Trip the Light Photography-
Mackenzie Rios
Mackenzie has had a love and passion for photography since childhood. She took classes in high school and college, and always stepped in to help a friend with a photoshoot before deciding to take a more professional approach in 2020. She loves working with people and suggesting poses, and her mind is always working on how she can plan her next styled/creative shoot.
Mackenzie is experienced with lifestyle photography and portraits, and focuses her work on this, rather than events (with the exception of weddings, which she does love to capture!)
Her body of work has been built upon capturing sessions for family, maternity, engagement, graduation, birthday milestones, and prom portraits.
At the end of the day, her core purpose is to give her customers a fun, and memorable experience at the actual photoshoot.
Something that really sets Mackenzie apart, is that she truly provides a ton of posing options to create a variety for delivered photo galleries that her customers can look back on forever.

Wedding Pricing
Let’s find the best investment package for you!
In addition to full Wedding Packages, I offer “Wedding Couple Sessions” that could be perfect in various scenarios.
~Perhaps you want to have romantic quality time BEFORE your Wedding Day to avoid a stressful timeline, or potentially missing desired shots on your Wedding Day. If this is the case, we can definitely incorporate a “First Look” in a Pre-Wedding Session.
~Maybe you didn’t have the chance to capture as many romantic moments and spend as much time as you’d hoped for on your Wedding Day with just you and your new spouse, and you’d like a Post-Wedding Session.
~Or you may be planning to have a small wedding, elopement, or ceremony only…and you want just a special session focused on your capturing you and your partner’s love.
~Perhaps you got the photos you wanted on your Wedding Day but now you want to do a fun and unique “Wreck the Dress” session.
The possibilities are endless, and I am always up for new ideas!

Testimonials
Check out what our clients have to say!
Mackenzie is an awesome photographer. She did a photoshoot that included me and my siblings and it went so smoothly. She came with a variety of poses which was great because we were moving for the entire hour we had. There were five in my group, two of which were young, and Kenzie was able to keep everyone focused. The photos were beautiful, she did a wonderful job editing and making us all look great. I will be using her services for future photoshoots!! If you are thinking of booking with Kenzie, STOP THINKING, and do it. You will not regret it!!
Thank you, Kenzie!!!
I hired Trip the Light Photography for my maternity photo shoot. She was on time and very professional! I was kinda shy because a lot of the photos I was showing my belly (of course) and she made me feel so comfortable. Not only did me and my husband have a great experience, our photos came out BEAUTIFULLY!! Worth every penny!! We ended up making thank you cards out of my maternity photos. I got so many compliments! I have contacted Trip the Light Photography for my daughter’s first birthday!
Working with Mackenzie at Trip the Light Photography is always a pleasure. She is friendly, professional, and creative! She comes with her own ideas and welcomes ours as well, and most importantly, she does her best to make us look good (suggesting flattering angles, re-taking the picture a few times when the kids aren’t smiling, etc).
Mackenzie went ABOVE & BEYOND to capture my wedding day! You won’t find someone like her! Best choice ever!
Amazed with the turn out of our pictures. Mackenzie went above and beyond for our Mother’s Day session, she was patient and was so pleasant to work with. Can’t wait to book another session. She’s the BEST!!
Mackenzie was phenomenal! Her communication was perfect. She was on time and gave great suggestions to locations. During the photoshoot, she made sure my fiancé and I were comfortable and gave a ton of different poses to work with. I recommend her and would definitely book her again in the future. Thank you for making our engagement photoshoot special!
Mackenzie is awesome. She has done our family photos for the last 10+ years. She’s so good I hired her to do my 20th High School Reunion. She did a fabulous job. Everyone was happy with her service. I highly recommend her. She’s professional and fun to work with.
Thank you so much for the amazing family photos you provided. We are very grateful that you were able to take the time to fit us in your busy schedule. We truly loved the experience and the images you created with the beautiful background.
I received the photos and WOW! They are so beautiful! It was so smooth working with you. Especially with my baby girl and excited dog all over the place you were so patient with us. Also the sweetest as well!

Thank you so much for doing this giveaway! You have no idea how much I needed it. This is the 1st time I’ve taken professional pictures and you made the experience special for my daughter and I. You exceeded my expectations and you were so sweet giving us directions on how to pose. You were also very detailed throughout the process from beginning to end. Even providing instructions on how to arrive to the destination preventing me from getting lost. I’m super pleased with the pictures and happy with the quick turnaround! You did an amazing job and will definitely book you in the future!
Mackenzie is a great photographer, I have had 2 sessions with her and she has captured amazing photos of my family and I. I have a lil one and Mackenzie was able to make her smile and laugh to capture a great memory.
I absolutely loved my graduation photos!! Mackenzie is AMAZING, she made the whole shoot so much fun. I definitely recommend Trip the Light Photography to capture your special moment!
Mackenzie is the best photographer I’ve ever worked with! She communicates promptly and professionally. She comes up with fun, creative poses and props to use in each session. She takes our preferences and suggestions into account. She is very sweet and patient with kids, even those with special needs! I would never think to use a different photographer and I highly recommend her to all!
Trip the Light Photography has been doing our family pictures for years. This year was especially important to me because it was my son’s graduation from high school. I knew the minute we booked Mackenzie that I could depend on her to produce the best pictures for this very important event. I can’t believe how awesome the pictures came out. She is so talented and so easy to work with. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my family memories.
My experience was amazing! Mackenzie did a great job at creating a memorable experience and provided me with high quality images that I absolutely loved!!! She was a pleasure to work with.
Mackenzie was such a pleasure to work with!! She is professional, kind, and very talented!! She gave my husband and I great instruction on how to pose, suggested great locations within the location we chose. Her husband who assisted her in the shoot was also very kind, courteous, and professional. She captured a very special moment in our lives and we are very grateful. Would love to work with her again in the near future!
First time using Mackenzie and I must say the experience was terrific. She was great to work with and could not be any nicer. The location was perfect with all the natural light coming through the hills. She had all the extra props we needed to make the moment more special for my niece! Thank you for capturing these precious moments for us. I would highly recommend her to EVERYONE! I am already brainstorming for the next family photo!
I am a new member of thumbtack so I was really nervous trying to find someone to work with. Mackenzie made it all worth it!! She was very patient and understanding with all the ideas I gave to her about what I was hoping to get! Then when it came to the day she was so sweet and gave great direction for how she wanted everyone to stand and even got all the important tiny details that most people wouldn’t think of!! I am so glad my family and I go to work with her!!! The photos turned out amazing and I can’t wait to hang them on my walls!
Mackenzie was great! Her and her husband were extremely friendly and helpful. She is accommodating when discussing locations/concerns and her pricing is reasonable. The photos exceeded all of my expectations. I appreciated that they made me feel so comfortable.
Mackenzie did a fantastic engagement photo session! She was creative, fun, and professional. We loved the photos. She did such a wonderful job we decided to hire her for the wedding also!
Loved working with Trip the Light Photography for our Salon Photoshoot! She captured exactly what we were looking for, and showcased our talented beautiful stylists and aesthetician! Thank you for creating wonderful images and for your professionalism.
Are there more stars to give?!! Out of 5, I wanna give out 10. She’s an amazing artist. For it to be my first time with her out of many coming soon, I loved it. She made us feel welcome. Our session felt so romantic. The editing is so good. Love her artwork.
This was a wonderful experience! Professional, kind, and great to work with.
I am so pleased with our family photos. Mackenzie was so pleasant and worked with us to make it a great experience. You were so patient and flexible with my grandkids and the pictures turned out great!
Mackenzie was such a pleasure to work with. She was on time and found a great location. She knew exactly what we were looking for and truly delivered. We will continue to use her for all family shoots.
Our engagement pictures turned out BEAUTIFUL!!! Couldn’t have asked for anything better!
Mackenzie did an amazing job on our Engagement shoot which showed up in our inbox SO FAST! We cannot stop scrolling through the photos and love to share them with our family and friends! She was timely, professional, and encouraged us to scroll through Pinterest to find some inspiration for poses too. She is so talented and fun to work with.
Mackenzie is a-MAZ-ing! My best friend and I did our college grad pictures with her and she is awesome! I’m such an awkward person in front of a camera but she made me feel so comfortable and got some amazing pictures of us. I already booked her for my Master’s grad pictures as well!!!
I also used Mackenzie for cookies for my sister’s bridal shower. I sued the cookies as decor and arty favors and those are the only party favors I had had completely gone! Everyone loved the designs (bee theme) and said the cookies tasted just as good.
I would use Mackenzie for ANY of her services provided.
I had such a wonderful experience! I wanted to do photos with my daughter and my dog and she was so wonderful and patient. My puppy is very large and playful and she caught the most adorable and perfect photos of my little family!
We had a great time and experience with our photoshoot. She was professional and friendly.
We loved getting our photos done by Radiant Events. They were very patient with our crazy 2yr old! We received beautiful Christmas photos! My favorite family pictures by far! The cookies were an amazing touch too!
Mackenzie was a joy to work with. The shoot was really fun, she is a delightful person. She gave me good guidance for poses. Her photos were well edited and on time. I can’t say enough good things!
Mackenzie is an amazing photographer! She did my engagement and wedding pictures and I couldn’t be happier with how they turned out! I would 100% recommend her to anyone who asks!
She also made the cookies for my bridal shower and they were such a huge hit! And delicious!
David was our DJ for the wedding and he kept the music coming all night, the dance floor was never empty and everyone had so much fun dancing! I couldn’t have asked for a better due for our wedding!
Mackenzie was awesome! She responded right away when I reached out to her and was communicative throughout the whole process. She had a lot of patience, and really took the time to get in all the details. The Quinceanera pictures turned out so beautiful!
Mackenzie was wonderful. She was very prompt and professional in her responses to my questions. She was gracious and was able to accommodate our very last minute family photo session request. The whole experience was stress-free and we all had fun taking photos; which is not usually the case with a family of 8. She was open to our photo ideas and she provided different props.
She sent me our photo gallery in record time and when I opened it and saw the first photo, my heart stopped. She captured our family in the most beautiful photos. Everyone was smiling! She also was open to having our dog in the photoshoot. Priceless!
Got our engagement photos back from Mackenzie, a photographer in SoCal, and I am absolutely obsessed with the way they came out! Mackenzie is absolutely amazing! She made my fiancé and I feel comfortable and was great at making us smile and laugh!
My flower top session was awesome. This was my first time meeting Mackenzie. She is amazing and very professional. I would highly recommend her, you will not be disappointed with her work.
Mackenzie did a wonderful job on our son’s graduation photos. She had great ideas for poses and locations. She got the photos back to us quickly.
Mackenzie ensured I was comfortable with every pose and made the experience easy.
Loved how my photos turned out and I enjoyed the photoshoot! They were friendly and if I have to take another photoshoot, I would call them again!
Mackenzie was absolutely amazing! She brought my ideas to life and truly made me feel so comfortable during the whole session. She also made sure to ask what shots I wanted.
