I picked up my first camera at the age of 5, and from that moment, I was in love. At 13, I got a Canon Rebel t3, and since then, there’s been no stopping me. I’ve always been drawn to love, raw emotion, connection, and the pure intimacy between two people.
I believe in celebrating the wild, untamed beauty of love and you deserve nothing less. My style is cinematic, capturing the essence of who you truly are with every scene, telling your story in a way that’s uniquely yours. Preserving the raw emotions, the deep connection, and the passion that makes your love one of a kind.
If you want to look like you stepped straight out of a Y2K movie & work with someone who’s not just a photographer, but a lifelong friend by the end of it all, I’m your girl.

Macayla’s warm, personal approach made our session effortless, even turning my camera-shy husband into a fan of the experience!
“Working with Macayla was an incredible experience. My husband and I wanted to capture our love in a way that felt real and personal, and Macayla absolutely nailed it. From the moment we met, she made us feel so comfortable, like we’d been friends for years. It was so easy to be ourselves around her! She took the time to get to know us weeks before the shoot, and made sure we felt prepared and relaxed for the day. The energy between us and her was just amazing, and it completely calmed any anxiety I had. My husband usually hates having his picture taken, but by the end of our session, he said, ‘Wow, I actually loved this!"
