Hi! I'm Kayla and I come from a family of nine kids. Yes, nine. Yes, all with the same father and no, I don't want a big family. I have two boys and a baby girl and I am done. *snipsnap*

My husband is in the US Air Force and 15+ years in, we've been fortunate enough to have lived in some pretty awesome places (Washington state, the Netherlands and Guam!). But San Diego will always be home home.

Having such a large family and living so far away sparked my obsession with photographing daily life (ours and yours). How else was my family supposed to watch my babies grow?

Hi there!
Can we be friends?

Having such a large family and living so far away sparked my obsession with photographing daily life (ours and yours) right after my oldest was born. How else was my family supposed to watch my babies grow?

Hi there!
Can we be friends?

Once upon a time we were told not to talk to strangers on the internet, but if I tell you a bit about me that means we're not strangers, right?

But seriously, it's 2024. If you're NOT talking to strangers on the internet, what are you even doing with your life??

My People

All 8 of my siblings!

I'm sarcastic, laid back, and optimistic
with a dash of cynicism.

I try not to take myself too seriously so I regularly look through the pictures I took when I was just starting out. And, well.... yikes on bikes.

But still, I'm so glad I have them.

It feels a little unfair that I’m able to look back through thousands upon thousands of photos from over a decade of parenting (Dang, Kayla! How old are you??) and relive moments that I would have certainly forgotten. The really cool places we've seen, the homes we've lived in, and the stupid things my kids have done.

So I've built this business up to make sure you can experience the good old days over and over again. I'll photograph your favorite memories today and then teach you how to document your everyday so you can fill in the gaps when I'm not there.

I want you to have that too.

Coffee is my love language.

Too much caffeine also gives me anxiety, but that's a risk I'm willing to take, one delicious cup of coffee at a time.

My babies were all born at home.

My mom is a homebirth midwife (she attended each of my births) and gave birth at home six times so I guess you could say it runs in the family.

03.

I could talk about birth and breastfeeding for hourssss.

I also moonlight as a lactation consultant (IBCLC) and feel like it's the other *thing* I'm supposed to be doing in life.

My To Read list is too long to finish in one lifetime.

Sorry if you're a book with less than 3.75 stars on Goodreads, I'm skipping you.

Ain't nobody got time for that!

05.

I have a BS in Psychology.

Pre-kids I wanted to get my Masters in Social Work and become a counselor. But then baby fever hit. And then I picked up a camera and now here we are.
