I'M HERE

The mere thought of booking a family session can sometimes evoke a unique blend of excitement and stress. I recognize that the traditional approach of posed family photography often falls short in capturing the authentic connections and true personalities that make your family unique. The pressure to present a picture-perfect image, coupled with the unpredictability of coordinating everyone's schedules and moods, can add an unexpected layer of stress. Here at Kayla Mae Co. I embrace the beautiful chaos that is family life, offering a refreshing alternative to conventional sessions. My goal is not just to capture moments but to provide an experience that celebrates the real, unfiltered beauty of your family story

I’LL GUIDE YOU FROM BEGINNING TO END

IMAGINE A FAM SESSION THATS GENUINE..

SO … how does it work?

chaos wrangler and de - grumpifier of dads 

As your dedicated storyteller, out time spent will not be wasted with staged poses, we will capture the genuine essence of your family dynamics. A family session with me is not just about photographs; it's an experience where the narrative unfolds naturally. Picture the soft glow of sunset as your family gathers in a scenic location, laughter echoing through the air. I believe in creating an environment where your unique story can breathe, allowing genuine interactions and heartfelt moments to take center stage. There are no forced smiles or contrived poses; instead, I become an unobtrusive observer, capturing the beauty of your connections—the shared glances, the playful banter, and the quiet moments that define your family bond. And even the grumpiest dads are laughing and playing by the end of the session.
