Lovely photos

Kels photographed our daughter for almost two years, giving us a beautiful record of her first two years that we will always cherish. We had photographs taken in both her studio and on location at Richmond Park and both settings provided stunning results. Kels was also very flexible when it came to viewing and selecting the final images. She also helped designed some lovely montage images for framing, making truly unique keepsakes. We have now moved to the States or we’d be back for more!

A lovely experience


My daughter Georgia and I had our portraits taken by Kels from KJ Photographic at their New Malden studio. It was a lovely afternoon and we both enjoyed sitting for the photographs. Kels was professional but made us feel very relaxed. Kels had Georgia giggling throughout the shoot! Our happiness shows in the prints. We were spoiled for choice when the contact sheets came back, so we ordered a few prints of several different poses. They are gorgeous! We highly recommend Kels and KJ Photographic.

Brilliant photography

I arranged for Kels to take shots of my first baby at 7 weeks old….along with the other babies & mums from my NCT group! 6 babies (group & individual shots) combined with 6 very tired & stressed new mums! She not only managed to take amazing, natural & vibrant shots but she handled our group with exceptional professionalism & sensitivity. Each & every one of us was thrilled with the end results & we all feel she captured a truly magical time in our lives. We returned to have family shots taken & will be rebooking with Kels this summer now our 3rd baby is 10 months. Baby photography can easily become one of those things on life’s ‘to do’ list you never quite get round to. Do it with Kels and you will never regret it!! I cannot recommend K J Photographic enough – exceptional.

We really wanted to say a heartfelt thanks for your amazing expertise, both during the “bump” shoot and when photographing baby Harriet when she was just 8 days old.
Your calm and professional manner put all of us at ease and the results are fantastic! Your follow up service with viewings and prints was also superb.
We have already recommended you to the other mums at our NCT group and will continue to do so to other friends and family.

Thanks again.

Piers, Martine and baby Harriet

Kels did an amazing job photographing me and my two horses at my house. I love the photos and can’t wait to hang up the beautiful frames! Thanks so much.

Beautiful images

Kels has photographed both my little girls from a couple of weeks old, we are absolutely thrilled with the images, lots of which I have around my house and have received many compliments. Thank you to Kels for giving us such special memories of our most precious little girls.

“Kels is very good at making you feel comfortable and at ease. As a horsey person I felt she had a real understanding of how to be around my horse during our photoshoot. She is extremely patient and because of that we had a lot of fun during the afternoon of my photoshoot.

She was able to capture some stunning, natural moments that didn’t look contrived and the final images really showed the connection between me and my horse, which was exactly what I wanted.

I adore the photos and I know i’ll have them with me forever. I can’t thank her enough!”

I was so moved by the experience of the slide show with the music in the studio, what a special experience.  I had never considered the experience of viewing the photos being as special as the end result pictures themselves. So so grateful. We love the photos of my daughter and her pony.

Great photographer!

I have tried many different photographers before finding Kels, from traditional, to Venture. Of all the pictures I have of my 4 boys, by far the best (and most widely displayed in my house) are those taken by Kels, as she manages to bring such high energy into the sessions and get the kids in very ‘typical’ expressions.  I won’t go anywhere else now that I’ve found her! Kels also has a great eye for the type of frame that would make a photograph stand out. I would thoroughly recommend her.

I highly recommend Kels! She is so professional and fantastic at capturing both babies and children at their best. From start to finish she made the whole experience relaxing and an absolute pleasure. We were delighted with our photos. My son is very shy and typically won’t smile for anyone he doesn’t know, while my newborn daughter seemed to be cranky and grumpy throughout the entire session. I was concerned they would look miserable but the results were the polar opposite and fantastic! We had an amazing selection of beautiful photographs. I am still not sure how she did it – pure magic!

Kels has got a natural ability to make any age child feel at ease – I wanted to take her home with me!

Wonderful Photographer!  Kels has done three lots of photos for us and each time we have been delighted! Her patience with our children was amazing as they quizzed round on their wheelie bugs and enjoyed changing into new outfits every 5 minutes!!!!! I love the fact the photos are so them – really capturing their full personality. I was so delighted I clubbed together with friends to treat a friend of ours to a family photo shoot and some framed prints as a 40th birthday treat which went down a storm !!!!!

I get my picture taken a lot. Some I like, some I loathe. The ones I always love come from KJ Photographic. Kels captures me perfectly and it’s totally the way I want to be seen.

Kels has photographed all four of my boys in her home studio and we have some wonderful relaxed images of them as a result. She has also given great advice with framing. We are thrilled with the pictures.

We have three children who never sit still, so when we wanted to have some family photos Kels suggested that we went to the woods and took action shots rather than doing studio shots. The photos were incredible. They captured the essence of our family through sunlight, movement, and nature. We have one of all three of them sitting on a log where quite incredibly they look angelic! Delighted.

Kels took some really lovely photos of me and my two little ones which appear on the editors page in the magazine I produce. Both the children responded really well to Kels’s direction and we felt really relaxed during the shoot. I would definitely recommend her if you are looking for some beautiful family photographs.

My shoot with By Kels Photography was brilliant! I had never been photographed with my pony and I was anxious as he was young and nervous but Kels’ care and attitude made the shoot so enjoyable and memorable – keeping us both relaxed and me smiling! I’m delighted with the photos where she really captured our magical bond. I highly recommend! 

Fantastic baby/kids/family photographer!

KJ Photographic came to our home and photographed our son Ethan shortly after his birth last August. The shots Kels took are amazing, each shot was wonderfully thought through and very naturally executed resulting in a collection of stunning photographs that we will treasure for ever. We were so thrilled with the photographs that we booked Kels again for our eldest son’s 2nd birthday party where she mingled with the kids and adults and got in on all the action and took some fabulous fun shots without noticing she was there! We’ll definitely book KJ Photographic again if there are any more little Wilson’s on the horizon!!

Fantastic photos

We had a fantastic experience on our visit to the KJ Photographic studio. The photographs we got are exceptional and have made both sets of grandparents very happy indeed. Kels’s ability to get such special shots out of our totally uncooperative brood on the day is astonishing! She has an easy way with children which helps enormously. Definitely very highly recommended for a family shoot. We will be back!

So pleased – would recommend!

I went to Kels when my daughter was six months old and got such great results, I went back for my second when she was a few days old. I now have photos to treasure forever.

Kels was incredibly accommodating, patient and great with the kids. Normally my oldest refuses to smile for anyone she doesn’t know – but she really warmed to her and I got some great shots.

Would highly recommend. If I have a third – I’ll be back again!
