MyKenzie Alexis Photography

  • Serves Smithville, AR

I photograph with the understanding that one day, these images will become part of a family’s most treasured history. Long after the day has passed, they will hold the light, the emotion, and the quiet beauty that words cannot. My approach is rooted in presence—observing with care, honoring what unfolds naturally, and preserving the fleeting moments that often matter most. I believe photographs should do more than document how things looked; they should return you to how it felt to be there, surrounded by love, meaning, and connection.

Awarded Best of Zola
“I truly cannot say enough good things about MyKenzie Alexis Photography. From our first conversation, she felt like someone we could completely trust, and that feeling never changed. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera (which is NOT easy) and was such a calming presence on our wedding day - she had our back through it all. She captured everything so naturally — the big moments, the small details, and all the in-between emotions that made the day feel so special. When we got our photos back, it honestly felt like reliving the day all over again and all the emotions were felt through each photo. Beyond being incredibly talented, she is kind, organized, and just genuinely wonderful to work with. Choosing her was one of the best decisions we made, and we’ll treasure these photos forever. If you’re on the fence — book her. You will not regret it!!”

I love the vintage-inspired look of the photos and video. She communicated when she said she would and I always received a quick response to any questions or messages I had. On the wedding day, I couldn’t imagine anyone who would make it as special as Mae did. She was more than a photographer- she helped me put on myself shoes, hyped up all the little details I stressed months over, and was just such a joy. I cannot recommend Mae enough. I loved all the photos and the video made me cry. Mae is the type of person you want to be friends with after everything is done. Trust me, book Mae!!”

Hey there! My name is Angelina and I started practicing photography in August 2020, but I've had an interest in it since I was 13 years old (I really wanted to shoot for National Geographic). Now I've expanded into portraits, engagement sessions, and I've done small weddings. I'm a Chicago native but I've also lived in Iowa, Arizona, Nebraska, Texas, & now Mississippi!! What can I say, I enjoyed a somewhat nomadic lifestyle. I also just got married on August 31st, so I know how it feels to be both a service provider and a customer! My style of photography is more candid with a documentary style approach, but I do love a good editorial moment!

The quality of their work and overall value is unmatched - Leslie has a way of making me feel like a model, and she would even send us photos at 2 AM just to make sure we could get our pictures back quickly. Leslie really went above and beyond to contribute to our special day. When I was feeling nervous before the ceremony, she called me aside and asked me to describe my wife in a few words, which ended up capturing such an emotional moment that I started tearing up. She also made the photo sessions fun and engaging, even getting our rambunctious toddler to smile the whole time. Leslie Grace Photography will undoubtedly be the only person we use for any future photoshoots - she makes us feel so comfortable and special, and has truly transformed what I used to dread into a party when my wife tells me it's time for photos!”

If you're looking for magical, intentional photos that just scream you, let's connect.

I’m Nikki. A Florida-based wedding photographer documenting the wild, sacred, beautifully imperfect parts of getting married. My approach is documentary, nostalgic, and a little bit undone. I’m there for the moments you didn’t plan for: your dad trying not to cry, your friends losing their minds on the dance floor, the quiet five minutes alone together, the weird little in-between moments you won’t realize mattered until years later.

“Nikki was my college senior picture photographer. I wanted to do 3 very different photo shoots, as well as incorporate my college friends and my dog. Nikki was able to execute my vision perfectly!!! She knew the perfect locations and captured the vibe I was going for in each session perfectly. I am very detailed oriented and she made sure to capture all the small personal details I wanted included as well. These are my favorite pictures I’ve ever had taken. She was so encouraging and made me feel extremely comfortable behind the camera. Whether you are wanting something more traditional or something completely unique, Nikki will execute it beautifully!!”

These aren't just photos. These are stories. They're your story. My approach is natural. I don't force moments, but I do know when to help direct. I want you to feel comfortable enough to come as you are, and let me capture the true essence of "you", because that is what matters the most. I am a natural light wedding photographer, which means I use solely the natural light outside or inside a building. I know what types of light situations are best, and I know how to combat the ones that are out of our control. I think natural light brings out the creamy tones to skin, makes your eyes sparkle, and makes for an organic photo.

She quickly puts her clients at ease and her excitement and enthusiasm makes photos painless and so enjoyable and she consistently delivers beautiful work to her clients.

Our engagement photos and the sneak peaks she’s already sent (within a couple days) of our wedding are beautiful.

We received many compliments of us from guests, bridal party and family that talked about how sweet she was. You won’t regret it booking with Sara.”

Jason felt more like a best friend than a vendor. We shared countless laughs throughout the day and created memories that will last us a lifetime.

“We recently had the pleasure of working with Arie T Photography for our engagement photo session, and I can't recommend her enough! From the moment we arrived, Arie made us feel comfortable and at ease. Which really helped to capture our genuine emotions and connection in the photos. Arie's professionalism and creativity shone through as she guided us through various poses and settings while allowing us to showcase our personalities. Our original plan did not go as planned. I was really upset. Before we arrived Arie had a plan for us. The locations she chose were stunning and perfectly suited to our style. She saved the day! The raw photos were beautiful. When we received the edited photos….we were absolutely gagged! Each shot was beautifully composed and the edits were flawless, enhancing the natural beauty of the images. Overall, our engagement photo session with Arie T Photography was incredible. If you're looking for a talented photographer who knows how to make you feel comfortable while also delivering amazing results, look no further than Arie”

“Leah photographed our wedding at my family's property in Napa Valley, June 2024. Leah took lots of time to scope out the location and seemed to be absolutely *everywhere* during the wedding, at all the right moments. I didn't have to call her over once, because she was already there. She captured the emotions of the day, the little moments, the big moments, and made our day look like the fairytale wedding that it felt like. Once we got the photo gallery back (so quickly!) we relived the day all over again. We were tearing up and laughing at all the photos. I felt like I was looking at photos from a Brides magazine, but it was me! Another thing I'll mention is that Leah gives direction in a kind, calm and encouraging way. My husband is not too confident in photos and he felt SO comfortable posing with her there, and loves his photos too! I felt like she could guide me into more flattering poses when I felt uncertain about my angles. I love Leah and her work and would recommend her to anyone!”
