THE KISS. THE CHEERS. THE “WE JUST GOT MARRIED” GRINS. 🥹🤍

That walk back down the aisle hits a little different when you’re walking into forever with your favorite person.

The nerves are gone, the vows have been said, & now it’s time to celebrate the beginning of your next chapter together. 🥂✨

Tell me, is there anything sweeter than that first kiss as husband & wife?!

Some details are beautiful. Others mean something a little deeper. 🤍

A timeless pair of heels, a strand of pearls passed down through generations, & a little piece of family history woven into one of the biggest days of her life.

Because the most meaningful wedding details aren’t always the newest or the most expensive. Sometimes, they’re the pieces that carry the stories of the women who came before her. ✨

Tell me, what’s one family heirloom you’d want to carry with you on your wedding day?

Some entrances just make you stop & take it all in. 🤍✨

The grand architecture, the beautiful setting, the anticipation of what’s to come… and the beginning of a day these two will remember forever.

Because your wedding day deserves to feel just as beautiful as it looks.

Tell me… are you stopping to admire the entrance, or are you ready to see what’s waiting inside? 🥂

Ever thought about capturing the essence of your wedding day in a bottle? Imagine having a signature scent that takes you back to that magical day every time you wear it. 🎉

The idea of a special cologne or perfume just for your wedding day is like bottling up memories. Science says scent is a powerful trigger for memories, so why not make your fragrance an exclusive reminder of your "I do's"? It's like a time machine in a bottle, whisking you back to that special moment. 🌹

For engaged couples and romantics, starting this fragrant tradition can add an extra layer of magic to every anniversary. It’s a little ritual that keeps love vibrant and memories fresh.

Do you have a special scent you save for big moments? Or planning to pick one for your wedding? Share your experiences or plans! 💬

Boyyyyyy was this a BUSY weekend! 😂

My nephew Parker was nominated & CROWNED Homecoming King last weekend, & I was so thankful I got to be there for all of it! 👑🤍

Aside from my own boys, my nieces & nephews hold such a special spot in my heart — & Aunt Mary will NEVER allow that spot to be replaced. 😂

I got to take my little boys to the parade where Parker rode through town in his cousin’s Jeep, then we headed to the game where he was crowned King by another one of our cousins. And then Saturday, I got to hang out with Parker & some of his best friends while we took photos before they headed off to dinner & the Homecoming dance.

It’s pretty dang cool to have watched this group of kids grow up together & now get to see the fine young adults they’re becoming. 🥹🤍 I swear I blinked & suddenly they’re all seniors, driving, going to dances & making memories of their own!

Parker, we are SO proud of you! Aunt Mary will gladly capture these moments for you any day. 📸🤍

Now… somebody please tell me how these babies got old enough to be seniors?! 😭

THE BAGLEYS 🤍

A beautiful North Georgia summer day, a little rain shower just before the ceremony, & a whole lot of love.

I’ve always heard that rain on a wedding day is a sign of blessings, & if that’s true… Jubilee & Chandler are in for a whole lot of them. 🥹🌧️

These two share the sweetest relationship — the kind that is nothing shy of precious. The kind where you can look at them & just *know* they love doing life together.

And this one was especially special for me because Chandler is my cousin. I’ve had the privilege of watching him grow up, & getting to watch him find his person, stand at the altar, & become a husband to Jubilee was something I won’t soon forget.

Their day was filled with laughter, big smiles, a few happy tears, a little rain, & SO much love — all the way around. 🤍

And honestly? I think the rain just made it that much sweeter.

Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs. Bagley. It was such an honor to capture this chapter of your story. 🥂🤍

Wellllll… hi. 👋🏼😂

It’s been a minute around here.

Not because I stopped photographing. Not because I stopped loving it. Life has just been… FULL. 🤍

Between family, work, motherhood & all the things that somehow find their way onto my plate, MEKP has had to share a little more of me than I’d like to admit.

But I’m ready to get back to it. To creating, photographing, telling stories & building something that is *mine.*

And what better way to start than with a family I’ve had the absolute joy of photographing for YEARS. 🥹🤍

This is Christian — one of three teenagers I’ve gotten to watch grow up in front of my camera. And somehow, we’re already at SENIOR YEAR. 🥲

Christian brought every bit of his personality to this session — including ALL of his horns 🎺😂 — and honestly, I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.

And because apparently we don’t let a little rain ruin a good session around here… we just rolled with it. 🌧️

These are the moments I love most about this job. Getting to know a family, watching their kids grow, & then getting to freeze little pieces of who they are *right now.*

Senior year looks pretty dang good on you, Christian. 🤍

And hey… if you’re still here, I’m really glad you are.

I’ve got a LOT to catch you up on. 📷✨
