Kelsey Jorissen Photography True. Beautiful. Catching. You. I pursued portrait photography throughout college and graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from DePaul University in 2011.
(39)

I hail from Cottage Grove, Minnesota, but fell in love with Wisconsin at an early age when my family would spend its summers on Lake Viola. Photographing people has been one of my greatest passions from the moment my parents gave me my first Canon 35 mm when I was 14 years old. I got my start taking senior portraits and headshots and I fell completely in love with photographing people. Now I work

on a professional level in the Milwaukee and Chicago metro areas. When I'm not photographing seniors and families, I am snuggling with my three cats or out in my vegetable garden getting my hands dirty!

It is with a sad heart that I am announcing I am not accepting clients for the 2020 season. The reason is two-fold:

1️⃣Due to the pandemic, I do not feel comfortable meeting in person- both for my health and yours.

2️⃣My husband and I are working on some life changes and things are simply too busy for me to be able to focus on family and senior portrait clients.

Please know that I am so grateful for all the amazing families I've worked with and for the community here in Franklin. Stay safe and healthy!❤️

I'm so grateful for all the new clients that have reached out about winter photos, but I have learned they are not worth it. My family and senior portrait season officially ends every year on daylight savings because the weather gets too unpredictable. You think the cold won't be that bad, but after 5 minutes everyone is miserable (me included) and you'll wish you hadn't booked the session! 🥶

I *do* accept in-home newborn portraits through the winter months though because we are inside. So tag a soon-to-be mom who's in need of photographing her bump!📸

As for booking family and senior portraits in 2020, I do not accept clients that far in advance. I'll be sure to post here when the 2020 season is available for booking. Thank you again for a lovely year of photos!❤️

You guys, I just realized that today marks the anniversary of me being in business for *TWELVE* years! On this exact day in 2007, I photographed my first senior portrait session for my best friend, Kim. Today, I got to go through the portraits I took of her sweet 1-year-old girl, Violet. What an amazing twelve years at has been!💜

Holy moly! July is *BOOKED* you guys. Senior portraits, family portraits, and mini sessions have all been spoken for. If you want to get some gorgeous photos done in August, September, or October - don't wait! This season has been busy. While you think you have all the time in the world, I have so many disappointed parents that message me at the last minute in September or October because I have to say no (which I hate doing). If you want to work with me this year - don't hesitate to reach out now, there's no such thing as "too early." ❤️

It's amazing that so many families and seniors are already reaching out for photography this year! I definitely book up fast (usually by mid-July) this means being the early bird is crucial. 💕

My season this year runs from June 19th - October 31st. Paul and I are getting married in early June so I will be not accepting clients until the wedding dust has cleared. 😂

So if you want to book a family or senior portrait session for the warmest and prettiest months of the years, don't be shy to get the scheduling process going now!✨

I am overwhelmed with the wonderful families and seniors I've had the pleasure of photographing in 2018. ❤️

At this point I am no longer accepting new clients for the remainder of the year as I am completely booked up! 😮

If you want to work with me, I can absolutely schedule a session for you starting in June of 2019. My season runs from June until the end of October. If you are looking for in-home newborn portraits, I can photograph for you any time of the year since we are not dependent on warm weather! 😁
