In this episode of The Work We Keep, Kayla reflects on how becoming a mother changed the way she approaches family, newborn, and Fresh 48 photography. After never having Fresh 48 or newborn photos of her own, she shares why she now finds herself documenting the ordinary details other mothers may not realize they'll miss yet, from hospital rooms and tiny newborn hands to pizza boxes, imperfect moments, and the way a baby fits against their mom.


It's a conversation about motherhood, memory, and why the photographs that feel insignificant today often become the ones we treasure most as our children grow.

If you're a mom in the Dallas-Fort Worth area ready to preserve what this season of your family actually feels like, book your own family, motherhood, newborn, or Fresh 48 photography experience at kaylamariphotography.com.

The most important source is the actual Seventh Circuit opinion in United States v. Anderegg. The court explicitly says modern generative AI can create virtual abuse imagery “virtually indistinguishable” from imagery involving actual children, expresses concern about how old Supreme Court precedent applies to modern AI, and says it is bound by that precedent. The opinion also confirms that Meta originally reported the Instagram transmission to NCMEC.

Read the Seventh Circuit opinion


NCMEC's Generative AI resource provides the numbers used in the episode. NCMEC reports more than 400,000 CyberTipline reports with a generative-AI nexus in 2025, more than 158,000 images/videos categorized as AI-generated between January 2023 and December 2025, and more than 275 identified direct victims during 2024–2025. It also explains AI deepfakes, sextortion, peer victimization, CyberTipline and Take It Down.

NCMEC: Generative AI and child exploitation


The new Meta lawsuit, Alvarez v. Meta Platforms was filed September 4, 2026. Parents and children allege that Facebook and Instagram photographs were used in connection with biometric, facial-recognition and generative-AI systems without legally required consent. Importantly, these are allegations, and Meta says the lawsuit is without merit.


The Meta AI children's-information incident was reported by Business Insider and The Verge. Meta acknowledged that its AI should not have generated the invasive suggested prompts concerning a user's children and said it fixed the issue.


The Meta advertising investigation found prohibited AI-generated exploitative imagery in ads running on Meta platforms. Subsequent reporting identified hundreds more problematic ads, some involving imagery of real children. Meta says it does not tolerate the material and removed offending ads. Senator Mark Warner also formally requested answers from Meta about its advertising review systems.


The New Mexico child-safety judgment against Meta is a separate case. The New Mexico DOJ says Meta's financial exposure reached $942 million and the court ordered five years of reforms involving teen safety, sextortion, sexual exploitation, privacy and other protections.

Drawing from 15 years of staying active (and her current journey training for a half marathon), Kayla shares how movement has taught her to do hard things, stay committed when motivation fades, and push through discomfort. Lessons that mirror the everyday challenges of business ownership and mom life. From running when she doesn’t feel like it, to lifting weights when it’s uncomfortable, to making difficult phone calls in her marketing career, she explains how building strength isn’t just physical, it’s deeply mental.


Kayla also highlights how real confidence is built through evidence, especially for women. Strength training can help women feel more grounded, self-assured, and safe in their bodies, which translates into speaking up in rooms where we once felt small, raising our prices, going after opportunities, and trusting ourselves more fully.


This episode encourages you to start small, show up consistently, and practice being a little uncomfortable — because that’s where growth happens. As Kayla reminds us: “The reps we do in the gym become the reps we take into life and business.”
