I’m Kalahan, a Moses Lake photographer with over 16 years of experience documenting families and wedding days shaped by connection and tradition. My work is centered on family life—how stories are built, shared, and passed down through generations. From everyday family sessions to wedding days surrounded by loved ones, I approach each with the same intention: to document people as they are, in a way that honors both the present moment and the legacy it becomes.

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above…”
James 1:17


Meet Kalahan

Moses Lake Family, Senior, & Wedding PhotograpHEr serving Eastern Washington

Being a mama has shaped the way I photograph in very practical ways. I understand short attention spans, quick windows for smiles, and the rhythm of working with small children. I know when to move efficiently, when to pause, and when a moment needs a little extra patience—whether that’s giving a toddler time to warm up, adjusting expectations on the fly, or stepping back to allow a newborn to be nursed. That same approach carries into wedding days. I come prepared, attentive, and calm—never there to dictate the day, but to serve it. I’m mindful of family dynamics, timelines, and the natural flow of the day, stepping in with gentle direction when needed and stepping back when a moment simply needs to unfold. Years of photographing families have taught me that the best images come from trust, flexibility, and truly understanding people as they are in this season of life. That perspective guides every session and every wedding I photograph.

My Heart

Motherhood has shaped every part of who I am, and it directly shapes the way I work behind the camera. I understand how full these seasons are, how quickly they move, and how much they ask of us. That understanding informs the way I photograph families and wedding days alike. I’m attentive to the moments that happen between the posed images—the way hands reach for one another, the familiarity between parents and children, and the bonds that are being built over time. These details tell the story of a family far more honestly than perfection ever could. My work is intentional and rooted in gratitude, because I believe life and family are gifts from the Lord. I photograph through the lens of motherhood, with a deep respect for legacy and responsibility, and with the understanding that it is by the grace of Christ that we are entrusted with these seasons at all.

I’ve always admired Kalahan & Sean’s work but I never booked with them for some reason.. My biggest mistake was wasting money on a billion other photographers. It’s only going to be Kalahan & Sean from now on. Like I mentioned before we went through a lot of photographers, they always made me feel awkward, ‘hard to pose’, uncomfortable. Kalahan is the opposite of that! Her posing is so easy & she makes the shoot so much fun.  At the session we were running late, a hot mess express & had a typical two-year old!  You wouldn’t be able to tell from the photos she just sent me. SO: book with them & you won’t regret it. Worth every penny!

the Brashler family

Kalahan has been taking our family pictures for over 5 years. She makes the process so flawless. She has learned each of our personalities so well and knows when she is capturing a persons true self. There was one photo shoot that I was sure a few children may have messed up every picture. Nope! Kalahan was able to capture us at just the right moments to make sure we all looked great. She is fast at getting our pictures back to us once edited and I just love the amount of light and brightness that comes through. Kalahan has great skills and a loving heart and I highly recommend her for your next family photo shoot.

the Peterson family

Kalahan did an amazing job capturing our family! She came prepared and knew just how to keep our 6-month-old and 2-year-old engaged, no small task! Her kindness and easygoing nature made it easy for us to relax, smile, and enjoy the experience together. If you’re looking for the right photographer to capture your family, you’ve found her. We recommend her wholeheartedly!

The Klopov family

Kalahan has taken family pictures for us on a number of occasions. We usually have the toughest time taking pictures with our four children but Kalahan knew exactly how to make it interesting for them and keep them engaged for the whole session. She is so friendly. Her love for photography is evident by the fun environment she creates during the sessions and, of course, by how wonderfully she is able to capture the perfect moments in photo. She will always be my first, and hopefully, only choice for all of my photography needs.

The anderson Family

Kalahan is so sweet and professional and we have loved every single photo she’s taken of our family over the past few years. We couldn’t recommend her more! She’s also done the weddings of my brother and sister and the photos turned out exceptional!

The Francis Family

Where do I even begin? Kalahan did our newborn + family photos and I highly recommend her. She is professional, talented, timely, personable, and SO great with kids. We have 3 kids under age 2 and she brought some calm into our chaos with her easygoing and cheerful personality. She was also prompt with her editing and clear in her communicating. 10/10 would work with her again. Thank you Kalahan!
