a great photo. The end photos and video were stunning and really captured the personality of everyone there!”
