Kevin began photographing weddings in 2009 and met Meg in college. From there, Kevin started the beginnings of what is now called the KLV Standard. A photo philosophy that aims to ensure consistency among the team of photographers who work with us.
Kevin is still our founder and lead photographer, while Meg works behind the desk answering all your emails and other online administrative tasks.
Working alongside my sister and brother-in-law proved to be the only environment worthy of the amount of hours and care. It’s a nurturing yet driving force, compelling one another to do our best and celebrate each other’s wins.
If you would have told me 10 years ago that Id’ be a successful photojournalistic photographer in Southern California, documenting 500+ weddings, traveling to all hidden gems nationwide, doing what I love everyday of the week with a talented team- I would’ve called you a dreamer.
My goal as a photographer is to capture the raw and candid emotions that people feel on one of the most important days of their lives.
Seeing the excitement and joy in each couple inspires me to preserve their memories in a way that feels timeless and true to them.
I’ve worn many hats, but my place has evolved into managing happiness. Running a business for 99% of our relationship together has given me the voice I never knew I had, and awakened a passion for creativity I only hope to share with my team and whatever I might find myself in. The road has been long, but in reality we’re only getting started.
We believe that weddings should be captured in the moment and not acted out. The landscape is just as important in the frame as our couples. Our collections are cinematic and play out like a movie when you revisit them. The best moments are captured in between conscious thought and when you let go. Let our cameras fade into the background and immerse yourself fully in the moment in front of you.
