"These are the first photos I’ve had done while babywearing, and they mean so much to me. It’s so special to have this season documented so beautifully... I was absolutely blown away. My jaw actually dropped and there were happy tears, too." — Katie

There is a specific kind of stillness found in the middle of motherhood's wildness. It's the weight of them against your chest, the rhythm of shared breathing, all while you have the freedom to roam.


Whether it's the intricate weave of a hand-loomed wrap or the effortless elegance of the most simple ring sling, babywearing is more than a tool - it's a season of life. My lifestyle babywearing sessions are deigned to capture that intimate bond in its most honest form.

Safety & Styling Matters

Session Details

T.I.C.K.S. Standard Aware: As a babywearing-focused photographer, and a mom with a lot of hours of spent wearing myself, I prioritize your baby’s safety and comfort. I understand the importance of a deep seat, visible airways, and ergonomic positioning.


Choosing & Styling: Let’s be real—if you’re here, you probably have a 'collection' (no judgment, I totally get it!). While I’m not a master of every single intricate wrap style, I know exactly how to make a carrier look editorial against a landscape.

We can document your all-time favorite heirloom, or I can help you pick the one from your stash that perfectly complements the colors of our location. I even have a few curated loaners available if you're looking for a specific vibe, though I always want you to use whatever your baby is most comfortable and settled in.


Editorial Meets Documentary: We won’t just stand and smile. We’ll hike the trails of Colorado Springs, frolic on the California beach, or document the quiet chaos of your morning routine—all while your little one is tucked safely against you.


"Kiana gave helpful advice on what colors photograph best and even helped me choose which baby carrier would look best once she saw our outfits. She found creative ways to engage my toddler so she could capture the sweetest smiles." - Katie

Where 'Still & Wild' Wanders Next


While my heart is rooted in the foothills of Colorado Springs, I love bringing the Still & Wild lens to new landscapes. There is something deeply poetic about documenting the bond of babywearing, not just between baby and mom, but between moms, across the babywearing community, around the world.


Whether I’m traveling for a dedicated 'Pop-Up' weekend or stacking a few sessions onto a personal family trip, I’d love to meet you where you are.
