Marci is the best!!
Marci is fantastic!!! I cannot imagine hiring anyone else to photograph our wedding. Marci could read our minds, capture every moment, and send us the polished photos so quickly after the wedding that it blew our minds. Marci is the best at what she does, cannot recommend her enough!

Marci Curtis for the win!
Marci is the best. As a photojournalist, she’s everywhere, but so stealth you’re not aware you’re being photographed. As a result her images are so candid and pure. They and she are just exceptional.
People look at images from our wedding and smile. Another thing, Marci knows everything about weddings! If you’re in need of a vendor, she has recommendations! She’s also a calming voice during the planning period and beyond. But it’s her photos and her approach that sets her apart. And she loves what she does. That really comes through in talking with her and in her incredible work.

Outstanding photography!!!
We are so thrilled that we were able to work with Marci for our wedding photography! Seriously—it was truly one of the best decisions we made throughout the whole wedding planning process. Here are just a few reasons why:
-Marci’s photography expertise is truly impressive, which is evident from her independent reviews, portfolio, and website content. While looking through her photos, I was struck by the artistry and photo journalistic style.
-Excellent value and transparency for the cost/investment.
-Marci is very responsive and helpful in planning the timeline of the day. If you’ve never planned a wedding before you might not know how long certain things tend to take. She’s also very prepared and can adapt on the fly. You can tell Marci is a true professional and that’s comforting on such an important day! Also it’s wonderful energy to be around someone that loves what they do.
-We got our photos back in under 1 week!!!
-In addition to my wife and I being SO happy with our photos, we had multiple people reach out to us commenting on how beautiful and stunning our photos are.
1000% recommend!

Hired after loving how my friends wedding photos turned out
Marci was amazing, and I would 100% recommend her and work with her again. She photographed my friend's wedding a few years ago and I liked how the photos turned out so much I decided to hire her myself when I got married. Her prices were good, and we loved how the photos turned out. The photos turned out to be a good mix of the posed photos and candids. You end up spending a good chunk of the day just one on one with the photographer and your spouse, and she was fun and helped us feel super comfortable and I couldn't be happier. We did the 8-hour package and received our photos 1 week after the wedding which was amazing! We definitely made the right choice.

Thank you Marci!
We hired Marci Curtis for our engagement photos in May 2023 and then our wedding on 12/16/23. I'm not even sure where to start because she was absolutely amazing to work with! She is creative and talented; we couldn't be more pleased with how both our engagement and wedding photos turned out. She uses her photos to tell a story and doesn't do the staged or fake photos that have become so popular lately. Her photos evoke genuine emotion. When we look back at our photos now, she captured an actual moment in time that we can remember instead of some silly pose we were forced to do. She is an exceptional communicator and had so much information to offer for planning a wedding that wasn't even related to photography! Marci answers emails quickly and is extremely thorough. We would hire her again in a heartbeat and actually anticipate doing so when we can come up with another occasion we need to capture! Thank you Marci!

Marci made our day even more perfect!
I can't say enough good things about Marci! My husband and I also hired her for our engagement shoot to get to know her before the wedding, totally recommend other couples do the same! She was so laid back and warm, but also professional and ready to work hard. Our photos are beyond gorgeous, worth every penny!

The Best Decision I Made While Planning
Marci is incredible to work with and she gets incredible shots. Honestly, I couldn’t imagine my wedding day without her! She’s so down to earth, can put you at ease, and has a lot of creative ideas. Not to mention… she’s so affordable, she delivers thousands of pictures, and you don’t have to wait months for your pictures, either. Thank you so much, Marci, I literally couldn’t have gotten through that day without your presence!

We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
Working with Marci is a breeze! She knows exactly what she is doing and what shots are must takes for her clients. Really love her creative shots too! Call her now if your looking for a fun, professional, seasoned photographer you won't be sorry!
Marci is first and foremost (from what my brides tell me) super to be with on their big day. This my friends is important because having a snotty photographer takes some fun out of the day. Second and certainly important she is an award winning photographer. I begged her to use some of her pics on my dj site!! I give Marci my highest recommendation !!!
