Everyone deserves to have a wedding day surrounded by the people you love most in this life. Indoor or outdoor, rain or shine -- I would love to document every moment, every detail, and especially your "I Do's." 

I want to be your biggest hype woman all day long, while documenting your incredible love story (and the following celebration). Let's make some memories and cheers to you on one of the best days of your life. 

These are our people -- the ones we choose and the ones we are born loving. The reason we breath and the reason we want to pull out hair out -- family is irreplaceable and the memories we savor are priceless. 
Intentionally choosing to document the highs, the lows, and everything in between is where I come in. From game nights to graduations, family reunions and Alaskan family vacations -- there's no shortage of moments to celebrate. But you don't need a reason other than wanting to freeze a moment in time. Let's capture those memories together.

After the session, elopement or wedding I will go through E-V-E-R-Y photo taken. I will select the best of the best & dive into editing. You will receive a full gallery -- no minimums or maximums here. These are your memories and I want you to have every memory from your wedding or session.

1. How Many images will i receive?

Frequently Asked Questions

Let me say it loud for you: This is YOUR SESSION so you can wear whatever you want! For weddings or elopements, a traditional gown is white but feel free to shake it up from the norm. I am happy to make recommendations for local dress rentals or websites for less expensive, but still gorgeous, dresses and gowns. 
For a portrait session, we will work together to coordinate outfits depending on the season.

2. What should I wear for my elopement?

My regular working area is from Palmer to Girdwood, and everywhere in between. For locations further north (Denali National Park) or further south (Soldotna, Homer, Hope, Seward) there is a .50 per mile travel fee. 
For travel outside of Alaska, this will be determined on a case by case basis.

3. What are your travel fees?

In Alaska, the weather is constantly changing. The best we can do is prepare for it and them embrace it. Ultimately it will add to the memories of your session or wedding day. There are situations where I will consider postponing the session, especially during winter months. 

4. What happens if the weather is bad?

I have extensive experience as an event planner and coordinator. I have networked and have an incredible network of florists, caterers, bakers, and adventure tours I'd love to share with you. We can work together to determine a timeline, tour, and vendors that will match your wedding-day vision.

5. Do you offer coordination services for weddings and elopements?

"100000/10 recommend Kyla...

Kyla was AMAZING! She was and is the actual best. She helped me every step of the way, helping my plan and figure things out even better than I could ever do on my own. She always went above and beyond through this whole process, and made the stress of our elopement virtually non-existent. She was an absolute joy to work with, I could not have asked for a better photographer! 100000/10 recommend Kyla at Bore Tide Photography! She is the real deal!"

"more than just a photographer...

Kyla was more than just a photographer. She offered to help in so many ways and even helped me find a hair stylist. She was always in communication with us to talk about our plans for the ceremony and ideas for any specific pictures we wanted to take. Not to mention the pictures turned out BEAUTIFUL. We couldn't have asked for a better experience or more perfect pictures to capture this special moment for us."

"I love love love the moody vibe, the poses, the angles, the background, everything!

Kyla was amazing! It also felt like I was talking to a friend. I would ask her for recommendations or her opinions with the outfits I had chosen, and the ideas I had in mind for the photoshoot. During the photoshoot she was the one posing us so no need to worry about how you need to pose! Kyla will be able to help with that! She also asked us if we had a specific pose in mind that we would love to have and I did! And she was able to take the exact picture I was wanting.

When the photos got delivered to me OMG I was obsessed with them! I love love love the moody vibe, the poses, the angles, the background, everything! Definitely highly recommend!!!

"she is always going above and BEYOND!

Kyla did both our engagement and wedding shoots, and let me tell you she is always going above and BEYOND! This girl ran her butt off to make sure that our wedding photos were magical, and captured every little detail."

"She will listen and hear you out and the results will be exactly what you are looking for

I was looking for a good photographer for a long time. Also, I am very picky when it comes to pictures. I didn't want my pictures to have too much editing where our skin looked fake or our poses would be standing and fake-smiling at the camera. I wanted my pictures to be alive and where we could have some interaction with each other. Kyla was awesome!!! She guided us in what we should wear and how to pose where we felt comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. I already had ideas of how I wanted the pictures to be and Kyla gave her own input and opinion which helped turn those ideas into reality. It turned out even better than I imagined. She will listen and hear you out and the results will be exactly what you are looking for. I recommend Kyla and definitely will be using her services in the future!!!"
