About Me
Capturing Your Story
Photography to me is capturing a moment in time so that my clients can go back and relive those moments for years to come. I am drawn to the ability to freeze time in a world where it seems everything is moving too fast. When you invite me to tag along with my camera I am committed to providing you with gorgeous images that not only capture you and your loved ones but also the feelings and emotions that come with it. I specialize in lifestyle photography and love capturing not only the subjects but also their surroundings, whether it be their home, the family ranch, or their favorite mountain range or river. A portrait becomes even more beautiful when it includes the places and spaces that we hold closest to us and make us who we are.
Meet the Photographer
I am Keelia Jo a born and raised Montana girl who loves anything and everything outdoors. I am happiest when I am with my husband and my dog out on adventures with my camera in hand. I love camping, fly fishing, floating the river, cooking, sipping hot cocoa around a campfire or snuggled up with a good book by the fireplace. I rarely leave the house without my camera in tow. Photography allows me to tell stories through my images and bring others along on my adventures. I will forever be thankful for the way photography has taught me to slow down and appreciate the beauty that surrounds me.
My Philosophy
My philosophy is simple: Never stop shooting and always continue to learn and grow as a photographer. Photography is an every changing art that requires me to continue to educate my self in order to keep up with technology and trends. I know that my reputation is only as good as my last photo shoot. I excel at capturing the raw beauty that is life in a fun and creative way. I would love to chat with you about capturing your life through images that you can cherish forever.

Keelia captured my kids different personalities....not to mention tons of pictures with the whole crew smiling AND looking the camera which never happens when I'm holding the camera. She is great at connecting with kids and putting them at ease which results in amazing pictures. The quantity and quality of photos we received from our shoot was above and beyond the cost.

Seriously though if you haven’t booked a shoot with Keelia you’re missing out! Every shoot I’ve booked with her over the last 5 years has been amazing! We always have so much fun and she captures the most amazing pictures every single time, and let me be the first to tell you that capturing amazing pictures of toddlers is not an easy task, but Keelia is super patient and I’m blown away every time! She’s captured engagement photos, our wedding, just for fun photos, maternity pictures for all three kiddos, milestone pictures 3,6,9 & 1 year, family photos , the birth of our daughter, my brothers senior photos , and now I have beautiful memories to look back on forever.

Keelia took our engagement photos and our wedding photos this year, and she was a dream! She was so much fun to take pictures with, and made the experience really enjoyable. She was so attentive and made sure we got every photo we needed, but also so creative and fun! Not only did she make everything so easy but the pictures also turned out breathtaking. From bringing water and snacks for the wedding party to sweeping us away to take sunset pictures- Keelia is AMAZING. Thank you thank you thank you.
