Hi, I’m Kayla 🐾
The heart behind Honey & Hound Photography.
I’m a photographer based in Temecula, California, specializing in pets and families — but more than that,
I’m someone who cares deeply about preserving the moments that feel like home.
The messy ones.
The quiet ones.
The ones you don’t realize you’ll miss until they’re gone.
How This All Started
Before Honey & Hound Photography, I was known as Little Lashes Photography.
Over time, my work naturally evolved — from photographing little moments to capturing something even deeper: connection.
I found myself drawn more and more to pets curled up next to their people…
kids wrapped around their parents’ legs…
families just being themselves without trying to perform for a camera.
And I realized something important:
👉 This wasn’t just photography anymore.
It was storytelling. So Honey & Hound Photography was born — a space dedicated to real, heartfelt, joy-filled imagery of pets and families.
🐾 My Approach (What Sessions Feel Like)
If you’re nervous about being in front of the camera, you’re not alone — most people are.
That’s why my sessions are designed to feel:
-
Relaxed
-
Natural
-
Movement-based
-
Guided, but never forced
You don’t need to know what to do. I’ll gently guide you through everything while leaving space for real moments to unfold naturally.
And pets? They’re always welcome to just be themselves — zoomies, sniffs, wiggles, and all.
Why Pets + Families Matter So Much
So often, pets are part of the family story — not separate from it.
They’re there for the baby’s first steps.
They’re on the couch during movie nights.
They’re part of everyday life in a way that deserves to be remembered.
And families? You’re constantly changing, even when it doesn’t feel like it.
That’s why I do what I do. Because one day, these moments become the ones you wish you could step back into.
Where I Work
I’m based in Temecula, California, and photograph families and pets across Murrieta, Menifee, Lake Elsinore, Fallbrook, and surrounding Southern California areas. Most sessions take place outdoors during golden hour — where the light is soft, warm, and perfect for natural storytelling.
