Wholeheartedly Endorsed!
Whether painting or photography or interior decorating or whatever you threw at her, Kelly showed that she could accept the challenge and bring it to fruition. She has NEVER ceased to amaze me. I have been around for 80 years and have watched her ebb and flow with grace. I have run several businesses and have been quite successful in my life and would most heartedly endorse Kelly in her chosen profession.

Kelly Simpson was my photographer for my wedding. It was a perfect day and we were very blessed to have known Kelly from work. The photos came out beautiful and she was able to capture over 400 pictures of my family and friends. We thank you Kelly Simpson, we have so many captured memories of that special day.

We felt at ease and comfortable during the whole photoshoot and that is clear when you see the results of the photographs! We will work with Kelly again and again!
Jennifer Kalis
Realtor, Maryland (The Signing Group)Cannot Resist Her!
Kelly is a true, down to the point and an artist for her photography. She has the energy within herself and makes the event all fun and full of happiness. She did an awesome job for my daughter's wedding. One thing I like about her is that she takes unknown pictures at the spur of the moment when no one was posing and takes these fantastic pictures especially in black & white photos. Also, another thing is being far distance; she is willing to travel to make the photos a success. I also like the check off list and the discussions prior to an event so she can prep herself to make the best of it. Some of the pictures can be hilarious, imaginative and some serious as traditional poses. I do not see how anyone cannot resist her as his or her photographer. If I had to do it all over again, I still will appoint her for the assignment.

I bought Kelly's custom painting three times and it is still all worth it, It's amazing to see her artwork could make people smile hard, included my aunt and uncle when I bought them for their Christmas last year. I am definitely one of her regular customers, I'll always come back at some point. I recommend you to get a painting artwork from her, and best part is, she's also deaf and willing to communicate with you through emails or FaceTime.

FloridaThanks, Kelly!
For people who thought we could only draw stick men, to be able to create with a few explanation & demonstration that a piece of artwork ended up to look like the forest in midnight! Thanks, Kelly!

Halifax Nova ScotiaFantastic Person to Work With!
Kelly is a fantastic person to work with! Her patience was extremely high when I couldn't decide on which picture to paint for my Paint and Wine Night event. She worked with me every step of the way! I'd hire her again in a heartbeat! Wendy Wiatrowski, owner of Savvy Assistants, LLC, MD

Owner of Savvy Assistants, LLC, MDOnce in a Lifetime Opportunity
After seeing Kelly's paintings on Facebook, there are not many deaf painter/artist as talented as Ms Kelly; I have decided to have her paint a portrait of my daughter's dog Riley. It was a surprise gift for my daughter Melissa. The hardest part was to take a picture of Riley that Ms Kelly can paint from. Ms Kelly send me pictures of the draft and painting step by step to make sure that I was getting what I want. It is a beautiful job, well done by her. It was hard to keep it a secret from Melissa but she love it so much. It is hanging in our living room now. A lot of my friends gave high compliments on the painting. It is once in a lifetime opportunity to have someone so gifted and a dear friend to paint something so precious to my daughter.

CaliforniaTrue Professional!
We were absolutely thrilled with the beautiful pet portrait that Kelly Simpson did for our family. She was able to capture all of our dog's unique features that we love. But, more importantly, his personality and free spirit is deviant in the artwork! Kelly was wonderful to work with in the process. She sent us pictures of different stages of the piece, to make sure that we saw the process and also to make sure we were happy with the order. I would definitely commission Kelly again in the future for more artwork. She is a true professional with an amazing eye for color and detail!!

Kelly has painted several pieces for me. Of particular note is a wonderful depiction of my beloved cat, Buckaroo. Kelly captured his essence wonderfully and it has a special place in my home and in my heart. Thank you, Kelly!
Dawn Doucet
Calgary, AlbertaSought-out Artist
I love Kelly's energy and love for everything - always a positive attitude. Kelly definitely sees the world half full. I asked her to paint my horses. She came over and took photos and studied them. When she was finished, she capture my horses on this huge canvas. It was like my horse was right in front of me -- life size. Her studying of my horses came out in canvas -- she captures their inner soul. It was amazing how she was able to do that. Unfortunately, I don't have them any longer but I have them looking at me everyday from my wall. It makes me smile and heart swirl. I have no doubt that Kelly will not only be a successful sought-out artist but will also go down in deaf history as a talented deaf artist. Sincerely, so fortunate to have Kelly as a friend AND a collector of her work.

Albuquerque, New MexicoNever Ordinary
I received a painting of my horse, Shelby as a gift. The artist, Kelly Simpson captured the essence of my horse's kind nature. I was particularly struck with the detail of the eye. I can almost see Shelby smiling, ever so slightly. I also love the individual nuances that Kelly brings to her work, never the ordinary.

VAAmazing Piece!
Kelly painted my first "real" piece of artwork that currently hangs in my entrance way to my designer custom built home. It's a very large painting of a moose wading through the lake on an early summer morning. It's amazing piece that gets comments from every single visitor to my home. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kelly for your special signature piece that you've always wanted!!!
Doug Doucet
Halifax, Nova ScotiaHighly Recommend
I have been fortunate to have two paintings from Kelly. The first one is of our precious 17 years old dog and the second one is two horses that my daughter has known for the last 15+ years. Both paintings are considered priceless. The quality of the painting is exceptional and as a bonus Kelly is wonderful to work with she constantly communicates with you throughout the process and makes sure you are totally satisfied with the product. I would highly recommend her work.

The painting of our family dog is so life-like! It's a remembrance of a well-loved dog everyday when I glance at that painting. It is truly remarkable! Kelly captured him exactly!
