Creative, candid, connected

Weddings aren’t about photos; they’re about the most important connections in our lives. They’re about the moments you can’t plan but always want to remember. I’m talking about the awkward-but-cute handshakes and hugs when your fiance’s family meets yours or the jaw drop when you see your partner at your first look. And who told your sister she’s allowed to make you laugh-cry with such a thoughtful toast? Those full-heart moments stick with you the most. And you can trust they make the best photos.

If you want a photo experience that prioritizes heart over aesthetics, I’m the Oregon wedding photographer for you! My documentary approach preserves those perfectly spontaneous moments. Let’s create joyful images of your most meaningful connections.

An Oregon wedding photographer who sees your whole village alongside you

When we work together, you can expect:

  • a photographer who honors the way your community comes together. Elopements aside, weddings aren’t just about the couple. They’re about a whole web of relationships that make us who we are. Your photos should reflect that.
  • to be in the moment with your people. Did I mention that I’m interested in authentic connection, not photoshoots? That means I prioritize documentary-style photos of you in your element. Who knows? In all the laughter and happy tears, you may even forget I’m there.
  • heartfelt photos of all the little moments. Life’s milestones are made up of a million little moments – glances, smiles, touches – that are just as important in your story as the moment you say “I do.”

“From my very first conversation with her, I knew [Kayla] was going to be the right person to shoot our wedding, and she absolutely proved me right! Not only is she an extremely talented photographer, she’s the kind of person who makes everyone feel like a friend. She made our special day so much more fun, and honestly, we kind of forgot we were even being photographed – that’s how comfortable we were in front of her camera”
