Kelly’s mission is to inspire a sense of self-worth. She believes the world becomes a better place when people value themselves and follow their own paths. Kelly discovered the magic of photography as a child and made her first darkroom at age 11. She graduated from Pratt Institute, NY, with a BFA in photography in 2000 and has exhibited her work in New York City, San Francisco Bay Area, Spain, and the United Kingdom. Her art has been held in private collections all over the world.

Her underwater photography has been described as "photography as 19th Century painting" and "images that would be a dream come true around the circle of Dante Gabriel Rossetti and the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood in England," by Vivien Knussi, art historian and former lecturer at MoMA.

She hopes to inspire you to embrace your reality as a living dream. Kelly lives in Maui, Hawaii with her husband and daughter.
