Kaela Williams

Hey ya’ll! First off, I want to thank you for taking a chance and diving into the newborn lifestyle photography business with me!  My name is Kaela Williams, and I currently live in South Louisiana with my husband of 7.5 years and my two sweet babies (Liam & Lawson).  I love coffee, tacos, pretty light and people.  If you like those things, you will most likely love this course.  I have been in the photography business for over 10 years, but my love for photography all started with my grandma’s Polaroid at the age of three.  Once I picked that camera up, there was a little fire inside of me that has yet to burn out.  I am self taught, and spent many years doing commercial and fashion photography for bloggers and small businesses, but once I became a mom my focus switched gears. After my son was born, I fell in love with capturing all of his tiny and fleeting moments and it really changed my perspective with my photography business.  My kids are MY WHY.  I love to document those warm, connected and in-between everyday moments for my own family and my clients.
