She also worked with New Sensations and appeared in content for MetArt during this initial phase. Her career quickly expanded beyond solo modeling into performance work, particularly in girl-girl scenes, which became her primary focus.

Awards and Industry Recognition

Shyla's work in lesbian scenes earned her repeated recognition at the AVN Awards. She won Best Girl/Girl Sex Scene in both 2012 and 2013, followed by the All-Girl Performer of the Year title in 2014 and again in 2016. These wins positioned her as one of the more decorated performers in the girl-girl category during that era. She later received an XBiz Award in 2021 for Best Sex Scene in Virtual Reality.
