Motherhood Photographer


Preserving the moments we wish we could slow down - because motherhood and children never stop - let me help you freeze time one session at a time.

More than just photographs.

I understand how much the relationships in your family mean to you—and how quickly these seasons of life seem to pass. That's why I don't want to photograph what your family looks like. I want to capture how it feels to be together.

My sessions are relaxed, connection-focused, and centered around the people you love. There’s room for movement, laughter, cuddles, a little chaos, and all the little things that make your family yours. You don't have to worry about everyone sitting perfectly and smiling at the camera. I'll guide you when you need it and let the moments unfold when they don't.

My hope is that whether you're looking through these photographs tomorrow or a decade from now, you'll remember more than a smile, but the way your little one reached for you or the way your family laughed together, and just how much you loved this season of your life.

Because the photographs that matter most aren't always the perfect ones. They're the ones that bring you right back in time.

"Kayla took both our maternity and newborn photos, and they turned out wonderfully! She was so easy to work with and her communications with us were always extremely timely and very professional. She made the photo environment very relaxed. On the evening of our beach maternity shoot, there was a storm approaching; so, she worked quickly to take our photos before everyone got wet! I was impressed with how amazing the photos were! I would definitely recommend Kayla and would use her again for more family photos!"
