Mj Kielczewski

My name is Mj

I am a passionate and dedicated photographer whose lens captures not just images, but stories, emotions, and moments frozen in time. My love for photography goes beyond the technical aspects and a job; it's a deep appreciation for the art of storytelling through visuals. With a keen eye for detail and a knack for putting people at ease, I excel at capturing stunning portraits of individuals. My work is a celebration of individuality, your essence, and authenticity. I want to help you make a larger impact in this world through your work or your legacy.

Our Story

Dave and Teri by Whispering Valley Photography

Hello there! I'm Mj, a professional photographer and image creator dedicated to transforming brands and empowering individuals. With over a decade of experience in front and behind the camera and a passion for capturing the essence of my clients, I aim to reveal the beauty within and create lasting memories.

​

Partnered with my amazing husband, Paul, whose expertise as Key Grip ensures seamless setups and efficient shoots, we're a dynamic duo committed to making magic happen. We believe that every photograph holds a moment in time that deserves to be cherished and revisited.

​

My photography journey began in my youth, evolving into a profound source of mental health support. Transitioning from behind the lens to being in front of it and back, I empathize with the fears and uncertainties that accompany facing a camera. Having experienced both empowerment and discomfort, I am driven to provide others with the affirming and respectful photography experiences they deserve. Infusing love into every aspect of my work, I aim to make a meaningful impact by crafting headshots and branding photos that leave lasting impressions, portraits that reveal inner radiance, and fine art pieces that are not only a creative outlet but they also delve into the depths of mental health struggles, offering therapeutic release in a safe and nurturing environment. 

Let's seize the opportunity to capture your precious moments and make a difference together. By booking a consultation with us, not only are you supporting a local business, but you're also contributing to meaningful initiatives that impact lives. Join us on this extraordinary journey to create memories that will last a lifetime.

More Than Just A Photoshoot

Matted Prints by Whispering Valley Photography

Leave behind a visual imprint of your life for future generations

    Imagine for a moment, the cherished memories captured in those frames that adorn our walls, the smiles frozen in time, the milestones etched in silver halide or pixels. These photographs aren't just snapshots; they're portals to our past, guardians of our stories, and beacons of our shared humanity.

​

  In every faded print and digital image lies a treasure trove of narratives waiting to be unveiled. They tell the tales of our ancestors, the struggles they endured, the triumphs they celebrated. Through these images, we can trace the threads of our lineage, discovering the roots from which we've sprung and the legacy we're destined to carry forward.

    But beyond personal histories, photographs serve as mirrors reflecting the soul of our societies. They capture the zeitgeist of an era—the fashions, the trends, the social movements shaping our collective consciousness. They're windows into worlds long gone, reminding us of where we've been and illuminating the path to where we're headed.

        And let's not forget the intangible yet invaluable gifts photographs bestow upon us: the sense of belonging, the bond between generations, the bridge that spans time and distance. In curating our photographic legacies, we're not just preserving memories; we're weaving the fabric of our identity, connecting past, present, and future in a tapestry of shared experiences.
