Elevating your story

​

 

  Whether you're looking for engagement photos, high fashion editorial, or senior photos, I gotchu! My work is very tailored to what you're looking for, so if you have a specific idea or vision in mind, I want to make it come to life! Or equally, if you're wanting to trust my creative eye, I love you for that also! I am your personal hypewoman, professional third-wheel, and creative eye, and can't wait to create with you. 

How this works

inquire + book

Click the "Booking" button above to get the ball rolling! Or submit an inquiry below if you'd like to chat about your vision first! Deposit + contract to book. 

planning + chatting

We'll chat about what you're looking for and come up with a plan for the exact location and vision. Final payment due after our session via invoice.

At our session, I'll help you feel comfortable and confident, and will help with posing and prompting as needed. ~2 weeks later, I'll deliver your finished online gallery to you for downloading and sharing!

Mary made our shoot so fun and comfortable, she communicated and answered all my questions and the results from our photos was amazing! She was the sweetest person to work with. She has a great eye for choosing amazing locations for shoots! She was able to capture our time in alaska in just a shoot. I’m so grateful we took professional photos, I highly recommend you book with her, it’s worth it!
