From the moment she arrived, she brought the calmest, best energy you could possibly want on your wedding day. She was incredibly helpful with planning, keeping us on time, and making sure everything flowed smoothly. Throughout the entire day, she made us feel so comfortable and constantly reassured us that everything was going exactly as it should, which honestly made such a difference. One of my favorite moments is something I didn’t even know about until after the wedding. My mom told me that when she walked into the venue, the DJ had the lighting set with purple lights that completely clashed with the vision I had shared. Without causing stress or drawing attention to it, she immediately told my mom, “This isn’t the lighting and ambiance Kaelin had in her vision—it needs to be changed,” and worked with the DJ to fix it. It was handled so seamlessly that I never even knew it happened, but it made a huge impact on the final look and feel of the space. Her photography skills are absolutely amazing. The edits are beautiful, timeless, and so thoughtfully done, you can tell she looks at every single photo with incredible attention to detail. I also did a bridal portrait shoot with her, and that experience was just as wonderful. She is professional, kind, and so easy to work with, not just with her clients but with everyone she interacts with. I truly cannot recommend her enough. She goes above and beyond in every way, and we are so grateful to have had her as part of our wedding day.

Akayla was so much more than just our wedding photographer she was an essential part of our big day. She helped create our wedding timeline and made sure everything ran smoothly from start to finish. She is one of the kindest people you will ever meet and somehow managed to keep our large wedding party organized and on track through all the chaos. Akayla was incredibly organized, kept us on the same page at all times, and most importantly captured our day beautifully. We would choose her again in a heartbeat!

When I came across Akayla’s work on instagram, I knew I had to book her for our wedding day. Not only is her work beautiful and meticulous, but her calming personality made such a difference on a day that can feel overwhelming. She kept my family and me calm and collected, and even went above and beyond by creating a timeline that kept everything running smoothly. Looking back, I’m not only grateful for the stunning photos she captured, but also for the support and friendship she showed throughout the entire process. After the wedding, we truly feel like we gained a friend in her. We will always recommend her!

Working with Akayla was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. She has such a kind heart and a calming presence, which made us feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the entire process. From our engagement photos to our special day, it honestly felt like having a friend by our side who just happened to be incredibly talented with a camera. She managed to capture every moment—big and small—in the most beautiful, natural way. The candid shots took our breath away because they felt so genuine and full of emotion. When we look through our photos, we’re instantly brought back to the magic of the day, and we couldn’t be happier. We’ll cherish these photos forever, and we’re so grateful to Akayla for giving us that gift.
Jenn & Brian
From the moment I met Akayla, I knew she was the photographer for me. She made Brian and I feel so comfortable during our engagement photos, and that same warmth and ease carried through to our wedding day. When unexpected rain changed all of our carefully laid plans, Akayla went above and beyond to find beautiful new locations for our photos. She stayed calm, positive, and incredibly flexible — which made all the difference. The photos turned out absolutely stunning, and the experience felt effortless, even under the circumstances. My entire family loved her, too. She blended in so naturally, was kind to everyone, and somehow managed to capture every meaningful moment without ever feeling intrusive. We cannot wait to work with her again in the future — for maternity, newborn, and family photos. It feels so good to have found “our” photographer. Akayla is truly one of a kind, and hiring her was one of the best decisions we made!

Akayla photographed mine and my husbands engagement and ever since that night we knew we wanted her to photograph our big day. As soon as we picked our date, Akayla was the first person we contacted. Akayla is calm, confident, encouraging, and one of the nicest people we know. We got to know Akayla very well as we did multiple shoots with her and each time only got sweeter. She stays true to her schedule and her word, she is organized and always has a plan for each planning session ensuring your day will be captured exactly how you envision, and most importantly delivers beautiful work. We would trust Akayla to capture our big day 100 times over. We cannot recommend her and her beautiful work enough!

Akayla captured our small intimate wedding in OTR and it was the best choice I made. Akayla not only took on the role of photographer, but also hype girl, friend, wedding planner, organizer, and honestly the list goes on. She was communicative, detail oriented, and professional. Her eye for The perfect shot is unmatched. Her patience when working with our toddler for photos was epic. She was so kind and sweet. Her artistry is superb. I cant wait to have her take our photos again in the future. Thank you!
