Meet the photographer
I'm Amy, the photographer behind Kaya House Photography.
Based in Stamford, Connecticut, serving Fairfield County and New York City.
I photograph the action, the personalities, and the connections that make a moment yours—from the sidelines to a portrait session or a room full of people celebrating.
Building this small business is a dream, and it means everything to me. I study while my family sleeps. I edit in my car, on the road, in a parking lot, and every second in between, because I truly love creating. I create because I love telling a story.
Why I pick up the camera
I also know what it is to almost disappear from the frame.
In September 2018, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I had two little boys, a career, and a life that didn't stop, so I went on autopilot. I made just-in-case photos before my surgeries. For a long time afterward, I wanted no part of being in front of a camera. Like so many moms, I'd rather take the picture, or hide behind one of my beautiful boys.
Here's what I've learned: you deserve to exist in the photographs, too.
That's why I created Stay in the Frame—portrait sessions that give women space to celebrate themselves through every walk and stage of life, including the hard ones.
Whatever brings you in front of my camera, I want you to have photographs that feel like you.
Xx Amy
