The balance between intention and spontaneity

I document weddings with a deliberate eye, leaving space for the unexpected moments that give each celebration its character. With a calm, unobtrusive presence, I offer direction when it serves the moment and step back when it doesn’t.

"For the entirety of our wedding weekend, Kayla was such a soothing, calming presence, who struck the perfect balance between directing us and making sure to not interrupt the flow of things."

— LAINEY & DANIEL
"Not only did I feel incredibly comfortable with her, but I had so much fun with her all day. She captured every dream shot I hoped for and so many more that I couldn’t have even imagined. Her eye is just unreal."

— SARAH & MARSHALL
"Kayla and Max are both beyond talented, make an amazing team, and are so fun to be around. By the end of your time together you'll wish you could grab drinks with them and just hang out. We love them and are forever grateful that they were part of such a special moment in our lives!!"

— SARAH & JIMMY
"Everyone at the wedding and welcome party complimented how “invisible” they felt, while still being present to catch every single moment. The range they got from getting ready moments, to portraits, families candids, all the special parts, and the party - the whole gallery was so dynamic yet felt cohesive and gave us so many beautiful options."

— HANNAH & JULES
"Looking through our photos, we laughed, we cried, and we said “HOW did she even get that shot?!” about a dozen times. She captured the quiet moments, the chaos, the joy — everything — in a way that felt true to who we are. And her eye for light, movement, and detail is unreal. "

— MARIA & RYAN
"Kayla put both of us and all of our loved ones at such ease. Even before we received our sneak peeks, we and our families couldn't stop raving about the experience of working with her. Your photographer can have an outsized impact on your wedding -- not only will you look at these photos forever, but a good photographer can set the tone for the day. Kayla has such a relaxed and grounding presence, and our wedding simply would not have been the same without her. "

— NEHA & BEN
"Every person we’ve shared our photos and video with has said it’s the best wedding photography and videography they’ve ever seen. We are endlessly grateful to Kayla and her team and highly recommend them to anyone looking for something truly special."

— HANNAH & PETER
"Aside from being insanely talented, they are a joy to work with. Throughout our wedding day and rehearsal, they had the most lovely, grounding, and supportive energy. They expertly guided us through photos, making us feel so comfortable and at ease. And we are absolutely THRILLED with the photos - we are going to cherish these for the rest of our lives."

— MAGGIE & MYLES
"When we came across Kayla’s photos we were absolutely blown away. She has such a great feel for her couples and gets the best out of not only the environment but also the subjects of her shots. She has a calming and comforting presence that assures nervous couples that the photos from their wedding are in great hands. "

— MARINA & MIGUEL
"There were so many amazing shots of moments I missed and it was so beautiful to be able to see them in photos. She captures the day in a documentary style and her edits have an editorial flare - the perfect combo in my opinion. Our photos are everything we dreamed of and more. "

— MEREDITH & CHASE
"While I was initially worried that the wedding day photos were going to be a stressful process, Kayla’s calm demeanor radiated to me and left me calm, cool, and collected throughout the whole day! One thing I loved about Kayla was how she managed to get a photo of absolutely every moment without making me feel like there was a camera in my face all day. "

— MEGAN & COLTON
"She captured the day exactly how we remember it - overflowing with love, laughter, and pure joy. We'll forever be grateful for her calming and joyous presence on our day, and we've gotten so many compliments on how awesome she was from friends, family, and vendors."

— ANGIE & MICHAEL
"Having Kayla as our wedding photographer is the best decision we've made! She is super talented and artistic, and easy to work with. "

— NA & JOSH
"Her and her partner, Max, who shot Super8 film for us, are a dream team and felt like friends by the end of the weekend! Kayla shot our rehearsal dinner and wedding day and captured both days to perfection. We feel so lucky to have photos that perfectly encapsulated our wedding weekend to cherish for all the years to come."
