+ preserving memories authentically +
Hey, I'm Mary! I'm so happy you're here.
I'm passionate about documenting families and couples in a genuine way that shows how precious their life is. Their unique personalities, love and connection. I believe everyone should be shown the beauty in themselves, their family or their relationship that often gets overlooked.
I love the documentary/candid style of shooting so much. My sessions are not stiffly posed or forced. Think fun, laid back, lightly posed/prompted and playful.
I'm going to capture a lot of laughs, a lot of genuine love and emotion. I rarely tell my clients to "smile at the camera", because I want to capture how you interact with each other.
I take on every session in a different way. Every client is different, and I want every shoot to be specially personalized and unique, reflecting them authentically and serving them in a meaningful way.
genuine, warm, natural, storytelling
Capturing light, feelings & the little things.
Photography for the families & couples who want to document where they are right now. The little details, joy, & connection of the season you're in.
Let's capture the raw, the real, the pure joy of now. There is beauty in the chaos, and there is beauty in your story.

“From our very first family photoshoot with Mary we knew we found the perfect person to capture our growing family. Mary has blessed us with the most gorgeous photos of our babies that I just know we will look back at and cherish for all our years to come! She is so easy to work with and has such a patient presence with our kids. After three photoshoots with her so far...we have been completely delighted each time with how beautifully she is able to capture our family and a bonus is we have so much fun while doing it! It’s always a perfect, playful, relaxed environment! We lucked out. Looking forward to many more shoots with Mary. :)”

“I recently had the pleasure of booking a family photoshoot with Mary, and I can't express how satisfied we are with the entire experience. Scheduling a session with Mary was easy - she is highly responsive and accommodating. Her wardrobe guidance prior to the shoot was extremely helpful! During our session, we felt completely at ease, which resulted in authentic and heartfelt photos. Working with kids can be challenging, but Mary was patient, engaging, and made the shoot fun and enjoyable for our kids by having them play little games with us, resulting in beautiful and dynamic shots. We couldn't be happier with the results; Mary went above and beyond to create a comfortable and enjoyable experience for us.”

"From our first email I immediately felt like I was in good hands. Mary was quick to reply and had lots of great questions and information about our upcoming shoot. Everything felt well thought out and personalized. She emailed the week before to confirm everything and to see if we needed any help selecting our outfits. The day of the shoot went perfectly. She kept my two little boys engaged and happy for an entire hour! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. When we got our images back I was completely overwhelmed. She was able to tame the chaos of photographing two toddlers and turn them into the most beautiful and blissful moments. I will cherish these gorgeous photos forever. Mary is SO talented and I cannot wait to use her again!"
