Our wedding photos came out exactly how I imagined they would! This photographer knows her stuff! I would 100% recommend her!
I absolutely loved my engagement photos from Makenzie. She gave us fun ideas for poses, was able to capture the photos at the best angles. We incorporated our daughter in our photos, our daughter isn't the best when it comes to pictures, but Makenzie did the best job at getting the perfect photos at just the right time! We haven't decided on our wedding photographer, but Makenzie is definitely at the top of our list.
Honestly I love her! Sheee makes you feel so comfortable she helps you with poses she is so body positive and such a great person to work with. I love the picture she did for me and I have more sessions booked with her and I can’t wait to do those pictures with her also!
Makenzie was a fun photographer to work with; she is creative, timely, informative and listened to our photo ideas as well. She ensured that we were comfortable and having fun the whole time. You can tell she really loves her job and her clients! I would recommend her for wedding photos, engagement, family and more.
Photography by Rae made me feel so comfortable on my wedding day. I say this because I knew I was working with a true artist. She was punctual, professional and every single photo turned out clean and stunning. The quality of my photos are immaculate. As a bride, you worry about how everything will turn out. What will go wrong? Photography by Rae took all of that worry and threw it out the window! Her confidence tells all, you know she knows what she is doing. She gets right to the point and gets the perfect shots. She came up with with a number of great photo ops utilizing the venue as well. I couldn’t have asked for a better photographer with the most amazing personality for my wedding.
I will treasure every single photo forever.
Me and my family have also had 5 total sessions with her other than the wedding (Christmas, family, couple, newborn etc.) and I have to say ALL of my photos are just as stunning as my wedding photos. She is the best!
Makenzie is an amazing photographer, she is very outgoing , and so very sweet. She knows exactly how to make you feel comfortable and find that perfect shot for you, although I am not married so she hasn’t done wedding photos for me she has done my maternity and newborn shots which look like pictures that came out of a magazine with perfect lighting in the sun. I wouldn’t choose another person for any of my photography needs and she will most definitely be doing my wedding. 10/10 recommended!
We hired Photography by Rae for our fall wedding of this year and we were so pleased with the photographer! Photography by Rae did an amazing job from start to finish, we used them for our engagement shoot and for the big day! We even ordered our wedding book through Photography by Rae to have the memories forever & it is beautiful!! Thank you so much for the amazing service! <3
My fiancé and I have been working & booking sessions with Makenzie at her wonderful business known as photographybyrae for a long time now. She’s done several sessions for us in the past, and she never falls short of perfect! It was an absolute no-brainer to use Makenzie again when the love of my life proposed to me. The engagement session was probably my favorite, I am totally in loveeee with how the session turned out! She has a knack for capturing the purest shots in all of the perfect moments. We’re so so excited to have her at our wedding in 2021! I owe Makenzie a huge thanks, without her expertise and level of photography skills, we wouldn’t have these amazing memories that we can look back on in the years to come! I can not wait to see the end result as we already know her impeccable talent!
Makenzie was amazing to work with. We hired her for our wedding and she included our engagement shoot complimentary. She is quit to respond to questions, very dependable, extremely personable, and she made us all feel comfortable behind the camera. She got our pictures back to us in a very timely manner and I was pleased with everything we received. I will definitely be using her again!
