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 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!

"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.

"I really had a good time at this photo shooT"

I really had a good time at this photo shoot and at this stage in pregnancy it's been a little difficult to feel beautiful but this made me feel like a goddess & I absolutely am so glad I did it and with amazing Mary who has such a talent for taking photos just makes you feel like magic!

"MARY WAS SO AMAZING TO WORK WITH!"

Not only did she make me feel so comfortable during the shoot, but she was great at giving directions and seeing a vision for the photos! We did a couple different locations during our shoot, and I appreciate how easy Mary was to talk to when deciding which places would look better with lighting, etc. Also, we did the shoot in the rain, and Mary brought me an umbrella! It was such a nice gesture and despite the rain, the photos were amazing! I highly recommend using Mary for any of your events or milestones!
