Photos that feel like home.

Rooted in connection and guided by honesty, I approach weddings with warmth and intention — blending a documentary perspective with an editorial eye. My goal is to create a relaxed, welcoming space where couples feel at ease, enabling me to capture images that are heartfelt and full of life.

“Kayla was an absolute dream to work with. Her photos are beautiful, she's incredibly organized, and working with her was totally seamless. Her down-to-earth nature made us feel at ease and allowed us to fully embrace our day. She and her partner, Max, who shot the Super8 film for us, are a dream team and felt like friends by the end of the weekend!”
