Maggie is wonderful to work with! We had the opportunity for her to take our engagement and wedding photos. She made sure to capture all the important moments while taking suggesti...
ons and working with a detailed timeline. She made my family and bridal party feel comfortable and laid-back in times that could have turned stressful. We are grateful to have worked with Maggie!
When my partner and I began researching photographers, Maggie was at the top of our list. She had done a wedding for my friend and so we both remembered how kind and sincere she wa...
s that day and how amazing those photos came out. So, we hired Maggie! She answered all of our questions with as much detail as possible, honored her educator discount (she is an educator herself which is just extra bonus points in my book), and let us know when she would reach out next. Fast forward to the week before our wedding and we confirmed details and timeline and got all set for the day of! When our wedding day actually came, Maggie was so much more than a photographer, she really acted almost like a day-of coordinator in addition to making all of us (yes, all, people told me this after our wedding day without me asking!) feel like we had been lifelong friends. So, I mean this, just hire her! You will not regret it!
Our photos came out beautifully, she helped direct our videographer that we hired separately (which was entertaining and helpful), she told us when it was almost time for a, b, or c, she took beautiful pictures during our ceremony when a random rainstorm (that she said was the rainiest of her career) came through, and she even told my family to get away from our dessert table when folks didn't want to wait for us to cut the cake and were digging in early. We hope to use Maggie in the future for anything and everything and I sincerely hope you do too! Again, just hire her, it was one of the best decisions we made.
We are an out of town couple and found Maggie on a wedding vendor website. We really liked her work that was shown and her prices were good compared to some other photographers we ...
had looked at. Because we were out of town, Maggie agreed to have a Zoom meeting with us and we felt a great vibe with her immediately. When we were able to get into town, Maggie was very accommodating and met with us to go over the schedule for the day of the wedding. We were in touch with her several times and she was always easy to communicate with and double checked everything to make sure we were all on the same page. She was an absolute joy to work with on the day of and was awesome at getting what she needed from our large wedding party! The pictures are beautiful and she got them back to us in a timely manner. We would definitely recommend Maggie to any couple looking for a wedding photographer!!!
Maggie was a blast! She not only captured our day perfectly and was so fun to work with before and on the day of. She kept our (sometimes unruly) bridal party and extended family ...
under control so we could get the pictures we really wanted. I would highly suggest her to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!
Maggie is the best! We absolutely love how our photos turned out for both our engagement session and wedding day. She kept us on schedule, while still letting us enjoy the day with...
out feeling rushed. We wanted lots of candids that captured the day, and she came through perfectly. She really has an eye for catching special genuine moments! I absolutely recommend her!
Maggie Gallagher was a gem to work with on our wedding day and in the lead-up. She kept the bridal party in line, on time and I'm sure captured gorgeous moments. She kept lightin...
g in mind the entire time and was always willing to try a new shot/location. We sincerely appreciate our time with Maggie and can't wait to see the images she produces!
From the first time I spoke with Maggie, I knew that we would go with her! She was so easy going and provided her professional recommendations with such ease. My husband HATES havi...
ng his picture taken, but Maggie made him feel so comfortable and move through the 'posed' shots quickly. We also had a VERY rowdy bridal party... she was direct and patient, and did a fantastic job wrangling them in! After seeing our first photo, we are so excited to see the rest!!!! Working with Maggie was a wonderful experience and we would definitely recommend her!
There are not enough words to say how great it was to work with Maggie for our wedding on Saturday! Maggie was the most incredible addition to our day. She was always responsive a...
nd helpful while we were planning from 3,000 miles away, and she provided such a beautiful and positive energy throughout the process. It was a pleasure to have her with us during our day. Our engagement photos were beautiful, and our preview photos are stunning. We cannot wait to see the rest of the photos soon, and we will hopefully be back for newborn photos soon. Could not be luckier to call Maggie our wedding photographer, and now our friend.
Maggie was wonderful start to finish!!! She followed up accordingly, asked all of the right questions, and got back to us with our questions in a very timely manner. She and her se...
cond photographer were prompt the day of, super friendly and fun, but knew how to keep us focused (and our large, distracted wedding party needed it!). She is also flexible with day of changes, and makes sure the entire day goes as planned, not just the pictures. Highly, highly recommended!!!
We loved working with Maggie! From the consultation to the last photo of the wedding day, Maggie was beyond amazing to work with! She is very organized, detail oriented, and you ca...
n tell she loves what she does. Maggie made taking countless pictures on our day not feel like a chore and made it so fun and easy. I love every single picture she took, even the ones where I'm ugly crying! She definitely nailed it!
Maggie was so great to work with from start to finish; she worked with our budget, allowing us to book her hourly and schedule our day so that she captured all the moments from cer...
emony through sunset dancing. She is calm, but thorough and organized, which made us feel very comfortable in her hands. Her attention to detail is so perfect. Maggie was so great at directing us, while going with the flow and capturing the beauty of the day. She also offers an open-air photobooth, which her husband runs, and that was so fun; guests really liked having that activity, and it gave us some great photos of guests who otherwise may not have been in the spotlight. Thousands of beautiful photos continue to put smiles on our faces. Most impressive is the fact that we got all our finished photos less than a month after the wedding!! I wish Maggie was around to capture every beautiful moment in life!
I can not express into words how wonderful Maggie Gallagher is!! From the moment my husband and I video chatted with her discussing our dreams for our wedding day we instantly knew...
she would be the one to capture all the amazing memories we were about to create. From a very cold engagement photo shoot to our sunny wedding day Maggie was right there through it all. Her attention to detail was just what I was hoping for. She was quick yet attentive to each and every shot she took. Knowing the group of laid back groomsmen and giggly bridesmaids she got the job done as she laughed along with us. From a formal ceremony to a romantic tractor ride that led to our informal reception Maggie did everything she could to help and for that I am eternally grateful.
Maggie shot our super small ceremony on the Maid of the Mist at Niagara Falls, and was AMAZING to work with! We’re from Chicago, so we were coordinating and trying to plan from a d...
istance. She was always SO responsive to my emails, answered all of my questions thoroughly and clearly, and was super enthusiastic from day one. When our big day finally came, she was so great to hang out with! So bubbly and excited and welcoming. We felt so comfortable with her (actually, our families both thought she was an old friend that traveled with us from Chicago for the wedding!!). She gave us great direction and definitely has an eye for hidden beauty. She posted some of our “sneak preview” pictures the NEXT DAY (!!!) which was so so so so exciting for us. Maggie was seriously an angel from the get go, and we feel so lucky to have found her! 5 stars doesn’t even feel like enough! �
Maggie is fantastic! I found her on The Knot when I was searching for reasonably prices photographers in the area. When I reached out to her, we spoke on the phone for a few minute...
s and I instantly knew I wanted to book her. She was so easy and flexible to work with. My husband and I weren't that interested in engagement photos but she encouraged us to use it as a "practice run" for the wedding and I am so happy we did, since we love those photos. She provides good direction and feeds off of your personality. She worked so well with us during the wedding and didn't overburden us with photos but still made sure we got all the shots we wanted. She was always checking in with us and showing us the photos throughout the night. She wasn't afraid to "take charge" and instruct people when needed so that we could get through the photos in order to join our guests. I can't say enough kind things about her. I am so glad I found her
Maggie Gallagher Photography was the best decision we made in our wedding planning. Prices were more reasonable than anyone else we considered, the finished product on engagement a...
nd wedding were both simply stunning!
My husband and I can't say enough good things about Maggie! I'm so happy I found her (thanks to positive online reviews). Not only was she wonderful and fun to work with, but we ar...
e so happy with her photos!! We've only seen the preview from our wedding so far, but they look amazing. I also did a boudoir shoot with Maggie (which was one of the most fun things ever) and the pictures came out better than I could've imagined. I would recommend her to anyone for any occasion that requires a photographer, and I can't wait to find a reason to use her again myself. :)
Maggie did an incredible job capturing our wedding!! She was not only extremely creative but paid so much attention to even the smallest details. Our wedding day called for rain, a...
nd we were actually excited to experiment with some rain pictures. When it didn't end up raining, Maggie set the lighting, hooked up a hose and got out an umbrella so we could have a rain picture!! It was the greatest surprise at the end of a wonderful evening. I don't think any other photographer would have done that for us. We can't wait to use her skills for family photos in the future!!
It is not an exaggeration to give Maggie Gallagher Photography a 5 star rating! Maggie is creative, effective and comfortable to work with. Maggie worked to ensure our wedding day ...
captured our personalities. She is easy to get a hold of and will answer any questions you have. On our wedding day, Maggie made sure to keep us on track and kept things moving.... all while working behind the scenes and being unnoticeable to our guests! I would highly recommend Maggie to anyone and hope to work with her in the future!
Maggie has a relaxed and professional demeanor making a bride feel very comfortable on her big day! I was definitely freaking just before the ceremony and Maggie had me walk with ...
her and take a few photos by myself. During that walk she reassured me that I wasn't losing my mind and the emotions I was feeling were totally normal. I really appreciated that. So beyond how easy she made the photos throughout the day, I should definitely mention that the finished product is beautiful!! We just got our photos back and couldn't be happier. I really can't believe she was able to capture so many wonderful moments without dragging out the photo process after the ceremony. She was so efficient! I would HIGHLY recommend Maggie for your wedding and urge you to get in touch today!!
Maggie is an amazing photographer who is not only professional but so much fun to work with! Lee and I loved working with her on our wedding day- she keeps things moving, organized...
, exciting, and fun! We absolutely love our pictures! Thanks again Maggie!

re not very good at having our pictures taken and she was fabulous in helping direct us in this endeavor.
Maggie's photographs are incredible. I feel like I looked absolutely amazing in her pictures, as does everyone else. Her ability to work with light is incredible. She had a perfect mix of artistic photos and candids, and was able to perfectly capture the romantic feel of our day. I am beyond thrilled with the photos she provided us and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone.
If I ever have need for photos again, I would 100% use Maggie. I cannot over-emphasize what beautiful photos she takes, making even a small moment breath-taking.
Her photographic style is more artistic than photojournalistic. Her work with light is superb!
Maggie photographed our wedding and exceeded all of our expectations! She was organized up front which made it possible to get all the shots we wanted. She was very helpful with po...
sing, which my husband and I were worried about. Beautiful pictures--I highly recommend!
