Love Notes

Her attention to detail is unmatched

Hannah + Jordan

Leading up to our wedding day, Maria was so communicative, warm, and professional.  Both my fiancé and I felt so comfortable with Maria. She was relaxed and go with the flow on our wedding day, even with some unexpected delays and changes. She truly listened to what was important to us and executed everything perfectly. We love our images SO much and go back to them regularly. Maria documented our day in the most beautiful and real way. Her attention to detail and the creative way she notices small moments is unmatched. We could not have been happier with our experience with Maria and would encourage anyone to trust her with documenting your love!! 


professional, genuine, and loving

Amelia + Don

Maria went out of her way to capture our personalities, our vibe, and our goals for our various photo shoots. She took our every concern and question seriously and imparted her experience and knowledge of weddings when we so needed it. We received so many compliments from family and friends on the days following our wedding regarding how Maria led the family photos with organized precision... and delivered the most STUNNING photos SO quickly. On top of her outstanding character, Maria was our number one choice due to her unique, exquisitely romantic, documentary style photography.  If we ever need a photographer again in the future, Maria would be our first choice every time.

her greatest goal is to capture your love story

Annika + Zac

She is so passionate, authentic, and creative in her work and it is so clear that her greatest goal is to capture your love story in the most genuine and beautiful way.  It was so easy to trust Maria to capture our wedding and bring all my wedding photography dreams into reality. I was so blown away seeing our wedding gallery (and engagement gallery and bridals) and literally could not be more happy with how it all turned out!! 

made our wedding memorable

Charity + Dylan

Maria’s ability to capture shots that tell a million words is unmatched . Your talent and expertise made our wedding all the more memorable, and we are so grateful for the stunning photos that we will cherish forever. Thank you for being a part of our wedding and for helping us to create lifelong memories.

SHE WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND

Madison + Jerod

She was my own personal hype woman on the day of our wedding & quickly became a close friend of ours and has always treated us like family! When we received our wedding album it was amazing being able to look back on even the small moments I never realized were even captured. Maria truly focuses on the details and every aspect of your day and I am so grateful to have had her with us on such a special day and throughout our engagement I cannot recommend her enough!

she was a delight

Ilona + Joshua

Maria captured our day so wonderfully. She caught sweet and tender shots as well as fun and exciting ones. She thought about everything from the small details to the intimate moments we were going to want to look back on for the rest of our lives. It was a delight working with her and we are so glad she was part of memorializing the best day of our lives!
