Howdy, frans. I'm Makayla!
good light, great people, and a whole lot of beautiful chaos.
Photographer, horse girl, mom, professional chaos coordinator. Usually covered in horse hair and chasing good light somewhere around Weatherford, TX.
I've spent years behind the camera capturing weddings, families, couples, seniors, and all the beautifully imperfect moments in between.
My approach is pretty simple: less awkward posing, more laughing, moving, being yourselves. Give me a sunset, a little windblown hair, some genuine belly laughs, and maybe a horse or two, and I'm right at home.

0.1: horse girl, obviously
If i'm not behind the camera, there's a good chance I'm at the barn. Horses are a huge part of my life, so yes - bringing your horse to your session is always encouraged.

0.2: mom life = chaos
I'm a mom, which means chaos doesn't scare me. Wild kids, toddler meltdowns, nobody looking at the camera at the same time? We're good. I promise. Some of the best photos happen in mess.

0.3: "we're awkward"
If I had a dollar for every client who told me this, I could probably retire. You do not need to know how to pose. I'll tell you what to do, keep you moving, and make it feel way less awkward than you're expecting.

0.4: Oklahoma roots. Texas home.
I built my photography business in Oklahoma before life brought me to Texas. Now I photograph stories across North Texas, but I'll always have soft spot for my Oklahoma people, and I'm always down to travel!
