I’m Tex Kelly—a Humboldt County-based photographer, videographer, and creative director with a passion for capturing moments that matter. With over 2 million followers (twice over) and more than 1 billion views across my content, I’ve built a brand rooted in storytelling, humor, and authenticity. But beyond the numbers, my true purpose is creating visuals that make people feel something—whether it’s the magic of a wedding day, the intensity of a championship game, or the essence of a growing brand.

My journey has been anything but ordinary. From playing quarterback in high school and college, to launching restaurants from San Diego to Humboldt County, to building brands and making viral content with my dad—including becoming the second Deadpool online—I’ve lived a life full of story-worthy experiences. These moments have shaped my creative style: a blend of cinematic visuals, strategic thinking, and genuine connection.

Today, I specialize in cinematic wedding films, high-energy sports videography, and branding content that drives results. I work with couples, businesses, creators, and athletes throughout Humboldt, Mendocino, and Del Norte Counties—including Eureka, Arcata, McKinleyville, Fortuna, Ferndale, and Trinidad—to elevate their visual storytelling and help them stand out in a crowded digital world.
