Behind the lens

I'm a wedding and elopement photographer based in Northeast Ohio, with a serious love for road trips, beautiful places, and photographs that don't feel overly polished.
I'm probably more quiet than you might expect your photographer to be. I pay attention, I notice the little things, and I'm pretty good at knowing when to step in and when to disappear into the background. Honestly, I think that's one of the best things I bring to a wedding day.
You don't need to know how to pose, and you definitely don't need to be comfortable in front of a camera. I'll guide you when you need it and leave plenty of room for the real stuff to happen.

"Our session was so personal and fun! I would do it again and again!"

MADDIE IS EVERYTHING!!! The immaculate attention to detail she has is unreal! She has the sweetest personality and is open to any ideas you have to capture! Our session was so personal and fun! I would do it again and again! I can't wait to book another session with her! She makes being in front of the camera easy and comfortable! I can't even pick a favorite photo she took because there's so many!!!

love notes

"I love her editing and the quality of her work"

I can't say enough good things about Maddie. She was prompt and efficient. We were in and out super fast and she truly captured exactly what we wanted. I love her editing and quality of her work. Would highly recommend and use her in the future"

love notes

"She made the experience comfortable and natural"

Maddie exceeded my expectations! She went above/beyond. I am not comfortable in front of the camera and she made the experience comfortable and natural. It was exactly what I asked for. She even saved the day when my dress strap broke-she sewed it back for me! Can't say enough good things!

love notes

"not only the sweetest, but her artistic vision is unlike anything else!"

Maddie is truly one of a kind! She is not only the sweetest, but her artistic vision is unlike anything else! Her talent ranges from more intimate and quiet moments to capturing the best moments at larger parties or weddings. We have booked with her several times now and we will continue to do so! Several of my family members have too!

A little hiking, private vows at Ash Cave, and plenty of time to simply be together — this Hocking Hills elopement is the perfect blend of adventure and celebration.

HOCKING HILLS ELOPEMENT

A lake, a cozy lodge, late-summer light, and a wedding day surrounded by the people who mattered most. This was the kind of celebration that made slowing down feel like the right choice.

Some wedding days feel grand and elaborate, and others feel incredibly personal. This one was a bit of both—beautiful details, quiet moments, a lot of emotion, and a couple who made the entire day feel completely their own.
