"I have done several photoshoots with Mikayla. Her editing style is clean, natural and timeless without feeling overly filtered. She brings out the natural light and makes the photos look beautiful. I cannot wait for my engagement pictures:)) if you’re looking for someone to take your photos I would highly recommend Mikayla to take yours!!"

Megan + matthew

"Mikayla was amazing to work with! Our outdoor kindergarten grad photo shoot got rained out, but she was so flexible and worked around our busy schedule to reschedule. My daughter was nervous at first, but Mikayla made the whole experience fun and relaxing. The photos turned out beautiful. We couldn’t be happier and are already looking forward to booking our full family session."

Cassie

"Obsessed is an understatement!!! My time during the session was so easy, light hearted and simply so fun! And when it comes to the pictures they are so greatly edited and the time it took to get my pics back I was amazed!! Mikayla had super good communication thought out this entire process!!! Along with that her prices are very reasonable!! I love everything about my pics!!"
