New York based photographer, screenwriter, graphic-designer and model Kaitlyn Mikayla infuses her work with retro vibes, endless summer feelings and glossy portrayal of youth.
“I’ve always had a camera on me since I was a kid. But it took film school and a brief modeling stint in NYC before I thought, I can really do this! Through modeling, I was able to learn firsthand how photographers work, which lenses they use and how they direct their subject. I’ve always been a visual artist, so adding fashion photographer to my wheelhouse was bound to happen and I’m so glad it did.” she tells about her beginning.
“There’s so much I want to capture in my work, I feel sometimes I miss the boat on it completely. I’m really fueled by cinematic imagery, but also feel that emotion and empowering women is so important. I hope to push my work more in the empowering direction this year. I’m still trying to find my way as a photographer though, so that’s been a fun challenge.”
