MAXVILLE, Fla. – The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said it believes a missing woman, who was last seen at her home on Sunday evening, may be in danger and is asking for the community’s help to determine if she is safe.

According to JSO, Kayla Bailey, 34, was last seen at her home in Maxville late Sunday evening wearing a black romper, brown shoes, and glasses.

Police described her as a 5-foot-8 woman who weighs about 250 pounds with green eyes and blonde/strawberry hair.

JSO reports revealed that Bailey had previously left her home in Maxville after “disputes,” but had returned about a week ago.

Police said they also spoke with Bailey’s daughter, who said she believes she saw her mother around 5:45 the following morning, but also said that she was half asleep at the time. The daughter added that she saw Bailey standing in the middle of a room, but that her mother didn’t say anything.

JSO said its officers have canvassed “immediate areas” as well as locations that Bailey is believed to have frequented, like the Jacksonville Public Library, but were unable to locate her.

On Bailey’s Facebook profile, she describes herself as a business owner and digital creator.

On her business’s website, fohhphotography.com, Bailey is described as a Jacksonville photographer and a mother of five who began her business journey in October 2013.

The website shows various photos, presumably taken by Bailey, specializing in newborn, maternity, and family photography.

Anyone with information on Bailey’s location is asked to call JSO immediately at 904-630-0500.
