Hey friends! My name is Lauren Watne (top) and I am the cofounder of Awaken Photography, along with my twin sister Sarah (bottom). We have been having a blast with photography for four years and have absolutely loved the journey it has taken us on.

Our love of photography came at a very young age when our parents bought us our first digital camera. We took so many photos of each other that people thought we didn’t have any other friends. We had so much FUN doing what we loved. Eventually this transitioned into senior portraits, then engagement, anniversary, and baby announcement shoots. We shot our first wedding this summer, which was a marking moment of dreams becoming reality for us.

Capturing moments with photography is one of my deepest passions, and this opens the door to meeting really cool people. Laughing over silly faces and diving into the realness of life with our subjects draws us into connection. Without connection, the camera can never capture the heart of its subject. Photos

Hello! My name is Kristy.  I am the "K" in the "M".  My husband, Michael, is the M, and together we are MK Priceless Photography, a wedding and portrait team based in Wichita, Kansas.

Most mornings I wake up and pinch myself.  It's hard to believe I get to work at something I love and am passionate about.  My first portrait session was over six years ago.  You could hardly call it a portrait session though, more like a favor for a friend who somehow talked me into taking her daughter's senior pictures.  I'm glad she did.  To say I have grown over the years as a photographer and small business owner is an understatement!

My first experience with photography was with my dad's Nikon film camera that I used for a summer course in high school.  At the time I was interested in journalism but photography stole my heart.  Years later, when Michael and I brought our baby boy home from the hospital through adoption, photographing moments became priceless to me.  I've been capturing
