I'm Kayla, the photographer behind KayRod Photography—a creative photographer serving Portland, Oregon and the PNW. I specialize in moody, cinematic and editorial photography for couples, portraits, seniors and anyone looking for something a little outside the ordinary. My sessions are less about perfect poses and more about storytelling, movement, real connection and creating photos that feel like you.
Kathy is a powerhouse with every photoshoot, ensuring everything runs smoothly from start to finish. From capturing candid behind-the-scenes moments to managing communications, she keeps the magic flowing effortlessly. Living in Gresham with her two young boys, Kathy brings warmth, organization, and laughter to every session. A true anime lover and foodie, she adds fun and energy to the team, making every shoot an unforgettable experience.

Two complete strangers. One photoshoot. Zero expectations.
What started as a creative idea turned into one of my favorite experiences—capturing genuine connection and reminding people that magic can happen when we step outside our comfort zones.
