McKenzie is an absolutely wonderful photographer who will capture the moment like few others can. We were extremely happy with how the photos and album turned out. She is incredibl...
y easy to work with and very professional.
Her guidance was also extremely helpful.
McKenzie was a dream to work with, start to finish - her photography is beautiful and she made things so easy. We have received endless compliments on our photos (and everyone rem...
embers how great she was)! We're so glad we got to work with her and could not have had a better outcome.
McKenzie was fabulous! We got married in October 2023. It poured rain the whole day. McKenzie helped us capture great photos regardless of the rain. We absolutely loved them. She m...
anaged to make us look good and got great shots of the reception, out family, and wedding party. 100% recommend.
There are no words to adequately describe how wonderful and talented this photographer is, but I will try. I was initially drawn to the warmth and genuineness of McKenzie’s photos....
As soon as I reached out, she set up a time for us to discuss working together and immediately I felt like I was chatting with an old friend. Her kindness, down to earth attitude, and fun spirit immediately put my photo-aversive husband at ease. We had a blast taking engagement photos. It just felt like a fun day playing in the snow, but she captured the most beautiful intimate moments between us, as well as our goofiness. She assisted me with my entire wedding day timeline, always offering fantastic advice, and helping me to stay calm the week before. On our wedding day McKenzie made miracles: she somehow managed to be everywhere at once, capturing every special moment between us, our family, and our friends. All of our guests who reached out afterwards mentioned how kind, attentive, and overall wonderful McKenzie was. When our photos arrived (incredibly fast too!) we were completely blown away. Somehow the pictures are even better than our memories and this was the best day of our lives! She managed to create images that were elegant without any pretension, brimming with joy and laughter, and most important of all a true representation of us. There is no way we can ever thank her enough for not only being such an integral, fun, supportive part of our day, but also for giving us the most beautiful way reminisce about our favorite day. If you are trying to decide on a wedding photographer, please do not look any further, there’s no better choice you could make.
If you are looking for a photographer in the Baltimore area, I cannot recommend McKenzie enough! We elected to have a last minute elopement, but managed a stress free experience in...
large part due to McKenzie's personality, professionalism and creativity. Despite a narrow window of time and mostly remote planning, we were able to have both an engagement and wedding photo shoot which went wonderfully, even when things like rain or oppressive heat stood in the way.
McKenzie is a kind yet direct photographer with a beautiful aesthetic, an eye for detail and a sense of calm that allowed for us to be more comfortable with the sessions. She also worked well with our other vendors despite limited interaction prior, and her knowledge of the Baltimore area made planning a far more enjoyable experience. Above all else, the photos taken were absolutely incredible. I cannot say enough good things about McKenzie or my experience with her.
McKenzie was so great to work with!! She was very flexible with us and our postponed COVID wedding. She did our photos for our small 20-person ceremony last year, and just joined u...
s again for our larger celebration a couple weekends ago. Communicating with McKenzie is so easy, she is so helpful and she takes BEAUTIFUL pictures! Highly recommend. (She is also just a very kind, lovely person.)
My husband and I loved working with McKenzie and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
From our first phone call, I was impressed by McKenzie’s professionalism and her attentivenes...
s. McKenzie stood out from the other photographers I interviewed because she really listened to me. I felt assured that she was there for me and that she would do an incredible job.
When we cancelled our summer 2020 wedding, McKenzie offered to apply our deposit to another session, which turned out to be our August micro-wedding ceremony followed by portraits of my husband and me. The final photos are stunning and we are so happy with them. In under two weeks we had the digital images to share with our family and friends (and received many compliments).
Given the circumstances, I did not expect the “complete” package, but McKenzie followed through with a beautifully boxed set of prints and a thumb drive of the digital images. Working with McKenzie was a pleasure from start to finish. I’m looking forward to working with McKenzie again when we re-schedule our wedding reception.
I cannot overstate the incredible experience we had with McKenzie. We knew from our first conversation that working with her would be amazing and that we would have nothing to worr...
y about. My husband and I are both photo-shy and she warmed us up instantly during our engagement shoot, so when our wedding arrived it all felt so natural.
McKenzie has such a warm presence - she was like our buddy during our wedding day. She captured our wedding so beautifully that I am still in awe every time I look through the photos. It's not just pretty pictures - the personality of us, our day, our guests are so clear in the moments she caught.
Her photography and editing style is so beautiful - feeling classic, modern, and organic all at once. Her artistry and creative eye are one of a kind. After the wedding she sent us the sweetest keepsake that we will treasure always, along with our photography.
Did I mention she was 8 months pregnant when she shot our wedding and was on her feet all day with a huge smile on her face the whole time? I know this is a lot of gushing - but it's all true! Working with her was definitely one of the highlights of our whole wedding experience.
McKenzie is incredible. Her talent is out of this world, and she's SO sweet. She was amazing to work with, and was super patient with our crazy families too! We cannot stress how l...
ovely she is, and professional, and talented.
McKenzie photographed our wedding in July of 2018, and we couldn’t be happier with how our photos turned out!! Not only that, but she was a truly a pleasure to work with during our...
wedding planning process. She had awesome ideas and even helped us find a great place to get ready/take photos before our ceremony!! She is responsive, super helpful, and kind - exactly the kind of person we wanted around on our wedding day. Honestly, McKenzie was our favorite out of all of the wedding vendors we worked with.
We had wedding events on two different days, and McKenzie was amazingly flexible in working with us to customize a photo package to fit our needs. She shot our marriage blessing at a Hindu temple one night, and then our Christian ceremony the next day (with receptions both nights - this woman has stamina!!). My husband and I get such joy from looking back through our wedding weekend photos - McKenzie's work captured all of the emotion, smiles, laughter, and fun in an artistic and timeless style. We're forever grateful to her!
Oh, and McKenzie is great with kids, which was super helpful for the shots we wanted to get that had young family members in them!
I cannot say enough good things about McKenzie and her photography. We weren't sure we were going to hire a photographer at all, but we met with McKenzie to discuss options a few m...
onths before the wedding. After one minute, we could tell McKenzie was the sweetest, warmest person and she put both of us at ease. Having her photograph our wedding was a no-brainer, and her pricing structure and options are SO reasonable, that we didn't break our budget either.
McKenzie was so communicative and organized leading up to the wedding; we met with her at the venue to go through the schedule and shot list (at her suggestion) and talk about ways to make the day go smoothly. She thought of everything and was so easygoing! When it came to our wedding day, McKenzie was able to make everyone smile, feel natural posing for photos, and sneak around taking candids without making people feel self-conscious. She was a total dream and made our wedding day even better than we thought it could be. She knew how to draw us out as we were taking photos with little prompts that made us laugh or elicit loving looks, and we are NOT people who are comfortable in front of a camera.
I literally could not believe it when the pictures were edited and ready for us to view within 8 days, and THEY.ARE.STUNNING. McKenzie was able to take a beautiful photo of nearly everyone and everything, and her photos really demonstrate her artistic ability. The lighting, the focus, and the composition of every photo is just amazing; we could not be happier. McKenzie wrote such a sweet blog post featuring our photos as well; it was so fun to see the day through her eyes.
McKenzie's ability as a photographer cannot be understated, but it's her personality that made us adore her and made her able to draw out all the natural smiles, loving looks, and real laughs she captured on film. She's so talented, so fun to work with, and was SO totally worth it. She's truly the best.
McKenzie is incredibly gifted at not staging photos but finding where a genuine moment can be captured. Our photos are as sacred as the memories we have taking them.
