MacKenzie is a farm grown, earth mama raising seven wild beauties with her husband in the Arizona desert. She spends her days all year round, chasing kids and SUNSHINE! She subconsciously fears that she will forget a moment or a memory, therefore is extremely dedicated to capturing all the magical moments in life, big or small. Becoming a mother has amplified this fear, and given her a heightened sense of urgency to capture every perfect and imperfect moment, every detail, every joy…THE CONNECTIONS WE CAN FEEL, BUT DON’T ALWAYS SEE, life in all its exponential beauty. Her soul is constantly searching for connection, light, movement and love. Babies don’t keep, kids don’t keep, TIME doesn’t keep…so her intent is to capture images that do, and give you beautiful, tangible treasures to keep forever.

My way of photographing families is completely organic. Emotion is my one true guide. We all feel those moments. The way the smell of your newborn child blankets you in peace and tranquility. The captivating embrace from a toddler that begs of them to never let go. The glance of security and truth from your teenager, that gives you goosebumps because they are growing into so much more than you ever imagined. Not one human can deny those emotions. We all parent uniquely different, but we all feel love. Love is gifted to us all.
