KKP Associate Photographers
Are you in love with the portraits, style, and branding that come along with Kelsi Kliethermes Photography, but paying $4,000+ for your wedding photography is out of your budget? You might find that working with one of our associate photographers is right for you.
By booking an associate package, you are hiring a professional whose photography style is extremely similar to mine, while all of your contractual agreements, editing, and product fulfillment services are completed with me. Booking with an associate allows you to still benefit from the KKP bridal experience and brand at a much smaller investment!
I can ensure that you will be in wonderful hands when hiring an associate photographer with Kelsi Kliethermes Photography. My team has been very carefully and thoughtfully chosen. After working alongside and being mentored by me, my team is specialized in documenting the special moments of your wedding day with a lot of passion and heart.
My team is sweet, kind, gracious, and hardworking, and I can promise that you are going to fall in love with them! Scroll on to learn more about our team, view their portfolio, and check their availability for your wedding!
Meet Karson
KKP Associate Photographer
Karson and I first met in 2017 After she referred a friend’s wedding to me!
I remember contacting her to thank her for her referral and found out that she too was a photographer. We struck up a conversation, I asked her to start second shooting with me, and the rest is history! What began as a working relationship quickly escalated into a lifelong friendship. I am thrilled to have her on my associate team!
Karson grew up in a small town in central Missouri, and she is not only a photographer but also a full time NICU nurse at Women’s and Children’s Hospital and lactation consultant! She loves spending time with her two adorable pups, Oaklee and Henley, planning her annual flower garden, enjoying trail walks, quilting (and often times helping Kelsi pick out a few quilt patterns herself), and crafting!
Words from Karson: “Enjoy every second of your special day because it goes by so fast! You are not only spending the day with your new spouse and bridal party but I will be there tagging along too. It’s my job to make you feel comfortable and at ease so you can enjoy every special moment with your family, all while I capture it! We will share smiles, laughs, and maybe even a few tears. You will not regret choosing KKP for your wedding day - I love working with Kelsi and am so happy to be apart of her amazing team!”

Meet Kiley
KKP Associate Photographer
I Met Kiley in 2019 when she attended my workshop for photographers!
I was truly blown away by not only Kiley’s photographic eye and attention to detail in her work, but her soft and kind spirit and the way that she could effortlessly make genuine connections with people (something that I value immensely in my associates). I knew right away that she would be a great fit for my associate wedding team and would be able to offer a wonderful photographic experience for my couples!
Kiley grew up in a small town near Jefferson City. She graduated from the University of Missouri with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, emphasizing Marketing, minoring in Entrepreneurship, earning a Sales and Customer Development certificate, and a certificate in Marketing Analytics. She is not only a photographer but a full-time Digital Director for the Missouri Attorney General's Office. Kiley enjoys the little things in life like meaningful conversations with friends, spontaneous trips to Three Story Coffee, traveling, and being a crazy plant lady!
Words from Kiley: "On your wedding day, I am not just picking up my camera and taking photos. I am documenting the most unsurpassed moments in your life. The most valuable and significant memories that will stick with you for years and years to come. I am so blessed to be a part of Kelsi's team and your real-life love story."
