I believe professional photography should be a rich and memorable experience, so I've spent years carefully curating a beautiful collection of high-end gowns for you to enjoy. In my experience, looking great and feeling great are often one in the same, so I hope you'll find something here that makes you feel like the star you are!
All gowns are "bump friendly" and many work beautifully for non-maternity use as well.

The Process
Go ahead, introduce yourself! The first step to any wonderful session starts with reaching out. Throughout my website, you will find subtle ways to get to know me, but I firmly believe conversations bring relationships to life! I want to meet you and share in your joys before our session and before you even book.
1. Say Hello

Shortly after you reach out to me, we'll set a date to meet in person! I'll come to your home and we can walk through all your hopes and expectations for the session, and pre-plan how you'd like to best use each image so I can ensure I capture each moment with specific intention. This is a wonderful opportunity for us to become more comfortable with each other before session day arrives and I step behind the camera. At the end of our meeting, we'll have your session locked into my calendar and ready to go!
2. Meet and Greet

During our session my assistant and I will guide you through things as fluidly as possible, and encourage you to engage with each other. I love experimenting with a variety of angles and shots, so enjoy yourself while we find the best way to tell your story. Your favorite photos will often be the ones you didn't even know were taken! Allow yourself to focus on your family, and we will take care of the rest.
3. Enjoy your session

A week or two after your session, I will come back to your home to share the "big reveal" with you! This is possibly my favorite part of the process. I will present your personal slideshow as we sit down together to enjoy your images. When you've had a chance to take everything in, we'll select the perfect pieces of artwork for your home.

Delivery times will vary because I choose to use the best print products in the industry, but you will receive a personalized timeline from me at your ordering appointment. When your artwork is ready for you, we will set a day to come by and hand deliver your pieces. Full artwork installation is included in every delivery to take the guess work out of how and when you'll get around to displaying your new art! I am confident that you will love every piece you receive, and I look forward to helping you grow your collection through many years of work together!

We came across her business in the Alpharetta mom group, from the first conversation I knew I liked this girl! She was so sweet! [...] On the day of the shoot, she was so patient, and charismatic! My husband and kids loved her! Her husband was her assistant and he was so pleasant as well! Now about her work, Wow! The pictures far exceeded my expectations! I literally loved every single image! She captured our love in every picture! Thank you so much for your hard work and for creating memories that will last a lifetime for my family!
Far Exceeded my Expectations
Marianna
The changes your body (and emotions) go through when you're pregnant are tough. I've had every unpleasant symptom in the book these past 7 months and have felt the furthest thing from a princess in the process.
But y'all. If McKinley Hodge didn't change all of that! It was cold and the wind was blowing a million miles per hour but that dress 🤩🤩🤩 it was the best I’ve felt in months and I know I will cherish these memories for years to come.
Best I've Felt in Months
Anni
She was wonderful to work with, very efficient and professional and made me feel totally comfortable in front of the camera. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a top-notch photographer.

We loved working with McKinley during our family photo shoot. She produced amazing work! I'm still not sure how she captured so many great pics when my small kids were running around 90% of the time. She was so patient and great with the kids! I look forward to working with McKinley again soon!
So Patient
Jessica
I was so impressed with McKinley during our newborn photoshoot! It was clear that she just loved babies and did such a great job of capturing still photos of precious moments. I had an amazing experience!
Amazing Experience
The Mercers
She and her husband were an absolute joy to work with. They were both so kind and great with our children. One can immediately tell that McKinley has a passion for her art!!
Passion For Her Art
You will walk away from your session with more than high quality pictures. You deserve beautiful memories of an incredible and fun experience that you will reminisce in each time you gaze upon your walls or flip the pages of your hand bound heirloom album. These moments are unrepeatable, and meant to be treasured for a lifetime. Because we all treasure things differently, you will have the opportunity to curate your personalized artwork collection at your post-session gallery reveal.
