FIRST - if you have a wedding booked with me, a prepaid session, a valid gift certificate, or I’ve already reached out to you about getting your 2027 session on my books… PLEASE DON’T FREAK OUT. 🤎
Your session is still happening. Your plans are still safe. I am honoring every commitment I’ve already made.
Now that we’ve gotten that out of the way…
About a month ago, I shared that I was planning for 2027 to be the closing chapter of Kennedy Rae Photography.
After a lot of thought, I’ve realized that I’m ready to close this chapter a little sooner than I originally planned.
Kennedy Rae Photography will officially close its books for good on November 1st, 2026.
I know this is sooner than I originally announced, but after sitting with the decision, I know it’s the right one for me and for my family.
This does not mean I’m cancelling anything that has already been booked or paid for.
🤎 Already-booked weddings are happening.
🤎 Prepaid sessions are happening.
🤎 Valid gift certificates will still be honored.
🤎 Sessions that needed to be rescheduled will still happen.
🤎 The 2027 clients I have already personally reached out to about getting on my calendar are still being booked.
Everything I have already committed to will be honored.
But after November 1st, I will no longer be accepting new bookings.
Which means if you've been thinking about booking with me for 2027…
NOW is your last chance. 🤎 I am only accepting a FEW sessions.
If you've been wanting a maternity session, couples session, senior session, or simply one last opportunity to get in front of my camera, you need to book before November 1st.
✨sessions will need take place May-October 2027, and once my books close, there will be no more new 2027 bookings.
I know I originally said I would continue taking a limited number of sessions through 2027, but I've realized that I'm ready to step away sooner rather than later. Sometimes you make a plan, live with it for a while, and realize that your heart is asking for something different.
Nine years of Kennedy Rae Photography has been such an incredible chapter of my life. I am endlessly grateful for every person who has trusted me with their memories - the pregnancies, babies, families, seniors, couples, milestones, and all of the little moments in between.
I don't take any of it for granted.
So this is not goodbye to the people who are already on my calendar. I still have beautiful things to look forward to with you. 🤎
But it is goodbye to taking on anything new.
November 1st, 2026 - my books officially close.
If you want to be part of my final year, now is the time. 🤎
