I am Miranda and I am the primary photographer for Magnolia Grace Photography. My husband and I started photographing weddings somewhat by chance about 10 years ago. I had loved photography since High School, and had gotten a new camera for Christmas. A friend of ours had a photographer that had cancelled at last minute and asked if I could do the wedding. WHOA! I wanted to help so I agreed! It was much harder than I expected, but I also loved the excitement and joy of being a part of someone's special day. I became hooked on photography and started studying and reading everything I could find to become a better photographer. We grew our business for about 7 years until our little girl was born, and then we took a 2 year sabbatical to focus on her. Recently, we again were asked to jump in unexpectedly at a wedding where the photographer fell ill (although this time, we were much more prepared!) and God began opening doors for us to photograph a few more weddings. I began to dream of photography again and realized it was time to come back!
We changed our name from Mimi Kay Photography to Magnolia Grace Photography to reflect this change in our lives. Our little girl's middle name is Grace, and my mom's favorite flower is Magnolia. We put these together, and our new brand was born. We have reduced our prices for 2020 in order to rebuild our brand and begin this journey afresh.
Our dream is to photograph your happiest moments-- weddings, family sessions, milestones, fun mini sessions, and special events! We focus on capturing emotion in our images and our style includes minimal posing and more of a focus on creating interactions that will create beautiful memories for a lifetime.

"Not only are Brian & Miranda good friends, they are also AMAZING people & INCREDIBLE photographers. They stepped up to the plate on short notice & helped photograph our wedding when unforeseen circumstances arised with our photographer. They got the best shots & made my husband & I feel so comfortable & natural while doing so. I know beyond a shadow of doubt that my wedding photos will turn out beautiful. I thank God for them in our life. Miranda & Brian, thank you for everything you do! we love y'all ❤"

"Miranda and Brian took our engagement pictures as well as our wedding pictures, and we LOVE them!! They made everything run so smooth and were very professional, while also making us feel comfortable getting more natural shots. Miranda listened to my requests to make sure that I got all of the pictures that were really important to us, and we were SO pleased with the results. They are such a sweet, encouraging, humble couple that enjoy capturing special moments. I highly recommend them!"

"Mimi Kay Photography was absolutely amazing!!! Miranda and her husband Brian are great people and really listen to what you want. We met with them a few weeks before the wedding to make sure everything was covered as far as what all photos I wanted to make sure to get and the when and where to be. On my wedding day, it started sprinkling rain right before the ceremony and we had to wait it our for a few minutes the photographers just kept taking photos of my wedding party just to make sure we covered every"
