About Kelli
My Story
I’m Kelli, the heart and lens behind Captured Moments Photography. Based in West Michigan, I’m fortunate to photograph people in some of the most beautiful places — from lakeshore dunes to tree-lined trails and cozy backyards.
For me, photography isn’t just about pictures. It’s about connection — the laughter between poses, the way a child’s hand fits perfectly in yours, the stories that unfold in a single frame.
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me exploring new spots around Michigan with my family, or chasing sunsets along the lakeshore. I find joy in everyday beauty — and that’s exactly what I bring into my sessions.
My Approach
Sessions are relaxed and comfortable — never rushed or stiff
Every gallery tells a story — not just through perfect shots, but through real moments that matter most
I focus on capturing genuine emotion and connection
Testimonials
"We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Kelli Cavasin for my son’s senior pictures! From start to finish, she made the entire process so easy and enjoyable. She took the time to get to know my son’s personality and captured him perfectly — every photo felt natural and authentic, not posed or forced. The session itself was relaxed and fun, and she had such a great eye for locations, lighting, and details. When we received the final photos, I was blown away — each image truly reflected who he is at this special moment in his life. I’m so grateful for these beautiful memories and can’t recommend Kelli Cavasin enough to any parent looking for senior pictures that feel real, timeless, and full of personality."

"5 ⭐️’s! Kelli did an amazing job of not only capturing our senior’s favorite interests, but went above and beyond for the most epic pics! We took here wake surfing on Bostwick Lake with the family, and have the best shots of him surfing with his cap & gown and huge smile! We got so many positive comments after using it for his grad party invites. What a special momento for us to treasure always! Super easy to work with and the sweetest demeanor, she truly cares. You can tell how much she loves capturing these precious moments!"

"I hired Kelli for my high school senior’s pictures. I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Kelli was so easy to work with, laid-back, professional, and was great at making my senior comfortable. My teenager isn’t a fan of having his picture taken but Kelli knew how to work with him. She captured his true essence in the photos she took. I absolutely love the finished portfolio she delivered. I’d highly recommend Kelli to capture any of your cherished moments!"

"We used Captured Moments by Kelli for my son’s senior pictures, and she did an absolutely fabulous job! We wanted something unique, and she nailed it, from his welding photos to the hockey shots, even coming out to one of his games to capture him in action. She took such special care to make him feel comfortable and confident, and the photos turned out incredible. She also did my daughter’s senior pictures this year, and they were absolutely gorgeous! Her eye for detail and ability to bring out their personalities in every shot is truly amazing. I can’t recommend her enough!"
