What makes me so passionate about photography
As a child, I didn’t have baby photos to look back on, the youngest photo I have is when I was 3 or 4 years old. Now, with only a handful of photos with my parents, and my mom's passing in 2020, I feel the weight of what’s missing. Those photos I don’t have can never be replaced, and that ache is something I don’t want for any other family. I’m here to make sure you don’t miss out on capturing the moments that matter most.
Why Choosing the Right Photographer Matters for Your Family
As a parent, I know that time with your family feels like it's flying by. My goal as a photographer is to make your experience not only easy and stress-free, but also fun and memorable. When you book a session with me, it’s not just about getting photos—it’s about capturing the real, precious moments that make your family unique.
Absolutely love the photos of our newborn! She did so amazing with our daughter and return time of photos was perfect. So happy to have these memories of our daughter

Child-led, Family Focused Photography
My approach to photography is simple: let your family be themselves while I handle the rest. Whether we’re at your favorite outdoor spot or in the comfort of your home, I use gentle prompts to capture natural moments that highlight your kids’ personalities and your family’s love.
You don’t need to worry about perfect poses or keeping everyone smiling—I’ve got that covered. I follow your children’s energy, making the session relaxed and fun. Whether they’re exploring a field or cozying up at home, I create a comfortable environment where everyone can just be themselves, allowing you to focus on enjoying the moment while I capture genuine memories that will last a lifetime.

Kayla is the sweetest and most amazing photographer! She was so patient with my little one and my pup, she had the best suggestions on location, poses, props, etc. while also allowing space for us to just be in our natural state, capturing us as we just spent time together and open to any suggestions/ideas of our own. We had a fun time with her. AND the photos, blown away by how amazing they turned out!

A Little About Me
As a mom of two, I get how fast time passes with your children, and that’s why I’m passionate about preserving those fleeting moments. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll often find me hiking, camping, or exploring the outdoors with my kids. I love showing them what nature can do for you—how it grounds you, inspires you, and brings you together. That connection with nature is something I try to bring into my work as well, especially during outdoor sessions.
Working with Kayla was so easy, fun, and relaxed! My one year old daughter loved the whole experience and I absolutely LOVED the pictures! I highly recommend her!
