Maryland Senior Portraits Photographer

Capturing Your Inner Glow

Senior year: a whirlwind of emotions – excitement, nerves, maybe even a little bit of everything else. I remember it all too well. As your photographer, I’m passionate about capturing the authentic joy of this special time, creating beautiful, natural images that reflect your unique personality and provide lasting memories. With over a decade of experience, I’m here to guide you through the process and create senior portraits that truly capture the essence of you and this incredible chapter.

A little about me...

Hi I’m Kelly!

I’ve been married to my husband, Scott, for 24 years, and while navigating an empty nest has definitely been an adjustment, it’s been incredible watching our kids step into their next chapters. Our son, Dylan, graduated from Colorado State and is now thriving in Denver as a business development rep. Meanwhile, our daughter, Maddie, is a senior at CSU studying psychology and lives for the ski slopes.

When we aren’t heading out west to visit them, I’m usually home experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen, getting my hands dirty in the garden, or hitting the gym to lift weights with Scott. I appreciate the simple things: a good country playlist, a warm chai tea latte, and getting outside for evening walks with Scott and our chocolate Lab, Boh.

As a Maryland-based senior portrait photographer with over 20 years of experience, I’m passionate about capturing real moments that truly reflect who you are. Whether it’s helping you choose an outfit that makes you feel amazing or finding the perfect light, I’m here to guide you every step of the way. I believe true confidence shines through in effortless, natural expressions—bringing out the very best version of you for your senior year.

Fun fact! In a moment of pure chance, I captured my son gazing up at a plane, and this very photo won $25,000 toward his future in the Nikon Coolpix Cutest Baby Contest!!

Meet Tia | Lead Assistant & My Right Hand

Simply put, I don’t shoot without Tia! She is the warm smile, hype-woman, and creative partner who makes every single Kelly Hauff Photography session complete.

With her background as a former cheerleading facility owner & experienced hairstylist, Tia brings an infectious energy and a master’s eye for detail. While I’m behind the lens, she’s right there making sure every strand of hair is perfect, every outfit is sitting just right, and everyone is having fun. She has an effortless gift for making clients feel instantly at ease, and her creative input throughout our shoots is invaluable.

Off the clock, Tia is a dedicated wife and mom to three amazing boys. When she’s not by my side keeping shoots running seamlessly, you can find her crafting custom creations, spending quality time with her family, or cheering on her boys from the sidelines at lacrosse games. I couldn’t do what I do without her!
