Molly is amazing!!!!

Molly photographed my September, 2023 wedding and did an amazing job. All of the photos turned out gorgeous, and she made my now husband and I feel so comfortable and relaxed during our photos, even though we’re both a little awkward in front of a camera lol.

Molly did an awesome job directing family members and bridal party for their photos as well and they all turned out wonderfully. She helped keep the day running smoothly and I couldn’t recommend her enough.

Molly was so prepared, and made sure all details were discussed and squared away ahead of the wedding, and it really just made the whole experience less stressful knowing that we could trust her!

Molly is THAT Photographer!

If you're on the hunt for THE BEST wedding photographer, you've gotta check out Molly! We looked at many wedding photographers’ websites and instagram profiles and when we came across Molly’s website we fell in love with her style and her photography… it is high-end, artsy, and had this beautiful, bright, soft lighting.

At first we signed a contract for an engagement photoshoot and after we saw our photos we were so excited that we wanted to have Molly as our wedding photographer as well.

Once we signed a contract with her, it was clear she's detail-oriented and professional. Working with her was a breeze, both before and on the wedding day – and that was a relief. I cannot imagine working with so many people on a wedding day and Molly was nothing but kind and patient and excited for all of us. I absolutely admire the way Molly can work with so many people at once and have patience and kindness for all of us.

We were so excited to see the sneak peeks the next day on Molly’s Instagram. And I believe we received the rest of the gallery after a month.

My biggest concern was to not have too many good pictures because I have a talent of blinking on all of my photos and I was so happy to see we had all photos with my eyes open! And all the pictures were so beautiful. It is so hard to pick our favorites for the album now!

Molly has many different price options and we had our contracts signed separately for the engagement photoshoot and for the wedding. But after working with Molly and having this awesome experience I think we should have selected an option with everything included. Do not have any doubts about working with Molly and I promise you this investment is so worth it!

Skilled, Professional, and a Wonderful Person!

We hired Molly for our wedding this past August. From the beginning she was a delight to work with. Molly really made us feel comfortable during our engagement shoot to get used to be professionally photographed. During the planning process, she regularly checked in and helped create a schedule for the big day that exactly met our needs. Of course, Molly's work speaks for itself. She is an incredibly talented photographer and we could not have asked for better photographs from the big day.

Molly is also just an incredibly friendly and patient person. We hired her very early on in the process and often had life events that kept us from replying promptly to some emails Molly sent us. Not once did Molly give us any trouble for our delay, and she would promptly reply and keep the ball moving. I would highly recommend Molly to anyone in the DC area (and beyond)!
