Kelly Van Dyke Photography

Hi, I'm Kelly! You may call me KVP. I'm a wife, a mother of three amazing kids, and a photographer based in beautiful Helena, Montana. I'm passionate about capturing those genuine, joyful moments that make up a life well-lived. I believe everyone deserves to have beautiful images that they can cherish forever, and I want to make that dream a reality for you, without the stress and pressure.

Forget the stiff poses and awkward smiles - let's create something authentic and fun! My style is all about keeping it real, relaxed, and joyful. Think natural light, candid shots, and laughter echoing through the fields. I want you to feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, because when you relax, the magic happens.

Life isn't always picture-perfect, and that's okay! I embrace the beauty in the messy moments, the laughter lines, and the genuine connections. I see it as my mission to celebrate life's precious moments, big and small, and provide you with stunning images that you'll treasure for years to come.

My Journey

My love for photography started when I was just seventeen, shadowing a senior photographer and dreaming of capturing the world through my own lens. I've been hooked ever since, and now, I get to share that passion with my clients. Seeing the joy in their faces when they hold their finished images, knowing I played a part in preserving their memories - that's what makes it all worthwhile.

What Makes My Photography Unique

I offer a range of photography services, including portrait sessions for families, newborns, and high school seniors, as well as engagements and weddings. My approach focuses on personalized experiences. We'll work together every step of the way to tailor your session to your unique style and vision.

What truly sets me apart is my commitment to providing a stress-free and enjoyable experience. I want you to feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, allowing your true selves to shine through.

My Values

While my photography style is all about joy and celebration, there are deeper values that guide my work.

Faith plays a central role in my life, and I believe that my photography is a gift to be used to serve others.

Authenticity is paramount - I strive to capture the genuine moments that make up who you are, without forcing anything.

Kindness and love are at the heart of everything I do.
