Picture this: You're reading your vows with Devil's Lake State Park behind you, sunlight filtering through the pines. Or maybe you're dancing under string lights at a charming mountain Airbnb, surrounded by nothing but forest and your favorite people. Your day unfolds at your own pace. No rigid timeline, no performance, just pure celebration.

This is what your Wisconsin or Colorado wedding can look like. Forget the stress and guest list drama. Your day should be about celebrating your love in a place that takes your breath away (without the extreme adventure to get there).

From lakeside ceremonies to backyard celebrations under the stars, I'm here to capture it all exactly as it feels.

YOUR WISCONSIN OR COLORADO ELOPEMENT SHOULD FEEL LIKE YOU.

MEET YOUR WI + CO ELOPEMENT PHOTOGRAPHER

Hi! I’m Maggie!

I'm a semi-adventurous gal (emphasis on semi) who feels most at home in quiet, beautiful places. That’s why I focus on documenting elopements and small wedding days in locations where nature isn’t an afterthought, it’s a top priority.

Maybe you’re dreaming of exchanging vows on a mountain top in Estes Park, wandering the shoreline at Devil’s Lake State Park, or a cabin in the forest with a space to gather your closest people. Wherever you choose, all travel within Wisconsin + Colorado is included, so you can pick your dream spot without worrying about additional costs.

More than anything, I’m here to make sure you feel comfortable, supported, and fully yourselves, so your photos reflect the genuine connection you share.

GET TO KNOW ME

I WORK WITH COUPLES WHO WANT A WEDDING DAY THAT FEELS LIKE THEM,

Not a production for everyone else.

You'd rather have 20 people who truly matter than 200 acquaintances filling seats. You want to exchange vows surrounded by Wisconsin's natural beauty, not inside a generic ballroom. You care about intentionality, not impressing everyone.

You're drawn to outdoor settings, but you're not interested in extreme adventure. You want accessible beauty: a lakeside ceremony, a forest clearing, a charming Airbnb.. places that take your breath away without hiking 10 miles.

You want your day to feel relaxed and genuine, not like a performance. And you're looking for a photographer who feels less like a stranger with a camera and more like a trusted friend helping you create something beautiful.

Sound like you? Let's talk!

WHAT WORKING WITH ME ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE:

YOU'LL FEEL CONFIDENT, NOT CAMERA-AWKWARD

Most couples tell me they're "not good at being photographed." I get it.. posing feels weird and unnatural. That's why I don't make you pose! Instead, I guide you through natural movements and prompts that feel like you're just spending time together. After a few minutes you'll forget I'm even there, and that's when the magic happens. The result? Photos where you look relaxed, joyful, and completely yourselves.
YOU'LL HAVE A PLAN (WITHOUT FEELING OVERWHELMED)

From the moment you book, you're not alone in this. I can help give advice for choosing your ceremony location, create a timeline that actually flows, and offer ideas for how to spend your day. You won't be Googling "what to do during an elopement" at midnight, I've got you! By the time your wedding day arrives, you'll feel prepared, not stressed.
YOU'LL ACTUALLY ENJOY YOUR WEDDING DAY

This isn't just about getting photos, it's about creating an experience you'll remember forever. I bring a calm, fun and supportive presence so you can be fully present. I'll fix your hair, adjust your dress, crack jokes when you're nervous, and make sure you feel taken care of. You'll look back and remember feeling relaxed, celebrated, and completely yourself.
YOU'LL HAVE PHOTOS THAT FEEL LIKE YOU

Not stiff. Not overly posed. Not like every other wedding gallery you've seen. Your photos will reflect the real, in-between moments. The way you looked at each other during your vows, the belly laugh during portraits, the quiet sunset moment you shared. These aren't just pretty pictures; they're the proof that your day was everything you hoped it would be.

I WANT THIS!

“Maggie has photographed all my life milestones over the last two years. She is amazing at what she does and just makes it all feel natural. She is great at giving directions on what to wear, how to pose and is there every step of the way. I have recommended her to everyone I know and will continue to do that. Maggie and her photographs are amazing!!!”
ARICA + JORDAN

“I have worked with Maggie on two different occasions and I am SO grateful I found a forever photographer in her!! She is so lovely to work with and has gone above and beyond for us. Not only is her work absolutely beautiful, she is a beautiful person who will put your needs first as she captures whatever life moment you are living. She ended up staying later at our wedding to get some photos my husband and the other guys really wanted despite the long drive she had to get home that night. Anyone would be lucky to have her capture their big day! Thank you, Maggie!!”
