We couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Sean Mac Media for our winter wedding! It meant so much to support a local business—especially a high school friend—while still receiving truly professional, high-quality photos. Sean handled all the weather hiccups with ease and helped keep the day running smoothly. He was wonderful to work with, and having the photobooth through him as well made everything so simple—one less vendor to coordinate! His team was incredibly helpful assisting guests at the booth, and it was such a fun addition to our day. Highly recommend!

I couldn’t be more thankful for Sean during my wedding planning experience. From our first communications, he was friendly, professional, and open about how the process would go, from coordinating an engagement shoot (we live in New York so we had to plan ahead), to discussing payment, to organizing the details of the day, to the actual day itself. It felt like we were working with a friend the whole time, and he made it easy to pose for photos without feeling corny or uncomfortable. Neither my husband nor I are particularly fond of posing for photos; Sean knew how to help us and also took suggestions for poses that we wanted to try. The photos themselves are stunning. Our wedding was in October and we got the photos back in December, which is a pretty standard period of time for weddings. Looking at the photos makes me feel emotional reflecting on the amazing day and grateful that I found Sean on The Knot. Thank you again, Sean, for everything!!

Hi ya! My name is Sean McFarland, but you can call me Sean Mac. No, I am not related the creator of Family Guy, Seth McFarlane, at least I don't think... Anywho, for the past 10 years, I have been able to turn a passion of shooting weddings into a profession of mine. I enjoy meeting and serving couples by doing something that I love day in and day out. Whether it's working with my camera, producing music in my home office or working my day job as a Video Producer, I wouldn't trade what I do for anything. I am glad that you are here and would love to get to you know you and your partner!

os we wanted (and may not have even known we wanted). Our wedding was at the St. Louis Zoo with our getting ready photos at the nearby Cheshire. Sean and his second arrived bright and early to capture details and helped us with moments we realized would be nice to commemorate. They were both game for our mild insanity running around the zoo before the ceremony and after so we could take photos with animals, and it was a fantastic experience. They stayed attentive and made sure to jump in if we asked for anything specific. Importantly for us, they never felt overbearing or in the way or at all awkward-inducing. The vibe was great and we could not have asked for a better photographer. Absolutely recommend.

The last thing you want to be is stressed about getting all the pictures you want & with Sean you don’t have to worry about anything! He answered all of my questions so quickly, got along so well with my bridal party, and captured every minute of the best day of my life. If there’s one thing you want to be stress free, it’s photography. You need to book with Sean Mac Photography! Also super affordable for all of the pictures & time you get him!
