JOYFUL FAMILY & PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHY

Located in the heart of Bay Area California

Hey! I’m Kylee Howard, the heart behind GratitudesMedia. I’ve been capturing stories through my lens for years, and what I love most is helping people see the beauty in their own moments. I know what it feels like to be on both sides of the camera - planning the perfect day, wrangling family members for photos, and just wanting everything to feel real. That’s why I focus on creating a space where you can relax, be yourself, and let your story unfold naturally.

Before diving into photography full-time, I spent years working in ministry and media, leading teams and creating content that connects people. That background taught me how to stay calm in the chaos, bring out genuine emotion, and make every person feel seen. Whether I’m capturing, your growing family, your exciting seasons, or just the simple in-between moments, I’ll be right there cheering you on every step of the way.
