HI...Nice to mEet you!




Want to know the girl behind Kailey Marie Photography? For starters, I was married on Oct. 7th 2017 to my amazing husband James. We live in Cleveland with our chubby cat Rambo and Fluffy Aussie Bowie. I discovered my passion for photography in college at Kent State, where I majored in Crafts. Yes, that is a real major and it was amazing. I was able to learn glass blowing, weaving, painting, ceramics, jewelry making, drawing, photography, and pretty much anything that had to do with art or creativity. It was when I started my photography class that I really fell in love with the feeling of creating a moment, perfect or imperfect. I thrived on always challenging myself to create something "better" each time. What many people don't realize is that as a photographer, you're ALWAYS learning. You're pushing yourself to continue to create a 'better" image each time you pick up the camera. As you grow as a photographer, you realize that you're learning not only for yourself but for your clients, your business, your future, and your dreams. I've learned a lot since I started Kailey Marie Photography and am passionate about continuing to learn to give my clients the best experience and best work I possibly can - to give them photos that make them shriek with happiness, cry tears of joy, or see themselves looking more confident and more beautiful (or handsome) than they've ever felt; and to give them peace of mind in knowing they'll have beautiful memories to savor and pass through generations to come. 




 

I'm kailey, An ohio based Traveling photographer

  

1. I want to travel everywhere - with my husband, my friends and my family. I possess a never-ending desire for adventure. 

2. I love music. I love listening to music and singing horribly to it in the car and shower. I love going to concerts. I LOVE dancing to it.

3. If I wasn't a photographer, I'd love to be a fashion stylist. I follow fashion bloggers, trends and truly love helping people pick out clothes that help them look their best. I truly believe I could dress someone else 100x better than I could dress myself.

4. New Girl is one of my favorite shows, and it's so hard to pick a favorite character between Jess's cheerfulness, Nick's panic moonwalking, Schmidt's mispronunciations of common words and Winston's giggling. If I had to pick, I'd say I'm most like Winston - we're both awkward, goofy, and love our cats a little too much.

5. Ice cream and smoothies are my weakness. I purposely don't keep them in my house because in all honesty, it'd be gone in 1-2 days. My favorite flavor is mint cookies and cream and my favorite ice cream shop is a tie between Mason's Creamery and Mitchell's.

"I knew when choosing our photographer, I wanted someone who was passionate and loved what they did. When we met Kailey, I immediately knew she was the perfect fit. She has the most amazing personality. She's someone who truly cares about each and every client. There's been plenty of times we've met up and my husband and I felt like we were just out talking with a friend.She is so kind hearted, down to earth, and overall just an amazing person. Her love and talent for photography shows in each and every one of her photos. When we got both our engagement and wedding pictures back, I was BLOWN away. I honestly can say there was not a bad one in the bunch. These are pictures we will have and cherish forever. I'm so grateful to have known and worked with Kailey!"
