Happy Friday Friends! I don’t know about you guys but I’m over here dancing into the weekend because we leave for Southern California bright and early Sunday morning and I am so excited to set my creative soul on fire along with so many new travel experiences! This will be our first time out in California! We have a pretty full schedule while we’re out there but are there any must do’s in the SoCal area! Give me all your suggestions! Side note I’m still obsessed with this gorgeous shoot that took place at my favorite place in Walt Disney World! The Disney Wedding Pavilion and it holds such a special place in my heart! #disney #bride #disneyland #disneygram #disneyworld #disneyparks #weddingday #instadisney #weddingdress #waltdisneyworld #disneywedding #disneyside #wdw #weddingphotography #bridal #weddinginspiration #disneylove #weddingphotographer #disneymagic #waltdisney #disneyprincess #mickeymouse #disneyweddingpavilion #magickingdom #disneyphoto #mariamckenziephotography #disneylife #disneyfan #mickey #indianapolisweddingphotographer

The moment I stepped into @thebalmoralhouse for a look at Hannah & Cody’s wedding venue for the first time with both my kiddos in each hand I knew that I was going to have to utilize this gorgeous fireplace for portraits and it couldn’t have been a more perfect backdrop for Hannah and her bridesmaids! Wouldn’t you agree?

Oh my goodness! I can’t even begin to express how amazing Hannah & Cody’s wedding was! Hannah & Cody have been through so many obstacles like many couples when it came to planning their wedding day but it truly couldn’t have turned out to more of an amazing and beautiful wedding day! Their love shines so bright and I truly couldn’t have been more honored to capture their beautiful and special day! Wishing you both so much love and happiness in your marriage! Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Finney! 💍🥂 Vendor Team: Venue: @thebalmoralhouse Florist: @urbancontessa_ Wedding Gown: @weddingstudiocarmel Makeup: @flairmakeupartistry DJ: @tracksevendj Photography: @mariamckenziephoto Catering: City Barbeque Arch/Decor: @sparkling_decor_and_more #bride #weddingphotography #weddingday #weddingphotographer #weddingdress #photos #photograph #bridal #weddinginspiration #groom #weddings #bridetobe #justengaged #pictures #picture #instawedding #weddingideas #weddingplanner #engagement #marriage #indianaweddingvenues #indianapolisphotographer #indyweddingphotographer #indianaweddingphotographer #indianapolisweddingphotographer #weddingphoto #engaged #mariamckenziephotography

For years I dreamed of being a full time wedding photographer since as far back as I could remember even when I was a little girl. Well exactly 5 years ago this month, I was working as a full time makeup artist in the retail industry for the past 7 years, we had been married 10 months, and we’re just two months shy of welcoming our sweet Ella into the world and I decided to make the biggest leap of faith I have ever made! Talk about scary especially when so much of your life is about to change anyways when your about to become first time parents. I decided to go full time as a wedding photographer. It was terrifying and inspiring all at the same time. I remember that time I’m my life being so scared to take that jump. I questioned would I succeed? Would I be able to sustain a business and make an income as a full time wedding photographer? Would clients book me and keep coming back to me? Then here we are 5 years later and I couldn’t be more excited to be celebrating this milestone with all of you! YOU right here are the reason I was able to continue to pursue this dream of mine that I have had since I was a little girl! I am so beyond thrilled to have taken that leap of faith 5 years ago and had so much support from my family, friends, clients, and fellow industry professionals. I never looked back and continued to keep pushing forward. So I’m here to tell you if you have a dream keep on pushing forward and don’t ever look back! You got this! Cheers to the next 25 years and hoping that I get to continue celebrating with people in all the amazing milestones that happen in their lives ✨🎉🍾 🥂 #weddingphotographer #indianapolisweddingphotographer #indianaweddingphotographer #bossmom #businesswoman #waltdisneyworld #floridaweddingphotographer #entrepreneur #disney #indianaphotographer #chicagoweddingphotographer #disneywedding #disneyweddingphotographer #orlandoweddingphotographer #mariamckenziephotography #destinationwedding #destinationweddingphotographer #entrepreneurlife #midwestweddingphotographer #justengaged #disneyengagement #disneyworld #engagementphotographer #weddingplanners #engagementphotographers #weddingday #bossbabe

Happy Monday Friends! Today I’m looking back on this gorgeous image from my time in New Jersey last summer at the gorgeous @parkchateau! With it being a little slower this time of year I have had a chance to revisit these galleries and I found this gem of a photo and it’s quickly become a favorite. In just less then 2 weeks I will be heading out to sunny Southern California for the first time ever to participate in my 3rd shoot crawl event with @styledshootsacrossamerica and this time we will be shooting in the gorgeous Santa Ynez Valley at @sunstonewinery! I am so excited to grow some more and experience the west coast! PS I am looking for one more couple to model for me for a couples session while I am out there if this is you or you know someone who would be interested please reach out. Our travel dates are April 11th - April 18th! See you soon SoCal!
