We had the pleasure of working with Kayla for our wedding, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. When we initially took engagement photos with her, she made u...
s feel comfortable in front of the camera, even while taking photos on the busy streets of NYC - no small feat as my husband and I were initially quite nervous! Kayla is not only incredibly talented, but also has such a calming, genuine, and fun presence that made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. Leading up to the wedding, her communication was clear, responsive, and thoughtful, which gave us so much peace of mind. On the wedding day itself, we felt completely confident knowing Kayla was there capturing it all. We’re so in love with the previews we received less than 48 hours after the wedding. Her style is the perfect mix of beautiful posed shots and incredible candid moments, and she made every photo look so natural and stunning. We’re beyond grateful for everything she did!
Highly, highly recommend Kayla! The way she uses light and color is absolutely stunning. It was her idea to take sunset photos on our wedding day and they turned out absolutely bea...
utiful. She is also super responsive, sweet, and incredibly patient. I was a bit of a bridezilla when it came to the photos and she went above and beyond to make sure they were exactly what I wanted (and more!). My husband and I are both pretty awkward and not photogenic when being photographed and with her guidance we were able to look natural in our photos (that is not the norm!). Also, between the two of us we have a huge family and she was able to corral everyone and get us the different group shots we wanted super quickly on the day of the wedding. I am obsessed with our photos. You won’t go wrong with choosing Kayla!
Kayla's photography style is so nostalgic and romantic. In addition to being so unbelievably friendly, she is organized and efficient. She was always available to answer my questio...
ns leading up to the wedding, especially timeline questions. The day of the wedding went so smoothly, and portraits went so quickly that we were able to enjoy our cocktail hour, even without a first look. Don't hesitate to hire Kayla - I'll be using her again in the future!
I truly cannot find the words to express how talented Kayla and her husband Mario are. Kayla first photographed our engagement shoot and our pictures came out better than we could ...
have ever imagined. Then, she was extremely reassuring and flexible when we had to postpone our wedding from April to August. Kayla is extremely positive and down to earth. After smoothly transitioning to our new date, Kayla and Mario were AMAZING on our wedding day and made sure they captured every special moment. Kayla was calm and made sure the entire day went smoothly. She even made sure to tell me to take a few deep breaths from time to time and enjoy each moment. We are still over the moon at the sneak peek pictures she shared with us and cannot stop looking at them. We can’t wait to see the rest of our wedding photos and treasure them forever. I am already looking forward to seeing Kayla again in November when she photographs my sisters wedding.
We flew all the way from Israel to get officially married in the states, after we preformed our ceremony back home.
As the time arrived, we looked for someone special with an eye f...
or special and memorable shots that would walk with us throughout Manhattan and would create something beautiful for our special day.
Kayla was the one we fell in love with her style and her heart already back home and even more once we met her. we will defiantly recommend her from who ever is looking for taking a memorable day and turn it into something we can always look back and enjoy it.
Kayla was our wedding photographer. She did such a fantastic job capturing all of our moments. Before the wedding, we had a quick meeting to discuss the vision. She took such amazi...
ng shots without us even noticing . After looking at all of our photos, my husband's exact words were, "Kayla is some kind of witch! How can she take such beautiful photos". I agree with him, we are not the most photogenic people out there, and Kayla made us feel super comfortable and guided us through some of the poses and they all look great. I definitely recommend her!
I was not one of those little girls who dreamt of my Prince Charming and wedding! So I definitely didn’t really have a vision for what I wanted my wedding photos to look like. But ...
our wedding was a day to remember and Kayla captured it perfectly! Choosing Kayla to be our photographer was one of the best decisions we made on our special day! She guided us through the staged photos and captured the most amazing candid photos that we will cherish forever! We felt completely comfortable with her and will definitely use her again for other significant moments in our life!!!
Finding The photography for my wedding was definitely the most stressful part of the entire process for me. I wanted my photos to be just perfect, but not cost an arm and a leg. I ...
was so excited when a different photographer I couldn’t afford recommended Kayla. Kayla worked with us on cost, and gives a good amount of hours of coverage. She made us feel very comfortable, and we ended up looking very natural which is what I wanted! Her style is so soft and romantic. She also wasn’t a stickler on timing the way other photographers were, (most start to charge even if you go over time by ten minutes!) Our engagement sessions lasted as long as we needed it to to get the perfect shots and she never rushed us. Her husband now second shoots for her, and he is also super nice and very professional. She sent us our sneak peeks for our engagement session the next day, and we got them all within the week. We also got our wedding photo sneak peek within a few days which is amazing. I can’t recommend her enough.
Kayla is super easy and fun to work with! I'm a very awkward person, but you wouldn't be able to tell! I couldn't imagine my big day without her. She photographed both my engagemen...
t and wedding. Even with my strange request from throwing leaves to playing soccer, she executed the shots perfectly! She captured every moment, and I get to relive my wedding over and over. So many great shots it's hard to find a favorite! She does a great job mixing color and black and white shots. Very professional and she has a great turn around time! I can't wait for her to capture my next big moments in life! Don't look any further, book her now before it's too late!
Really loved her as a person and the photos came out BETTER THAN I COULD HAVE IMAGINED! I love that bright, happy, light style and I’m so glad Kayla was there to capture every angl...
e of the most important day of my life (not to mention the skinniest day of my life lol). Thanks so much!!!!
I found Kayla on Instagram and immediately loved her aesthetic. Working with her for our engagement shoot and wedding day was a pleasure, as not only is she a masterful photographe...
r, but she has a way of putting someone as awkward in front of the camera as myself at complete ease.
She captures these amazing moments that make you go back and think, "Wow! Is that really me?" She also goes the extra mile; like for our wedding she stayed a little longer just to capture the dancing at the end of the night. I really appreciated how she made sure we got some of those shots as well.
I highly recommend Kayla. She's an artist behind the lens and a joy to work with. My husband and I can't wait to contact her to photograph the next big moments in our lives, like a maternity shoot. ;)
Kayla is incredible! She did our engagement shoot and wedding photography and she did a wonderful job capturing the joy and beautiful memories! She was super accommodating and b us...
feel comfortable and natural when we would pose. I recommend her to everyone now!
What words do you have when you’re literally left speechless? Kayla photographed our Dumbo, Brooklyn wedding on a perfect July summer day in 2017 and to this day I still look back ...
at our pictures and feel like it had to be a dream. Not only did she capture our new love but also very convincingly our ‘Garden of Eden’ theme. What I loved most about her is that it’s like she’s not even there! What I mean is - she didn’t smother us or pose us in unnaturally ‘us’ poses but instead allowed us to just soak-in our new married love and, very professionally, gave us gentle yet very necessary direction. Just imagine your best friend as your wedding day photographer - that’s exactly how it is with her! She will let you do what you do but will also let you know when it’s just ‘not working’ in the most kindest-best-friendest-way possible. Aside from, of course, loving my husband, I would have another wedding hoo-rah in a heartbeat if it means I get to hang out with my best friend Kayla behind the lens. Punctuality, professionalism and pizzazz! In all seriousness, your actual best friend might get jealous.
Kayla is the absolute best! We had a huge backyard wedding with 250 of our closet friends and family, and Kayla captured the most amazing moments. She was incredibly patient with o...
ur huge families, and made the day go by smoothly. We were in love with all of our wedding photos, as well as our engagements. We couldn't recommend Kayla enough!
Working with Kayla was a dream! When my husband and I got married, we were looking for a photographer that could capture those small, sweet moments and she did just that. We were i...
mpressed by her attention to detail and her gentle coaching. Kayla took our engagement photos as well as our wedding photos- they came out beautifully. Thank you Kayla!!
Wow..Kayla is a gem. Weddings can be stressful but her calm confidence in her craft made me relaxed on my big day. She is clear in her communication and direction to achieve her vi...
sion. But my favorite part is that she promoted me in my natural state. She captured what was real. LOVE HER and would book her again and again.
Absolutely amazing ! Kayla shot both my engagement and wedding photos. The pictures were beyond anything I could have imagined. Kayla was very professional, patient, and punctual ...
for both shots. She really knows how to capture the very essence of the couple and the event. She is efficient in editing and sending the photos to you. My husband and I are very grateful to have entrusted her with our very special day. I would recommend her to anyone for photography.
I love Kayla! She took my engagement and wedding photos. Everything looks so beautiful and natural. I would definitely hire again. Thanks so much!
