I was born and raised in Grand Island, Nebraska, where the warmth of “Nebraska nice” has shaped me from the very start. Travel has been a part of my life since I was three, and my love for adventure has only grown over the years. Whether exploring new places or embracing spontaneous moments, I believe life is best lived with curiosity, joy, and a soundtrack of good music. My passion extends beyond photography—at my core, I strive to bring light and love into the world, reflecting my faith in Jesus through my work and the connections I build.

Photography has been both my passion and profession since I was 17, giving me nearly a decade of experience in transforming life’s most cherished moments into timeless works of art. I believe in the power of photography to preserve emotions with depth and clarity, allowing you to relive the joy, love, and beauty of your story for years to come. Every image I create is designed to transport you back to those meaningful moments, capturing them with authenticity, artistry, and intention.

Beyond photography and travel, my greatest joys come from my husband, Dakota, our sweet pup, Bubba, and the home we are building together in Omaha. My faith is the foundation of my life, shaping the way I love, create, and serve others with purpose and joy.

I have a deep passion for photography, a love for travel, and a genuine joy in connecting with incredible people like you. My approach is gracefully rooted in warmth, connection, and effortless joy—capturing your story in a way that feels both timeless and true to you. To me, you are more than a client—you are part of a story that deserves to be told with heart and care. It is my hope that through this journey, we not only create beautiful images but also build a genuine connection that lasts far beyond the moment.

Welcome! I'm McKenna.
