Maura Jane Photography

tiple date changes, Maura has been helping me for almost 3 years! She was there to offer advice on vendors and maintained so much excitement for our wedding. I am pretty sure she was emailing me while in the hospital right after having her beautiful baby girl. That's just who she is, a true professional who really cares about her couples. She was so helpful and flexible when we decided to split our wedding day in two. I could go on and on about how thankful I am for her responsiveness! Now for the photos - ohmygoshilovethemsomuch. Seriously, the photos are beyond what I could have ever imagined. She captured our days so beautifully and I am so happy! Thank you Maura Jane Team! 100/10 recommend!

ove between her couples in the most beautiful locations. Her photos are light, airy and pure magic. After deep diving into her website and instagram, I was obsessed, and didn’t book a venue till I knew she was available. Once we secured MJP we spoke on the phone with Maura and it felt like I was talking to an old friend. She was always available to answer any questions and provided guidance during the wedding planning process. She provided the cutest welcome box with gifts and a handbook filled with tons of tips and information for wedding day. I absolutely loved working with Maura. She’s professional, beyond talented and she truly loves what she does. We loved how excited she would get if the wind picked up or if the weather slightly changed because it meant better photos. She puts a lot of heart and love into her work and it shows in her pictures (let’s be real, it’s a work of art!) I love that she was just as excited as we were for our all of our photos from engagement to wedding sneak peaks. I absolutely love working with Maura and her team, booking MJP was the easiest and best decision we made while wedding planning. We now have gorgeous photos that we will cherish for a lifetime and a family photographer for all our future family portraits.

is SO kind and thoughtful throughout the whole process with email and text check-ins, advice and even sneak peeks the very next day after my wedding. Sarah was the main photographer for the engagement shoot & wedding weekend and my husband and I truly loved working with her. Her photos are stunning and she captured our wedding so beautifully while making us feel so comfortable and natural. I highly recommend MJP and Sarah! They are best in class!

ent session. She was also such a huge help on the wedding day. She even pinned my veil! It was incredibly windy on the day of our wedding, and she was so calm and flexible the whole time, which helped my husband and I feel calmer, too. And somehow the photos seem to have turned out even better due to the wind! Her artistic vision is impeccable and we will treasure our wedding photos for the rest of our lives. We seriously can’t say enough good things about her!

ll in love her her romantic, airy style of photography. I would have even changed my date if she wasn’t available! When I told any of my vendors who my photographer was, they had nothing but great things to say about her team, which I think says a lot that her peers also recommend her! The whole process, from booking all the way through receiving my photos has been wonderful. Planning a wedding was a stressful process and I had a lot of issues with communication with other vendors, but communication with Maura’s team was always easy and prompt. She even communicated with one of my bridesmaids instead of me in the days before the wedding to save me some stress, and I so appreciated that! Her attention to detail and thoughtfulness helped keep my stress low and I wish all vendors could be like that! On the wedding day, Maura and her team helped keep everything on time and organized. It was so cool to watch her process and she how she gets those beautiful detail shots! My husband and I can be awkward, but Maura gave great direction and we had a lot of fun taking our photos; I have a lot of great laughing shots to prove it! We were worried we would look awkward in the photos but I’m so happy with how they turned out! We got our sneak peeks and even our actual photos so quickly and now my hardest decision is which ones to print! Maura’s photography speaks for itself with how beautiful it is, but how kind, professional, and helpful she and her team are behind the camera is why I will recommend MJP to every engaged couple!

her obvious talent and beautiful photography, she is incredibly fun, helpful, and easy to work with. My wedding truly was a better experience because of her. Maura is a true professional and she is fantastic at what she does, i cant recommend her enough.

love with the style of the photos-- very romantic, vibrant, and elegant. After finalizing our contract, we received a book in the mail from MJP going over what to expect on the day-- so thoughtful! My husband and I live out of state and MJP worked with us when our original plan for our engagement photos had to be postponed due to weather. Maura helped us find a time to reschedule to make sure we got these photos taken. Arielei made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and kept us on time to ensure we got all of the important shots. She was friendly, professional, and especially great with the kids. We couldn't be happier with our photos and will have a hard time deciding which ones we want printed! Photos were very important to us and MJP captured all of the special moments perfectly. I highly recommend Arielei and the MJP team for your engagement and wedding photos!!

they do and will make each moment feel special. Choose Maura Jane Photography, it will be the best decision you make!

iorities for our photos/event. We hoped for sunset photos with snowy mountains in the background. Her next question was timeline, which brought out her gentle spirit and command of all things related to photography. The original timeline didn’t work for the winter sunset. She immediately checked online for sunset times and presented a few alternate timelines with tradeoffs for each of them. Maura clearly understood our hopes and how to make that happen for us. There was no question, Maura was right for us. Our engagement photos were stunning. Knowing our love of the outdoors and hiking, Maura suggested a beautiful spot in a state park for sunset photos. We were nervous about the session because we typically hide from cameras, but we had a great time. Maura made us feel so comfortable. We spent nearly all of the session laughing and smiling. It felt like we were hanging out with an old friend. As a result, the photos really captured our personalities. We received so many text and social media messages about how spectacular the photos in the sneak peek were. One friend called to say Maura captured the “love and light” as well as the “joy” in our relationship. It set an incredibly high bar for measuring our wedding photos, which they exceeded. Our wedding photos are magical. They are wondrous and exceptional. Our friends and family have only seen Maura’s social media posts, but we’ve already received messages saying: “absolutely incredible”, “absolutely FABULOUS”, and “amongst the best wedding photos I have EVER seen”. They haven’t even seen some of the best. Maura went above and beyond to make this happen. She arrived early with her team the day of the wedding because the radar suggested rain and snow could interfere with the plan. Maura and the team kept an eye on the weather while calmly and positively suggesting we move up the schedule, if possible. They were on it. There were also unknowns with family photos because of some health issues. Maura was so supportive and sensitive to these issues on our wedding day. She was attuned to the needs of all who were being photographed, and visually checked-in with me to see if I agreed with her assessment on wrapping it up or taking more photos. Hannah and Alissia were equally thoughtful. Maura knew the wedding venue well, and already knew the spots where we could make sure to get photos that included the surrounding mountains and later the wonderful sunset. Again, she had asked us the right questions in advance about what we hoped for and made a plan based on our conversation. There are so many things that set Maura apart as a photographer and human. For me, a photo of me and my mom in our sneak peek portrays how exceptional Maura is as a person. She knew this would be special for me, and a gift to receive early. This was a truly personal and thoughtful gesture. We received photos that exceeded our hopes and dreams. Our experience working with Maura Jane Photography was full of joy and happiness. I highly recommend Maura and team for any of your photography needs – wedding or otherwise – anywhere in the world. They are phenomenal.

and her team are truly more than just photographers. Her turn around time with my pictures was SO fast and the photos came out spectacular. I cannot recommend Maura and her team enough!

rah took our engagement and wedding photos and and made us feel so comfortable - she felt like a good friend right away! I can’t get over how beautiful our photos came out. Thank you Maura and Sarah for capturing such an important day in our lives you ladies are truly the best!!

he best of hands and it made the most special day that much more enjoyable. Maura's photos are also stunning. I was hoping for a handful of good ones and there are literally hundreds. Over a month later, we are still pouring through them and discovering new gems. Thank you, Maura!

line with me and know what details I wanted captured. Love y'all!

s already booked on that day. Being a wedding photographer myself, I am very picky, and Maura blew my expectations out of the water! I could not be happier with our wedding and engagement photos she created for us!

d was full of so many great recommendations. Sarah and Hannah were the photographers at our wedding and were so helpful in making sure we got all the photos we wanted and more. We seriously loved them and they were very professional! They helped to keep us on time and were so detail oriented. We got so many comments from our bridal party, family, and guests about how impressed they were with Sarah and Hannah and their work. We were amazed at how fast Maura was in getting us our photos and are so happy with the quality and number of photos we have. Maura and her team are nothing short of amazing and we absolutely recommend them!!

chose them to capture our special day! I have absolutely nothing but positive things to say about them and my experience. Book these ladies!!!!!

t only is Maura’s photography top-of-the-line, but she is also amazing to work with. I felt entirely supported by her throughout our entire wedding process. She provided countless recommendations for various vendors and was quick to respond whenever I had a question or needed advice. Maura and Hannah were also the perfect addition to our wedding day. They made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and made taking our portraits a fun and memorable part of our day. We had a blast hanging out with them and I felt like they were old friends by the end of the night. I highly recommend booking Maura Jane Photography- you will be left with amazing photos and a professional yet fun experience.

ing together, and we can't thank you enough for making our big day so special and seamless! Not to mention the turnaround time on the photos are very prompt! I would highly recommend Maura Jane Photography to anyone who is planning on getting married soon!!!

tatic when my wedding planner said that they were available for our wedding date! To say that they are the absolute best wedding photographer team in the Southwest is an understatement! Not only is their work artistic, creative and captivating, but Maura is so thoughtful and professional. As soon as we booked with them, Maura reached out to us by email and phone to get to know us personally. She then sent us the sweetest care package that included a detailed “wedding handbook” to help guide us through the entire process from our engagement photos to our actual wedding day! For our engagement session in March, our photographer Sarah recommended a location at White Mesa. Even though it was a very cold day (with a little bit of snow on the ground), Sarah made us so comfortable, she had us laughing through our shivers; producing the most stunning photos! When it came to our wedding day, Sarah and Hannah were so patient, kind, and understanding with our big family. We are so in love with every photo from our wedding day. Everything we were hoping was captured, absolutely was, and more! Thank you so much MJ Photography, for the beautiful attention to detail, and for capturing all of the small and big moments of our incredible day. It is so special we will have these photos to cherish forever.

They captured our wedding in such a fun way! Loved seeing all of the candid pictures and all the personalities of our guests. Also, we got our pictures back so fast!! We even got a sneak peak of over 100 pictures that weekend! My friends couldn't believe that we already had pictures back. Couldn't recommend them enough!

ut everything related to a wedding day. We loved having her and Hannah apart of our day and LOVE the few photos we have seen so far. Highly recommend this team for your wedding day!!

ok on pretty much “how to be a bride” (I needed all the help I could get!), answered ALL of my questions (picture related and not), and just completely made me so comfortable on my wedding day and leading up to it. I truly hired the best I could when it comes to something I will literally have forever… pictures of the most special moments of my life. Thank you times a million Maura, Hannah, and crew. You girls make such an impact on so many people’s lives without even knowing it!

hrough three wedding dates thanks to covid and even moved our contract over to a travel one when our second planned New Mexico wedding date just didn't pan out. Sarah and Hannah shot the most incredible/beautiful pictures on our special day and ensured that we were able to take pictures with everyone who was able to attend. We could not have picked a better team to spend our day with! So excited to plan future family shoots with the MJP team and will forever recommend this incredible team to anyone planning a wedding/elopement.

of the unfortunate couples that had to postpone our wedding and Maura and her team were extremely flexible in adjusting our wedding date. The photos that Maura and Sarah captured of our special day were truly the most beautiful photos and the memories that each photo holds is timeless!!! Maura's photos help us RELIVE the BEST DAY of OUR LIVES each and every single day. We will definitely have the MJP Family take photos of all our future memories :) - Melanie G.
