Hello, I'm Kayla
Wedding+Lifestyle Photographer
Hi, I’m Kayla — a Central New York wedding and lifestyle photographer capturing authentic, emotion-filled moments for couples, families, and individuals.
My style is natural, warm, and storytelling-focused, blending candid moments with gentle guidance to create timeless images that feel true to you. Whether I’m documenting a wedding day, engagement, growing family, or milestone season of life, my goal is to create photographs that preserve genuine connection and meaningful memories.
I believe photography should feel relaxed and enjoyable, allowing you to be fully present while I capture the laughter, movement, emotion, and little in-between moments that make your story unique.
Based in Central New York, I offer wedding photography, couples sessions, family photography, maternity sessions, and lifestyle portraits throughout CNY and surrounding regions.
My approach
My goal is making you feel comfortable, confident, and fully present so we can create timeless, authentic photographs together.
I know being in front of the camera can feel awkward or unfamiliar — most people say that at first — which is why I gently guide you throughout the entire experience. From outfit support and session planning to natural posing and movement prompts, I’m there every step of the way to help your photos feel effortless and true to you.
My goal is to capture genuine connection, emotion, and the little in-between moments that often become the most meaningful memories.
Kind words from
Karina Smith
Such an amazing experience from start to finish. We felt so comfortable during the entire session, and everything was guided in a way that never felt forced or awkward. The photos turned out absolutely beautiful and captured our personalities perfectly. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
