It's heart work. it's always been.
the subtle glances from across the room. a day full of the people you love celebrating the two of you. the speech your best friend gives that makes you cry. your mom's face as she watches you walk down the aisle. the less than formal family portraits. the relief of taking your heels off and putting on your tennis shoes for the reception. the song that took you forever to pick out for your first dance that feels just right. the excitement of seeing all of your people as you walk back down the aisle. your wedding party following you, cheering. hugging your parents right before you get into that getaway car. really epic dance parties. slow mornings with your family getting ready, doing everyday life. little kids running around barefoot into the backyard.
it's the moments that we feel that we hold close to our hearts. it's chaotic. it's candid. it's the in-betweens and a little bit of everything. but really it's just the moments that tug a little extra at our heartstrings.
let's do this

loved ones and those who love well, sliced wedding cake, the photos that get hung on the refrigerator door, black suits, worship during the ceremony, film photographs, the imperfect photographs, messy tables at the end of the night, crowd surfing, grandparents, outdoor receptions, dinner parties and long reception tables, moments where you're fully present with your people, getaway cars, impromptu dance parties, wedding planners (thank goodness for you), really good djs, dad and daughter first looks, first dances, last dances, those unplanned moments that end up being your favorite, welcome parties, hand drawn wedding stationery, whatever feels like you.

Hi friends, I'm Kyra. Photographer of weddings, lovers, and families. I've been a nostalgic, storytelling, people loving, go-getter since I was a kid. I really believe that my job is done best when I connect with my people and build relationships with my clients. I never want to show up to your wedding day as just another vendor or a random stranger, even if we haven't met in person before the big day. I'm here to be on your team and support you through navigating the planning process and executing your wedding day vision. I remember the day I photographed my first wedding in a little church on the outskirts of my hometown, filled with so much joy, a notebook full of ideas, a little bit of anxiety, and an overwhelming sense of assurance that I was doing what I was supposed to be doing
Over the past few years the Lord has been endlessly faithful to provide that same assurance and bring some of the best people into my life through photography. I love traveling and taking any opportunity I can to jump on a flight, I'm an avid concert-goer (I've been to too many to count), read way too many books on neuroscience and how the brain works, can often be found driving from Arkansas to Texas talking about how much I love it there, and often re-watching old episodes of New Girl or This is Us while editing. My absolute favorite part of my job is getting to really know my people and being able to document their best days in an authentic and intentional way. Most days this all still feels a lot like a dream. Thank you for being here, for reading some of my favorite stories, and for reading up on my little corner of the webspace universe.
"I will praise you, Lord, among the nations; I will sing of you among the peoples. For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth." Psalms 57:9-11

I have this strong belief that I was created to create. I am a part of one of the most emotional and important days of people's lives and I do not take that lightly. I want to walk into each wedding day and session leading with empathy and humility. I love a guided documentary focus that is centered around your love and the people you love most. I heavily rely on client relationships in order to document the day well and capture those candid fleeting moments that we all love. Your day should not be about the photos, but the photos should tell the most beautiful story of your day. I desire to work in a way that allows you to feel exactly how you felt in that moment looking back on the images - genuine and artful imagery rooted in emotion with a documentary focus. I want each of my clients to feel so well loved and supported throughout the process and like I am an old friend showing up to celebrate your wedding. I am so grateful for the brides who have extended full trust to me and have released the idea of perfect that has allowed me to create in a much more genuine and honest way.

TELL THEM YOU LOVE THEM
A NOTE FOR YOU
take a step back from the details and design just for a moment and dream with me. all of your people together, for one day in one room. the people who have changed you for the better. the ones you have created core memories with. the ones you called to tell when you found the one. soak in every single simple moment alongside them. and of course, your person. the one who is a reason you know love to be true, who instantly makes you feel safe when you walk into any room. how a silly little crush, turned into so much more, and now you’re celebrating with the people you adore. these are the moments that matter most.
