About
Hi, I’m Kelly.
I’m a Denver-area photographer specializing in professional headshots, personal branding, and corporate team photography.
From my studio in downtown Littleton to offices throughout the Denver metro area, I work with individuals, executives, and companies who want professional photographs without the stiff, corporate look.
After more than 21 years behind the camera, I’ve learned that finding a photographer you connect with can change how you feel about being photographed. My clients often leave saying, “Wow, that was WAY easier than I thought!”
A LITTLE MORE ABOUT ME
Seven questions. A few unexpected answers.
A glimpse of the person behind the camera.
01
What’s the first thing you notice about someone when they first walk into the studio or on set?
Usually how they’re carrying themselves. Are they confident, nervous, rushed? That tells me how to start.
03
What is your super power?
I’m a HSP… Highly sensitive person. It’s more of a blessing than a curse and it means that I know how 90% of people are feeling the minute they walk through the door.
And if you were wondering, I’m a ISFJ on the Meyer’s Briggs personality profile.
02
What’s the difference between a photo that looks good and a photo that actually looks like you?
A good headshot isn’t just technically correct… it captures who you are right now. Confident. Approachable. Real. I’ll guide you through expressions, angles and posing so the final images look natural, not forced.
04
People worry that they don’t look young enough, perfect enough… enough in general. Yet they’ll point to a photo from 20 years ago and say, “Wow, I looked pretty good back then.”
Twenty years from now, you might feel the same way about a photograph taken today.
Enjoy the now.
05
What’s the soundtrack playing for a shoot with Kelly Weaver?
Usually ’70s and ’80s rock. Fleetwood Mac, Tom Petty, and a few guilty pleasures.
I love music trivia, too. Ask me why Peter Gabriel wrote “Solsbury Hill.” Just don’t blame me if you leave with a song stuck in your head.
06
What’s something that people might be surprised to know about you?
I’m actually an introvert! I prefer one-on-one conversations to cocktail-party small talk.
Before photography, I worked as a software analyst, so there’s a pretty analytical side to my personality. I’m also a certified color analyst, which means I can happily geek out over which clothing colors bring out your best features.
07
What are you looking for when you review the photographs from a session?
I’m looking for the image where everything comes together… the expression, the posture, the personality. Sometimes it’s a subtle difference between two nearly identical photographs, but one just feels more alive. That’s the one I’m looking for.
08
Bonus Question: Cat or Dog?
Oh I love all animals, including cats, but I’m currently partial to a particular terrier… meet Lucy.
