Hi, I’m Kelsy Mellema.

I am here to serve as your West Michigan documentary photographer! My passion is photographing families as they are - with real connection, real moments, and the memories that are special to your family.

For some families, that means riding bikes, coloring in the driveway with chalk, or running through the sprinkler. For others it might look like a messy trip to your favorite ice cream place after playing at your neighborhood park.

Documenting your family in a way that tells a story is what my goal is during your session. I want your photos to feel so deeply like you.

I don’t know your family story just yet, but I can’t wait to find out what makes you special, and to use my lens to tell your beautifully unposed story.
