About
I specialize in intimate, emotional and playful portrait sessions. I provide an experience, not just a transaction. I’m here to build relationships and create art, not just make money. Booking with me means that you’ll be taken care of from the point of brainstorming your session, till long after you have received your finished gallery! You dream it and I’ll take care of the rest.

Hired on Thumbtack
I needed some product photography on short notice and Mayberry was super to work with. Emily asked all the right questions and the work was exactly what I needed. I highly recommend her!

Hired on Thumbtack
This was the first time I ever hired a photographer and I have to say I was extremely glad I did to not have to worry about gathering photos. Emily responded very quickly and she showed up early and was very professional and friendly with everyone. She captured all the special moments and guests and did not rush through the process. Pictures were awesome in a timely manner. Thank you Emily.

Emily was right on time for the photo session. She took her time with my family even though some of us are slow movers because of age and other disabilities. Five stars

Our entire family LOVED working with Emily so much we made a pact to hire her every year and anytime we’re together in between. Personable, talented, and an all around pleasure to work with. Even the guys in the family didn’t hate picture day because she made it so fun. Just to prove it, I made my husband take a picture of me and my new favorite photographer!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My prices are competitive, fair, and based on hours worked and number of individuals being photographed. I’m happy to discuss payment plans for anyone who needs payment options.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First I’ll point you toward my work on Instagram and Thumbtack to make sure you vibe with my style of posing and editing, then we’ll have a pick a color palette together and discuss the vision your want for your session. Afterwards we’ll decide on a time and location.
What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?
I’d encourage you to think about the type of editing and posing you like before hiring a photographer! It’s much easier to find someone when you know what you love.
