I contacted Marisa about a two-hour family session (one hour for our family together together, and then one hour for quality pictures of my stepdaughter). I could not be happier with our whole experience, and our photos are going to be treasured memories for our family. First, Marisa is incredibly organized, responsive, and committed to her craft - you can tell from the first email that she wants you to have an experience you will remember and that you end up with photos that you truly love. She will consult with you on your vision for your photo session beforehand and I really enjoyed that because it definitely makes you part of the process (if you want to be - if you do not want to be, then Marisa is definitely happy to share her vision and ideas with you, as well, and to take the lead). And then there's the day of the photo session -- and that's where the magic really happens because she captures not just the posed photos (and they are wonderful) but she captures the "in between takes" ... and those, by far, are the ones you treasure above all. The uncontrolled laughter, the silliness - those are what memories are made of. All in all, I wholeheartedly recommend Marisa for your next family photo session.

Marisa offer's Newborn & Maternity Portraits for my clients. Her beautiful work is displayed in my office and everyone absolutely loves it!Her work speaks for itself. Locations chosen for maternity shoots are spot on! Expecting mothers are comfortable with her and are left feeling amazing! Newborn sessions... I could go on an on. Have you seen her gorgeous work? What I love is she puts new parents at ease. She's gentle and extremely patient, she allows plenty of time and always gets more than one PERFECT magazine quality shot. An absolute must for announcements. I can recommend her to my clients knowing they're expectations will be blown away!

My family has had two portrait sessions with Marisa McDonald so far, and the sessions were the best investments we've ever made. We will treasure these images for the rest of our lives. Marisa's eye is amazing, her work is topnotch, and the experience is totally professional and organized every step of the way. I have nothing but praise.
