Molly Madeira Photography

because of her calming presence from our first meeting. We are both very nervous in front of the camera, but she made us feel relaxed and took so much of the stress out of the process with fun prompts and guidance. She was a lot of fun to work with and took so much of the pressure off our wedding day. We loved her emphasis on fun, candid shots that showed our personalities along with more traditional photos. We were absolutely blown away when we saw our photos for the first time and could not be happier!

l 20 person wedding and Molly captured the day and details perfectly.

wedding day, and she delivered!! The photos were everything I dreamed of. Molly is just so fun to work with - when she directed the bridesmaid getting ready photos, it was like working with a friend. Literally such a wonderful addition to the bridal suite to have someone as kind as Molly around. Also, during the wedding and reception, we never noticed Molly and her second photographer around, yet they were capturing beautiful images of the day. Our wedding did not feel like a big photoshoot, and yet every image I could have possibly wanted was captured. My husband and I wholeheartedly recommend Molly for literally any photography need you have. 10/10

derstand us as a couple and what we wanted out of photographs. I am SO happy with the final photos - she captured the day perfectly!!

mfortable with our choice in her!

t but she was super flexible with location and time and date! She was great with all our kids! She got every pose we asked for plus some! My husband also hired her for our engagement photos… which is exactly why we kept her for the wedding! Can’t say anything else besides amazing!

tion. Little did we know at that time how wonderful of a person she was as well. We first asked Molly to help us shoot an intimate elopement in a local park and were blown away by her ability to capture the whole afternoon so well for us and how comfortable it was having her there. We didn’t think twice when it came to finding a photographer for a wedding reception/celebration one year later. We were thrilled to have her with us again and within days of the event, we were sent a beautifully organized series of albums full of wonderfully captured memories. All edited to perfection. We can’t thank Molly enough and will be hiring her for events as long as she’ll stick around!

uld charge thousands more. If you are debating who to hire… your search is over. Molly is AMAZING!! My partner and I are both notoriously bad at being in front of a camera. We get uncomfortable and have painfully fake “camera smiles” that we usually can’t control or get rid of. With Molly, all that vanished! She was so good at bringing out natural smiles - pricelessly important! - but also gets plenty of more serious romantic photos as well. Also for some reason I thought I’d have to come up with most of the shot concepts (which now seems silly). Being so busy with wedding planning, by the time we arrived for our engagement photos I had nothing. I soon realized that was NOT a problem- of course, Molly is a professional and had no shortage of ideas. She directed us in where and how to stand which was such a relief. As we did so, she asked us playful questions and gave us little word games to play that made us smile and laugh genuinely. She also rolled with the punches as we hadn’t warned her we both had brought 2-3 outfits😂she waited patiently and not only did we end up having fun, the photos were beautiful!! By now I’ve received a sneak peek of our wedding photos too, and I am EVEN MORE IMPRESSED. I love them so much I could cry. When searching for a photographer within our price range, I browsed other portfolios that were quite pretty but felt more staged and formal. (While I loved BEING staged, I didn’t want them to appear awkwardly so.) I consulted my friends on who to hire, but didn’t tell them my preference and they ALL agreed. Molly’s pictures from the engagement feel intimate, playful, romantic, moody. Her photos so far from the wedding are even better. She finds the best lighting too!!! And she guided a shot that I was skeptical about at the time (sort of a wreath of bridesmaid flowers around my face) which is now one of my favorites. I’ve heard the same from my husband and bridesmaids too, everyone has pointed out how much they love that one. Trust her❤️she also seemed wonderfully relaxed, which was just the energy I needed on my wedding day. Molly is a sweet soul and truly top of the line🥰
