Incredible. We felt comfortable to be ourselves and had the peace of mind we were going to have stunning photos to last a lifetime with all our loved ones.
We met Millie in Oregon for our photos on the coast. She immediately made my husband and I feel at ease for our bridal portraits. She was so fun and easy to work with. The weather ...
had been so bad the week leading up to our shoot date and despite the bad weather, Millie was our ultimate hype gal making our time together fun, freeing, romantic, and just giving us space to be ourselves which is super important when hiring someone. We would definitely hire her again.
Milly not only delivers breathtaking photos- she provides an incredible experience. She prioritizes your love and vision for the whole day! You part ways feeling celebrated and see...
n. And then you receive the magic she makes and you fall in love all over again and again as you look through them a million times.
Milly photographed my partner and I’s couples boudoir shoot and our wedding this year. If you want someone to make you and your partner feel like you are the hottest people on the ...
planet, Milly is the one for you. If you want someone who will go barefoot in a rainstorm in the forest to make sure she gets the perfect picture, Milly is the one for you. Milly is going to show up and make sure all the big and little moments are captured throughout your wedding day. She is going to make sure that your truest (& most stunning) self show through in her photos. As a person, Milly has such a calming and supportive energy. As a photographer, she is a hardcore, badass, master of the lens. The Rose Reflective totally kicks ass.
Millie was recommended from our wedding planner and we are SO GLAD we connected with her. She really understood our desire for laid-back and less stereotypical photography. We had ...
a great engagement session and have gotten tons of compliments on our photos.
Most of all we felt really comfortable working with her and are pumped for our wedding with her next year!
I absolutely cannot speak highly enough about our experience working with Milly (The Rose Reflective). From the first time meeting Milly over Zoom I knew she was the photographer I...
wanted to capture our wedding day. Not only is she a wonderful, funny, creative human being. She is also fiercely dedicated to the same values as us. You will probably not find a more inclusive, supportive, and badass photographer than Milly. From our couples steamy boudoir shoot to the day of our wedding, I have not questioned my decision of picking Milly for a second. Her creative eye and editing style is so dreamy, so ethereal, so cinematic. I could go on forever about how amazing our experience was, but just look at her instagram and website and you’ll see her talent. 100/10 recommend.
Milly is just the best. I cannot recommend her enough. We still look at our wedding pics in awe every single day. She is also the coolest person and I am now a forever fan of he...

Milly is not only an incredible photographer by craft, but your most valuable asset on wedding day. She was able to construct beautiful moments that basically just felt like playti...
me. Becca and I could not have asked for a more professional yet open hearted and passionate person to document the greatest day of our life together.
Milly was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Her work is stunning and speaks for itself. So, I will speak to her as a person, vendor, and all around delight to have aroun...
d on my wedding day. Milly was hands down my favorite vendor my partner and I chose to work with. She made us feel comfortable and supported and free to do what we wanted on our day. She’s warm, inclusive, and will help you look amazing on your day. Speaking from experience because I do not know how to act in front of a camera. She even orchestrated a super fun last song dance-off with all of remaining guests to Hey Ya. Milly will go above and beyond for you on your day and that is invaluable.
Milly is one of the most intentional people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. She is so good at story telling through a lens and is constantly working on her craft. A matern...
ity session she did for me just a few weeks before my son was born early is still so incredibly meaningful. They meant so much and gave me comfort to look back on while he was in the NICU. She truly cares about her clients and goes the extra mile. I’m so proud of Milly as a friend and as a colleague. <3
Hire Milly, you will not regret it! We were about to sign a contract with another photographer for our wedding, but when we met with Milly, it was clear that her passion, kindness,...
and skills are unmatched. Once you’re a client of Milly’s, it feels like you’re a part of her family forever! I seriously have not heard of another photographer that goes above and beyond like Milly does. The quality of her services is truly priceless, and she truly ensures that everyone feels comfortable, safe, relaxed, and loved.
Her communication and planning were incredibly helpful on our big day, and she really did an impeccable job of making sure everything went smoothly. She also picked up coffee for the wedding party, helped with boutonnieres, and did so many little things on the day of the wedding. In fact, Milly was the most helpful vendor we hired; she’s just that great!
We received so many pictures and GIFs from our big day, that almost two years later, I’m still noticing little moments she captured. In addition to our wedding, we’ve had Milly shoot our engagement photos, a boudoir session, a mini-session in the woods, and we have an upcoming family session booked. Wouldn’t want anyone else to capture our milestones as a couple. The Rose Reflective is 11/10. Book her!
Milly left me SPEECHLESS. Seriously.
I was very intentional in the vendors I chose who would bring our big day to life. I wanted folks who were LGBTQ+ inclusive, celebrated all bo...
dies, and let us just be our most authentic selves. Milly was all that and then some. We jived so well and you can see that in the incredible images she was able to capture. No stiff posing, no awkward prompts, just me, my partner, and our nearest & dearest doing our thing and loving on each other like we always do.
Choose vendors who you like, whose work you love, and who you can trust to do what you’re hiring them to do.
Milly not only shot our wedding and engagement, but we’ve gone back to her two more times for an anniversary shoot and a family session. Our wedding felt very “us,” and Milly was a...
huge reason why. She captured the vibe we wanted but also brought so much creativity to her work. She truly cares about her couples and really gets to know you and understand you. Not only is her work stunning, but she’s also a wonderful person who makes you feel totally comfortable and understood.
