This week we will be touring the studio of Keri Holcombe of Keri Kay Photography. Keri is a newborn and baby photographer located 35 miles south of Nashville, Tennessee in Spring Hill. Her style can be described as timeless, clean, artistic and fun. Keri has a Bachelor of Science degree in Photography and is a mother to two beautiful children, ages 4 and 5.
How did you become a photographer?
As cliché as it sounds, I’ve always loved photography. I really honed in on it in college and earned a bachelor’s degree in Photography from Middle Tennessee State University in 2003. After school, I worked on expanding and building my portfolio (and working up some serious courage) for a couple of years before starting my business.

Do you use natural light or studio light in your studio?
I use studio light most of the time. Natural light on occasion.
How long did it take to build/finish your studio space?
All I had to do was move in, so it only took a couple of days to paint and get organized.

How would you describe your studio space?
Functional and cozy, shabby chic and full of charm.

Did you have a certain vision in mind when creating your space?
I wanted my shooting room to be cozy, yet functional. I wanted my waiting room to be peaceful and pretty with only black and white images on the walls.

What is your favorite thing about your studio space? I love that the
building is over 200 years old… with creaking, sloping floors… it has a lot of history, which makes it very charming.
