GET TO KNOW ME!
HEY!! I'M MCKENNA!
I am so glad you are here! I got started in photography in middle school. My mom had an old D750 camera that I had no idea how to use and I started bringing it everywhere with me. I decided to partake in Yearbook and photography classes my senior year and really started learning what manual and auto meant, and how to work a camera! 6 years later I am running my own business! I graduated college with a bachelors in Integrated Marketing Communications and have been living my dream since. Photography is so special to me because people are trusting me to capture real life moments. I am so so grateful to the opportunity to capture once in a lifetime moments.
If you see me I most likely have an iced coffee in my hand and if you catch me outside of work I am either watching the loml play baseball or fishing with him, haha. My family means the world to me. I have the best mom and dad and they have done so much to help me start up my business. I also have a brother 3 years younger than me. We love playing card games, eating, & watching whatever sport is on the tv. I am still learning and growing every day. I know the lord placed photography on my heart for a reason and I am so lucky i have the opportunity to get to create and meet new people every day. I always said my dream job is to work and help people and i am so happy I get to do that in a creative way.
