Hi, my name is

Meg McNaughton

I'm in love with

photographing Weddings

and Seniors.

My favorite days start with waking up before my seven children to enjoy a slow morning of drinking coffee in my mug-of-the-day and sitting in the glorious warm sun with my chickens (I wish very day could be so serene).

I am not a girly-girl but I love wearing dresses and my favorite accessory is a pair of dangly earrings.

I have a penchant toward nostalgia so 90's music always hits and I will happily rewatch a tv show or movie before looking for a new one. Are you a Gilmore Girls, Anne of Green Gables, or Little Women fan, too?

I am a deep feeler; music, exceptional food, and quality human connection will move me to tears. So, I absolutely will cry at your graduation and/or wedding.

So what can you expect when we first meet?

You know the movie Miss Congeniality?  Picture the scene where Sandra Bullock's character comes out of the hangar with all that swagger....then proceeds to trip and fall. That's me! Except, let's be honest, I probably have a fraction of the swagger I think I have.

I love color but you'll typically find me wearing neutrals, or my signature, white and blue stripes.

I am a goof. I cannot be effortlessly cool no matter how hard I try which generally means I make others feel really good about themselves, Ha!


Essentially, I am an amalgam of many things but if I had to distill myself my photography down to a few words they would be, aesthetics meets goofy-authentic. I'm here for all of it...the beautiful and the real.


MEG'S FAVORITES

Color

One of my favorite things about moving to the south is how GREEN it is here in the summer. I love green. So much so that my home is filled with the color, largely by plants. I think a little green in every room is essential and the plant babies I tend to year round show off the loveliest spectrum of greens.

Drink

I love waking up to the smell of coffee in the morning. First thing I do when I roll out of bed is craft my perfect cup of comfort with warm, frothy breve; a pinch of salt; and a scoop of collagen. If I'm feeling extra fancy, I like to add a little lavender syrup. So good!

Food

Butter. Before you try and tell me butter doesn't count, hear me out! Warm, crunchy sourdough slathered in butter is the actual best. Sautéing veggies or seafood in melted butter is a game changer. Butter dough is the most delicious for making pies. And don't get me started on the absolute decadence of browned butter.

As Amy March says in Little Women, "Oh isn't butter divinity?" (le sigh)

Hobby

Quilt making is my go-to activity for creative expression and, honestly, a little order in this chaotic mom-life. I enjoy creating my own designs but my favorite is improv piecing with scraps. I hand quilt a little, too. I keep an album of photos on my phone, proudly sharing them with anyone who asks.
