Weddings & elopements
explore the wedding experience
Wedding photography for couples who want their day documented with beauty, honesty, and soul.
With a thoughtful blend of gentle direction and honest observation, Wren & Elm creates imagery that feels...
Because the way your wedding feels deserves to be remembered just as beautifully as the way it looked.
A Wedding Experience Rooted in
There is a tenderness to a wedding day
that cannot be manufactured.
It lives in the quiet anticipation,
the meaningful glances,
the breath before the vows.
artful , emotional & intentional
After you inquire, we’ll set up a consultation call to talk through your vision, your story, and what matters most to you.
This is more than gathering logistics. It’s about creating trust and making sure you feel fully supported throughout the process.
This includes:
• A detailed wedding guide
• Collection options
• Timeline insight
• Space to ask questions freely
Your date is held for one week after your consultation call so you can make your decision without pressure.
Connection First
When you're ready, we'll finalize your collection together and walk through your proposal, contract, and booking details!
Once your contract is signed and your retainer is paid, your date is officially reserved and the planning begins!
This is more than gathering logistics. It’s about creating trust and making sure you feel fully supported throughout the process.
This includes:
• Collection selection
• Booking call
• Contract review
• Secure online booking
• Official reservation of your wedding date!!
Making it official
Planning a wedding comes with plenty of questions, and you won't navigate them alone.
Whether you need timeline advice, vendor recommendations, or simply reassurance along the way, I'm always just an email away.
During this season you'll receive:
• Ongoing support
• Planning guidance
• Vendor recommendations
• Timeline advice
• Someone in your corner
The In-Between
Your engagement session is about so much more than beautiful photos.
It's an opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera, connect naturally with one another, and walk into your wedding day knowing exactly what to expect.
You'll leave with:
• A relaxed photography experience
• Natural posing guidance
• Beautiful images to celebrate this season
• Confidence before your wedding day
Engagement Session
As your day comes together, I'll create a custom photography timeline that allows your celebration to breathe.
Because when your day feels calm and intentional, your photographs reflect it.
Together we'll plan:
• Portrait timing
• Family photo flow
• Ceremony lighting
• Meaningful moments
• A timeline that protects your experience
Thoughtful Planning
This is where you simply get to be present.
I'll gently guide when needed, quietly fix the little things you don't notice, and step back when a moment deserves to unfold on its own.
What I'm Always watching for:
• Quiet glances
• Family connections
• Emotional moments
• Beautiful details
• The in-between memories you'll treasure most
Your Wedding Day
Within days, you'll receive sneak peeks to relive the joy while it's still fresh.
Your full gallery arrives 8-10 weeks later, carefully edited and thoughtfully curated to tell the complete story of your wedding day.
Included:
• Sneak peeks within days
• Full online gallery
• High-resolution images
• A beautifully told story from beginning to end
Sneak Peeks & Gallery Delivery
Your photographs deserve to live beyond a screen.
After gallery delivery, I'll help you transform your memories into heirloom albums and fine art prints designed to be held, revisited, and passed down for generations.
Because the most meaningful photographs aren't just viewed.
They're lived with.

Kayla was awesome to work with! She was very accommodating, great at communicating with us through the entire process
and made us feel very comfortable and confident going into our wedding day! Her professionalism and experience was apparent as she knew exactly what shots to get while at the same time allowing us to be part of the creative process. Our final photos turned out beautiful! We would highly recommend her for your photography needs.

She also takes the time to really get to know you and very thoroughly takes into account every detail. I will be going to her for more special moments!
Kayla did our wedding photos and they were breathtaking! I 1,000% recommend her for any occasion.
Emma & Jonathan
Kayla captured the most beautiful photographs for my wedding. She was so nice to work with and really took time to make sure she was capturing the details and perfect moments from that day. I will always treasure these photos and having these sweet memories to look back on!

Simply fill out my inquiry form, and I'll be in touch within 24 hours to schedule a consultation call.
After we connect, I'll hold your date for one week while you decide. Once your contract is signed and your 30% retainer is received, your date is officially reserved and we'll begin planning your celebration together.

Do you offer engagement sessions?
Can we customize a package?
Most couples book anywhere from 6–12 months in advance, especially for popular seasons and weekends. If you already have your date and know you love my work, I always recommend reaching out sooner rather than later so I can hold it for you.
That said, don’t be afraid to reach out even if your wedding is sooner than that, it never hurts to check. If I’m available, I’d absolutely love to be part of it!

Can we customize a package?
Absolutely! I'll create a photography timeline that allows your day to flow naturally, so you can feel present instead of rushed.
While I always recommend a planner or day-of coordinator for overall logistics, I'll guide every part of the timeline that impacts your photography experience.

Do you offer engagement sessions?
Can we customize a package?
Always. Most of my couples ask this before we meet.
You don’t need to know what to do…that’s my job. I’ll guide you with simple direction and movement so nothing feels stiff or awkward. The focus is on connection, not perfection.
Within a few minutes, it usually just feels like the two of you being yourselves… and I’m just there capturing it!

Can we customize a package?
Yes, always. Some of my favorite stories happen in new places, and I’m always up for an adventure.
Travel fees vary depending on location, and I’ll include everything clearly in your custom proposal so there are no surprises.

You’ll receive a small sneak peek within 3 days of your wedding (because let’s be honest, all of us are way too excited to wait ).
Your full gallery will be delivered within 8–10 weeks. Every image is thoughtfully edited to reflect your day in a way that feels true and timeless.

Yes, and I highly recommend them.
It’s such a good chance for us to get to know each other before your wedding day, and for you to get comfortable in front of the camera. By the time your wedding comes around, everything feels more natural and easy.
