Growing up in Pismo Beach, a young Kayla Marie would watch the sunset from her balcony every night. At the age of 9, she received her first camera as a gift from her father. “My dad saw me out there watching all the time,” Marie said. “He decided to get me a camera and told me to start taking pictures. It became a passion. From that moment on, I didn’t stop.”Marie has since been snapping pictures across Santa Barbara County for decades.
