December is always a month of rest but this entire year has been like a perpetual off-season. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Truthfully, the lack of the work actually feels draining. It’s really affecting my energy and mood. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I am C R A V I N G creative work and know I would feel energized and refreshed by rolling up my sleeves and shooting. I guess now is the time to go for all those personal projects and editorials I always put aside. Keep your eyes out for model calls in the next month! I’ve got so many ideas for motherhood, maternity, bridals—and if any of my friendors are feeling similarly drained/hungry, let’s get together and create something. ✨ . . . . . #fuji400 #canon1v #shootfilm #mnbride #minnesotaweddingphotographer #believeinfilm #filmphotography #theknotwi #theknotmn #minneapolisweddingphotographer #wibride #wisconsinbride #mnbride #midwesternbride #milwaukeeweddingphotographer #midwestwedding #bridalinspiration #weddinggown ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Photographer: @darcybenincosa Stylist: @jade.magnolia Florist: @evergreenflowerco Gown: @galialahav Rings: @everettfinejewlery Hair & Makeup: @soireebeautyconcierge Tabletop: @borrowedblu Paper goods: @feteandquill Backdrop & Mats: @jrd_artshop Linens: @latavolalinen Suit: @shoppatrickjames Welcome gift: @asignaturewelcome Male Model: @coreyrmartin Cake: @jade.magnolia Chairs: @brighteventrentals Workshop Host: @thehybridco

S I X—I had the privilege of shooting six weddings this year (so far). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I cannot express adequately how much it meant to me that those who chose to go forward and get married safely still asked me to come photograph it. I’ve always said that weddings are a social celebration of a sacred commitment. The social part may be changing but it’s been amazing to see my clients and the industry adapt in just a few months. People are reminding themselves of what a wedding is really about—it’s about that sacred commitment. It’s day one of your legacy as you build a life together. The spaces that were once occupied with a lot of fluff now have room for the things that really matter. More space for moments that are beautiful and sweet and funny and sometimes sad and every time I leave a wedding I hope to god my photographs did it justice (they didn’t, they never do). And while I do hope to see some of the social traditions (and fluff) return next year, it has been so creatively satisfying to see weddings in a new light. Thank you for bringing me along. I love and appreciate all of you. . . . . . #mackenzieorthweddings #mackenzieorthbrides #theknotmn #minneapolisweddingphotographer #theknot #mnbride #midwesternbride #minnesotabride #midwestwedding #smpweddings #stylemepretty #bridalinspiration #weddinggown #classicwedding #classicweddingstyle #marthaweddings #fuji400 #contax645 #mediumformat #shootfilm #minnesotaweddingphotographer #ishootfilm #believeinfilm #filmphotography #marthastewartweddings
