Hi there, my name is Ellie, welcome to McKenzie Studios! I'm a traveling wedding and elopement photographer based in Birmingham Alabama. From the US to the UK, Photography has always been a passion of mine, and documenting the craziness of my own life has been so fun to look back o over years. This is why I know how important it is to capture all those special little moments that make life so special.

We found Ellie on Zola.com and immediately fell in love with her work. She responded quickly and let us know she had our date available. We first met at our engagement shoot, where we got to know each other and shared some similarities which made us feel like Ellie was the perfect person to capture our day. She also helped bring my vision to life for this shoot! Fast forward to our wedding day and Ellie captured everything perfectly. Even with a few missed timelines, she assured this stressed bride that everything was okay and she was here for us. Our wedding photos reflect this beautifully. I really can't recommend Ellie enough.

I used a Facebook group for Alabama brides to find Shelby with The Southern Planner and I am not exaggerating when I say that Shelby is the most positive feedback I have gotten from my friends and family from our special day. Shelby was on top of EVERYTHING. I didn’t have to worry about a single thing, she had it all taken care of. I would book her a thousand times over again. I now consider Shelby a friend and just need to have another event so I can call her up and have her plan it. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, Shelby!

Awarded Best of Zola
Raven was literally the best planner. I could not have planned my wedding without her. She was literally there for every step of the way from when I picked my dress to making sure the food was just right at the food tasting. I vividly remember having a melt down when picking up my dress at the final alteration. I texted her and she literally dropped everything she was doing just to get to get the dress shop so she could see the dress and give advice on how to fix what I was upset about. She kept up with my budget and went back to the drawing board when needed. She constantly reassured me and kept my stress levels low. She was also a bride in 2023 so she always knew exactly how I felt and the stress of being a bride. She had assistants the day of the wedding who literally did not leave our sides. They were there fixing every little thing that would go wrong. It was such a beautiful and stress free day. Raven literally became family to us. I’ve told my husband how much I missed her because she was always available and there to listen to any problems concerns. She is the best and I would recommend her to anyone!

My commitment to excellence and attention to detail drives me to go above and beyond to make each wedding a truly magical affair.

Our wedding was on my father's farm, and we wanted it to feel unique and memorable. Wanderlust Beverage Services made that happen in the most amazing way. Their converted horse trailer mobile bar was a huge hit and an incredible addition to our decor! From the moment the bar was set up, it became a focal point and a huge talking point for our guests. It was charming, stylish, and fit perfectly with our outdoor, rustic theme. But it wasn't just about the looks – the service was impeccable. The bartenders were friendly, professional, and made sure everyone had a great time. John and I were blown away by the craft cocktails. They created a custom drink menu that reflected our tastes perfectly. Our guests are still talking about the "Farmhouse Fizz" they designed for us! Thank you, Wanderlust Beverage Services, for adding such a unique touch to our special day. Your service made our wedding unforgettable, and we couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. – Shelby

These aren’t just memories—they’re moments I never want to forget.
