Meet Kayleigh Marie Maes

AKA KAY • CEO & Photographer

Kay grew up between the mountains of Northern New Mexico and the city streets of Albuquerque, carrying with her a deep love for this land and its people. She and her husband now live in the East Mountains with their two pups, where they’re creating a sweet little life. With over a decade of experience in photography and film, Kay has always been passionate about capturing the essence of people, especially women, through empowering, cinematic portraiture. With a background in both health & wellness and media arts, she loves weaving the two together in her work with the women of Lune. Equal parts mountain dreamer and city soul, Kay brings a warm, intentional, and creative spirit to everything she does.

Meet Taylor Ann Stiff

AKA TAY • Photographer & Owner of Alma by Lune

Tay was born in Las Vegas, New Mexico, and made Albuquerque her home in high school. She’s all about people, community, and connection, and that love shines through in her photography. When she’s not behind the camera (or keeping smiles bright as a dental hygienist), she’s a wife and pet mom to four: two standard poodles, Wrigley and Ruby, and two cats, June and Ollie. Tay and her husband are North Valley enthusiasts who can usually be spotted strolling the bosque. A self-proclaimed long conversationalist (thank her Scorpio moon for that), she’s drawn to creating raw, dreamy, and beautiful images… very on-brand for her Libra sun.

  • "[Lune] truly sees the beauty in everyone and is able to express that beauty in the most wonderful way. Through her lens, she shows her clients that they themselves are art. Being in front of the camera can feel so vulnerable, but Kayleigh makes you feel as if you are safe in your vulnerability. She uses that in her work to create incredibly loving and authentic photos."

  • "I had the absolute best experience with my maternity boudoir photo shoot! From start to finish, it was so much fun. The team was incredible to work with—warm, professional, and great with communication. I was definitely a little nervous going into it since I had never done a photo shoot like this before, but they immediately made me feel confident, comfortable, and truly beautiful. They gave amazing direction with posing, which made the whole process feel natural and empowering. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. If you’re considering a maternity boudoir shoot, I would 10/10 recommend working with them. You’ll walk away feeling celebrated, radiant, and so glad you did it!"

  • "I cannot express enough how amazing my experience with Lune Photography was! Kay is an incredibly talented photographer, and the experience of taking boudoir photos with her made me feel relaxed, beautiful and powerful. It was such a fun day on top of getting amazing images as a result - I left feeling amazing. Getting my hair done for the shoot as well as Kay's EXCELLENT customer service was definitely a cherry on top. I highly recommend using her services, especially if this is something you've always wanted to try but feel a little shy or nervous about it! I promise she will make you feel at ease and capture amazing pictures to boot!"
