Hello, I'm Kaylie

Minnesota Wedding & Lifestyle Photographer

It’s truly an honor to be invited into the moments that matter most to you. My love for photography began with storytelling and a desire to preserve the fleeting, meaningful moments that define each season of life.


At the heart of my work is Ecclesiastes 3:11 — “He has made everything beautiful in its time.” This verse reflects the way I approach photography: with intention, patience, and trust in the beauty woven into everyday moments.


Whether it’s a wedding, growing family, graduation, or another meaningful season, my goal is to preserve your story honestly and thoughtfully — creating memories you can return to for years to come.

personal fun Facts about me:

I’ve started the business

in 2020… the prime COVID year. Probably not the best time to launch a business, but hey — we made it, and I wouldn’t trade the journey for anything!

Favorite season

I might be a summer baby, but my heart belongs to fall — crisp air, golden leaves, and all things autumn.

Type A or Type B?

All I got to say is that I'm a queen of color-coded chaos. Definitely a Type A, but in a fun kinda way!

My go-to camera

I started out with Nikon, but once I picked up Canon, it was love at first click — and the love affair continues!

Favorite Food

Coffee is essential; everything else is negotiable.

A weird fact....

I’m the proud (and slightly fanatic) owner of reptiles! Check out their pictures below (clearly my at-home models)!

Meet another team member

Lauryn is a longtime friend of mine and truly one of the funniest people I know. You’ve probably seen me share photos of her and her two adorable girls on social media — they were some of my very first clients when I started my photography journey.


She’s incredibly down-to-earth, thoughtful, and the kind of person who instantly makes people feel comfortable. On wedding days, she’s your built-in hype friend with a keen eye for details and a heart for helping wherever she’s needed.
