Courtney is based on the east coast and Makenzi now considers herself a west coast wedding photographer. Their styles are different but their goal is the same--to document love stories in a unique yet timeless way. Courtney’s style is classic with true to life colors and effortless posing. Makenzi’s work contrasts hers in a fun and distinctive way that is warmer and more playful. They both aim for a documentary style while capturing wedding days and of course, deliver images that will remain in style for years to come! They are excited to teach you all they know about photography–digital, film, posing, and more!
Courtney and Makenzi are sisters, seven years apart, though you’d never guess it. They’re best friends who have spent countless weekends tag-teaming wedding days, all while each running her own photography business.

What's Included
The workshop will be a full-day experience on Tuesday, May 19th, beginning around 10 a.m. and concluding at dusk. A detailed schedule will be shared as the date approaches.
We love when attendees dress the part so we can all take turns in front of the camera and make the day feel as much like a real wedding as possible. To help with that, we’ve put together an attendee attire vision board for you to browse. We encourage bright colors, fun accessories, and personality-filled outfits. That said, you’re always welcome to dress in whatever makes you feel most comfortable.
