Happy Father's Day!

(I think all my followers are moms, so you can pass on the sentiment 😀)

Moms—it’s my delight to document you.

I hope it’s not weird to say, but I often feel like I know you better than you know me. We might spend an hour together in the field, but then I spend many more in my office choosing and editing your photos—truly seeing the quiet, honest ways light and colors show on your faces as you laugh or snuggle your children close.

You grow them, you hold them, you show them the world, and you teach them to love.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms I’ve had the joy of getting to know through my lens... and to those of you I hope to find in my frame in the seasons to come! 🤍

Summer just beckons for storytelling of the fun, relaxed days or grand adventures. Here are my ideas and location opportunities within Colorado. (I might have a few more mountain options once my family figures out our camping schedule so let me know if you are interested in that.)

If you aren't in Colorado and want to catch me on my own travels - locations are on my website.

DM me if you'd like to get on the schedule for the next few months or discuss a different idea. (I love documenting really specific ideas!!)

And yes, it feels ironic to be talking about summer while it's currently snowing in COS... But it's relevant to the timing of opportunity #1 and in typical Colorado fashion it will be 80 next week.

This not-so-little girl certainly knows the routine for a perfect "up."

​Flying, then a pinned snuggle, then kid energy fully let loose. 🕊️🌀

I am quickly realizing there are so many reasons why wearing is so conducive to beautiful motherhood photos.

Here are the first two:

​The eye peeks are just the best. Littles typically don’t stay still enough outside for close-ups to be this crisp—but when they are snuggly, they are often curious enough to just stare down the lens.

​And then, they fall asleep. Usually, a nap or nap needing crankiness would be tough in an outdoor session, or at least stressful for mom, but when they’re worn, it’s just a transition to another beautiful moment worth documenting.

​If this makes sense to you, follow along for more reasons! Even if you aren’t local to the Rockies, Still & Wild is a wandering project, and I might be traveling your way soon.

If you found me through the babywearing world—welcome. 👋

​I’m Kiana. In my day-to-day, I’m mostly focused on exploring and learning alongside my own children. Photography is my creative exhale (after years of technical work) where I’m focused on documenting motherhood, beautifully.

​I want to take real memories—everything from a slow morning at home to the grit of a mountain trail—and turn them into art. I’m leaning into "wearing" as a focus because that physical closeness is the perfect foundation for the emotive images I want to create. It works so well for moms both to give them a comfortable focus and to record something that was central to this stage of life.

​I’m based in Colorado but I love traveling and documenting mamas in new landscapes. I’ll share more about travel session opportunities as they come up!

​Say hi in the comments! I’d love to know which carrier feels most 'you'? Mine is a very snuggly, worn-in blue woven meh dai.

On a recent trip to California, I knew I wanted to capture motherhood in the dramatic beauty of wildflower season + coastside cliffs + the beach.
Not knowing any moms there, I reached out to a babywearing group—that snuggly connection is my favorite thing to document—and this mama and her family showed up to help create some stunning shots that were everything I dreamed of.
The wildflowers are definitely showing off in these! Stay tuned for more of the ocean and the beach bluffs soon.

Spring hits different when it's your first time.

What was your child's reaction to the texture of grass?

"Milestones" don't just come as cake smashes or posed moments, it can be even more memorable to capture these delightful little firsts - the ones that are small but so real. Anytime you want a baby/child focused session I'll focus on catching their real play and small wonderful moments.
