Welcome!
Hi, I’m Kayla — the heart behind the lens at Kayla Marie Photography. I’m so happy you’re here.
Photography is more than just pretty pictures to me — it’s about freezing real moments, genuine connection, and the love that exists between the people you hold closest. Whether we’re out at a golden field during sunset or cozied up at home with your newborn, my goal is always the same: to create meaningful, lasting memories that feel like you.
About Me
I’m a mom of four wild and wonderful kiddos, a sports mom, and a proud chaos coordinator — so trust me when I say, I get it. I understand the beauty in the messy, the sacred in the everyday, and the power of a photo to remind us that this season, no matter how loud or busy, is worth remembering.
Photography became my outlet during a season of postpartum depression after having my oldest. It gave me purpose, peace, and a way to reconnect with myself — and now, it allows me to connect with others in the most meaningful ways.
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll probably find me on the sidelines of a football or baseball game, sipping my third iced coffee (okay… maybe fourth), cozied up with a fuzzy blanket and a book, or watching a true crime documentary after the kids go to bed.
My Editing Style
I lean into earthy tones, natural light, and soft warmth in every image I deliver. I want your photos to feel timeless — not overly filtered or trendy, but organic, honest, and rich with emotion. Think true-to-life color with a little extra warmth, golden glows, and soft textures that wrap your story in beauty.
More Than Just a Pose
While I’ll gently guide you through your session, I focus less on stiff poses and more on genuine interaction. Expect to laugh, snuggle, play, or even dance. I’m there to capture the way your little one wraps their arms around your neck, the way your partner looks at you when you’re not paying attention, and those quiet in-between moments you didn’t know you needed.
This is a space where real life is celebrated. Where we lean into the chaos and beauty of family. Where your story matters — and where I’m honored to help you tell it. This business is my heart, and I’m so grateful you’re here. Let’s create something beautiful together.
Welcome to the Kayla Marie Photography family. I can’t wait to meet you!
With love,
Kayla
