Creative, sweet, detail-oriented, makes you feel comfortable, and overall a terrific and great experience with Mekennah!

Simon and I found Onward Photography through a friend who got married a year before us, and based on their photos, we wanted Mekennah to be our wedding photographer too! We got married at the church we met, where we had photography restrictions, and she was very flexible! Also, Mekennah stuck by the contract, timeline for engagement and wedding photo turnarounds, and constantly checked in on us to see if there was any support she could provide while we planned our wedding. The little details count, and we never had to worry about her as a wedding vendor! And of course, all the photos turned out sweeter, more personal and loving than we envisioned!

Simon and I highly recommend choosing her as your wedding (AND engagement) photographer--you won't regret it!

Worth every penny!

When we decided to get married, there was no doubt that we wanted Mekennah to do our photos. Her style is exactly what we were looking for. She was amazing to work with! Every detail that we asked for, she delivered. It was effortless and such a great experience. She took the time and care on our photos. You can tell that she enjoys her profession!
