finding the joy in the everyday, dancing in the rain, and capturing YOUR beautiful memories

Hey Hey! I’m Mary

I’m your photographer if you believe in dancing in the rain, picnics with a view and making the absolute most of TODAY! Life is beautiful and messy and wonderful and meant to be lived to the fullest. I hope you squeeze every ounce of enjoyment out of your life, I hope you say “fuck it! Why not?” and try that new thing, I hope you want me to take some photos to remember all the important moments, big or small, because that is what I love doing most! 

Some things you should know about me: I feel most alive when I'm surrounded by nature. Being around people with good energy fills my cup more than anything! I believe that if you put good into the world it will come back to you, and that life is too short to play it totally safe.

Warm, joyful, intimate. I want to portray life as it is, but also romanticize it. 


"Mary is one of the kindest, most down to earth photographers we’ve worked with."

We’ve had the absolute pleasure of shooting with marykphotos not once, but twice, and both experiences were nothing short of amazing. Mary is one of the kindest, most down to earth photographers we’ve worked with. She made the entire photo process feel fun, easy, and so full of joy.

One of our favorite touches? At the end of both shoots, she gifted us printed polaroids that now live on our fridge and in our photo diaries!!! Such a sweet little reminder of special moments captured so beautifully. Can’t recommend her enough if you’re looking for someone who brings heart, creativity, and genuine care to every session!

"She spent so much time with me figuring out what I wanted for my wedding."

Mary is absolutely amazing! She spent so much time with me figuring out what I wanted for my wedding. I knew weeks in advance what the plan was. She made me feel so beautiful and our photos are stunning! - Taylor


"Mary did an amazing job of photographing my fiancé and me after our engagement and on our wedding day. from start to finish." 

Our session with her were a blast, which was good since my husband had never had photos taken before. She captured the joy of both events, along with keeping it relaxing. I would hire her again in a heartbeat for any event I need photographed in the future, and I recommend her to anyone wanting beautiful photos without the stress of photo shoots. She was delightful to work with.

"raw, authentic photos."

My husband and I spent the better part of a day with Mary running around in The Gorge. She was super sweet and directed us incredibly well while still leaving room for us to do our thing to create some raw, authentic photos.

"Mary is so wonderful to work with."

You ask her for something and she makes it happen. She's captured every stage of my life. Senior pictures, Graduation ceremony, engagement photos, wedding photos, maternity, and as my family grows more and more family shoots. All the photos are perfect! That's all that's up on my walls! She even let's us include our 4 legged family members. I would highly recommend Mary to anyone and everyone. You won't be disappointed in the quality of photos she provides with such great services!

love notes

When we start to notice the small moments that happen everyday, we start to believe that life is really full of magic.

let's do it!
