100/10 recommend Kya!! She is super sweet, fun and kind, but absolutely the best photographer we could’ve asked for!! She was so helpful and made our day go so smoothly. We had a second shooter along with Kya, Paige, who was also AMAZING!! So so grateful we found Kya and recommend her a thousand times over!!

I had the opportunity to work alongside Kya Martin Photography as a second shooter, and she was absolutely wonderful to work with! Kya is professional, organized, kind, and makes the wedding day flow so naturally. She communicates clearly while still creating such a relaxed and enjoyable environment for both her couples and everyone working alongside her.
As another photographer, I truly appreciated how easy she was to collaborate with and how much care she puts into her couples and their wedding day. I would absolutely recommend Kya to anyone looking for a photographer, and I would happily work alongside her again!

Thanks to recommendations from couples on The Knot
Your wedding day should feel like you — joyful, meaningful, and completely present.
I’m Kya, a Pennsylvania wedding photographer who specializes in capturing genuine moments with a soft, timeless, and romantic style. My goal is to help you feel comfortable and cared for so your photos reflect real emotion, not stiff poses.
From the quiet moments of getting ready to the celebration on the dance floor, I’m there to document your day as it naturally unfolds — while gently guiding you when needed.
I believe marriage is a beautiful gift from God, and it’s an honor to preserve the beginning of your story with images you’ll treasure for generations.

I’m a mama of 3 beautiful kids, and married! I have been with my husband for 11 years and married for almost 2 years. I have a massive heart for the art world. I love binge watching tv shows, and love dystopian movies/books. I love sci-fi/war movies and dark romance books. Capturing photos of beautiful moments is what I love to do!

We hired Kya for our wedding this past weekend, and it was one of the best decisions we made. Her communication leading up to the event was clear and organized, which made planning...
so much easier.
On the wedding day, she was punctual, professional, and incredibly efficient while still making everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. Kya captured both the big moments and the small, meaningful details that made our day special.
If you’re considering booking Kya — do it. Her talent, calm presence, and attention to detail truly set her apart.

I highly recommend Kya if you need a professional photographer for your wedding day. She did a fantastic job of capturing all the special little moments of our big day and she real...
ly made sure to to work with us, getting all of our picture requests with time to spare. She was fun, personable, and was very flexible the day of our wedding. She worked hard, getting pictures of all the guests despite the chaos of working with our big crazy families. All the pictures turned out beautifully. Pricing was also very reasonable (much more affordable than others we'd consulted!). If we were to do it all again we'd choose Kya.

This is something I don’t usually do, however, I truly felt that Kya Martin is SO deserving of a review!
I’ve seen many of her photos and from the verbal comments from so many, I a...
ctually referred her to a friend that was getting married. My friend booked her for her wedding after meeting her.
The wedding was so lovely and I saw first hand Kya doing what she does so well! I’m pleased to say that everyone in the wedding and those that attended, did nothing but compliment her on how professional, unique, helpful, caring and kind she was throughout the whole day!
When we all got a peak at several of the wedding photos everyone said the same thing!! “These are fabulous!! What an awesome photographer she is!!”
I would recommend Kya to anyone planning a wedding! She did a fantastic job and everyone just loved her personality!

We have used Kya Martin Photography twice now for our family pictures. Kya is always friendly, professional, and the pictures come out beautiful! She has a lot of great pose/ prop ...
ideas of her own, but also lets my daughters do whatever silly poses they want to include. Her pricing is on point with other photographers in the area, and feel the pricing is more than fair for the products that are delivered! We will continue to use Kya Martin Photography for our future family pictures!
