My work is documentary in nature, focused on the candid, heartfelt, in-between moments that truly tell your story. I want you to feel like yourselves, surrounded by your favorite people. I’ll take care of the rest.
Capturing weddings through a distinctive lens that honors the spirit of each couple.
Does This Sound Like You?
You prioritize the people and relationships in your life over picture-perfect moments, and don’t want your wedding day to feel like a photoshoot.
You want your wedding photos to reflect your unique personality and style, not just follow a cookie-cutter shot list.
You want photos that feel like you — not like Pinterest trends.
You value authentic, candid moments captured on your special day, rather than overly staged or posed shots.
You’d rather be present to each other and your community on your wedding day, not micromanaged.
If you're nodding along,
we might be the perfect fit.
more about me
I’ve always been an observer. The in-between moments, the energy in a room, the way people show love in quiet ways. Weddings, to me, are less about the timeline and more about what happens inside of it..
On your wedding day, I’ll gently guide when needed, but for the most part, I’m there to notice what’s already unfolding. So you can stay present and trust it’s all being captured.
I’m a calm presence (with a little hype-girl energy when needed), and I care about your photos like they’re my own, something your future family will flip through one day.
Hi, I'm Kayla
Meet your photographer
I don’t follow a shot list or recreate the same photos every weekend. I pay attention to your dynamics and energy of the room - the subtle things that make your relationship yours. I'll pose when needed, but most of the time I'll step back and guide you into poses that feel natural. The result is photos that feel like you, not something you've seen on Pinterest a bunch of times.
Your Photos Won’t Look Like Everyone Else’s
Your parents, your siblings, your college friends who flew across the country - I want to know who matters most and why. I’m not there to take over the room, but I’m also not a silent outsider hiding behind a lens. By the end of the night, your people know my name. I promise it makes a difference in your photos!
A Friend Who Cares
I don’t pull you away from conversations or turn every moment into a production. Instead of structuring your entire timeline around photography, I work within the natural rhythm of your day. Collaborating with your planner, watching the light, and knowing exactly where to be. You get to actually enjoy your people, and you get photos that reflect the day as it truly unfolded.
Your Day Won't Revolve Around Photos

How it Works:
01
SEND ME A NOTE
Let’s connect to see if your date is available! You can expect to hear from me within 24-48 hours. Then we’ll hop on a call to chat details + make sure the vibes are right.
02
PLAN TOGETHER
To save your date, I just require a $1000 retainer and signed contract. Once we’re official, I’ll help with timelines, logistics, and support to make sure everything flows.
03
WEDDING DAY!
Logistics handled. I'm there. All you gotta do is show up and be present.
04
Photo Delivery
You’ll get previews within one week. Your full online gallery will be ready within 8 weeks where you can download, print and share with all your friends and family!
01. Where are you located?
I’m based in beautiful Bend, Oregon, and travel frequently for weddings across the PNW and beyond.
Then you’re in good hands. I’ll guide you when needed, but I also know when to step back and let things unfold naturally. You won’t be performing in front of the camera. Just take a deep breath, show up as your radiant self, and together we’ll find a flow that makes you feel right at home in your body.
02. What if I’m not comfortable in front of the camera?
Seriously, hire GOOD PEOPLE for your wedding. I’ve been in this industry for a long time and know lots of great folks. Once we are official, whomever you might need, I’ll play matchmaker and send you to incredible vendors who will take real good care of you.
03. Do you have any vendor recommendations?
Short answer? No. Other than helping you create a family photo list beforehand, which helps me on the day of and lets you off the hook from wrangling people for photos. The best photos happen when you’re fully present in your day, not checking off photos from a shot list. I promise!
04. Do you use shot lists?
Don’t worry, I got you. I’ll send you a guide ahead of time.
05. What should I wear for an engagement session?
You’ll receive an online gallery where you can download, share, and order prints.
06. How do I get my photos?
Like whoa. Multiple hard drives, memory cards, up in the cloud. I put your photos is multiple places. I hold onto your online gallery for a year, but you should save it in a bunch of places too!
07. Do you back up your work?
