Behind the Lens

about me

I'm kailah

Two years ago I lost my grandma. It wasn't exactly sudden - but just months before she'd been told she was in remission. That summer before, we went camping with her - her favorite thing to do.




The joy and relief we all felt on that day was so palpable. My grandma never let on when she was scared, or worried - but I knew that after this second battle with breast cancer she felt so strong

And then the holidays came, but instead of joy we were met with an unbelievable revelation.





Within weeks, I watched that beautiful light inside her fade. But on one of her last days, she asked for us all for one thing: a photo. With all of us. Together.

So here I still am, with camera in hand, happy to be the keeper of memories for every family I meet.
