WTP Pictures has added director McKenzie Thompson to its talent roster. Launching her career as a still photographer, she has over a decade of experience shooting stills and spots for skincare, cosmetics, hair care, and fashion brands. The Brooklyn-based director has helmed work for top brands including Target, Neutrogena, E.L.F. Cosmetics, Pandora and Herbal Essences, and recently shot a campaign for Wind Creek Casino.
McKenzie’s unwavering commitment to diversity and inclusivity extends through all of her work, bringing a passion for partnering with clients who prioritize equal representation across gender, sexual orientation, body type, ability, and ethnicity. In an industry where authenticity and diversity matter more than ever, McKenzie’s dedication to these values aligns seamlessly with WTP Pictures’ ethos. McKenzie had been freelancing prior to joining WTP Pictures.
WTP Pictures partner/executive producer Jesse Ford said of McKenzie, “Her approach to capturing people in a fresh and colorful way aligns perfectly with the team we are building and a style of work we are excited to bring to our clients and agency partnerships. Most importantly, she is an amazing human. Her gentle demeanor with talent, whether celebrities or real people, as well as her confidence with client and agency teams, matches our expectation of the production process, which is putting people first.”
McKenzie added, “I was drawn to the way WTP Pictures supports their artists and I’m so excited to make our partnership official. I think we can make great work together and I can’t wait to see what we do next.”
