Real jobs, real homes
Before & after
Every photograph here was taken by Kelly on the job, on her own phone. Nothing is staged and nothing is a stock image. Press After on any card to see how it finished up.

About these photos
Why they look like phone photos
Because they are. Kelly photographs jobs as she goes, in whatever light the room has, so what you see here is what the work actually looks like.
Kelly’s own camera
Taken on the day, in the room, with the furniture where the family left it. No lighting kit and no tidying up for the shot.
10 full comparisons
The camera moves a little between the two shots, because Kelly is working rather than filming. The room is the same one.
