Chesapeake Charm Photography

Mandi was amazing and I can’t imagine having anyone else capture our day! She was incredibly flexible and understanding of all of our plan changes due to COVID. Working with Mandi felt like I was working with a best friend, I felt very comfortable with her and it felt like she was just excited as I was for our big day. I would highly recommend Chesapeake Charm and will definitely hire Mandi again in the future.

Even before we were engaged I was eyeing Mandi’s photography on social media and knew she was our top choice photographer. Luckily she was available for our date and delivered such amazing service and stunning photos. The entire gallery is perfect! Mandi is patient, kind, incredibly talented and a breeze to work with. Her bright and joyful style was the perfect way to capture our big day. The day truly goes by in the blink of an eye, but we thankfully have our photos Mandi captured to re-live the day again and again. Do yourself a favor and book Chesapeake Charm Photography!

We could not have imagined anyone else as our photographer for our wedding day! Mandi is amazing at what she does, and all of our photos turned out stunning. From the very beginning of the process, Mandi was so helpful and patient and gave us amazing advice. She made us both feel so comfortable in front of the camera and captured literally every aspect and detail of our wedding day. We cannot say enough amazing things about Mandi and her work! You will not regret choosing her as your photographer.

Mandi was so great to work with, very friendly and professional. Anne and Katherine were the photographers at our wedding and they both were excellent. Very attentive to their surroundings and did a great job at getting all the pictures we asked for. Our engagement photos came back beautifully, I can't wait to see the wedding photos!

We love all our wedding photos! Mandi did a great job capturing our intimate ceremony and reception. As someone who doesn’t typically like to be in front of the camera Mandi did a fantastic job of making us feel comfortable. I can’t recommend her enough!

Mandi is the absolute best and there just aren't enough words to describe how amazing she is. From the beginning, she was always super sweet and gave great advice as we planned our wedding. Our engagement photos were absolutely perfect! I instantly knew that Mandi was the perfect photographer for us.

On our wedding day, not only was Mandi an amazing photographer but an amazing friend. I couldn't have survived the day without her. She helped the day flow so smoothly and if anything crazy came up, she handled it! We had flooding on our wedding day and the original spot we were going to take pictures was not available. However, when I was told this, Mandi already had a plan in place. She looked for an alternative spot to get our photos on the water that wasn't far from the venue! She honestly saved me from having a meltdown lol. She also gave me tips throughout the night that really calmed my nerves and allowed me to relax. Even the small things (such as removing my hair tie from my wrist before walking down the aisle!) she did not forget. My wedding was amazing because of her.

Our pictures are absolutely fantastic. I cry every time I look at them. They are so beautiful and the variety/angles from throughout the day are astonishing. Mandi and her assistant are so talented. Your wedding day will go by quickly, but if you have an amazing photographer like Mandi, you will see the full day captured moment by moment. I have received so many compliments of our photos and have already hung large prints up around our house. They are just perfect. Thank you again Mandi!

Mandi was so sweet and great to work with! She captured every special moment of our special day!

Mandi was amazing to work with for our engagement and wedding photographs!

In the beginning stages, she was very responsive and receptive to my somewhat out of the ordinary request... to shoot our photos at sunrise. She thought outside of the box for us to create a package that fit for our vision and our day. Our engagement shots were awesome, shot at sunrise in two locations with an outfit change. Mandi rolled with it all seamlessly and our pics turned out incredible! Then on our wedding day, she basically played coordinator when ours dropped the ball and helped make sure we got all the important photos we wanted.

Our photos are candid, gorgeous, bright, and natural ... full of amazing photos we’ll cherish.

We may have had more than a couple things for our wedding go awry, but choosing Mandi was not one of those things!

Mandi was so amazing to work with for our engagement and wedding. I have been slow to review my wedding vendors but had to post about how great it was to work with Mandi and her team. She was able to capture images that we will cherish forever of us, our dog, our family and friends, and our beautiful venue. She kept us calm, smiling, and on track through storms and other unexpected issues. Mandi was able to improvise on the spot to keep everything running smoothly and we are so grateful that she was there on our big day. We also received a very special package with our images that felt so personal. Her pictures are incredibly beautiful but the person behind the camera really makes the experience!

I found Mandi on Instrgram (true story) and we could not be any more thrilled with her! Her photos are light, bright, and airy and everything we wanted. I can see them framed in my home for decades. I don't think I will ever stop loving them. From day one with Mandi, she was professional, communicative and lovely to work with. We did our engagement photos with her as part of a package, and while I argued and said we didn't need them, they came out wonderfully. Having seen the sneak peeks of our wedding photos so far, I can only imagine how stunning they will all be. Mandi knew how to tell us to pose, she got all the photos I was hoping to get, and she's just an absolute sweetheart. Her assistant (her mom - shout out to all the mom and daughter teams!!) is so so sweet and Maddy, her second shooter was wonderful. I am SO glad we worked with Mandi and can't wait (all in due time ;)) to reach out to her for some baby photos (down the roaddddd!!!)

Mandi was absolutely incredible. She did our engagement and wedding photos, and we could not have asked for better photographs for both. It started to rain on my wedding day and while I was panicking, Mandi searched around for an indoor spot for us to our first look. She found a beautiful room and saved the day! She also endured the rain just to get some shots outside. She and her second photographer were professional, fun, and just simply amazing. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone!!

We could honestly not be any happier that we hired Mandi for our wedding day!!! She was punctual, professional, and super easy to work with! She kept me relaxed while simultaneously keeping everyone else in line and on track throughout the day. Her assistant (who happens to be her wonderful mom) was so sweet and helpful and the second shooter was also fantastic! We received our photos back quickly and they are absolutely perfect! We are so beyond thrilled with how they turned out! Would 11/10 recommend her to anyone looking to have their wedding documented in the most beautiful way!!!

I was already raving about Mandi after our engagement photos, but I have to again for our wedding photos after having seen them on her website and the sneak peaks she gave us. Mandi is an absolute genius when it comes to light. We had an after-dark ceremony with lots of lanterns, candles, and other lighting elements, and the photos perfectly captured the fairy tale it felt like. I know it can't be easy shooting a wedding at night, but Mandi just thrived. She is excellent at styling, at capturing candid, genuine moments, and she is so much fun to work with. She is also very intuitive and professional. She's a gem!

Chesapeake Charm Photography/ Mandi are amazing!!! I have had her take pictures now on three occasions and there is no doubt that I love every single picture!! Mandi is so easy to work with and makes you feel comfortable immediately, making taking pictures a fun experience! Mandi took our engagement pictures and anniversary pictures and I love both sessions. She knew exactly my vision and delivered flawlessly! My only wish is that my wedding venue did not require us to use their provided photographer because I would have Mandi be my wedding photographer in a second!! I have even told my fiance numerous times that if I do not like how my wedding pictures come out that we are dressing up again in our wedding attire and having Mandi take the pictures!! She is amazing!! And I look forward to working with her in the future! LOVE LOVE LOVE her!!!

Our wedding day was a dream for so many reasons, and we are SO grateful that we chose Mandi to capture the magic. Mandi also shot our engagement photos, which were absolutely incredible. So far, we've only just received our 6 sneak peek wedding pictures, but we are head over heels in love with them! Mandi has an amazing talent of using natural light and capturing raw emotions. We know the rest of the photos will be just as magical. Apart from her AMAZING work, Mandi was truly a pleasure to work with! From when we first met, Mandi was organized and truly listened to our vision and did what she could to capture that. Her sense of humor and flexibility made her a calming presence on wedding day and so easy to work with. Thank you Mandi, you are the BEST! We'll be calling you back for anniversary and family photo sessions for sure! :) Highly recommend.
