Hey! I’m Kayla.

Photographer, educator, momma of three, and multi-business owner rooted in small-town Idaho.

I wear a lot of hats, and I know what it’s like to build a business while navigating nap schedules, client work, and real life that doesn’t always fit in neat little boxes. For over a decade, I’ve photographed families, couples, and weddings across Idaho and Wyoming. Capturing connection in its most honest form. The kind of moments that are real, lived-in, and full of meaning. At the center of it all is storytelling. The quiet moments. The chaotic ones. The ones that feel like home. That’s what drew me to photography in the first place, and it’s still what anchors everything I do.

Over the years, I’ve found so much peace in creating rhythms and systems that support the work I love.

Creating rhythms, building systems, simplifying what tends to feel overwhelming. Not to chase perfection—but to make more space for what matters. Now, I come alongside other photographers to offer guidance, clarity, and accountability—especially in the messy middle. Whether that’s building an offer suite that feels aligned or putting systems in place that finally give you breathing room, I’m here to help you navigate it all with intention.

My work is rooted in storytelling and sustainability.

I believe in doing things well and doing them in a way that works for your version of success, not someone else’s highlight reel.

When I’m not serving clients or mentoring photographers...

You’ll find me navigating school pick-ups, cheering from the sidelines at baseball games, barefoot in the garden, or dancing to Fishing in the Dark with my daughter in the kitchen. Most days, I’m just trying to keep up with whatever adventure my kids dream up next—and soaking in the moments that make it all worth it.

Life moves fast.

I'm learning to slow down, stay present, and keep showing up—for my people, my work, and the version of success that actually feels like mine.
