We all want photos that authentically reflect the heart of our relationships. We fear our photos won't accurately represent our experiences & emotions. As your photographer, I believe your photos should mirror the essence of your wedding day. They should feel unique to you & leave you feeling known, celebrated & nostalgic for decades to come.

I am here to joyfully & intentionally tell your story through your photos. As a celebrator (your personal hype-woman), a storyteller, and an encourager, I promise to dive into your vision & life to genuinely & passionately illustrate your relationship. 

you deserve wedding photos that tell your story & bring you back to the feelings, emotion & nostalgia of your wedding day. 

YOUR LIFE + LOVE DESERVES TO BE CELEBRATED + DOCUMENTED

choosing a wedding photographer can feel overwhelming at times. let's walk through some common concerns or questions! 

01

This is completely normal! I'll work with you guys to ensure you feel comfortable. I always devote time to getting to know you, & I'll send you a questionnaire to help me get to know more about you, your relationship, how you spend your time together, & more. At your engagement session & wedding, I will prompt & guide you as necessary throughout the day to make sure you feel comfortable! My goal is to always produce raw emotion while artfully & intentionally prompting you so you don't have to worry about posing yourselves!

This is why I emphasize the importance of getting to know the couples I get to serve! I spend intentional time getting to know YOU & your specific relationship. I strive to document you in spaces & interactions that relay your love authentically.  Your wedding photographer spends A LOT of your day with you-- it is sooo important to feel known & celebrated by them. By knowing you & your relationship story, I'm able to document your day in a way that is catered specifically to you.

Let's hop on the phone or grab coffee/drinks, & get to know each other! Spending time getting to know a photographer's personality helps you approach your wedding day with SO much more peace knowing what you can expect from them. I will be with you in the beginning moments of the day alllll the way to the last hugs to your people-- it's so important to feel confident in your trust of me being by your side & being a supporter of you two. 

"How do I decide if we are a good fit with our photographer?"

Maddie was the BEST person to have not only document our engagement shoot/wedding day but to walk through this season with us! She is truly the sweetest soul who brings an amazing energy to the space she is in and makes you feel so seen throughout the entire process. Maddie listens to the vision you have to perfectly capture your day and made our whole experience feel so fun! Our engagement shoot to this day is one of my favorite date nights with my husband due to how loved Maddie made us feel the entire time.
Maddie's pictures truly speak volumes of her intentionality, dedication, and her eye for the perfect shots for your day! She captured moments I don't have the words for and when I look through my wedding gallery, I feel all the emotions I felt that day. I continue to be blown away by not only her work, but the way she is able to connect with each couple and make the pictures fit everyone just right!

Maddie is the BEST!! If you are searching for a photographer to capture some lovely birthday pictures, fun engagement pictures, and absolutely dreamy wedding photos Maddie is your girl! She is such a joy to be around and makes your experience so fun. She has always sent our finalized photos to us in a timely manner and provides so many beautiful options.

Maddie was absolutely incredible for both our engagement and wedding photos! She was very easy to work, has a warm/friendly personality, and made the process feel very natural. You can tell she genuinely cares about her work and I'd highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a photographer for any occasion. I cannot count the amount of compliments we received from friends and family regarding how beautiful our photos were. I am so grateful for Maddie and her ability to capture the best day of our lives. We will cherish our photos forever.

the experience 


what are the next steps??

I don't take this opportunity to photograph you lightly-- not one bit. I see photographing you and your relationship as an honor & a joy. I want to truly learn about your story, the things you guys enjoy doing together, how you met, what your goals are as a couple. All these things help me photograph you guys in your true form, in raw emotion.

Getting photos taken is no small thing. My hope is for you to feel free to be raw, to be genuine & to truly let go & HAVE FUN. This should be a date-night-type-of-feeling! Lots of the couples I've served have said their engagement session felt like one of their favorite dates-- that is my hope for you, too.  I'm stoked to walk with you through this process & make sure you guys feel known, celebrated and photographed in a way that makes you love each other all the more.
