About
We’ve photographed over 2500 weddings in Southern California since 1982 and are referred by some of the nicest wedding and special event venues in Orange County. Although we mainly photograph weddings in Orange County, CA we also accept destination wedding assignments. We have 50 to 75 weddings posted online at any given time. Please call or email us with the information about your wedding and reception. We will get back to you promptly and see if we have have any weddings or special events currently posted of your same venue(s) to view online. Plus, we will be happy to arrange a free consultation appointment with you and your fiance. In the meantime, please take a look at the Weddings page on our web site to see our 50/50 traditional/candid photo style.

Thanks,
Jerry Kelly, Owner

Jerry Kelly is a fun, likable and professional photographer. He is always looking for "That Special Shot". His clients always speak highly of him, and I enjoy working with him also.
Jerry is a wonderful photogrpher. I have seen many images that reflect his creative nature. I would use Jerry for my own events and know that I am in good hands.
For any couple reading this: I am Reverend Michael and I have Officiated over a few thousand Wedding Ceremonies and therefore I have worked with hundreds of Wedding Photographers. There a are a handful of Orange County Wedding photographers that are excellent as to quality, personality and the ability to think outside the box, but Jerry is among the cream of the crop. You would be extremely remiss in not at least talking to Jerry before you decide on a photographer. Each couple we have worked for have raved about Jerry and could not be more pleased. If you wish to know more, feel free to contact me at ReverendMichael@ReverendMichael.com http://www.ReverendMichael.com. Rev. Michael
We have worked with Kelly Photo Video at several events and are constantly impressed with their professionalism, and creativity. We would highly recommend them to any bride to be.
Jerry is a great guy, and a great photographer. As a videographer, I always like to work with someone who has good energy, a good rapport with the client, and does good work. Jerry is one of those photographers!
