fine art & documentary wedding photographer


Hi, I'm Madeleine

Capturing moments, memories, and emotions with a camera is something I have "done" for almost as long as I can remember.


My formal photography education started in the darkroom, which fostered my love of film and traditional photography methods. I aim to bring a fine-art element to all my sessions and wholeheartedly believe in capturing authentic, organic moments as they unfold.


When I'm not photographing a session, you can find me at a coffee shop with my husband Matt, or editing on the couch with my pups, Argo & Io!

My philosophy

I believe in capturing a moment, not manufacturing one

 

All of my photography is rooted in genuine interaction and emotion, which means encouraging my clients to be their most authentic selves. I aim to capture the in-between and quiet moments of your day through documentary-first photography.

 

Creating timeless photos.
