Photography for the people who want their real life remembered

WORK WITH MCKAILIE

Photography, for me, has always been about paying attention to the things most people rush past. My own story has taken me through seasons of loss, growth, motherhood, rediscovery and choosing a slower, more intentional way of life.  All of that shaped the way I see people. Its why I photography the way I do. Gently, intuitively and with so much care.

MY SERVICES.

WORK WITH MCKAILIE

Whether I'm documenting your love story or your growing family my work is rooted in connection and real life. 
Expect a mix of guidance and freedom. I'll gently direct when needed but the magic always comes from the real moments you bring. And yes, that means the chaos, the laughter, the mess.

Alongside photography, I also offer birth support for local families. If you're looking to feel more confident and informed about your pregnancy and birth, I'm your gal!

I believe that true magic happens when you feel seen, heard, and valued for who you truly are.

meet your girl -

I spent my early 20s chasing the world and every adventure I could find… and somewhere along the way, I realized slow, meaningful living is where I feel the most myself. Coming back home grounded me, it gave me  the reminder that the “small” moments are anything but small.

When I’m not behind the camera, I’m with my sweet little family, the absolute light of my life. These days look like snuggles, chaos, belly laughs and finding magic in the ordinary. I love baking, slow mornings and being home with my babies more than anything.

My work comes from a slower, softer place. One that values real life over the perfect picture. I show up to capture you as you are, in the moments that matter most, without forcing anything.
