cAPTURING THE REVERENCE OF CATHOLIC WEDDINGs AND THE CELEBRATION AFTERWORDS
We are passionate about a straightforward, down-to-earth, documentary-style approach that keeps the focus on what's important: Christ, each other, and celebrating with your friends and family. I use flowing, natural pose prompts that keep the focus on your relationship, takes advantage of gorgeous lighting, and captures all the lovely details and intimate moments. For the reception, you can bet we're using creative flash techniques, singing along, and having just as much fun as you. My editing style is film-inspired, colorful, true to life, with just a touch of romantic cinematography.
it's definitely A NASHVILLE PARTY
When if comes to your wedding day, I'm a Catholic first, observer second, photographer third, and creative fourth.
Laid back, calm, organized, and flexible have all been words used by my clients to describe my approach to wedding days.
From photography school, to studio jobs, to marriage and parenting, to 5+ years of industry experience- capturing the beauty and reality of love stories and sharing with the world beautiful churches, lovely smiles, and authentic moments has become one of my biggest joys.
When I'm not photographing or editing, I'm chasing around two little boys, baking, developing a love for bourbon, and hanging out with my husband who is truly my best friend and love of my life. My vocation as a wife and mother truly fuels my passion for this business and ministry: I have my most productive brainstorming sessions walking babies to sleep.
We are absolutely thrilled with our wedding photos!!!! Thank you for being so kind, flexible, and attentive. Madeline, you truly have a beautiful gift!"
"we have both along with our parents and bridal party been talking nonstop about how incredible you two were to work with
instead of making it one long photo shoot. Madeline, that preview is beautiful. Thank you so much for capturing their day so well. I can't wait until they show me their album."
"I love how you just photographed the day as it unfolded
Loved working with Madeline! We hired her for our wedding an the experience was amazing. Large gallery of photos that perfectly captured the day and were edited beautifully."
"Would definitely recommend her as a Catholic wedding photographer!"
