Photos that feel like you. 

Charleston, SC relaxed, story-driven photography for families, newborns, brands, and the moments that matter most.

Hello! I'm Kayla Rochelle. 

A photographer focused on capturing people, stories, and celebrations in a way that feels natural and refined.


I bring a mix of structure and flexibility to every session, enough direction to feel confident, with plenty of room for personality.


The experience is easy, and the memories are meant to be lived with.


You show up, I’ll take it from there.
