explore the experience
- You want photographs that make you feel.
- You appreciate some direction, but more so the freedom to be candid and live in the moment.
- You value the details, both big and small.
- You want an easygoing and comfortable experience.
- You want a balance of both editorial and documentary style photographs.
HERE'S THE deal. I THINK WE'LL GET ALONG great IF...
I'm the friend who always says, "Wait, let me take a picture!" during what seems like the simplest moments. But I'm also the friend who holds all of the memories, who can tell the story of when and why each photo was taken. Being that friend, despite the insane amount of photos I have stored in my phone, is what I live for.
AT HEART, I AM A STORYTELLER WHO FELL IN LOVE WITH THE art of documenting life as it happens.
I HAVE THE best JOB
CREATING ART THAT HIGHLIGHTS THE moment, EMPHASIZES connection, AND ENHANCES your story

It should be about indulgence, laughter, and those cute little unscripted exchanges that happen when you're surrounded by loved ones. The luxury of being yourself, celebrating life, and reveling in the joy of each moment. That's where the best art is made.
At the core of my approach is the belief that luxury SHOULDN'T be stiff and formal.
REDEFINING luxury WITH A relaxed TOUCH
My goal is to serve you with so much more than just pretty photos, but with photos that make you feel exactly how you did the moment they were taken.
LET'S DO THIS TOGETHER

My husband and I had our elopement photoshoot done by Cayla and she was absolutely phenomenal. Her communication was prompt and she was extremely easy going. She went out of her way to meet me at the site a week prior to look around the location for good photo spots. The day of the event, she made us both feel relaxed and comfortable resulting in amazing photos that really captured who we are. Highly recommend.
"SHE WAS ABSOLUTELY phenomenal."
Becca + Graeme
I HATE getting my picture taken but my husband LOVES photos so for his birthday I agreed to do a couples session with Cayla. She was INCREDIBLE. She made us both feel so comfortable and at ease. She had us laughing and she captured us so naturally and candidly. The locations she chose were stunning. We love our pictures so much and it was such a fun memory. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who wants a fun, casual, comfortable and beautiful photo experience. Amazing!!
"WOW—I CAN'T recommend CAYLA enough."
Makayla + Devin
We chose Cayla for her laid back style and ability to capture the rawness and genuine moments in a natural space. We were awkwardly laughing off the nervousness of not being sure what we wanted in our maternity photos at first, but by the end of our session, it felt calm and natural... She was willing to navigate new ways to get photos of us in a space she had never shot in before to give us the perfect photos as expectant parents to hold onto forever!
"CAYLA MADE US FEEL calm AND natural."
Alexis + Aaron
I cannot recommend and rave about Cayla enough to anyone and everyone. She truly is a master behind the camera and has a work of art with her photos and I am so so happy that I was able to find her and have her be part of some of our big moments.
"CAYLA MADE OUR dream FOR OUR PICTURES COME true."
Maili + Shane
She helped us so much with looking for a location, especially because we have never been to TN before. She answered all of my questions and helped me capture the amazing memories that I get to look back on. I would recommend her to anyone!! Love love love Cayla!
