Hey there!!
Hi, I’m Makenzie, a Central Wisconsin based storyteller, who loves natural light, true-to-color images, and capturing love stories.
Photography found me during a really low season in my life, with lots of encouragement from my now-Wife, I picked up a camera and slowly started noticing the beauty in the little things again. What began as healing myself, has grown into an amazing gift I get to share with others. Now, I feel so lucky to use it to document the moments that mean the most, ones you’ll look back on years from now and feel the joy all over again. Every moment I get to capture means so much to me, and I am so grateful to play a small role in all of my clients lives.
Outside of photography, I’m usually spending time with my wife, Makayla, and our cat Rhonda, or being the fun aunt to my nieces and nephews! I love reading, crafting, and all things DIY, Especially home renovations on our first house, currently finishing my in home office/craft room! You will never see me pass up a vintage bookstore or Antique mall, I am always on the hunt for little treasures or a new book to add to our collection.
My Approach
My approach to photography is all about blending ease with energy. I create a laid-back, comfortable space where you can just be yourself, while keeping things fun and lively so the experience feels natural (and never stiff). I’ll gently guide you when needed but also step back to capture the candid, in-between moments that tell the real story. At the end of the day, I want your photos to feel just like you! I believe your photos and videos should feel natural, timeless, and full of real emotion. If that’s the kind of story you want told, I’d love to connect and be part of your day!

My absolute favorite series is ACOTAR and Throne of Glass, both by Sarah J. Maas! Pictured is a small chunk of my collection so far of all the different covers for both series.

Our wedding day is of course my favorite, BUT it rained (so no outdoor ceremony), our DJ & Photobooth cancelled on us the morning of (by email) and we ran out of chicken haha Even with all of the OTHER little mishaps, I wouldn't change it for the world! So, know I can handle a curveball in a stressful situation!
