Incredible

Carly is truly the most incredible photographer. Her photos are unbelievable (everyone we know continues to talk about our engagement + wedding photos). Her personality and energy are captivating (we had the most FUN during all of our photoshoots). Her timing is unheard of (days after our wedding we got our preview photos and family portraits; one month for our full album).
Carly is simply the best, and will leave you wanting to be her friend (she's really that cool!).

Best decision ever- hire her now

When I tell you that the BEST decision I made during my wedding planning was to hire THE CARLY MAC I am not exaggerating one bit. She is an absolute ROCKSTAR. From day one we were SO comfortable with her during our engagement photos. Let's be honest, those can be a little akward. She has this calming effect and great vibe that everyone immediately falls in love with. She makes you feel like you have known her for years and makes even the most anxious people relax (ME!). Carly is super talented and worth every penny. She keeps it simple and is SO quick at taking the actual photos. Her photos captured our day perfectly. She has a creative eye and is a freaking professional. Hopefully I won't be having another wedding anytime soon BUT if I do she will be my first vendor to book. Book her asap you will NOT regret it- hurry she books out QUICK.

Literally the best!

As we started the wedding planning process, we were often told that your photographer is someone that you should feel comfortable with so that it as easy as possible to capture the joy of your big day. Carly delivered on that in spades. From the very beginning, she showed an intuitive sense of how to capture perfectly candid moments and meet us where we were as a couple. During the engagement shoot, she focused on getting to know us so that she was comfortable on what to do when the big day came. Despite it being her first time at our venue, she was able to quickly identify the best spots for capturing some truly beautiful moments, and read when to take advantage of lighting for a quick photo and when to step aside and let us just enjoy the day. From start to finish, truly a remarkable photographer to work with. Hot Tip: Get the photo booth!

Book carly asap

No words can properly describe how grateful I am to have hired Carly as our wedding day photographer.
First Carly did our engagement photos and all I can say is WOW! She made the experience so fun and easy and our pictures turned out absolutely STUNNING.
Then on our wedding day Carly was once again an absolute rockstar. She kept us on time and made our day so much fun!! Pictures were enjoyable and effortless! My family and bridal party kept complimenting how sweet, fun and EFFICIENT Carly was.
In addition to Carly being a wonderful human, her pictures are absolutely incredible! Please do yourself a favor and stalk her instagram and then book her for your wedding. It will be the BEST decision you make!!

Amazing doesn't even begin to cover it

Carly, as a photographer and now as a friend, was more than I could have ever asked for. From the time we met at the bar over wings to discuss our wedding plans, to our engagement photos, to our actual wedding day, Carly took the time to listen, she talked with me over the phone, texted and emailed back and forth with me. I had zero nerves about my photos/photographer the days leading up to, and the day of my wedding. She's comfortable, funny, and professional, making it feel like you're getting AMAZING photos, but also spending the day with a friend. (Side note: my now husband thought we were meeting with photographers "too soon" and didn't want to go initially to the meet up with Carly.. by the end of dinner he was paying her tab.. so I guess you can say his mind was changed, not by me!!!) I am now pregnant, and one of the first things I did was text Carly to make sure she could do our maternity photos. I could go on for days about Carly.. I mean she even helped prep food the morning of my wedding!! She will forever be our photographer, and I would recommend her to every single bride and groom. You can't go wrong with Carly.

Highly recommend!!

Carly is the best!!! Hands down would recommend her to any bride. She knows what she’s doing and is extremely reliable! Day of the wedding she was so on top of each photo that we were ahead of schedule the whole time, which as a bride is extremely appreciated. She also did not hesitate to handle any situation that came up that would’ve prohibited her from capturing the best angles. She’s literally a brides dream! Also, her pictures are so fresh and bright, my husband and I want to print every single one because she captured each moment so perfectly! She provided us with a large sneak peek the very next day after our wedding and we received the full album only a couple weeks post wedding. We had such an amazing day and it’s largely due to Carly, plus we have amazing photos that we’ll cherish forever!!

Beyond my wildest dreams

Carly is an absolutely incredible photographer. I fell in love with her photos and knew I needed her for my wedding. She is extremely organized and makes you feel so at ease on your big day. She is hilarious and brings the best sense of humor, making you feel like you’ve been friends forever! Besides just being an awesome person, let’s talk about her pictures. Two word: simply incredible! She goes above and beyond! She has many different ideas but is also willing to do whatever the bride and groom want for pictures. She knows all the right spots and all the right angles to give you the best pictures. When I received my pictures from the big day (which she did so quickly) I was floored! They were more than I could have ever asked for! Carly (and her team) are THE BEST!

Highly recommend

Carly and Anni were absolutely amazing! They put everyone at ease and did a great job taking the right balance of candid and posed shots. We love how the photos turned out. Our guests were impressed and gave a lot of compliments about their professionalism and creativity. It was fun and easy working with Carly & her second shooter, from engagement pictures to day of.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
