Wild Awake Studio

Hi, I’m Kelli ✨

The human behind the camera, the tray of art supplies, and probably at least three creative ideas that haven’t let me sleep lately.

I spend my days documenting love stories, creating spaces for people to reconnect with their creativity, and chasing the kind of moments that make life feel a little more intentional.

Through photography, I help couples preserve not just what their wedding day looked like, but what it felt like.

Through my studio, I invite people to slow down, make something with their hands, and rediscover the joy of creating without pressure or perfection.

At the heart of it all, I’m passionate about connection—connection to ourselves, to each other, and to the moments that are so easy to miss when life gets busy.

Whether you’re here because you’re planning a wedding, looking for a creative outlet, or simply enjoy beautiful things and meaningful stories, I’m grateful you’re here.

I’d love to get to know you, too—tell me where you’re following from and what brought you here 🤍
