Hear from past clients...
As a 2024 bride, I know how hard it is to trust people to carry out such an important day in your life. I understand the investment you're putting into this day and into my work. To ease your brain, here are some words from past clients....

Where do I even begin with my review of Mary and her stunning photography? One of our biggest priorities for our wedding was a photographer who felt like they could authentically capture the day, and when I tell you, Mary went above and beyond my expectations, I mean it.
Mary has an innate sensibility to capture things that you just simply cannot be present for on your wedding day because there is so much going on. Such as: seeing the way your partner looks at you when you’re crying on your wedding day; seeing you wrap your arm around your mom when you’re dancing; seeing people crying during your speeches; seeing hugs and smiles everywhere throughout the night. There are all these special moments that Mary captured on our wedding day, and I could not be more grateful for her genuine and incredible skill. Our wedding was in June and I’m still in awe that we can relive our day through her work.
Not to mention: she is ELECTRIC, has an amazing energy, and is such a thorough professional through and through. We loveddddd working with her and I cannot recommend Mary enough!!!

It’s hard to write a review about Mary’s work as our wedding photographer without getting emotional. From start to finish Mary was nothing but professional and passionate - meeting with us prior to the wedding to go over schedules and inspiration, really taking the time to understand the feel of our wedding.
This dedication to her craft did not stop on the day of, nor did her ability to capture the kind of photos you’ll cherish forever. The photos we now have from our wedding day are timeless, unique, personal and fun - and they also perfectly tell the story of our day. Mary also brings an impeccable vibe, which is SO important, and was commented on by majority of our wedding party. She has a way of making you feel confident, sexy, silly, and it is so easy to be in the moment when she is around. As I hope you can tell by now, I could not recommend Mary more as a wedding photographer and it is hands down one of the best decisions we made.

Mary is an incredible photographer and human and I would 1000% recommend her for your wedding.
I was a fan of her photojournalism for years before asking her to photograph our wedding and feel so lucky that she did. She’s professional, easy to work with, and offers an amazing value considering the quality of her photos. She makes you feel present and at ease while getting your photo taken, which was hugely helpful for my husband and I as well as our friends and family. Most importantly (to us), she is keenly aware of the people and moments around her—she truly didn’t miss a beat. Snag her while you can!

Mary was such an effortless addition to our day—we had an intimate wedding and she took all of our non-traditional ideas in stride. She captured small, documentary-style moments with such ease and the photos show her incredible skill. You can see her empathetic and intuitive mind shine through in her work—she has such an innate sense of what is important and moves to capture it without having to communicate. Hire Mary!!!
Lauren & Ryan
What would we have done without Mary! We decided on a whim to tie the knot at City Hall back in January. We really wanted cheesy high-flash photos to capture the essence of a Chicago City Hall marriage. We got so many silly and memorable moments captured, all thanks to Mary. She was professional, easy to communicate with, on time, and did a better job than anything we could have dreamed of. Would highly recommend her!
Nick & CJ
We asked Mary to shoot our wedding day as is, without posing, and the photos were everything I could have imagined and more. Her attitude, professionalism, creativity and knowledge of photography shined through each photo. She really captured the joy of the day. I would hire her 1000 times over. 10/10 would recommend!!!

If you're looking for someone to capture your day (and relationship) in an authentic and real way - Mary is the photographer for you! Mary shot our engagement photos and wedding day, and we cherish every single one of the pictures we received. She's insanely talented at capturing the day in a genuine way that will bring you back to your wedding day time and time again. We loved her comfortable and inviting personality and can't say enough about our amazing experience with her. 10/10 recommend!
