Hello! I want to take a minute to introduce myself. I am Kellie Llewellyn and owner of Kellie Rochelle Photography. I am the middle child in a family of 5, with an older brother and a younger sister. I grew up in Williston, ND, and I still live here. Most days, I can be found […]

There is exactly one item in our monthly family budget that I will fight tooth and nail to maintain. I’ll go without my weekly Mega Latte runs or going to eat if I have to, but I am not giving up my most favorite budgeting splurge.   What is it, you ask?  Our housecleaners. The sweet, sweet […]

After spending all of my adult life as a working mother, I transitioned to a stay-at-home mom when I was pregnant with my 6th child, Max.

This year, with all the chaos going on in the world around us, something changed in me. For some reason, a frantic feeling crept up on me as I watched my kids growing older. Time is fleeting, and I realized that I was desperately going to miss all the tender moments with my kids.

This realization hit me like a ton of bricks, so lately, I have picked random days to throw on a dress and call my mom to come get pictures of us. I quit worrying about losing some weight and waiting for the perfect time or outfit, and I savored the moments and the opportunity to turn them into everlasting memories. And you know what, these are some of my favorite pictures!
