Hiiii there!! I am Kendall
Born and raised in small town Texas. I am married to my high school sweetheart, Grant.We live in the small town that we met, and where I capture most of my work! It’s about 30 miles west of Waco, Texas! A little town called Valley Mills. We just welcomed our first little mini into the world in 2023 and she is the light of our lives!
I have been doing professional photography for 7 years now. I shot my first wedding at the end of my first year of photography and I have not looked back since. The last five years has been full of so many SPECIAL wedding days! I still can’t believe I get to do this for a living. It truly brings me joy being apart of your wedding days.
I graduated from college with a degree in General Business. I always knew I wanted to create something of my own, but I wasn't quite sure where exactly life and my busy mind would lead me. I started a small pop-up shop right after graduation in 2015. I made jewelry and sold clothes and absolutely LOVED what I was doing. BUT, it wasn't "it". I still felt a little lost in life, I wasn't fully providing for myself and it started to feel stagnant and suffocating. Collecting inventory felt wasteful, and I couldn't rely on just myself for labor. Anyways, you get it. It just wasn't working out the way I had dreamt it would. During this fashion quest it dawned on me that I started buying clothes that wouldn't sell, but clothes that would photograph 'so cool' on my models for our photoshoots. I kept catching myself telling my husband that 'I just wanted to be a photographer'. It took about 6 months before I finally felt that I just had to try this! I am a perfectionist so I knew I had to feel fully capable before I really took the plunge. I don't half ass anything.. I will use my full ass or I won't do it. ;)
I am so thankful that I listened to my heart and transitioned Roaming Wild from a boutique to this amazing business that fulfills me creatively. I truly have not felt lost on my life’s journey a day since. This is it. This is what I am meant to be doing. I feel it in my heart. Every time I end a photoshoot I can physically feel my heart smiling. Meeting strangers at the beginning of a shoot that feel like friends by the time we leave is one of the coolest things in my life. I'm an introvert, so without this career I don't think I would have ever gotten to meet and get to know so many wonderful people!
I can't wait to get to know you if you choose to trust me with your moments.
XO-
I know we are going to get along great!!
Things I love:
Being outdoors. You can rarely catch me inside. If I had to narrow down the hardest part of my career (because I am not going to lie this one is pretty great) it would be having to edit inside on a beautiful sunny day. But the best part?? I get to spend almost every evening of those beautiful days, chasing the sunset with whichever couple or senior or family I’m with that night!
I really love a quiet night in with my guy. I’m very much a homebody! I am happiest snuggled in with my husband and animals!
I love love love yard work.
I’m part tomboy, and part girlie girl. I love working with my hands and a day of hard work leaves my soul refreshed.
I’m an Aquarius, and my Enneagram is 2w3. I am a big softie!
Empath. Big listener. Overachiever.
OKAY! ENOUGH ABOUT WHO’S BEHIND THE LENS
I WANT TO KNOW YOUR LOVE STORY
Who you are as a couple. How you met. The quirks, inside jokes, hobbies and passions that make up your life together. I want to know what’s important to you, and your future plans together. Let start building that friendship ASAP. Tell me every little thing that will help me understand and get to know you.

KENDALL IS AMAZING!
I had been following her Instagram page for the longest time and always knew I wanted her to photograph my wedding. She makes you feel so comfortable and like you have been friends for years. I had problems with our wedding venue and makeup artist and she was right there making sure everything was ok, and knew exactly what to say to ease my mind. She helped out in so many ways, more than she knew!
