East coast photog based in the md, dc, va area - available for travel worldwide
I'm Maddie, a Destination, Elopement, Wedding, & Lifestyle Photographer based in the MD, DC, and VA area. My career and passion for capturing weddings and celebrating love started in 2015 and has flourished ever since, stretching across countless states and countries in recent years.
Planning a wedding is not easy. It goes so far beyond one day; it is the legacy you will leave behind. Being in front of a camera isn't natural for a lot of us, me included. I want your photos to be loud with your laughter, your love, your individuality. I aim to be far more than your photographer; I'm your hype man, director, and your soon to be newest friend.

a few of my favorite things...
The first time I traveled outside of the US in 2019, I knew it would be a deep and invigorating passion that I would one day marry to my love for photography and for people. In November of that same year, I traveled to Santorini, Greece for my first International booking and I have not turned back.
Everytime I get to explore a new and unfamiliar place with my camera, my artistic expression is reborn and I fall in love with my job all over again. From the Greek islands, to the shades of green in Ireland, to the sacred lands of Indonesia and the golden coasts of Australia, I have been blessed enough to see so much of our world and cannot wait for the adventures ahead.
My own love story started with a happen-chance meeting that quickly turned into countless hours of laughter and the sweetest. unconditional love I've ever known.
After our first year together, we welcomed home our short, stubby, four-legged little boy who we obsess over every second of every day. Getting to come home to my little family after a shoot-filled day, a weekend of weddings, or a week long trip abroad just might be my most favorite thing in the entire world.
In my time as a photographer, the most common question I am asked is what my favorite part of my job is. There are so many good answers to this; being my own boss, creating art, traveling, flexibility, the list goes on. My answer has always and will always be this: people.
I love people. I love that I get to meet so many unique individuals and personalities, from so many different backgrounds and places. I love that I get to build lasting relationships that I wouldn't normally have the opportunity to make. I love that I get to capture people's raw, real, intimate moments and emotions. Their laughs, their tears, and everything in between.
"Maddie is truly the best of both worlds, a great personality and incredible skills behind the camera. She is so relatable, fun, professional, and the perfect balance of upbeat and calming energy that you want on your wedding day. She invests in everyone she works with and knows how to authentically capture you as a couple".
