A little introduction, for those who are new here🤍

I’m Kendall Ryals, founder and creative behind The Ryals Edit. I’m 23 years old, married to my high school sweetheart, and someone who has always found joy in capturing life’s moments, both big and small.

I launched The Ryals Edit in January with no idea what to expect, but a whole lot of excitement for what it could become. What started as a creative outlet quickly became an opportunity to do something I genuinely love. Since then, I’ve been blessed with the chance to work at so many weddings and special events, meet wonderful people, and document moments that deserve to be remembered.

Creativity has always come naturally to me. Whether it was constantly reaching for my phone to capture something random, noticing the smallest details, or finding inspiration through social media, I’ve always loved the art of documenting life. Building a business around that passion has been one of the most rewarding parts of this year.

Outside of The Ryals Edit, I’m also a Pilates instructor, teaching throughout the week. Movement, creativity, and connection are all things I value, and I love that I get to incorporate those passions into different parts of my everyday life.

I’m so thankful for every client, every opportunity, and every person who has supported this journey so far. What a special thing it is to turn something you’ve always loved into something you get to share with others.

For the celebrations you’re dreaming up and the moments worth remembering, I’d love to help tell your story. Let’s create something special together.

Thank you SO much for being here🤍

Hi!!! I know I have been a lil MIA on hereeeee but it’s because I have been so lucky with how busy 2026 has been !!!! 🥹

This was my biggest year yet with weddings & couples, and being welcomed into people’s lives for such personal, important milestones is something I don’t take lightly!! I’ve gotten to witness SO many moments that I know I’ll remember forever, and it really is an honor to be trusted to document it all 💗

And now fall + winter have filled up with family, maternity, newborn, and other lifestyles sessions and I have been LOVINGGGG this season too!!! I ADORE getting to play with the kiddos and trying to channel a little bit of their childlike wonder while we’re shooting 😇

My 2026 calendar is pretty much booked solid at this point, and I’m taking on fewer weddings in 2027, so if you’ve considered reaching out to chat and see if I might be a good fit for whatever you’re planning, this is your sign ❗️ I might still be able to make a few things work before the end of the year depending on the date, and 2027 books are open!!

Very very grateful for everyone who has let me into their world for a little bit :’) by @stuffbybai

When the light hits just right 💗✨👰🏼‍♀️💐💒 by @stuffbybai

Here for the playful, giggly, REAL memory making moments !!! Lowkey I feel like you can tell through my photography that I read a lot of Nicholas Sparks books in middle school 🤣💀💌

Hope everyone is staying warm in this Mississippi heat but lmk if you decide to cool off with wine, watermelon, and the water hose and I will come take pics for you 😙 How cute are Dimen and Ryan!!!! 🥲

BTW I am SO bad at social media these days as I finish up all my work from this summer but I tryyyy my best to remember to keep my website pretty updated with new galleries!! So don’t forget to mosey over there if ur ever wondering what I’ve been up to 😇 by @stuffbybai

Just dropping in to say hiiii, Hope & Wesley are EVERYTHING, and I hope y’all are having a fabulous May so far 🌸❤️‍🔥☀️

This April afternoon in Madison was nothing short of stunning and I will be returning again with more.. just had to share a few for now !!! 🤪😏 Always just so honored & grateful to capture these special moments in peoples’ lives 🥹

Loree & Will 🤍 Three Lakes Manor tucked away in Pearl River County legit gives castle and has the best fairytale vibes 🏰 !!!!! The light all day, the colors, everything just looked soooo naturally whimsical & lovelyyyyy

And SWEET angel Loree looked SO ethereal 😭 everything about her bridal look fit the setting perfectly!!

Also realized on Saturday morning that it was the same date my parents got married in this same county 39 years ago!! So special to think about their love that bloomed right there down the street in Picayune while we celebrated the Ruffs in Poplarville!!! 💗💗💗💗💗💗💗
