Common descriptors for Kelsey’s work: poetic, ethereal, delicate, and ‘makes you feel’
Kelsey is a photographer, marketing & brand professional, and environmentalist. She believes that the closer we can bridge our gap to the outdoors, the more stewards to environmental protection we can empower - weaving organic look and feel into photos everywhere she can.
She’s spent her career providing marketing and creative services to startups in the travel, hospitality, and outdoor industries documenting brand storytelling, partnerships, and national campaigns. Kelsey’s work has been published in Lonely Planet, Sustainable Escapes and across various international publications. Previously, Kelsey served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Belize working in Public Health - she accounts the start of her photography career here documenting and practicing daily.
Kelsey currently resides in Seattle, Washington but spends much of her time on Lopez Island exploring the nooks and crannies of the San Juans. She’s always on the lookout for projects that bring her closer to artisans, makers, travel, and marine life!
