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.

Shortly after you reach out to me, we'll set a date to meet and talk more! We can talk on the phone or go grab some coffee as we walk through all your hopes and expectations for the session, and pre-plan how you'd like to best use each image. This helps me capture each moment with specific intention and it's 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!

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 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!

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.

love notes from our
— Anni D.
"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."
— The Butlers
"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!
— Marianna D.
"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. "
— Elizabeth M.
"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!"
