Hi, I'm kayla.

When I mentioned to my dad that I would be shooting a Clyde Iron Works wedding, he was particularly interested and slightly confused.  “Clyde Iron Works? I haven’t heard that name in forever! Seriously? People get married there?” See, my dad was born and partially raised in Duluth’s west end. His memories of the city […]

Ross and Kristina’s historic Duluth summer wedding day included all the things a Zenith City ceremony would promise. There were breweries, old buildings, and the lake. Oh, the lake.  Many elements bring people to Duluth, but not as much of a draw as Lake Superior. For many, all it takes on a tour of the […]

Bluefin Bay is located along the rocky, iconic shores of Lake Superior. It calls Tofte, Minnesota, home, and serves as a refuge for anyone looking to make a break north. Behind the hillside guesthouses, one will find Tofte Cove, a little inlet where guests and tuck away down near the lake to watch the sunset […]

When one goes into education, there are so many variables that will come into play. Where will my first district be? What will I be teaching first? How many preps will I have? But sometimes, that randomness, can lead to something bigger in life. This randomness is what Iowa raised and trained Elsbeth north of […]

I do not know of a single person who does not instantly fall in love with Lake Superior. Seriously. It is so moving, it is a top destination for weddings year round–even in the winter (which a true testament to how much we love this lake). Yes, many couples say “I do” next to the […]

It was a sweet gesture from the officiant, who gently pulled a small travel pack of Kleenex out of the inside pocket of his suit coat. He is always certain to have them, just in case. “Thanks,” Crystal stated as she brushed them away. “But James is probably going to need those more than I […]

We Minnesotans, we tend to blame Mother Nature. A lot. For a lot of sometimes contradictory things. When it is too cold, too hot, too rainy, too dry–you name it, we blame her. She cannot catch a break. That can’t be totally our fault, however; she gave us such a gorgeous environment, can we really […]

Sometimes the best plan is no plan at all. No matter how solid of a Plan A or Plan B, sometimes you just need Plan C (how it goes). They let everything go, and just let each piece of their day be unknown, unexpected, and more than welcomed. This was the thought behind Faith and […]

I have always felt that Duluth’s greatest stories would be told by her historic walls. Speckling the hillside, from west to east, are all these vintage structures, original to the Zenith City they call home. Their styles as unique as their original owners, their stories all a part of not only Duluth’s, but in many […]

By night on my bed I sought him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not. I will rise now, and go about the city in the streets, and in the broad ways I will seek him whom my soul loveth: I sought him, but I found him not. The watchmen […]
