We cannot recommend Maggie Mills Photography enough! She has been my photographer since her beginning days and there are not enough words to describe how wonderful she is to work w...
ith. Maggie photographed my college days and my best friend's wedding, and her team photographed my brother's wedding when she was out on maternity leave. Now, she has also photographed our wedding and created the most beautiful shots every step of the way. She not only supported us in the planning process, but also made a rainy engagement session turn magical. Maggie makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and is your biggest hype person for every photo. She also did my bridal portraits, and I truly could not pick a favorite because she is just that good! Maggie also made our wedding day one of the most unforgettable days by capturing us and our guests so well. You can see and feel every moment of the day in the most beautiful light. You will not be disappointed when you book Maggie!
Maggie is so talented!! We could not have asked for a better photographer. As a fellow wedding photographer, photography was the part of my wedding day I was most excited for. She ...
was our biggest cheerleader on our wedding day. Your wedding day comes and goes so quickly and as a bride, you cannot be everywhere at once. Maggie captured the moments that I didn’t get to experience on our wedding day. Looking back at the photos, I was able to experience those moments. I could feel every single emotion all over again. Maggie was genuine and kind to our wedding party/family as she worked her way through all the photo combinations. I cannot express enough gratitude for her! Thank you Maggie!
Maggie was absolutely incredible to work with. My Fiancé and I do not take a lot of pictures professionally so when it came time to take our engagement shoot pictures, we were worr...
ied about seeming "awkward" or not knowing what to do in front of the camera. Maggie was super helpful in giving direction and made us feel comfortable and natural every minute! Our pictures are BREATH-TAKING!! The way Maggie captured our love is a work of art. We are forever grateful to have these memories that we'll cherish for a lifetime!
Maggie is so kind, bubbly, responsive and talented. It felt like having a friend capture my biggest day! Maggie worked without families and made everyone feel so comfortable. She w...
as also extremely organized. Her talent speaks for itself! There is not one photo she sent that I don’t like. She had knack for capturing flattering angels, showcasing how much fun you’re having, and editing in the most beautiful way. I will 100% be working with Maggie to capture future life events 🤍
Maggie is hands down the best photographer you are going to find. She is incredibly knowledgeable about everything from wedding timelines to the perfect lighting and poses. If we ...
lived in North Carolina, we would be hiring Maggie for every family photo ever. The absolute best decision we made for our wedding was hiring Maggie- we cannot recommend her enough.
Maggie took our engagement photos this past May and we are already counting down the days until she photographs our wedding next summer! My fiancé and I have been long-distance sin...
ce we started dating so we don’t have as many photos together from over the years, and it brought us pure joy to see how Maggie captured our love via her beautiful images! Not only does Maggie take stunningly classic and timeless photos but Maggie made both of us feel comfortable in front of the camera. Her kindness, grace, and fun personality mixed with organization, talent, and purpose made the photo shoot that much more enjoyable for us. Maggie has also been incredibly helpful with suggestions for other vendors and guiding us through the beginning of wedding planning. My fiancé and I are still trying to make a decision on the photos for the save the date
cards because we love them all!
Maggie photographed our wedding at the Merrimon-Wynne in Raleigh in May of 2023. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone if I could!
Where do I begin… from our initial phone ...
call with Maggie, my (now) husband and I knew as soon as the call ended we wanted to work with her. I already was in love with her light and airy photography style, but her upbeat, energetic and bubbly personality shone through which really was just icing on the cake.
Communication from start to finish was spot on, she was very easy to get in touch with and answered any and all questions we had.
Initially we were going to forgo the engagement session since we don’t live in North Carolina, but I am so glad we did! Neither of us were that comfortable or used to having our pictures taken, so her guidance and energy was so helpful and made being photographed FUN, which I never thought my husband would say! Maggie knew exactly how to make us feel like we were hanging out with a friend. The session was a perfect opportunity to get to know Maggie better, and of course we got stunning photos afterwards!
On the day of the wedding, we had the same experience as we did with our engagement session. She kept the energy up and was our ultimate hype-woman. During the dancing part of our reception, I noticed a laptop set up on the table that was shuffling through 15 or so images that she had captured during the day. I was blown away with the previews! We also got a glimpse of the vendor gallery within 2 weeks of our wedding day which I loved.
I can’t put into words how happy I am that Maggie was the one to capture such a special day for us. I’ve shared the previews on social media and with friends and family, and all the feedback has been comments like beautiful, stunning, etc etc. We get to have these beautiful images for the rest of our lives, and have Maggie to thank for her time, talent, and care.
From the bottom of our hearts, Maggie, we can’t thank you enough!! <3
Love, Chelsey & Jason
Maggie is the definition of someone who loves their career! Our wedding photos were outside on a golf course around 9am so we were looking for someone who does natural light airy p...
hotos and that would be MMP! We hired Maggie for our wedding and that may have been the best decision I made throughout the entire wedding process -outside of picking my husband, haha. My now husband and I are like a deer in headlights when it comes to taking photos but Maggie has the personality to make the moment light, open, fun, and entertaining - bonus points for guiding your poses as well. I cannot recommend Maggie enough, we will most definitely use her services in the future as we grow our family.
Where to even begin...
Planning a wedding can be one of the most ambitious and crazy experiences in life. There are thousands of decisions to make and hundreds of different vendor...
s to sift through as you put together your vendor team.
Undoubtedly, the best decision we made during our entire wedding planning was choosing to work with Maggie Mills Amaya. I could write on and on about the perfection of her craft she has honed and the most intentional and customized service delivery she provides. What's even better is the sheer honor and joy Maggie is to work with.
From a fun-filled engagement photo session, heartfelt bridal portrait session for my wife, coverage of our welcome party, wedding day coverage and the dozens of calls, emails and texts in between, Maggie was a friend before anything else. She made every moment so special and celebrated us so well.
So if capturing your wedding through imagery is important to you, you need not look further than Maggie Mills Photography. She is truly one-of-a-kind and will surpass your expectations at every turn!
Maggie has gone above and beyond in all of her services for our wedding! She is excellent with communication and was my therapist during this experience just as much as she was my ...
photographer! I can not say enough wonderful things about the quality of her pictures and her signature style she adds to all of her photography! Her pictures are only something an MMP bride can experience! The BEST. We would choose her over and over again!
We could not have asked for a better photographer to help us create the memories that will last a lifetime of our perfect day. From our engagement session to our wedding day Maggie...
did an amazing job capturing our personalities and love perfectly! Not only does Maggie take the most gorgeous photos, but she also has such a fun and infectious personality that makes you so comfortable and able to have fun while shooting! Even our bridal party had a blast! I would HIGHLY recommend her to photograph any event, she truly goes above and beyond for her clients!
Maggie did our engagement shots and our wedding photos and we could not be happier with her or the photos. There are not enough positive words to say about Maggie and her team. She...
is loyal, flexible, fun, kind, professional, talented and timely!! We are so happy with her work. She honestly helped make our wedding go so smoothly and her photos are beautiful. Maggie works hard to make your special moments enjoyable and memorable. She has a perfect mixture of candid photos and enough structure, organization and leadership to have all the must have photos even with large wedding parties (we had 22). Don't think twice and give her a call. She is the best and very easy to work with!
We worked with Maggie for our August 2021 wedding, and she was absolutely wonderful! She has such a bright, clean style that we just love, and we will treasure not only our weddin...
g pictures, but also our engagement pictures, forever. Maggie is a wonderful artist with an eye for beauty, and she genuinely cares about her clients (and even worked with us as we planned our wedding from another state, as well as worked with us through a date change). We just loved working with Maggie so much!

nd don't like pictures. Her work is amazing and speaks for itself. She is a joy to be around and is truly gifted with making relationships with her clients. Any other photos I need in the future, I will definitely be using Maggie!
I hired Maggie for a fall outdoor mini-session. I was looking for a Christmas card photo and a professional headshot. My parents came along for pictures as well. Maggie was fun to ...
work with, very prompt, and organized. Everything was very clear from booking to delivery of photographs! I would pay all over again - and I am, for round 2 this fall! - because she not only delivered fabulous photographs, she made my parents (married 30+ years) giggle like a newly engaged couple and made me feel beautiful. I had recently been through a devastating season and didn't think I would ever feel pretty, let alone beautiful, again. The pictures were worth every penny for what they are in themselves, but also what she helped me find in myself again.
Maggie is not only an amazing photographer, but the absolute BEST wedding vendor to work with. She goes above and beyond to help in the wedding planning process and truly cares abo...

I can not stress ENOUGH how badly you need to hire Maggie as your wedding photographer! She is the absolute best and a joy to work with. I am not a picture taker- so I was afraid o...
ur engagement photos were going to be so awkward- boy was I wrong! Maggie brought the energy, knew the poses, and was great at guiding my fiancé and I through our shoot. We were dying laughing and having a great time the entire shoot. Our pictures turned out amazing! Her online gallery is very easy to use- makes ordering prints and downloading pictures a breeze. I’m kinda sad that I won’t see her again until our wedding day- she is THAT fun!

Not only does Maggie take amazing pictures but she also has such a fun and spunky personality that makes you so comfortable and able to have fun while shooting! She even can get down on the dance floor and get some amazing shots of the party! (Maggie also had quite a few images for me the night of our wedding- like how amazing is that!)💗
Maggie did my engagement shoot last month. my fiance and I were a little nervous as we barely even take photos of us together! To sum it up, Maggie made us feel so comfortable and ...
natural! our dog was there too and she was so patient with her and just all around great personality. cannot WAIT for her to shoot our wedding next year. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding. Maggie went above and beyond the typical obligations of a wedding photographer. She helped us put together a time...
line, came to the final walkthrough of our venue, and answered every question my fiancé and I had to help us feel more comfortable.
On our wedding day, our first look had to get pushed back by about an hour. Maggie stayed calm, cool and collected, and got some beautiful shots while we were waiting. The temperature during our first look/wedding party photos was sunny and 95 degrees. While we were taking pictures in the shade, Maggie and her assistant, Tori, were in the blistering heat and still managed to get incredible shots and stay super positive.
During the wedding, we were pleasantly surprised when Maggie set up a slideshow on a table near the dance floor with a sneak peak of a collection of astounding photos that had been taken up until that point in the night. Maggie and Tori even joined us on the dance floor while snapping photos. Everyone couldn’t stop commenting on how fun they were!
Maggie made sure to text me 40 images the day after the wedding, and got a blog post up just a few days post-wedding. This post included over 150 of her favorite images, and they were all amazing. It was so nice to have these so soon after the wedding to share with friends and family.
Maggie is so incredibly talented, warm, and professional and did a beautiful job of capturing the day. It’s evident that she genuinely enjoys making connections with everyone she photographs and loves what she does. I would HIGHLY recommend her to photograph any event.
If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further! Maggie delivered us the most beautiful images, provided us with timely information and lead us through our wedding d...
ay flawlessly. Her professionalism coupled with her humor and laid back personality made her such an easy photographer to work with. We had a pretty large guest list and she made our day run so smoothly. If you are looking for beautiful images and a photographer who feels more like a friend, Maggie Mills Photography is the way to go!
Maggie was 100% the perfect pick. She makes it feel like you're snapping pictures with friends and makes taking pictures fun. Her personality is amazing and she finds ways to relat...
e to you (fellow Friends lover here!). This was especially important to my husband and I because we're both awkward in front of a camera and needed all the help we could get in terms of posing and guidance. She has a ton of energy that lasts through long days. Her photos always come out bright, clean, and classy. I usually hate looking at pictures of myself, but I can't stop looking at our sneak peek blog that we got SO quickly after the wedding. I am so obsessed and will show anyone who's willing. She also shot our engagement shoot this summer and made the stifling heat and humidity tolerable and somehow fun. We knew she was the right pick when we saw the engagement photos because they were gorgeous and actually got us excited to be in front of a camera our whole wedding day, which is something we were actually dreading before! We were luckily so wrong! Her second shooter was great and had a calming energy that really helped me when I got nervous before our first look. We got married in Winston-Salem and Maggie was super willing to drive over here at times most convenient to us. 12 out of 10 stars for Maggie!
Maggie is definitely a hidden gem! Her personality is magnificent. I loved working with her and she made the entire experience a blast! The quality of her work is unbeatable, and s...

When the pictures came back we were amazed!! They are absolutely stunning!! It's next to impossible to choose a favorite. I couldn't recommend Maggie more highly!

to our engagement photos, to our wedding day, we never stop looking at her photos with amazement. She is supremely talented, professional, and quite simply a dream to work with. She made us feel so comfortable and natural in front of her camera and I think it shows in our photos. She is a light and brings such joy with her wherever she goes! We are so very grateful that Maggie has walked alongside us in some of our most important moments and we know that she will remain in our lives for years to come. Maggie, thank you for being our photographer and friend and for using your God-given talent to create memories that will last a lifetime for us. We will always be cheering you on!
Maggie is phenomenal! My new hubby and I discovered her through mutual friends at Appalachian State. We booked her for our wedding before actually meeting her - crazy, I know.
We...
met her on a cool December afternoon for our engagement pictures, from the minute we stepped out of the car her bubbly personality captured us! Not once have we ever regretted our decision. We've been crazy about her ever since.
My hubby has stated that he was prepared for a little awkwardness, being that your love for someone, while the most beautiful aspect of life it is also the most personal - he has not once experienced it with Maggie. She makes is so comfortable and natural. She is so full of JOY and pure LOVE for what she does. Its not a job to her, it is her PASSION - she was called to do this. She jumps and squeals with happiness at finding the PERFECT shot! Its one of the many things we adore about her. Her pictures don't just capture a moment in time, a memory to remember - they tell a story. Maggie has photographed several sessions for us - engagement, save-the-date, bridal portraits, additional session with the bride, and 8 hours of wedding coverage.
Seriously, we are obsessed with Maggie! One of our very favorite things about Maggie is that she always keeps the experience going. Most photographers would send you a link and/or mail a USB of your wedding photos and be done. However, Maggie invited us over to her beautiful home and cooked for us! She then presented us with our wedding album, we went through every picture! We spent hours laughing and reliving our wedding day! We also received the most beautiful little box with a few 5x7 photos printed and our USB with pictures.
Maggie has become part of our family. A "wedding vendor" or "photographer" is what most people expect, however we have gained a lifelong friend. I've joked with Maggie stating she's stuck with us, we just LOVE her that much. We've already planned on her photographing future pregnancy reveals, births, and family portraits. The beauty to see love come full circle and having one photographer capturing it all! Its one thing for somebody to do a good job and feel you can recommend them for work (and we SO DO) - its an entirely different story when you love somebody so much you want to take them along on your entire love journey.
Maggie has been such a beautiful addition to our lives. We couldn't imagine a single chapter without her. Thank you for absolutely everything Maggie - your bubbly personality, your radiating grace and beauty, your southern sass and overflowing joy, cultural diversity and respect for all truly has captivated our hearts. We are super grateful for you and love you lots!!
Maggie has been our go-to for my small business headshots, images of our new corporate office and family shoots. She's reliable, helps everyone feel comfortable, has a great eye an...

Maggie is such a blessing , she did an amazing job on our engagement shoot as well as our wedding day.
Maggie’s passion and love for her work truly shines through in her pictures....
She did not rest until she got that perfect shot, and then leaped for joy when she finally got it!
Maggie also played amazing part in my bilingual wedding! I couldn’t have imagined it going so smoothly without her!
Can’t wait to see all the amazing pictures!
I had such a wonderful time working with Maggie! She made taking pictures fun & relaxing - not just a chore! One of my favorite things about Maggie is how expressive she is. She lo...
ves to scream and jump with joy when she knows she captured the perfect shot. Maggie did our engagement pictures, my bridal portraits, our wedding, and most recently our Christmas cards! I would highly recommend Maggie to capture your photography needs!
