Hey, I'm Kelsey! Thanks for being here! When I'm not behind the lens, you'll probably find me at my favorite sushi restaurant or hanging out at home with my husband & cats drinking a Starbucks Matcha Latte. You'll notice as soon as you meet me that height is something I'm lacking, but I promise that won't stop me from killin' it at your session. I started taking photography when I was a freshman in high school. My high school offered film photography & I immediately fell in love.

She knocked it out of the park! Her style, talent, and eye are all top notch. She took our ideas and ran with them, giving us the perfect keepsake for our special event. Absolutely cannot recommend her enough!

My husband is my second photographer, so we come as a photo team! Just like you, I have felt awkward in front of the camera. I’ve had photos taken of me that I didn’t like. When you go on a session with me, I will not only make you feel comfortable, but I will make sure you look good! I will give you prompts to keep you moving so you look and feel natural and comfortable. I’m sorry but there are some angles, and poses that are not flattering for everyone. Like, please don’t take a photo of me from below! Hello double chin! What I’m saying is, I Got You!

Among my never-ending list of dream sessions is of course a wedding at Disneyworld and the ultimate outdoorsy engagement session with the wild horses at Shackleford Banks. Don't be surprised when I ask you to add me to your pinterest boards so I can fangirl over your wedding plans.

Hey there, I'm Jordany Almonte, but you can call me "Jordan" – a friendly guy based in the state of New Jersey with a passion for life and a big heart for family. I take immense pride in being a devoted husband and a proud father; they are the driving force behind everything I do. To me, photography is more than just capturing images; it's a way of feeling, touching, and loving the world around me. What I capture in the film holds the essence of the moment, preserving memories that we can cherish forever. Those little things, often overlooked, can bring floods of emotions long after our other memories have faded.

Jordany was awesome: we both had creative ideas for a photoshoot and were able to effectively collaborate and make some amazing content together! He’s got top notch equipment and knows how to use it, was really helpful with posing tips and was a lot of fun to be around while being super professional. I can’t wait to get more photos from him!

Awarded Best of Zola
I seriously can’t put into words how amazing she was and cannot recommend her enough. She was great to have around on our wedding day and I am so happy with our photos. The groomsmen didn't have their act together, even though she provides a detailed schedule, and she was totally chill about it and was like no biggie I'll be back in 30. My fiancé commented on how awesome she was (didn't comment on any other vendors) and one of his groomsmen did too (see first pic). This was before we even saw the pics and they turned out better than I could have imagined. At one point I told her I was done taking pics I wanted to go talked to people and dance, so was a little worried if we got enough shots, but was blown away with the results. I also told her I didn't care that much about getting ready pics but wanted a lot of guest candids and she delivered. She also got way more getting ready pics than I even expected. We didn't want to spend money on a second photographer and she was fine with that and got all the pics we wanted on her own. She truly listened to what we wanted and was incredible at communication and organization. On top of that, she is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, and truly a calming presence during all of the chaos on wedding day. I feel sooo lucky we found her.

Welcome to Russell Photography. This is not just my job, but my passion! Your wedding day is as special to me at it is to you! My #1 goal is to give you the most amazing photos for you to have for a lifetime. High quality photos, at an affordable price! Plus, we are going to have fun while doing it!! I bet you do not hire a photographer every day so we understand 100% how the process can be overwhelming. You photographer needs to be fun, personable and most important makes you feel comfortable. If that resonates with you, you have come to the right place. I can't wait to talk to you, get to know you and to hear all of your amazing plans!!

Lisa Russell blew my expectations out of the water. We went with a package that included an engagement shoot and when we first met her a year before the wedding for that I felt so relieved. She made us feel so comfortable, confident, and made it so much fun. She delivers the most stunning photos and fast too! I was nervous hearing horror stories from weddings where people spent 4,000-5,000 and received maybe 200 photos, took forever and were not the photos they hoped for. When I found Lisa and saw how affordable her packages were I was nervous since it was a good 1,000-2,000 below other photographers I found but when I tell you how thankful I am to have booked her, I mean it. From emails up until the wedding so often, talking to her about my obnoxiously long shot list (sorry Lisa) and overall wedding stress she was my rock through it all. She came in on wedding day and went to town on the most stunning photos and was just the ultimate hype women. She made sure I got all the photos I wanted along with making sure everyone was ready to go for all of them. DO NOT think more affordable pricing than some means lower quality because the quality of service, the close to 1,000 pictures I got back (within a month!!), and the attention to detail was seriously out of this world. I would recommend Lisa to every single bride out there and will be reaching out to her to photograph for all my future life events! https://russellphotography2011.com
