ABOUT ME
Hi, I'm Madison McKay
I was born and raised in Murfreesboro, TN, and graduated from Middle Tennessee State University in 2020. In 2019 I started taking my interest in photography seriously while working in Real Estate as my day job. In 2022, I decided to take on photography full-time! July 2022 was a big month as I married the love of my life, quit my job of five years, and moved to Cookeville, TN! I am so proud to call the Upper Cumberland my home! I now spend my time photographing everything in sight, playing with my pup, and helping my husband cover high school sports for the Upper Cumberland Reporter.
I am a huge fan of The Office, Criminal Minds, and terrible movies! In my free time I enjoy picking up new hobbies like bread making, watercolor, and small DIY crafts. My world revolves around my dog, family, and God. I am a fan of the Tennessee Vols, Preds, Titans and the Atlanta Braves even though they tend to break my heart from time to time. In my free time I love to go to sporting events, concerts, and comedy shows! We are big fans of Hardy and Morgan Wallen in this house.
I can't wait to get to know you and hopefully capture some of life's great moments for you soon!

“Madison was great! She was able to accommodate my request in a short timeframe. She went above and beyond by researching amazing locations for a wedding portrait, even finding a studio with a mantel which was exactly what we wanted. She was highly responsive to emails and had a fast turnaround with pictures. I definitely recommend her and would book again!“
