Introduction

It’s easy to get caught up in the details and forget about the things that really matter. The lasting memories. These special moments will be cherished for generations. That’s why all photo packages I provide are customized specifically for your day and have no cap on delivered images. This means not only will you have beautiful, mantle-ready images. But the small candid and fun photos as well. I've been working as an artist for over a decade and understand how stressful it can be to hand over such important moments to a stranger. I will work with you in all aspects from initial ideas to edits along the way. Engagement, Proposal, Portrait, Adoption, and Mini-Sessions available!

My husband and I are both introverts, so when it came to choosing a photographer for our small wedding, we knew we needed someone who would make us feel comfortable and at ease. From the moment we met Mary, we knew she was the perfect fit. Her calm, understanding, and genuinely kind nature helped melt away our nerves and allowed us to be fully present and relaxed throughout the day. There were a few unexpected hiccups, like guests arriving late for photos, but Mary handled everything with so much grace and professionalism. She stayed flexible, kept the energy light, and made sure nothing felt rushed or stressful. Despite the delays, she managed to capture every moment so beautifully and effortlessly. Mary’s personality and work ethic were exactly what we needed. She’s not only incredibly talented behind the camera but also one of those rare people who instantly makes you feel seen, supported, and completely at ease. Her presence made our wedding day feel even more special, and looking back at our photos, we’re just in awe of how perfectly she captured the love and joy of the day. If you’re looking for someone who is not only skilled but also kind, calm, and genuinely invested in making your experience meaningful, Mary is the one. We’re so grateful she was part of our wedding day.

Working with Mary was a pleasure. She was very communicative throughout and transparent about the pricing and process. The day of the shoot, she made my whole family feel at ease, and I couldn’t be happier with the final photos. Thanks Mary!

Mary was absolutely incredible! My husband and I have had professional photos taken before, but we’ve never felt as relaxed and comfortable as we did with her. She truly has a talent for making you feel at ease. Not only that, but Mary did an outstanding job capturing the special moments between my husband and me during the photo shoot. We couldn’t be happier with the results!

Details: Couples portrait • Natural / environmental (photographed in an outdoor setting) • Candid (captured in the moment) • Outdoors • Digital or online download • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

An authentic connection is my goal. The first step is always to set up a meeting in person, via video, or by phone.
