CAPTURING YOUR BIG AND LITTLE MOMENTS.

We are a husband and wife photo and video TEAM. Ellie does all of the photography and Michael does the videography. We work with couples and individuals with a focus on capturing your stories in a way that feels authentic.

A little about us: we love mountain biking, making homemade ice cream, and rock climbing. We actually met in a climbing gym! Ever since we started dating, we knew that we wanted to start a business together. Fast-forward to today, we now work together as McKinnon Photo & Film! We're so happy you're here!

Ellie + Michael

MEET MICHAEL & ELLIE - THE COUPLE BEHIND THE CAMERAS.

WHAT MAKES US UNIQUE?

01.

YOU ARE NOT LOCKED IN.

Your photo or video selection is not set in stone until one week before the wedding date. What does this mean? Say you aren't sure if you need a 4-hour wedding day package, or a 6-hour package. Pick whichever one you'd like and feel free to upgrade or downgrade if anything changes. Weddings are stressful enough. We don't want to add to that stress.

04.

ENGAGEMENT SESSIONS REFLECT YOUR PERSONALITIES. 

Engagement sessions are meant to be fun and feel like YOU. We encourage our couples to incorporate their hobbies and personalities into their sessions. If you and your fiancé like to kayak, let's go kayaking. If you both love to read, let's go have a picnic and bring some books. If your first date was at In-N-Out, let's go there! We want to capture you in YOUR element.

03.

NO TRAVEL FEES FOR ANYWHERE IN UTAH.

We know what it's like. You finally decide to purchase a high-ticket service and think you're all set. Then, you find out there's a service fee, or a travel fee, or a processing fee. We're not like that. What you see here is what you get. No extra fees that sneak up on you. Yes, it's really all included, even photo permit fees for state parks. Want to take your bridals in Zion? No extra charge. Your wedding is in St. George? No extra charge. Engagements in Logan? No extra charge.

02.

WE ARE A PHOTO AND VIDEO TEAM.

This means less schedules to deal with, one contract, one payment plan, and seamless coordination between your photographer and videographer. Our unified approach ensures that both the photography and videography perfectly complement each other, capturing your day from all angles without any overlap or missed moments. With consistent style and quality, you’ll receive a cohesive collection of photos and videos that beautifully tell your love story.

There are hundreds of photographers and videographers out there. Why choose us?

Taking pictures with Ellie was such a great experience! I was a little nervous to get my picture taken but it was so much fun! I felt very comfortable and Ellie was there to hype me up the entire time! She had poses in mind and told me exactly what I needed to do so I was under no pressure! All in all great!!

Okay! Where do I even start?! The McKinnons were the best photographers ever! They were so fun to work with and our bridals are my dream pictures! everything about them was perfect! I can’t stop obsessing over our pictures and our wedding video made us both cry it was so beautiful. I can’t recommend them enough and we will definitely be taking pictures with them again too.

It was a dream working with McKinnon Photo and Film! We had such a fun time and it shows in our pictures they took. They made everything so comfortable for me and my husband.  We had them do our pregnancy announcement pictures, and they did an incredible job capturing our excitement and joy. These moments they captured will be treasured forever in our home. If you want people constantly telling you how good your pictures look, book with them ASAP!

I did a photography session with McKinnon Photo and Film and it was so much fun! Usually when I get pictures taken I tend to feel like a burden and that the photographer doesn’t truly want to be there, but I never felt that way with Ellie. Ellie was so incredible at posing me and being so genuine and enthusiastic, her passion for photography was contagious and you could tell she loved it and loved having me there! She made me feel so gorgeous and did incredible. Jaw dropped when I got the pictures back, they exceeded my expectations. I would 11/10 recommend McKinnon Photo and Film!!
