September Elopement
My husband and I decided to elope, and we wanted the right person there to capture our special day, Mary was just that and more. She is someone that if you don't know very well, or even at all, can make you feel so comfortable on and off camera
.
Our elopement was just my husband and I so it can be pretty "uneventful" as far as photo ops go. Mary had so many great ideas on where to shoot and how to capture exactly what we wanted. Her ability to make everything feel so effortless, fun and enjoyable is an incredible gift she has. She kept us laughing and made every moment an unforgettable one. Her dedication and creativity show in her photos and we will forever cherish that.
We can't wait to book our next shoot! Thanks again for everything Mary!

Captured the day perfectly.
The moment we met Mary we knew she was the one we needed to hire to shoot our wedding! She made us feel so at ease. Mary is so kind, patient and kept us laughing all day. She truly made our wedding day that much more memorable. She has a real knack for getting amazing and meaningful candid shots that captured our day so perfectly. I love looking back on our photos and would book Mary again in a heart beat. Thank you so much for being such a special part of our day.

We never felt awkward during any staged type or natural photos. We feel its so important to work with a photographer that has a great personality and you can really click with and that's exactly what Mary was like for us! And not to mention the photos were AMAZING!! We had SO many favorites and it was so hard to pick one to print etc because every photo was so amazing and captured all the love and happiness that we felt!
