Karen Skelly is a fantastic photographer. She kindly donated photographing our fundraiser, and documented the entire evening. She photographed the sponsor tables, couples, families, friends and even our mime! That in turn gave us the best thank you photos to send back out. Karen and Ken are really great people. More...

Karen was the event photographer for a major, black tie fundraiser at our science center. She was so creative in her photos, made everyone look great, was so professional and generally a joy to work with. She added the extra oomph that we needed and recorded a special event. More...

Karen and her husband were great, they work together as a team really well. I am a hobby photographer and in turn I am the one behind the camera. ..my comfortable zone. When she started taking photos of me I was pretty uncomfortable but she told me to pretend she’s not there and to relax... I started to relax more and not be so uncomfortable. Karen made our day a very pleasant and relaxing day and got some beautiful pictures of my family, friends, husband and myself. Thank you, Karen More...

We booked Karen at the last minute while traveling at Purgatory. She responded quickly to my requests and was very flexible. It rained the whole day before our shoot, but luckily just as we were ready for photos, it cleared up. Karen and her husband were patient with our 2 kids and we felt comfortable right away. Thanks for the great family photos! More...

My husband and I hired Karen for our wedding. It was a small wedding with 25 guests and the ceremony and dinner were both outside. Karen did an excellent job and her husband is a great assistant! I chose Karen not only for her skills and professionalism as a photographer but she was also willing to work with a budget of any size within reason. She was also open to custom packages with digital files and/or custom prints. We had all of our edited photos within 5 weeks after our wedding and she sent over a few previews of photos as soon as the day after the wedding. Her flexibility and personable disposition make her the perfect choice! More...

What do you love most about your job?
We love to help people and provide them with family heirlooms that will be passed down through generations. It makes us really happy when people laugh and smile, and let us know that they are over the top happy with their images.
What inspired you to start your own business?
My dad was a photographer and I loved going into his dark room to watch him make prints. I've had a camera in my hands for as long as I can remember and taking photographs was something that made me very happy. I love meeting new people and making friends with my clients. Then my husband joined me as a second shooter at weddings, and he holds the umbrella with lights that make our images beautiful.
Why should our clients choose you?
We're very experienced with every detail of weddings and family portraits. Making clients happy is our main objective.
