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. She will be our go to photographer for whatever life throws our way next!

Every little glance, the movement of my dress in the wind, my partner’s nervous smile right before the vows… somehow it’s all there. But what stood out the most was how calm and kind they were throughout the day. No stress, no pressure, just a really talented group of people who clearly love what they do. We didn’t just end up with beautiful photos and an emotional video—we ended up with memories that feel like us.
