Kelly photographed our wedding in August of 2018 at the Santa Ana courthouse and also at s second venue. She did an amazing job and had them back to me within two weeks. I highly recommend her. We love our photos. Thanks Kelly! read more

Kelly is amazing! After seeing my friend's family photos I asked her for her photographer's contact info. She gave me Kelly's info and I contacted her right away. Kelly was super responsive and made it very easy to book the shoot. Although this is a very busy time of year for family photos, Kelly was able to make time for us. She was quick to edit and send us our photos. We couldn't be happier with how they turned out. Kelly recommended for us to shoot at the Thomas Riley wilderness park. The lighting and scenery were ideal. Kelly was super patient and helpful and was able to capture so many beautiful moments. My usually camera shy/averse 3 year old was fully engaged and was loving the photo shoot. Kelly was able to capture remarkable shoots of our 2 month old as well. We are incredibly happy and grateful to have captured these moments in time so beautifully thanks to Kelly! read more

Totally unsatisfied would not recommend to anyone we paid photos for our sons wedding and could have had anyone do the same or better quality than she did I don't like to bitch but my wife and sons new father in law took better photos than she did at the event read more

Kelly is such an amazing photographer! I loved all of the photos that she took of my daughter and I. She is wonderful with kids and was really able to capture my daughter's personality in all of the photos. She picked a beautiful location for our photos and had so many great ideas for poses and spots that would look great. I will definitely be recommending Kelly Dobyns Photography to all of my friends! read more

Kelly took my kids' photos at a friends' birthday party and they were incredible, even inside a bounce house!! She's since done a family shoot for the 4 of us and a huge cousin shoot with 5 kids & 6 adults and she rocked it. Not only does she help corral the kiddos, but she knows exactly when and where to point the camera to capture the sweetest candid photos. We were so happy with the way the cousin shoot turned out that we've vowed to do our holiday photos this way every year. I can't recommend Kelly enough for kids photos! read more

My fiancé and I were entered into a Facebook contest to win a free engagement photo session by Kelly. And we WON! Our engagement photos were everything we were hoping for and more. We were so happy with our engagement photos that Kelly shot our wedding as well. We've had a sneak peek at a few of the edited photos and are absolutely blown away. Kelly is my new go to for any photography. read more

I am beyond pleased with the service and quality of photos from Kelly! My fiancé and I decided to plan our wedding in a week's time, to have it fall on a specific date. Landing on a Sunday, it could not take place at a courthouse and I was hoping for an outdoor ceremony anyway. High quality photographs capturing the day was really important to me but I realized that I may need to sacrifice having the "best" since we were planning so quickly and I may need to pay a premium as it was last minute. I turned to my local Facebook "Mom's" group for recommendations. Of the 5 responses that I received, 2 recommended Kelly. I reached out to her and 2 other referrals. After perusing all of their online portfolios, Kelly's were the style I liked the most so of course I assumed she'd be the most expensive. Wrong! Her price was more than reasonable for the 1-2 hours that I requested. I booked her services, signed a contract, put down a small deposit and we were good to go! Kelly showed up on time and got straight to work, no questions asked. An hour later, the ceremony and all family photos were complete. She works fast, which I love. I have 2 kids so we've had our fair share of family, maternity and newborn photo shoots and this was by far the easiest on us. Not a lot of posing or wasted time, Kelly just shoots away and captures great "in the moment" shots. Did I mention that I got married on a Sunday morning and had over 150 edited photo files sent to me by TUESDAY MORNING? Unbelievably fast service, surpassing my expectations. I posted some of the photos on Facebook and have received so many compliments, including a one telling me mine are better quality than their wedding photos. I highly recommend Kelly! read more

Kelly photographed my courthouse wedding on New Year's Eve and I love how all my photos turned out! I was given the edited digital copies and able to make beautiful announcements and keep sakes out of them! Thank you for capturing such a special day for us! read more

After searching sooo many different wedding photographers we decided to go with Kelly Dobyns and I'm so glad we did! For starters, she was the quickest to reply and when you're planning a wedding that really helps! She answered all my questions and after looking at her photos I was excited to use her on our big day. Our pictures came out even better then I could have imagined. She captured so many moments I didn't even get to see myself that day which was so special! You know you are happy with your photographer when you have dozens and dozens of photos you want to blow up to hang on your wall! She also is affordable which was big for me during my search. If you are looking for a sweet, talented, reliable photographer who knows her stuff, give her a call! You won't be disappointed! Thanks Kelly! read more

Kelly Dobyns Photography did my sister-in-laws wedding on August 31, 2016. At first the wedding was to be held at the Santa Ana Courthouse and that is how we found Kelly. We had seen the amazing photos she took there. But the guest list started to expand and we switched to a different venue in Fullerton. Kelly was amazing. She captured every special moment of the wedding. She got excellent shots of the outdoor ceremony and was great while taking all of the family pictures in the 90 degree heat. Her pricing was very reasonable and she was very flexible. What I liked best was how fast we received our edited photos from her. We were so excited to see the photos and the turn around time was very fast. I highly recommend Kelly if you're in need of a wedding or even family photos. read more

Kelly did a shoot with my 2 little kids and I and the pictures were wonderful! She did a great job making my toddler and baby comfortable and caught genuine laughter and 100 watt smiles. She has a eye for capturing amazing scenes, selecting the perfect settings and creatively using the elements to deliver unique photos that don't look posed. She also delivered the pictures super fast, which is very important when babies are growing up so quick. Her post production work is also fabulous - she made my kids' eyes really pop! read more
