Madison, Wi wedding + Elopement Photographer
Real connection. Beautiful places. Timeless memories.
Currently based in Madison, WI — excited to start serving Colorado couples in 2027!
Hi, I’m Maggie!
When my friends asked me to photograph their skiing elopement on top of Aspen Mountain, I wasn’t sure what to expect. By the end of the day, I had fallen in love with the tiny guest list of only their favorite people, the flexible timeline, and how relaxed and fun the day was. I knew I had finally found my calling.
Now, I focus on elopements and smaller weddings where emotion and connection take center stage. Smaller celebrations mean you can keep traditions or make your own, enjoy your day stress-free, and spend quality time with the people who matter most.
Because the best photos come when you’re fully present, enjoying the people and moments that matter most.

Meet your wedding + elopement photographer
The Types of Stories I Tell:
What I Value As a Photographer:
Presence Over Performance:
Your elopement day isn’t a performance — it’s a chance to slow down, connect, and be fully present with the person you love. I believe in creating a space where you can truly be yourself—no pressure, no pretending.
A Laid-Back, Guided Approach:
I’ll never over-direct or interrupt moments that are already unfolding beautifully. I document things naturally, and step in with gentle guidance only when it helps you feel more confident, connected, or grounded in the moment.
Meaningful, Honest Storytelling:
I’m not just here to take pretty photos—I want to capture the real emotion and atmosphere of your day. Whether it's quiet, playful, tearful, or all of the above, I’ll document it in a way that feels like you.
Thoughtful, Authentic Editing:
Each photo is carefully edited to highlight the natural beauty of your surroundings and the honest emotions you share. I avoid one-size-fits-all presets and instead craft a warm, timeless look that complements your day’s atmosphere.
Support Beyond the Camera:
I’m not just a photographer—I’m your guide, sounding board, and biggest advocate. Whether you need help finding a meaningful location, planning a stress-free timeline, or deciding whether to bring your dog (the answer is yes), I’m here for all of it.

kind words:
“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!!!”

“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!!”
