About MJMaiden Photography
MJMaiden Photography
My name is Makenzi but most people call me M.J. I am a Destination Wedding and Elopement photographer that travels all over the country to beautiful destinations to witness the greatest love stories! My photography style is warm, vibrant, and authentic. I love working with all different types of individuals (that become friends) and capturing some of the most unforgettable moments through my lens. I like to create a comfortable space for my clients to be completely themselves in order to capture candid moments that tells their story! My career is photography, but my passion is people.
The biggest reason why I absolutely love being a photographer is capturing those celebratory moments in life that deserve to be remembered. For those couples who connect with my work and style, I'M 100% ALL IN!!! Which means I'll do anything and everything to make sure you have a great experience with me! Whether that be hyping you up on your big day, bustling your dress, planning timelines to make sure everything runs smoothly, getting down with you on the dance floor, you name it, I AM YOUR GIRL! It's YOUR day so you deserve nothing but the best. Let's capture your love uniquely and beautifully!

One of our favorite photographers
MJMaiden Photography was an absolute pleasure to work with for our couples wedding. Their communication style was attentive, fast, clear, and highly responsive throughout the entire process. The quality of their work was breathtaking - they captured the classic and creative details of the couples special day with a great eye for detail. They were easy to work with, seamlessly flowed with our brides schedule, and their photos truly told the story of our the wedding. I would highly recommend MJMaiden Photography to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding photography experience.
Wedding photos of our dreams
We could not have asked for a better experience with a wedding photographer than MJ! She was so kind, energetic, and our own hype woman. She made us feel so comfortable being in front of the camera and truly captured the most candid and heartfelt emotions of our wedding. She gave us some sneak peek photos a few days after our wedding and they were gorgeous! So happy with our decision to book MJ and will definitely be telling all our friends to book her too.
Captured our vision perfectly!
MJ did our engagement photo shoot exactly how we visioned and exceeded our expectations! We felt so comfortable with her guiding us with poses and finding places on the site to take photos! She gave us a questionnaire before the photo shoot to know what our vision was and she nailed it! She even played music by our favorite artists to help us let loose and have fun! She sent over 50 sneak peak photos just two days after the photo shoot and they’re beautifully edited! I highly recommend booking her for your next photo shoot! She’s fast at responding and very professional!
You won’t regret it!
Communication from start to end was quick and easy, and MJs photos are worth the price! Our photos were bright, colorful, and reflect our day perfectly. MJ was a good sport since our group started celebrations early in the day and laughed off the craziness with us lol! We got our photos in a timely manner and even received printed copies, a thank you note and a USB with all edited and unedited photos from the day. We would recommend her to anyone !
