I'm a firm believer in complimenting people. If I like something, why not say it out loud to bring a smile to someone else's face and help them recognize their own beauty. Photography allows me to tell someone how beautiful they are without using words. Honestly I think we’re all cute and quirky, and my camera helps me show others how to embrace how fearfully and wonderfully they were made by a perfect Creator. I am here to serve you, to love you, and to allow you to feel like the beautiful person you are!
I’m KAILA
So honestly I just really love getting dressed (aka likeee maybe a shopaholic..) I love putting outfits together and encouraging others to be bold and wear whatever the heck you want! During college I took a year off to earn my seamstress certification where I learned how to make my own clothes! I bought my first “real” camera so I could document the clothes I was making - I would set up a tripod in my parents yard and use a little remote to take my pictures hahah. And here I am 10 years later still doing the same thing, I actually just started a new IG account where I share my daily outfits and help shop and style others if you want to follow along!

You may not see as much of JP on social media, but he is just as big a part being the all time second shooter, photo-shopper, finance + marketing man along with a ton of other behind the scenes things! And if you’re here for weddings, he’ll be there day of with a camera in hand most likely cracking jokes and telling you random facts to keep your nerves down!
He’s hilarious + witty, incredibly smart, obsessed with animals (but afraid of frogs) and crazy talented (one of those annoying people that’s good at everything he tries). He loves to learn new things and makes everyone around him feel comfortable and loved. Oh and he’s a biggggg sports guy.
