“Mary makes you so comfortable; it feels like everyday living when she comes into your home. She gives gentle guidance, and her work is beyond just beautiful — there’s a rawness to it, a sincerity. I haven’t seen anything else like it.

As a mom, this time is so delicate and it flies by so fast, so it’s really nice to know I’ve captured it in some way. I would do it a thousand times over just to make sure that I have these memories.”

“Mary's silly and vibrant and empowering. She’s able to manage multiple kids looking in all directions and somehow make magic. She's just got this inner calm that makes you so at ease even if she’s being wild to get the kids' attention. And you don’t leave frustrated — it’s an enjoyable process. Her work is truly stunning and so important.”

“If you're anything like me, you feel a bit overwhelmed at the idea of maternity photos. It can be such a personal, emotional time and I was hesitant to sign up for yet another moment to be the center of attention.

Mary immediately erased all of those anxieties and was such a calming, warm presence. She put me at ease from the get-go by chit-chatting and sharing her own vulnerable experience in early motherhood.

Not only did I receive a beautiful gallery of images, but I feel like I made a friend by the end of our session. If you're looking for artistic, graceful set of portraits by a wonderful human being - Mary's your gal.”
