"Makayla was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding! After interviewing multiple photographers, we were so grateful to find Midwest Photography—not only within our budget but also available during one of the busiest wedding weekends. From our engagement photos with our kids to our wedding day, she was such a breath of fresh air to work with. Her energy matched our laid-back style perfectly, and every single photo we received was breathtaking. She truly captured the essence of our day and the atmosphere we created at our venue. We cannot recommend her enough!"

"Makayla has been capturing our photos for a couple of years now, and I’ve truly loved every single session with her! We first met her when she was offering photo sessions at Merts Tree Farm, and we were instantly hooked. She even played a role in my surprise proposal, making everything feel so natural and effortless. Since then, she has documented both our engagement and wedding, and I couldn’t be more grateful.
On our wedding day, she made everything feel so smooth and stress-free—she knew exactly which photos to take and captured the sweetest, most meaningful moments. I also love how she always brings my inspiration pictures to life and has the patience of a saint when it comes to waiting on my dog to cooperate.
I will forever recommend her to anyone and everyone, and I will 100% continue using her for all of my photography needs in the future!"

"Makayla was so fun to work with for our out of the box anniversary photos. She understood our vision and executed it perfectly. Makayla made both my husband and I comfortable in front of the camera and really highlighted our relationship and personality perfectly through the photos she took. We cannot recommend Midwest Photography enough, and look forward to our next photo shoot with Makayla."

'I’ve worked with MaKayla on multiple times, I’m a return client of for a reason. MaKayla is truly exceptional at what she does. Each session left me more impressed than the last!
MaKayla did a fall photo shoot with my dog and the results were absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived, it was clear how patient and professional she is. She took her time, made sure my pup was comfortable, and had an amazing eye for capturing the sweetest, most genuine moments. She’s a natural director, guiding us effortlessly while still keeping the session fun and relaxed. Her creativity really stood out, especially with all the adorable fall-themed props she brought along. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, and every shot she delivered felt like a work of art. Not only is she talented behind the camera, but she’s also just a joy to work with.
Before that, I came to her with a totally different vision: an artsy, in-the-water shoot that I had been dreaming about for a long time. I wasn’t sure how it would turn out, but she brought my vision to life in ways I couldn’t have imagined. Her creativity, skill, and ability to make me feel comfortable in a unique setting made the experience unforgettable and the final photos were breathtaking.
She’s truly a professional, talented, easy to work with, and genuinely passionate about what she does. Whether you're dreaming up something bold and creative or want to capture heartfelt moments with your pet (or family), MaKayla is the one you want behind the camera. You’ll end up with beautiful memories and photos you’ll treasure forever, I keep my pups photo up on my computer year round and have him on display at my house as well. I already know I’ll be back again!"
