Get to know me!

Lifestyle Family Photographer

I’m a photographer with a passion for capturing all the special moments and memories of my favorite people — my family, friends, and even my adorable red lab! When I’m not working behind the camera, I’m helping people as a physical therapist. But when it's time to relax, you’ll find me hanging out with my amazing husband and our two sons. My happy place? The beach, of course! I try to spend every sunny summer moment I can soaking up the vibes in my hometown of Martha's Vineyard.

Through light, airy, and intimate photography, I aim to highlight the beauty of you and your family just as it is - full of love, fun, and connection.

Photography has always been a passion of mine, but it wasn't until I became a mother that my desire to become a professional family photographer truly took shape. My husband and I went through many challenges and losses on the journey to parenthood, and when we finally welcomed our first son, I realized just how precious every little moment was.

I knew I wanted to help other families capture their meaningful moments, creating memories that will last a lifetime. My goal as a photographer is to make sure every famly can look back on their photos and relive the beauty and authenticity of their unique story.

“Cayla did an amazing job yet again! This was our third session this year, and each one just gets sweeter and sweeter. She made our 5th anniversary shoot so intimate and special for us. It was a perfect evening on the beach! We can't wait for an excuse for another session.”
