“Laila was the perfect choice for our wedding day. She brings so much care, intention, and artistry to her work. From start to finish, she was a joy to work with. Warm, professional, and deeply thoughtful. She captured our vision beautifully and helped us embrace every moment, even the unexpected rain. If you’re looking for timeless, heartfelt photos to cherish forever, Laila is the one.”

Hey there, I’m Laila, Seattle-based portraitist

When I began experimenting with 35mm film photography in high school more than ten years ago, the people in my life quickly became my favorite subjects to photograph, blossoming a love for portraiture

Comparing to digital photography, film’s manual depth and gorgeous grain immortalizes special moments with a timeless look and feel

I take pride centering nature in my work; my admiration and knowledge of local plants create beautiful, unique, and perfectly-timed portrait backdrops year-round

Sessions start at $200 for 45 minutes and 15 final photos
