DOCUMENTING LOVE-FILLED AND NOSTALGIC MOMENTS.

effortless,

PRESENCE OVER PERFECTION, forever and always.

genuine,

and nostalgic.

As a wedding photographer based in Madison, Wisconsin and traveling worldwide, my dedication lies in capturing + preserving love stories through art. My passion is unveiling your narrative—the intricate details of your relationship, your shared dreams, and the moments that define you as a couple. Together, we'll craft a timeless collection of photographs that reflect the depth of your connection. Above all else, your experience is paramount to me. That means delivering all the best images without limitations. It means assisting you in creating a personalized timeline that aligns with your vision for the day. And most importantly, it means knowing when to offer gentle guidance to help you feel at ease in front of the camera and when to step back, allowing the natural unfolding of candid moments to be captured effortlessly.

YOUR LOVE SHOULD BE DOCUMENTED IN A WAY THAT FEELS LIKE YOU.

- SABRINA + QUINN

"We could not be more in love with our photos. We both noted that taking pictures was effortless, we never got tired of being in front of the camera because Mariah made the experience as comfortable, genuine, free-flowing, and "in-the-moment" as possible. Our time doing couples portraits was one of our favorite parts of wedding day because we just got to enjoy the little moments between the two of us while Mariah captured that authenticity, emotion, and love between us. We feel those same emotions coming through as we look at our photos, which is so special to us - and a true testament to the talent, skill, and beauty of Mariah's work!"

"There are not enough words to express how amazing Mariah is. From the very first conversation we had she made everything perfect. Mariah was so helpful throughout the entire planning process. She checked in frequently and was so easy to communicate with. She goes above and beyond for her people. As for our wedding day, we owe how seamless the day went to her. She brought so much calmness and excitement at the same time. She kept everything moving the way it should but didn’t make it feel forced. She is beyond kind and such a joy to be around. Our photos were everything and more that we could have ever dreamed for. We believe she is beyond talented and would not have wanted anyone else to capture our day. Our photos are real and raw. They are filled with love and she was the one who was able to see those moments and capture them so naturally. She is beyond talented at what she does and she puts her whole heart into it. We love her so much and HIGHLY recommend her!"
