When Erik and I got engaged, we knew there were three things most important to us for our wedding; the perfect dress for me, to be surrounded by faces and hearts we love, and to have a high quality photographer to capture the beauty and essence of the day. All three were perfect, especially hiring D&W.
Since I was little I would pour over my parents and grandparents wedding photos, carefully studying every detail. Photos are more than just a memento, they are the best kind of heirloom and it fills me with so much happiness that we will get to share these memories with our children and our grandchildren someday through Kayla’s meticulous work. Kayla is truly an artist, and she cares so much about every detail because she understands how important every moment of the day is. We cannot imagine our day without her guiding us through everything from the chaotic family photos to the quiet intimate ones with just the two of us as the sun went down.
Kayla captured some of my favorite photos of my husband and I. We are passionate about the earth and going to some of the raddest places, and she was so willing and eager to come alongside us and photograph us exactly how we would be, even if she wasn't there. The messy, laughter and little nose kisses. It all got captured, and I'm so thankful to have that moment forever now.
I would hire Kayla 100 times again, and love the friendship that her and her husband gave to us. We spent time after our session eating, laughing and drinking beers. I'll never forget this experience.
Kayla is amazing! We are from out of state so I had A LOT of questions and concerns and Kayla called me 2 different times to answer all my questions and put my mind at ease. The day of the wedding she came early to check out the venue and get everything ready. The entire day she was so easy going and fun to work with - we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer! Not to mention the photos turned out AMAZING. A few months later and I am still trying to go through them and pick my favorites to hang in our home, there are just so many. Such a sweet and talented photographer.
My husband and I took one year anniversary photos with Kayla in Rocky Mountain National Park and absolutely fell in love with everything about Kayla and Devoted and Wild! She was so sweet and made us feel like instant friends. My husband hates getting photos done but even he got comfortable in front of the camera because she makes it so relaxed and fun! Her photos are to die for and we will cherish them forever!!
Kayla is the best! She’s so friendly and so easy going when shooting. She made my husband & I feel so comfortable. Not only was she easy to work with but the quality of photos we received was amazing. Her prints are up in our home right now! HIGHLY recommend Kayla! We’ve worked with a few photographers and she is by far one of the easiest to communicate with, so organized and professional!
