Hello! My name is Marie, and it’s so nice to meet you. I’m a photographer and storyteller who is obsessed with chasing mountains and moments, romanticizing life, and traveling the world. I find so much beauty in what makes us human and capturing the special glimpses of life that give it meaning. I strive to craft artistic images that tell a story and capture  both posed and authentic, in-between moments in every photo session. Whether you're celebrating your love story in Washington DC or beyond, I'm here to create art with you and tell your love story.


Let's become friends and tell your love story!

My Story


I've always been artistic. To me, art has always been a way to express myself and a way to contribute to the world & the people around me. I loved visual art, dance, and music growing up, and I always felt like it was more of a calling than simply a pasttime. It meant more to me than what it showed on the surface. I also tend to pay attention to the way light interacts with the world around us. Photography lets me capture that light in works of art that will last more than a lifetime.


Growing up, I would borrow my parents' small digital camera, and eventually I had my own that my sister and I would use to take turns photographing flowers on family trips. (My grandfather was a photographer as well, so I guess it runs in the family!) I started taking pictures everywhere I went and would do photoshoots with my friends in middle/high school with my first "real" (point-and-shoot) camera. Once I got my first Nikon, I was able to work towards eventually turning my work into a business. I took my peers' senior photos at the end of high school, along with a few events here and there.


I took college (and COVID) as a time to really improve my craft and find my style, on top of redefining my brand & building my business. And here we are! Now I am a published professional photographer and creative who has created photos and memories around the world. I am so thankful to my family, friends, and lovely clients for their support of me and my passion. <3
