I'm based out of Ozark, MO...but I shoot all around - from Northwest Arkansas all the way to KC!
Due to my mom receiving treatment at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, TX - I will also be in that area around every 8 weeks for a week.

I WILL travel anywhere you would like me to, for a travel fee! I do LOVE the mountains! :)

I love being by your side to help you before your wedding day. Whether it's going over timelines or figuring out what colors will go best with my editing style! On your wedding day, all I want to capture is the feelings, the mood, the emotions, the calm and crazy moments and all the details that make your wedding unique. I will be there to help in every way that I can!

HERE IS A TESTIMONY FROM A PREVIOUS BRIDE:
"McKayla is absolutely amazing, and I cannot recommend her enough as not just a wedding photographer, but for any occasion! She was there with us the whole day, from the time we all started getting ready to the very end when we did our send off and packed up. She had so many good ideas for photos that we would have never thought of that turned out so amazing! She didn’t miss a single moment of the whole day (which was a very long day), and it was so emotional for us going back through all of the photos and seeing everything from her perspective. She captured tiny moments that we had completely forgotten about!
Not only did she manage to capture STUNNING and dreamy photos with her normal DSLR camera, but during the reception, she walked around with her phone and captured funny dancing videos of my friends & family that she sent to me, and I was so grateful for those! I used an instant Instax camera for my guestbook, and during the reception, she walked around and took tons of cute polaroid photos of a lot of the guests having fun, and I’m so thankful I have those to look back on!
My husband and I live in Ireland, so trying to plan and organise a Springfield wedding from overseas was extremely difficult to say the least. McKayla was so helpful in the whole planning process a year out, and on the day of, I was completely at ease, because she had everything taken care of and we knew we were in good hands!
I cannot recommend McKayla enough — if you’re planning a wedding or a family photo session or just want some cute photos, HIRE HER! I promise you will be so happy!" - A. McSpadden

You will receive an online gallery link with all your photos within maximum 8 weeks (sometimes less depending on the season I photograph your story). For smaller sessions, it's usually around the 3 week mark. You can download all the photos from the gallery but also share them and choose your favorites.

ABSOLUTELY! Anything that will make your session more catered to you, I am here for...most definitely including your furry friends!
(As I mentioned in my About Me section...I am a horse girl - and I WILL give you a discount on your session if your session includes horses! No, I'm not kidding.)

Absolutely! I can help with style guidance. Whether it be color coordination or sending a Pinterest board for inspiration..I GOT YOU!

I also have several local outdoor locations I love to shoot at and can send you details on. If you are looking for a studio style shoot, I love shooting at Urban Studios in Springfield, MO!

If weather doesn't turn out the way we are hoping, we can OF COURSE reschedule. Even if it's an overcast day and you were really wanting that golden hour goodness - we can do it a different day to make that vision come to life!
