You want someone that you can trust to be there for those moments, and to capture them how they deserve to be. I've been there. I got married two years ago, and those moments mean the world to me.

Madeline absolutely exceeded my expectations for my engagement and wedding photography! I normally hate pictures of myself, so I was surprised in the best way when I loved every si...
ngle one of my engagement photos. We just got our wedding photos back, and I could not be happier. She captured the emotions and fun of the day while keeping the photos elegant and timeless. Madeline is truly an artist, and she’s also a professional. She was punctual and organized, which was a huge help on a hectic day. I cannot thank Madeline enough!
My husband and I could not have picked a better wedding photographer than Madeline! We wanted someone who would capture the “feelings” of the day. We were able to be present in eve...
ry moment of our day, while Madeline took the most incredible photos capturing all the little moments. We didn’t have a videographer, and I must say, looking back at our album, our whole day was perfectly captured to be able to remember for years to come.
My husband and I are not the most natural when it comes to posing and taking photos, but Madeline does and incredible job at making you feel comfortable in front of the camera. She is super sweet, easy to work with, responsive , professional, and fun! We can’t recommend Madeline enough!
We cannot recommend Madeline highly enough!
From start to finish, she made us feel very comfortable and was so easy to be around. She truly went the extra mile to understand exac...
tly the kind of photos we wanted and the specific editing style we were looking for. She provided us with lots of options throughout the process, which we really appreciated.
Madeline is really creative and delivered unique, one-of-a-kind photos that we will cherish forever! She and her second shooter did an amazing job capturing all the moments across our wedding day, including ourselves and all of our guests.
We were also really impressed by the super fast turnaround, as she gave us our sneak peek pictures just after the wedding. We also really appreciated the extra bonus of the engagement shoot in Central Park!
If you are looking for a talented, kind and professional photographer, Madeline is the best!
I cannot say enough good things about Madeline — she is truly a dream to work with. From the second you meet her, you feel like you’ve known her forever. She’s so down-to-earth, ea...
sy to talk to, and genuinely one of the friendliest people I’ve ever met. You’re instantly comfortable, which makes the entire experience feel effortless.
And her work? Absolutely unreal. She somehow captures the candid, in-between moments and the picture-perfect ones without you even realizing she’s doing it. Every photo feels warm, natural, and full of life — exactly how you want to remember your day.
Madeline has that rare mix of professionalism and personality that makes the whole process fun instead of stressful. She hypes you up, keeps you laughing, and knows exactly how to guide you without making anything feel posed or forced.
If you’re even slightly considering booking her — do it. She’s the kind of photographer you don’t just hire, you keep forever.
Madeline was absolutely AMAZING! From the first meeting, I knew she would be a perfect fit. She is very sweet, flexible, and reasonably priced. The engagement photo session allowed...
both of us to get to know one another and was invaluable. The day of the event, she brough a calm, professional, and friendly atmosphere. Our big day ended up with a light rain, but Madeline allowed us to continue taking pictures which ended up being the most fun and whimsical part of the day. The sneak peeks were sent to us within 72 hours and were so perfect. I truly cannot recommend her enough! Thanks so much Madeline!
Wow I could not say more positive things about Madeline! I knew the second I spoke with her that she would be the perfect photographer for our wedding. Not only is she incredibly t...
alented, but she is so personable and easygoing, which made our engagement shoot and wedding day shoot so relaxed and fun. She really understood our vision and executed it to perfection.
We are so happy with all of the memories Madeline helped us create through film. I hope to work with her again in the future!!
We got our photos back, and my jaw was on the floor. Madeline is absolutely INCREDIBLE and I am beyond grateful she was there to capture our special day. Not only does her creativi...
ty and attention to detail shine through all of the photos, her professionalism and knowledge of all things wedding were so appreciated that day. She basically ran the show, and was such a calm and encouraging presence to have during wedding craziness! She is so talented, and she has been so communicative and easy to work with since day one. Photos are such an important part of a wedding, and I’m so glad we made the decision to have Madeline there. I can’t say enough good things about her photography and willingness to go out of her way to make the day so memorable!
Our girlllll - MADELINE! 10/10 - pleaseeee book for your wedding. To no surprise, Madeline did an incredible job from our initial inquiry to wedding day itself. I had already known...
prior to our engagement that we wanted to book her, and from the moment we reached out to her, she was nothing less than so very kind, professional and it truly felt that she went above and beyond in making us so confident and comfortable, and ensuring this was as smooth of a process as possible so we could be fully present on wedding day. We booked our venue and Madeline first, and she was SO helpful in pointing is in the right direction with other vendor recommendations. We wanted people that flowed well to further ensure a smooth day for all involved, and she definitely helped make that happen by providing an initial guide for us. We had a heck of a time trying to do our engagement session thanks to weather, but we finally made it happen and it was exactly what we wanted - such a good mix of our hometown which we wanted to include, and it matched perfectly with the dreamy, joyful vibes and simple/natural chic look we were going for with our wedding day decor. I feel like we definitely didn't really have much of a vision, and she totally worked with that and rocked it. My husband never knows how to act in front of a camera, and I can be quite shy myself, yet Madeline did a beautiful job at prompting us, while still making it look so natural. I'm sure we were not the most natural to try and work with, but she was so creative, and you wouldn't know it by the engagement pictures we got. Come wedding day, Madeline and her second shooter Tori played a HUGE part in helping the day flow among the beautiful moments they captured. They knew exactly what needed to be done when it came to getting the family/bridal party photos we wanted by keeping everyone organized and keeping them moving in a polite, professional way. Madeline has you fill out a form prior to wedding day that has preferences, timelines, family photo specifics, special highlights and last minute details specific to your vision on wedding day. I also thought it was special that she asked about potential family dysfunction, and areas of self-consciousness you or your partner may have, which she 1000% remembered and honored the day of. She made every ounce of this experience so personal. She captured the finest details all while cheering us on as a friend through this process. She truly loves her clients like her friends and you can see it in the energy she pours into her projects. We got our final edits a few weeks ago, and I could sit here and scroll through them every day. We felt like supermodels looking through so many of our pictures! We love the way that she edited the photos to capture the coziness and warmth of love we felt that day, and she also captured so many moments of true emotion which we will be able to relive over and over again through our photos. I want to print some and hang them in our house, but don't know how I'm to decide which ones. Photography is an investment you don't want to make a mistake on when considering your wedding day, and Madeline will not only ensure you have the dreamiest and most wonderful day, but also ensure she captures that legacy and allows it to carry on through generations in the photos that she takes. We love her, and can't wait to use her again in the future for other photo ops!
Madeline is a beautiful angel and was incredible to work with! She's impossibly sweet and was cheering us on the whole wedding. She has an amazing attention to detail and gives gre...
at direction to get natural and gorgeous pictures. Everyone at our wedding loved her and our sneak peeks have all of us dying to see the rest of the images because of how gorgeous they are! Highly recommend!

Madeline is absolutely amazing. First of all, she has style. My husband and I are very picky about how we wanted our pictures to not just be the cookie cutter wedding photos, and M...
adeline took the time to really get to know us and our style and captured the wedding perfectly. Spending time with her on our wedding day and during our mini shoot beforehand felt like hanging out with an old friend. She made us feel totally at ease and rolled with our brand of crazy and we are already looking for random reasons to book her for a mini-session. I cannot recommend Madeline enough! She also has a crazy quick turn around and got me a sneak peak literally the day after the wedding! If you want heirloom quality photos and someone to really capture your day how you want, then you need Madeline. Also, side note, she has great connections and linked me up with the florist of my dreams! Can’t say enough about her!!!
I highly recommend Madeline not only for anyone looking for a wedding photographer, but for any photography needs. I did extensive research on photographers and Madeline’s amazing ...
artistic talents drew me to her immediately. Not only does she have an amazing eye for lighting and scenery, but she knows how to direct you to give you natural, basically candid looking photos. My husband and I did not start out as being super comfortable in front of the camera, but Madeline helped calm us and helped us to have fun and laugh! She was extremely accessible throughout our whole wedding process and even helped me do my wedding day timeline, which was a huge help. She was very open to all of our ideas and when we didn’t have any ideas she didn’t miss a beat, and was right there to guide us. We couldn’t be happier with how our photos turned out and I couldn’t imagine anything better. We will be using Madeline again in the future!
I cannot say enough good things about Madeline! She is not only super talented and takes gorgeous pictures but she is such a wonderful person! She really cares about capturing your...
moments for you! We could not be happier we chose to work with her. Absolutely phenomenal photographer and such a beautiful person!

ictures look natural but surrounded by the most beautiful colors.
We just got our full album last night and it was amazing! I felt like we were reliving that moment all over again. We also look like models, which is really crazy for a couple of awkward kids :).
Madeline has been great to work with. She is professional yet fun to be around. She made myself, my husband, wedding party and family feel relaxed when taking our photos. Madeline ...
came prepared with different tricks to get cute candid photos and captured lots of the little details from our wedding day. I love her style and the tones of her photographs, which is what drew me to her initially. Highly recommend!
BOOK HER!
Madeline is awesome. She is so easy to work with, and really makes sure that your day is what you envision it to be. We didn't want "typical" wedding photos, and Madel...
ine made sure that ours weren't. We got our final gallery a few days ago, and I have looked at the photos multiple times a day, every single day, because they are that good. She is calm, efficient, and exactly who you need by your side on your wedding day. If you don't use her, you'll regret it!
Madeline was amazing! We did a small ceremony dinner. The room was tiny and my fear was it was going to be too small to have a photographer there. She did AMAZING. She captured eve...
rything! The turnaround time was amazing. I have looked at the photos every day after getting them back. I have never written a review with the word amazing so many times but that is the only way to explain her work AMAZING

g a wedding is stressful, but working with Madeline took all the stress that comes with it and allowed me to enjoy this special moment with my new husband. If I had to do it again, without hesitation I would hire her.
The first time I worked with Madeline was for our engagement shoot, and I knew right then that we had made the right decision to hire her for our wedding! Madeline made us feel so ...
comfortable in front of the camera, and that’s saying a lot since my husband hates getting his picture taken. We loved every photograph she sent back; it was hard to pick just one for our save the dates! Our wedding was this past weekend, and Madeline and Jordan were so much fun to work with. The day went by so fast, yet Madeline made sure she got the shots I wanted. She caters to what you want and does it with such a positive attitude. Madeline sent me a handful of “teaser” photos only a couple hours later, and they were unbelievably gorgeous!! I cannot wait to see the rest of the magic she captured!
Madeline was an absolute DREAM to work with on our wedding day! She is the most professional, kind and calming photographers I’ve ever worked with. I had a wedding at an venue unkn...
own to her and she took the initiative to go on a day before the wedding to look around and get ideas for photo locations. She showed up on time with her assistant and quickly took all of the items she needed for detail photos while her assistant stayed with the wedding party as we got ready. I didn’t even know we were being photographed as we got ready she was that quiet and professional. Madeline asked for the list of family/group photos and any specific photo poses well before the wedding which allowed me as the bride to focus on where she was directing my bridal party and myself as opposed to worrying about missed pictures. Me husband has a large family and she seamlessly transitioned groups for family photos and kept the process running smoothly not to delay the reception. She is creative and thinks outside of the box to get the perfect shot - had my groom, bridal party and myself laughing the whole time during our photos! I loved her use of a prism and innovative lighting solutions throughout our wedding photos. From the ceremony to first dances, cake cutting and toasts I could not have been more thrilled with the beauty, love and fun she captured throughout our wedding. I could not recommend her enough! Madeline has provided us with the perfect memories from our day that we will cherish forever!
Madeline is an extremely talented photographer, my husband and I hired her for our engagement photos and for our wedding. When we’re not being super awkward, we tend to just stick ...
to the same pose... but Madeline was really great at getting us out of our comfort zone and we were able to get really genuine and natural looking photos. She’s also really great at getting candids, she captured some of the most special moments during our ceremony and reception. She listened to all of our wants and needs, she took the time to get to know us on a personal level, and she more than delivered in the end. We could not be any happier with her work. I’ve always looked at wedding photos and thought they were nice, but something about them made them all look really similar. Ours are unique. Ours are timeless. Our photos capture everything about our special day but not just the faces, she captured every color, every detail and every emotion exactly the way that I remember it. You need to hire Madeline as your photographer, you will have beautiful photos and a gorgeous new friend 💜
I find myself revisiting our photos daily, we both love them so much!! -- After looking at what felt like hundreds of photographers, we booked Madeline almost immediately after rea...
ding a little bit about her and seeing her portfolio. While I wanted a specific style, we both wanted someone that would keep our day fun! I don't know about you, but I didn't want my wedding day to feel like work.. We actually wanted to ENJOY it. Our schedules were pretty hectic, so we only met Madeline for the first time on our wedding day.. And honestly not once did it feel that way! She's so sweet and so easy to talk to.. My husband hates getting his picture taken, but she made each photo op fun and exciting. Following her direction/suggestions made our day a breeze and stress-free. And of course the photos turned out above and beyond what we both expected!! (insert lots of crying emojis) In the words of my husband, "She was cool." Haha. Everything was perfect, we're both beyond happy! Thank you, Thank You, THANK YOU!
Madeline did an absolutely amazing job as our wedding photographer! She even included a complimentary engagement session as part
Of her services! Her photography style is so stunni...
ng, everyone who saw my wedding pictures commented on how beautiful they were and what a great job she did. She also kept things light and fun during our photo sessions, and took the time to get to know us as a couple. I can’t recommend hiring Madeline for your special day enough. She captured every unique detail of our wedding day, took amazing photos of myself, my husband, and our bridal party and family and made our day all the more special.
I can't say enough about Madeline! She cares so much about her couples and the work she does for them. She's creative, caring, and just all around the best!! She did an amazing job...
at capturing who my husband and I are as a couple; it's so fun to see! I was blown away by how hard she worked for us, and how much she was willing to do for us. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our wedding!
I can't even find the right words to speak highly enough of Madeline! We found her because some of my family happened to know her, which is just one of the many reasons why she fit...
so seamlessly into our wedding plans. Madeline is personable, relatable, professional, and fun. Not only was she an amazing wedding photographer but she was also a huge help in recommending other vendors and providing wedding planning tips. I think I texted her at least once or twice a month with questions and she was always so prompt and helpful and encouraging. On wedding day, she and her second shooter (shout out to Jordan) were so patient with us and so responsive any time I had a request. The pictures turned out beautifully and were exactly what we were hoping for. Madeline is truly amazing at what she does and I could not be more grateful for having her. Thank you so much, Madeline!
With only 4 months until our wedding, we contacted Madeline. She went above and beyond our expectations. She was very easy to work with and made us all feel so comfortable. The pri...
ce was so good compared to other photographers. We are extremely grateful we chose her for our special day! Best choice we could of made!!
I messaged Madeline literally a week before our wedding shower when we decided to spontaneously elope during the event! We are still having a bigger more formal ceremony in Mexico,...
but wanted to do the legal aspect of it here beforehand and thought no better chance than when all our loved ones were already coming together!
So I messaged Madeline on Instagram and she responded promptly that she was available! I told her what our budget was and she didn't think twice about working within our budget (not to ignore the fact that she had to travel over an hour to our event!). Even more so, I realllly wanted this cake from Flouretta Sweet (also located in Lancaster and would recommend 10000x), and Madeline once again did not hesitate to agree to pick up AND transport it all the way to our shower for us! We came up with a timeline together for photos and she arrived on time (with a perfectly intact cake).
For an hour of photos we received almost 200 beautifully edited shots. In fact, once the shower was done and we cleaned up and got ready to drive home, I already got a text from Madeline with 5 sneak peek photos! She must've gone straight home after she left our shower and got to editing a few right away because I was amazed at how quick I got sneak peeks! I wasn't even pulled out of the driveway yet when I got them! Anyway, it took less than 2 weeks before we received the other photos and I couldn't be any happier!
Madeline’s review
Having Madeline photograph our wedding was the best decision I made during the wedding process. Madeline’s ease to work with and calm nature was so helpful with...
two people who aren’t the most comfortable in front of the camera. Before our wedding day she was easily accessible for questions and any concerns we had. We did an engagement session with her which I highly recommend. It allowed us the opportunity to get to know her and her to get to know our personalities. I was not worried at all the day of the wedding and knew she would take care of all the photography needs. She seamlessly organized all of the family photos and was effective in getting every shot we wanted. It was cold outside and she managed everyone’s time perfectly. Her professionalism while still being relaxed and fun was perfect. Many guests didn’t even realize she and her second shooter were there, however she got all the candid shots we were hoping for. Most importantly, her ability to capture the emotion of a moment in a photograph is a true talent. The photographs we have will forever be a reminder to us of the joy we felt on our wedding day and the love surrounding us. Our wedding won’t be the last time Madeline takes our photo, hopefully she will see us age and capture our family as it changes.
We found Madeline serendipitously, and she gave us an incredible experience. She and her husband traveled to NYC for our engagement session, and we clicked right away. We knew imme...
diately that we wanted her to capture our wedding day no matter what. She listened to what our vision was (even though we barely had one!) and offered her suggestions for what would make our photos truly “us”. She responded to every question and concern we had within a day and offered us comfort and direction when we weren’t sure what to do about our wedding day. On our wedding day, Madeline (and her amazing second shooter Jordan!) was relaxed yet professional, excited yet focused, and diligent yet flexible. She was so sweet to our family members during formal photos and knew exactly what candid moments to capture. Not once did we worrt - we trusted her completely. We still look through our wedding album with tears in our eyes because every. single. photo. is truly us and truly the simplicity and love we wanted to remember. Her attention to color and detail make us feel like we are back at our wedding day. I could go on for days... BOOK HER. You won’t be disappointed, in fact, you’ll have your wedding and love you have with your partner captured EXACTLY as you remember it and more. P.S. My husband Brian and I can’t wait for Madeline and Sean to visit us in NYC again!
Madeline is not only an incredibly talented photographer, she is an amazing person as well! Her laid back personality as well as her genuine enthusiasm made me immediately feel at ...
ease while working with her. She cares so deeply for her clients and goes out of her way to build a relationship with you to ensure that she is successfully capturing your vision. Her keen attention to detail & the seriousness in which she takes her work made me so very confident that my special day would be documented perfectly. I am so grateful to have worked with Madeline. It’s one thing to be happy with the choice you made in a photographer, but it’s another thing to feel that you made a friend in the process as well. You will absolutely not regret working with Madeline - she’s a freakin boss babe.
Madeline was amazing to work with!
She captured our anniversary shoot so well and made my husband (who doesn't like getting pictures done) and I feel comfortable and he even said h...
e had fun!
We really appreciated her fast responses during our communicating before our shoot as well! And she even got the photos back to us way before the due date!
All of our friends and family wanted to know who took our wedding pictures. They are so amazing! Madeline is kind, genuine, a true artist. Exactly who you want on your special day....
I even continue to use her for our other life events!
