MEET YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER

Hi! I'm Kelsey Slayton

I'm a wife and a mama. My husband and I have two beautiful girls, two angel babes, and two sweet pups. 

I've been in the photography industry for almost two years now but before this adventure, I was an intensive care registered nurse. With the stress from *you know what* in 2020 and then suffering the loss of two babies, I decided to tap into my creative side and start a business from scratch. 

This has been one of the best decisions I've made- as I'm able to stay home and care for my girls, as well as help others create cherished memories. 

I am based in Paragould, Arkansas, as we moved here in 2020 (that year just had a lot going on.!) but I do travel throughout Northeast and Central Arkansas.

I adore lifestyle family sessions and milestone sessions (kiddos, maternity, seniors...any milestone that you want captured!)

I work closely with my clients to design and create a session inspired by YOU to create cherished memories that will last a lifetime. 

Here's a little more about me that you might find fun or interesting!
 

I'm a complete homebody. I love staying at home and cooking/baking, letting my girls play in the mud, tending to the garden, or reading a good thriller (if I ever get a bit of time to do that, LOL). Also don't let me fool you- I'm a complete beginner at baking and gardening. In fact, I've replanted seeds three times this year already because the sprouts either died or the birds got to them. And I can't even tell you how many times I've failed at trying to bake a good sourdough loaf. 

Grey's Anatomy is still one of my favorite TV shows, even after all these years (if you know, you know).

Flea markets and thrift stores are my jam- I buy a lot of things for my home/clothes secondhand to *try* and do my part to reduce waste. And also I prefer antiques for decor so it works out for me.

I have found a vintage settee and vintage Peacock chair that I love to break out for sessions if they fit your vision.

My editing style can vary from session to session- it depends on the time of day, the season, the clothing choices, the background... I tend to stick with more bold, emotional, and warm tones, but sessions can vary depending on the circumstances. 

I offer a client closet that is filled with unique dresses, kids clothes, and some men's options too! Styling is included in your session and I offer a styling guide for you to browse through to help you decide on outfits.

I love people and I love what I do. I will do my best to ensure your session is as stress-free and natural as possible. I am also so thankful for my clients when they choose me for photography needs- photos are so special to me and I think that is very evident in my work.
