    Simply The Best

    I can’t recommend Maggie enough! She is so amazing and so much fun to be around and work with! She became a great friend throughout our engagement and it helped everything go so smoothly the day of our wedding! Her and Stacey perfectly captured the beauty of our dream October wedding. She had over 80 sneak peaks back to us the following day and they were all incredible! I cannot stop obsessing over all the amazing shots they got! I can’t wait to have her capture our family for years and years to come!!!

    Maggie is amazing!

    I cannot say enough great things about Maggie!! If you're looking for a wedding photographer I highly recommend. She is amazing to work with. Not only is she dependable, quick to respond to any questions... And I mean ANY questions she is an amazing woman. She made sure to capture any pictures I had ideas of, and ones didn't even think of, along with amazing candid moments. She put me at ease during the planning process and was EXTREMELY patient and kept us on track during the chaos on the wedding day. Maggie has not only become my photographer for everything, she has also become an amazing friend. You will not regret choosing Maggie to capture all the special moments in your big day!

    The best photographer in the world!

    I wholeheartedly recommend Maggie! She is the best, and made our wedding day so much easier. She is so professional, and personable. Communication was great and she is the sweetest! BOOK HER NOW! I wouldn't have wanted anyone else to do our wedding pics.

    Maggie and the team were great to work with! The whole team was professional, and fun! Prompt, available, and great work. They even took extra time in the cold weather for our engagement session to capture the moment!

    In booking photography for our wedding I was hesitant, as candidly, I’m typically not a fan of being in photos and hate the awkwardly posed, unnatural ones you often see. Upon meeting with Maggie, she immediately made us comfortable and was easy to work with. We held a mini ‘engagement session’ prior to the wedding to get a feel for each other and we had so much fun! Maggie made it comfortable and enjoyable, and wow, when the pictures came back I was shocked at how awesome they were. In the past I’d typically only like a couple of photos out of a whole shoot; with Maggie, it was opposite in that we loved nearly all the photos! She has a knack for creativity and catching those little moments.

    On our wedding day, she and Stacy worked as a two-person team and were beyond fantastic! They helped keep everyone in line and on schedule, and again, caught the sweet moments and best shots. We had our dog, kids, crazy wedding party, and big mixed families and they did amazing with it all. I’ve only seen a few of the sneak peek shots so far but of the couple I’ve seen, I’m already beyond happy.
    We will absolutely continue working with Maggie in the future for family photos, etc. and I would recommend without hesitation.

    Thank you Maggie and Stacy for spending our day with us and capturing all the special moments in time!

    Wedding Photos

    We absolutely loved our wedding pictures with Maggie! She was able to travel with us to Oregon and take pictures the whole week of my family hanging out and at our wedding. Her professional, fun, and love for photography captured all our our special moments. I can’t express enough how grateful I am to her for sharing such an important day with us and being able to show us the beauty we may have been missing that day with all the chaos of a wedding! Thank you Maggie!!

    Do yourself a favor and hire MG!

    I hired Maggie to photograph our wedding in 2017. I had been photographed by her several years prior, and was always happy with her work. She absolutely exceeded my expectations for our wedding. She was a calm and supportive presence throughout the day, was never in the way, and somehow managed to get some incredible candids to help us preserve the beautiful memories. Thank you for everything, Maggie!

    Started with our wedding and here we are 3 years later

    It was pure magic from the beginning. The moment I met Maggie, I knew instantly she was going to capture and go above and beyond all of our photography needs. Clearly I was spot on with my intuition because 3 years later she still amazes me with her outstanding skills and amazing photos.

    It all started when we requested Maggie for our engagement and wedding photos. Initially she was busy the weekend of our wedding, we were bummed, but understood. Maggie and my husband had coordinated a pre wedding photo shoot where we took some beautiful Des Moines skyline shots and then ventured over to Woodland Cemetery. Prior to photos- we arranged to have dinner downtown, little did I know, she had a huge surprise up her sleeve. She presented my husband and I with a letter which we thought just listed prices and details of the shoot we were going to do. Oh no. She got us good! It was a letter stating that her prior commitment on our wedding day had been cancelled and she could now do our wedding. I was thrilled because I could tell by her previous work and how instantly we connected over a friendship, she was the perfect fit to capture our big day. She knew how much it would mean to us to have her at our wedding and she wanted to make it as special as possible. The way she put this surprise together was more than I would have ever expected and truly showed how much she cares for her customers.

    Since then, Maggie has captured all of our family photos and always has the best ideas for scenery and layout. She also goes along with some of my crazy ideas and makes them happen. From fall family photos to dog portraits, she does it all and always shows how much she loves doing it.

    Maggie is incredibly professional to work with, but never makes a photo shoot uncomfortable or sterile- we are always laughing and having the best time. She is easy to get along with and always wants to make sure you are happy with her work and will do whatever it takes to accomplish that. She’s dedicated to her photography and customers. I recommend Maggie to everyone and anyone (of which many of my friends and family have had photos taken with her now) and I know many people who would say and feel the same. Meeting Maggie was a blessing- she is our lifetime photographer and I am so grateful for that!

    Amazing work

    Maggie did our engagement and wedding photos. She truly made both experiences feel so comfortable and effortless. Meeting and going over what photos that were important definitely helped with the photos the day of wedding. Helped with the flow of the day when trying to decide how we wanted to do pictures. Our pictures are amazing! Worth every penny!
