Experience
Working with Kayla
From start to finish, my goal is for your photo session to be an experience — not just “standing there wondering what to do with your hands” for an hour 😄
The kind of experience where you show up a little nervous, maybe saying “I’m so awkward in photos,” and leave thinking, “wait… that was actually really fun.” Where you’re laughing more than posing, and forgetting halfway through that a camera is even there.
I’ll guide you through everything — outfit help, easy direction, natural posing, and little prompts so nothing ever feels stiff or forced. You don’t have to know what to do (that’s literally my job), you just get to show up, be yourself, and hang out with your people.
And when you get your photos back, I want you to remember more than just how they looked — I want you to remember the jokes, the movement, the real laughs, and the fact that it didn’t feel like a photoshoot at all… just a really good time that happened to be photographed.

FAQ
01. How do we book you for the wedding or Lifestyle shoot?
Booking is simple — just click the “Book Now” button for lifestyle sessions to get started, or head over to my Contact page to reach out directly.
You can also message me through Instagram or Facebook if that’s easier! From there, we’ll chat a bit, get to know each other, and make sure we’re a great fit for the kind of images you’re envisioning. I truly believe the best photos come from a comfortable connection, so this step is really just about making sure we’re aligned before anything is finalized.
For weddings, please reach out directly through the Contact section to inquire about pricing and availability. Every wedding is a little different depending on location, timeline, coverage needs, and vision, so I prefer to create custom options that best fit your day.
02. Do you travel for destination weddings?
Yes! I love traveling and exploring new places to photograph.
While I’m based in Central New York, I do travel for weddings and would be honored to document your day, whether it’s local or in a new destination. Depending on the location, I may also offer significant discounts just to photograph your amazing day.
Travel fees may apply depending on distance, but I’m always happy to chat details and create something that works for both of us.
03. How do you handle family photos on the wedding day?
Ideally, family members are informed ahead of time about when and where they’ll be photographed so we can create a simple, organized plan for family photos. This helps take the stress off the bride and groom so they’re not trying to track people down or guess who’s next.
Before the wedding, we can also create a family photo list and timeline so everyone knows what’s happening and things can move smoothly and efficiently.
On the wedding day, I’ll help guide the process as much as possible — gathering family members, giving direction, and making sure everyone is in the right place at the right time. My goal is to keep things relaxed, organized, and quick so we can capture all those important family moments without pulling you away from enjoying your day for too long.
04. Do you offer engagement sessions?
YES!! I always include engagement sessions with my wedding packages.
This is such an important part of the experience because it gives us the chance to get to know each other before your wedding day and helps you feel so much more comfortable in front of the camera. Most couples come in saying, “we’re awkward in photos,” and leave realizing it’s actually really fun and easy once we get into a rhythm together.
Your engagement session also helps you get familiar with my shooting style, how I guide posing, and what to expect on your wedding day — so when the big day arrives, everything feels natural and effortless instead of new or overwhelming.
It’s honestly one of my favorite parts of the whole process because it builds connection, trust, and confidence, which leads to the most authentic, relaxed, and beautiful wedding photos possible.
