When your sister's boyfriend becomes someone you genuinely enjoy having around, you know you have to get some good senior pictures of him! 😂

Over time, I've really come to enjoy having Seth around. He's always willing to help when needed, my boys absolutely love him, and he's one of those people who can make you laugh without even trying! ❤️ (No, we aren't calling him Uncle Seth, 😂)

For his senior pictures, we made sure to include a few of his favorite things - his pups, his pickup, and his bow! Of course, we also spent the entire session laughing because apparently, being serious for pictures just wasn't happening! 😂

Seth, thank you for putting up with all my ideas and making this session so much fun! I'm glad I got to capture this milestone for you, and I hope you love these pictures as much as we enjoyed taking them!

Now let's get you graduated! 🎓 📸

💍🏁 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄, 𝐋𝐀𝐏𝐒, & 𝐀 𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐋𝐄 𝐇𝐎𝐑𝐒𝐄𝐏𝐎𝐖𝐄𝐑! 🏁💍

Aiden wanted a few engagement photos with his two favorite things... his fiancée, Teigan, and his race car! ❤️🏎️

Teigan and Aiden had already taken their engagement photos back home, but they knew there was one thing missing... photos with the race car! That's where I came in! 📸

We squeezed in a quick mini engagement session at the track before the last racing weekend of Aiden's season, and I absolutely love getting to capture moments like these! 🥹❤️

Because let's be honest... when racing is a big part of your life, why not include it in some of your biggest memories, too?! 🏁💍

Congratulations, Teigan & Aiden! Thank you for letting me capture a little piece of your story! ❤️

🏁📸 From the track to senior pictures! At the track!

What started out last summer as trying something new has turned into something pretty special! 💜 What began as taking photos at the motocross tracks has now turned into riders asking me to capture their senior pictures, and honestly, how cool is that?!

It's Dylan's turn to graduate! 🎓 And of course, being one of my motocross boys, there was ONE condition for his senior pictures... both of his dirt bikes HAD to be included! 😂

Dylan was up for all my crazy ideas, moving from spot to spot as we tried different locations and poses. He stayed focused the entire time, making sure we got the shots we wanted. And once we got all the serious stuff out of the way? It was time to have some fun with a few wheelies! 🤘🏁

Dylan, thank you for trusting me to capture this exciting chapter of your life! I hope your senior year is one to remember, and I can't wait to see what comes next for you! 🏍️🎓

Also, thank you to Mandan Motocross for giving us a great place for pictures!! It means so much that you all trusted me to come out there!! I wish I was able to make it to the banquet, but I will be back in 2027!!

First.. I owe you all a little apology! 💜

I know my photography has been a little quiet lately, and I'm sorry for being closed and unavailable as much as I have been. I've had A LOT happening behind the scenes!

If you know MAK'n Signs and Graphics, you may have seen the big announcement - we officially took over Sign Pro Bismarck Mandan in Mandan on October 1st! 🎉

Between buying a business, getting settled into a shop, and figuring out how to juggle ALL the things... photography had to take a little bit of a backseat.

𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐈'𝐦 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤! 🙌📸

MAK'n Photography is officially back up and running 𝙁𝙐𝙇𝙇 𝙏𝙄𝙈𝙀!!

I will still be helping out at Sign Pro when needed, but I want you all to know that 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗵𝗼𝘁𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗽𝗵𝘆 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝘀𝘂𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝘁. I've missed my camera, my editing, and most importantly, YOU GUYS! 💜

And there's actually some pretty exciting news that came from all this...

🏫 𝙈𝘼𝙆'𝙣 𝙋𝙝𝙤𝙩𝙤𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙝𝙮 𝙞𝙨 𝙣𝙤𝙬 𝙤𝙛𝙛𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙎𝘾𝙃𝙊𝙊𝙇 𝙋𝙄𝘾𝙏𝙐𝙍𝙀𝙎!

Yep! I now have an actual shop space, which means I finally have room for a 𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗜 𝗦𝗧𝗨𝗗𝗜𝗢! 😍

More details about school pictures and mini studio sessions will be coming 𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗬 soon, so stay tuned!

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for being patient and understanding while we tackle this crazy new adventure. Your support of our little businesses means more than you know. 💜

Time so show off another senior I got the chance to meet!!

Jacelyn has a 𝐵𝐸𝒜𝒰𝒯𝐼𝐹𝒰𝐿 home and land that we were able to use on an 𝘼𝙈𝘼𝙕𝙄𝙉𝙂 fall evening!

Besides doing senior pictures, which included her horses, cats, and clarinet, we also did some family pictures!

Thank you Jacelyn and your family for inviting me out! It was a great time and I can't wait to share all your photos with you!
