FOR THE MOMENTS YOU CAN FEEL AS MUCH AS YOU SEE.
Hi, I'm McKenzie —
A lifestyle photographer based in Helena, Montana, with a passion for capturing timeless moments. What started as a small hobby quickly turned into a full-blown obsession with light, emotion, and storytelling. Over the years, I’ve refined my style into something I’d call candid and connection-driven — always focused on authenticity and the heart behind each frame. My photography is all about real emotion — especially the little moments in between poses, natural light — for soft, honest tones, and thoughtful composition — because every image should tell a story.
When I am not behind the camera lens, you can find me with a coffee in hand, snuggling my sweet girls, golfing with my husband, or teaching firsties!

Client Love
Where do I begin?! McKenzie was so amazing to work with! She just recently captured me and my husband’s wedding!
Our engagement pictures were so beautiful and what I have seen of our wedding photos so far are so perfect! She was so helpful the whole day with more than just photos! Helped with some little setup details for the ceremony, gave ideas about veil placement, and helped me fix my bustle, which kept breaking, throughout the reception! She was there to capture every moment and was just the photographer I was hoping for on my wedding day!! Cannot recommend McKenzie enough!"
We had the absolute best experience with McKenzie! From start to finish, she is professional, kind, and incredibly talented.
She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, and it truly shows in the photos—every image captured the emotion and little moments so beautifully. Her attention to detail, patience (especially with kids!), and creative eye made all the difference. The turnaround time was quick, and the final gallery exceeded all our expectations. We’ll treasure these photos forever and can’t wait to work with her again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for timeless, heartfelt photography!"

For me, it’s not just about capturing a scene; it’s about capturing the emotion and the story within it. In a single frame, photography holds the power to highlight the subtle details — a shared laugh, a quiet glance, the sunlight hitting a moment just right. It’s those little, often overlooked moments that I find most beautiful.
