about me

Hello there, thanks for visiting KMPhoto!
The Photography From its meager beginning in 2016, this is mostly a creative outlet that has grown a bit through the years. I'm no professional, but I do have tons of fun with all my awesome clients. Aside from a small amount of professional training, I am self-taught. My one goal is to capture your present reality in all the best ways, offering you a timeless gift to treasure for years to come. If you have any questions, you are welcome to email me at kaylenmphoto@gmail.com. |
The Photographer
My name is Kaylen Waldrep. I am a dreamer and a doer, a passionate pursuer of excellence. I enjoy life and find most of its beauty in simplicity. Traveling is a favorite, but I'm a homebody at heart.
My home has been Tulsa, Oklahoma since 2009. Prior to that, I spent several years traveling around the contiguous United States. I've been exposed to a variety of experiences and memorable opportunities, and thanks to modern technology, I can go back and relive some of those experiences through photographs. I am that person who is taking pictures of everything (the one most people think is crazy but who gets thanked later).
When I'm not behind the camera, which is most of the time, I am teaching or volunteering. I am an alumna of Northeastern State University where I received a Bachelors of Science in Education, specializing in Elementary Education Certification in the spring of 2021. Though I do find passion teaching in the classroom, my dream is to help others see themselves as they really are and fulfill their full potential, inside or outside of the classroom. I like to live life to the fullest and thrive by helping others do the same.
Stop by again real soon. The welcome mat is always out!
Because I like to know interesting details about other people, here are a few other random things about me that might help you understand me a little better and make our time together more interesting. :)
