Kelley Norcia Photography - Clinton, Connecticut

Kelley was amazing. Very detail oriented, kind, and funny. I feel very awkward in front of a lens and she made the entire process comforting and her space very inviting. I appreciated how she frequently checked in with me, offered pointers on how to improve the “impression” I was going for. All around, phenomenal, professional, and high quality wok. Her final product was also timely. I hope to go back to her soon for my branding session.

I had such a lovely experience with Kelley and her hair and makeup artist, Traci, during our recent headshot photo session. Her studio was professional and welcoming, filled with all the props and tools needed to produce beautiful photos. This was my first professional photo shoot and I will definitely be back again. Kelley and Traci were both professional and personable... I feel like I left the shoot with new friends! I highly recommend this team.

Kelley and her team is great. She works hard to understand your personality and bring it to life. Her team does wonders with wardrobe, hair, make-up, etc such that your pictures reveal your best, authentic self. While I had an amazing time, they were so professional, that I was finished all my poses within 2 hours.

Our firm went to Kelley's studio for headshots and had a fantastic experience. From prep information, to hair and makeup, to posing, every detail was taken care of and everyone felt so at ease (even those of us who get very nervous about photos!). We couldn't have been more pleased with the results and cannot recommend Kelley and her hair and makeup artist Traci enough. Thank you!

Had the best experience working with Kelley on my professional headshots. It started with a glam session with Traci, which was fun and relaxing and got me in a great mood to take photos. My make-up came out really nice, pretty and professional. I looked like the best version of myself, which is what I wanted.

Before we started, both Traci and Kelley asked me questions about the look I was going for to make sure they understood the context of how I was using the photos. They helped me pick out the right wardrobe from the clothes I brought. They have a great eye for fashion; the outfit I liked the best was surprisingly the one they pieced together for me using different elements of the outfits I brought.

Kelley knows exactly how to guide you to get great photos. You can tell she has a lot of experience and she takes her time with every client. I had so many great photos to choose from— it was hard to narrow it down!

Luckily, her prices are reasonable when you consider everything you’re getting, so I was able to get a few different options. Now I have some really beautiful headshots that I can use for the next 5+ years. It’s totally worth the investment!!

What an incredible experience!!! I LOATHE having my picture taken and don’t consider myself photogenic, but Kelley is just magic. I couldn’t be happier with my pictures - and the shoot was a blast! Traci (hair/makeup) is so talented and will work with you on a look you’re thrilled with. I particularly recommend a session to women who are entering midlife and maybe not feeling themselves, or women who have just battled a health event or another life changing experience. Kelley and Traci will make you look like the very best version of you - not someone else. Thank you Kelley & Traci for the gift of feeling like myself for the first time in a while 🙂 That blue frilly dress is just EVERYTHING!!!!! lol

My boudoir shoot was truly a life-changing experience. Kelley captured exactly what I envisioned—elegant, intimate, playful, and edgy—and gave me the space to express myself in ways I never have before. As I stood in front of the camera, I saw myself through a new lens, feeling more confident, beautiful, and empowered with every pose she guided me through. It wasn’t just about the photos—it was about embracing myself fully, flaws and all, and celebrating the woman I am.

I had sent Kelley a mismatched Pinterest board full of ideas, and she brought them to life perfectly. And in the midst of all the excitement, Kelley worked so quickly to send the proofs, ensuring I’d have the album in time to give to my fiancé as a surprise on our wedding day.

Tracie was nothing short of amazing. She helped me embody every look I wanted, and I felt like the best version of myself. I was so impressed with her talent that I immediately hired her to do my hair and makeup for my bridal shower. Both Kelley and Tracie are more than just talented—they are warm, kind, and made the entire experience feel deeply personal and special.

This shoot wasn’t just about creating beautiful photos; it was about rediscovering myself and feeling a sense of empowerment I never knew I needed. I’ve never felt more confident or more beautiful in my own skin. I cannot recommend this experience enough for anyone who wants to celebrate themselves. It’s a gift not only for your partner but for yourself.

I usually am very very shy. But when I arrived Kelley greeted me as if we’d known each other. Traci did the makeup session and we chatted like old friends. I would say the session felt like college friends getting ready for a night out. It took a few minutes to find myself comfort in front of the camera but within 5 minutes it was just so fun and empowering ! If you’re thinking about it. DO IT!!!! You won’t regret it. I wanted to don’t for my 60th birthday. I’m now 61 and a half and it’s done. Bravo me!!
