Creating experiences and capturing memories that reflect the real you
At Kels Converse Photography, we’re committed to helping have the wedding day you’ve always dreamed of–complete with adventure, family and friends, or whatever else makes you happy.
Hey, I'm Kels!
The story of Kels Converse Photography began with a deep-seated passion for adventure and traveling the world. I was introduced to my new loves through my former corporate position, and it opened my eyes to all of the beautiful places on this Earth that we can experience. I eventually transitioned into elopement photography once all of my friends started to get engaged, and I realized that capturing those moments in the wild made my heart happier than anything else.
Now, I’m here to serve you the best way I know how–with an encouraging smile, my elopement expertise, and my camera. Know that when you work with me (and my people), we’ll dream big dreams and bring your ultimate vision to life.

My Heart Was Telling Me to Build A Team
I’ve always loved to collaborate and work with other inspired minds to create something special. And after working alone for so long, I knew in my heart that I wanted a teammate along for this wild ride.
When I met Caroleanne, I was *sure* that she was the right person to add to my pack. Her eye for detail, love for elopements, excitement for adventure, and a big heart has made her the perfect fit for not only me, but for you too!

The Guest Book
"I can't express how special Kelsey made our day."
From the day we had our first meeting, my now wife and I knew she was the perfect fit. We didn’t have a lot of direction to give and relied on Kelsey to basically create our day for us. She crushed it.
We had an amazing experience and felt relaxed and confident the entire time. We went to multiple locations that checked all of our boxes and then we were treated to ice cream (my fave!) at the end. Our album was perfect and turned around on an astonishingly fast timeline.
We looked through everything with Kelsey and could not have asked for a better outcome. I can’t express how special Kelsey made our day. I would give her 10 stars if I could.”
"Kelsey is truly there for her couples and loves what she does. 100000/10 would recommend kelsey."
Where do we even begin! Kelsey is beyond amazing. She is way more than just a photographer, she is a friend, therapist, wedding planner, dog whisperer and your biggest cheerleader!
She made us feel so sure and confident to make the tough decision to go small.Not only is her personality a dream to work with, her service is even better.
She is very responsive, professional and provided her opinion when needed. She had sneak peaks the NEXT day! We could not stop starting at them. On the album review, we did not expect to tear up and feel those same emotions we had on our day. Her work is unmatched, and we could not have imagined our wedding photos to be this awesome.
We're so thankful we got the opportunity to work with Kelsey. 10/10 recommend."
Kelsey was phenomenal to work with from start to finish, and beyond. Her help planning our day was invaluable. Our families were skeptical about an elopement style ceremony/day vs a traditional wedding/reception and Kelsey’s experience and perfectly crafted “guest guide” really helped them understand what WE wanted out of our day. Another thing that makes working with Kelsey unique is the way she dedicates her time entirely to her couples. Her photos are amazing, the talent she has at putting together an album that helps you relive the day when you look through it is unmatched.
