This is the real thing.

My focus is on the in between moments. The stolen kisses, quick glances, touches of comfort, and loud laughter followed by genuine smiles. While of course I’ll pose and direct throughout the session, my focus will be on those authentic moments because you deserve a gallery full of them.

Hi, Friend! 
I'm Kaylee.

meet me

Kaylee has been amazing each and every moment, since the very first time we met with her. We fell in love in with not only her photography style, but also her personality. Every step along the way she has been so great in meeting out wants and needs. During our wedding day she went above and beyond to take away the worries that we had and WOW did she do a great job capturing our now favorite memories. We could not be more thankful for Thistle & Roots and we will recommend her over and over again!

"We couldn't be more thankful"

I freaking love when you love what I do.

Kaylee was so supportive in the vision we had and made it a reality. She was impressive, stunningly professional, and just an overall delight during our session. She did so much more than just take our pictures... she left us with an energy that will spark every time we look at these photos. I am tearing up just typing this because these photos and memories are everything we wanted and so much more.

Choosing the right photographer can be sooo difficult. Finding Kaylee has been so incredible. She is so kind, creative and really listens to your vision. I have loved every session that I’ve done with Kaylee and look forward to doing many more! I mean… the photos speak for themselves. Her work is incredible and we’re so lucky to have found her!

Kaylee is honestly the best photographer i’ve come across!! She puts so much effort into her work and it shows because her art is INCREDIBLE!! She photographed my wedding and I couldn’t be happier with how the pictures turned out! I cannot stop looking at them and i’ve gotten so many compliments on how good they look!! Kaylee captured us and our wedding so perfectly, I am over the moon! 

"I am over the moon!"
