Alexandra + Nathan

She’s so good if you’re camera shy, and tweaks your poses to make sure you’re picture perfect –something I wish other photographers would have done in the past. She’s my top recommendation you want effortless, genuine smiles- as it’s impossible not to have them around her!

The best experience we’ve ever had with a photographer.

Sarah + Stephen

You will enjoy having there on one of the most important days of your life. Every memory will be captured and you’ll enjoy looking back seeing those moments captured so perfectly. We can’t describe how happy we are that we chose Mary as our photographer.

If Mary has your date available then stop looking, you’ve found “The One!”

Hannah+ Justin

Look no further for the best photographer you could get. The most beautiful, real pictures to last for years to come. She's also just a joy to be around and made photo taking much less stressful.

 I loved how she captured the simple moments, not just the poses.

After photographing more than a hundred weddings over the past few years, we’ve found that we’re not the perfect fit for every couple. That’s why this process begins with a conversation. We want to hear everything—how you met, funny first date stories, and how y’all got engaged.

We’ll get to know one another, talk about the details of your day, answer any questions you might have about working with us and figure out if we’re the best fit for each other.

LET's Chat

We're here as a resource beyond photography—whether you're looking for engagement session outfit recommendations, timeline advice, or vendor referrals.

Even if you're working with a wedding planner or you're planning a simple wedding, there are likely still a lot of moving pieces left leading up to your big day. We've photographed more than 150 weddings in the past few years and we're happy to share everything we've learned along the way! 

Wedding Advice

We’re big fans of engagement sessions for a few reasons. That's why we include a complimentary engagement session with every wedding package. 

Engagement sessions can take place anywhere from immediately following a proposal to just a few days before the wedding. We’ve found that there isn’t a “good” or “bad” time to take your photos. We normally plan sessions based on a particular “look” a couple has in mind, spring flowers for example, or based on schedules. 

Engagement Session

We check-in about a month or two before the wedding to start chatting about timeline specifics, special details, family formal shot lists, special traditions and anything else we should know about your big day. 

While we normally don't send this questionnaire until closer to the wedding, please don't hesitate to let us know if you have questions during the planning process!

The Big Day

You can expect your photos to be delivered via an online gallery within about three weeks of your wedding. At that time, we'll also send over details about preserving your images through prints and albums. 

We hope the relationship doesn't end after we deliver your photographs. We want to hear about the adventures of married life. And if you decide to have kids, we'd love to document your growing family.

THE COLLECTIONS

MORE DETAILS

One of the best ways to make your wedding memories last is by ordering an album. These high quality professionally designed albums come in a variety of linen & leather colors. These aren’t the same albums your parents wedding photos came in. They’re modern, lay perfectly flat and look incredible on coffee tables.

All albums must be prepaid before design begins. Albums typically take between 4 to 6 weeks to complete and include three rounds of revision. Albums may be ordered anytime before or after the wedding day.

ALBUMS

All of our sessions include a complimentary engagement session. It takes time for most couples to warm up to being photographed and understand how we pose. Timelines can be pretty tight on weddings days and 30 minutes may be all we have for portraits - which is why we’ve found that wedding day portraits turn out so much better when couples do engagement sessions ahead of time.

Sessions also allow you to showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that is significant to the two of you (and even include pets!) While they’re great for save-the-dates, we’ve taken engagement photos anywhere from 18 months in advance to a few days before the wedding.

Engagement Sessions

Fantastic! To reserve your wedding date, we’ll need a completed contract and a $800 non-refundable deposit. If you don’t have a contract yet, just let us know and we’ll send one over! The remaining balance will be due 1 month before the wedding.

We love your work and we’re ready to book! What’s the next step?

Galleries typically include anywhere between 700 and 800 photos. The exact amount varies from wedding to wedding. Your online gallery will come loaded with fully edited high resolution images you can print anywhere. You will have the ability to print, share and download your images as much as you want. We believe in freely sharing our work
because that is what we would want if we were in your shoes!

How many photos are typically included and can we print the photos ourselves?

Yes!! Most of our weddings are captured in central Florida and Virginia but we do service other locations as well.
