CANDID & DOCUMENTARY photography

Oh hey hi, I'm

Kenzie

a Lifestyle

storyteller

As a child, my parents always had cameras or video cameras rolling. We were that quintessential 90's household with stacks of VHS tapes documenting our holidays, birthdays, and everything in-between. There was never a lack of evidence that we did something. Photos were always a constant in my life, whether having them or taking them as I got older. It's always been about preserving the memory, the fleeting moment in time, and the perspective to see something from all angles. There's something magical about flipping through old albums and living in the nostalgia of it all. As I've gotten older, there's something even more beautiful about the feelings these memories evoke—the laughter shared, the tears shed, and the joy felt in those captured moments. Now, as a photographer, I aim to capture that same magic for others, preserving their cherished memories in timeless images that evoke the same warmth and nostalgia. Because I believe that in every photograph lies a story waiting to be told, a memory waiting to be relived, and a moment waiting to be cherished forever.

Fact 1


After every wedding I will stop and grab a CRISP Diet Coke, but it won't be nearly as CRISP as your preview gallery will be. ;)

02.


Fact 2


I have a degree in Psychology, so people-watching and analyzing behaviors come second nature to me, which makes it easy to read a vibe and apply it to what's working and what's not when it comes to posing people for photos.

Fact 3


I'm gluten-free, and while it sucks most of the time, tacos, queso, and a margarita are not so life is not all that bad.

Fact 4


I have 2 Bernese Mountain Dogs, one of which weighs over 150lbs. So yes, I will get hyped if you want to bring your fur-babe to your wedding or engagement session and no - I won't care if they jump all over me.


I am readyyyy!

"WHAT CAN I SAY! KENZIE IS YOUR GO TO GIRL FOR THE FINGER LAKES AND FURTHER! WE’VE BEEN WITH HER FOR AROUND 4 YEARS AND SHE’S NEVER DISAPPOINTED. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND BOOK WITH KENZIE!"
— Meriah V
Kenzie was our wedding photographer and we loved working with her! We adore the photos she took, especially the fun candids of guests and small, sweet moments we wouldn’t even think to capture. My husband and I aren’t the most comfortable in front of the camera, but she helped us feel relaxed, confident, and present. Absolutely would recommend Kenzie!
