THE EXPERIENCE

Guided from the first email
to the
last edited image.

Most people are nervous before a portrait session. That's normal, and it's exactly why the experience is designed to feel the opposite of stiff.

From helping coordinate larger family groups to gently guiding movement and connection, I take care of the details so you can simply show up and be present. No posing pressure. No guessing what to do with your hands. Just space for real moments to unfold.

Sessions are intentionally paced — unhurried, supported, and built around the people in front of the lens, not the clock.

WHO THIS IS FOR

Every season of life
deserves to be photographed.

Every Session Includes

The support that makes
the difference.

Every package comes with a full suite of preparation resources and in-session support. You don't have to figure out locations, outfits, or posing on your own.

.1 Location Guide

After booking, you’ll receive a curated guide to my favorite spots in the Chelan + Manson area—organized by ease of access, scenery, and terrain. Whether you're envisioning wildflower fields, mountain views, or lakeside stillness, I’ll help you find the perfect backdrop for your story.

2. Style Guide

Not sure what to wear? I’ve got you. Every session includes a thoughtfully crafted style guide to help you choose outfits that photograph beautifully and feel like you. From color palettes that complement the landscape to tips for coordinating without matching—this guide will help you feel confident and camera-ready.

3. Session Prep

I’ll walk you through exactly what to expect—so you can show up relaxed and ready. From timing and weather tips to how to prep kids, partners, or yourself, this support takes the guesswork out of getting great photos. Consider it your pre-session pep talk.

4. Posing Guidance

No need to worry about what to do with your hands, I’ve got you. I’ll guide you with natural prompts that bring out connection, ease, and genuine emotion. Whether you're playful or more reserved, we’ll create space for movement and stillness, laughter and quiet moments—so your photos feel like you.

5. Post-Delivery

Once your gallery is ready, you’ll receive a bonus guide with tips for selecting your favorite images to print, display, and share—plus my go-to print shops for stunning quality. Whether you're framing heirlooms or creating photo books, I’ll help you bring your images to life off the screen.

6. Upgrade Options

Love more than your included images? Additional photos are available after your gallery preview. You can also add a short cinematic film — a beautiful way to relive the emotion and movement of your session.

“Kayla is amazing! She recently did extended family photos for us when we were visiting Chelan for my dad's 75th birthday. She did a fantastic job capturing all of us at our best. Truly gorgeous photos, and she was so sweet and accommodating to work with. Would highly recommend!”
