about emily
My husband gave me my first professional camera as our wedding gift, and ever since, I have been taking photos. I took them professionally for years, but up until 2020, I was the Senior Vice President of an Advertising Agency out of Florida as well. When Covid-19 happened, I asked myself, why was I wasting time behind a desk when what made me happiest was taking photos? I couldn't kick that feeling — even if that meant quitting a secure and well-paid job — and so I started a business in 2020. Yep, I quit my job during a pandemic to follow my passion.
I rarely make online recommendations, but I simply could not pass up the opportunity to thank Emily Kettner Photography for capturing our wedding day. Emily’s family photos are so beautiful and I thought going into our wedding, “who actually displays wedding photos after the first few years?” Let me tell you, I WILL! Even the smallest detail is captured so beautifully it’s art and I can’t wait to share these beautiful reminders of that day with family and friends for years to come. I love, love, love these photos! Emily immortalized every raw emotion, the smiles, the tears, the stolen moments, so we can relive it every time we look through the album. All I can say is THANK YOU.
