Vibrant, Fun, Timeless Photo & Video
Voted Bakersfield's Best Photographer
I'm Makenzie!
oh, hey there!
I’ve had the absolute joy and privilege of photographing some of life’s biggest, most meaningful moments—from “I do,” to cap-and-gown celebrations, to annual family photos, and to the tiniest new arrivals. No matter the season of life you’re in, my goal is always the same: to make you feel comfortable, confident, and genuinely yourself.
Whether you’re a bride soaking in every moment, a graduate celebrating how far you’ve come, a family wanting to freeze time, or a parent wanting to remember just how little your baby once was—I’m here to capture it beautifully, authentically, and with heart. I can’t wait to meet you and tell your story!

From our first meeting until long after our wedding was over, Makenzie was professional, hard working, kind, and extremely genuine. I have never seen a more effective, energetic team than her and her assistants/partners. She works flawlessly with other vendors to make sure everything is done right and exactly how we wanted. If you book with Makenzie you will not be disappointed! Her work is absolutely stunning and more than you could ever expect!"
