I won the lottery when we hired Marilyn to photograph our wedding. She is not only super talented, but an absolute joy to work with. She immediately got who my husband and I were, and was able to translate that to photo. My husband has an interesting sense of humor and she was able to jump right in and joke along with with him. She is professional, but still knows how to have fun and put her photo subjects at ease. Everyone we know can't stop gushing over how amazing our photos came out! Thank you Marilyn for being the amazing human that you are and for helping to make our day so special!

Marilyn shot our wedding in March and we loved working with her. Right from our engagement session last spring, we had this feeling that Marilyn was the perfect fit for capturing our special day, and boy, were we right on the money!

Leading up to the wedding, Marilyn was a breeze to work with and was extremely accommodating and responsive to emails. We received the preview images a week after the wedding and we are over the moon! Marilyn's photos didn't just capture the big moments and tiny details, they somehow managed to freeze-frame all the emotions of the day. We expect that revisiting the photos will transport us back to the day, over and over again!

In addition to her professionalism and talent, Marilyn is also an incredibly sweet person who provided a really calming presence, especially during those hectic moments. It felt like she genuinely cared about us, not just as clients, but as people too.

In short, Marilyn and her assistant, Emma, were an absolute dream to work with. We're beyond grateful for their talent, professionalism, and the genuine care they put into every shot. Now, we're just counting down the days until we get our hands on the full album to relive all those magical moments!

Marilyn is a phenomenal photographer/person in general and you shouldn’t hesitate to book her - I’ve recommended her to basically everyone I know getting married or has even the most distant of plans to get married. She goes above and beyond the basic responsibilities of a photographer and genuinely loves documenting love. I hope to book her for literally anything in the future. She was the very first vendor we booked in our entire wedding planning process and set the bar waaaay too high for everyone else. She was one of the few vendors we reached out to that did an initial Zoom consultation. I think based on rom-coms I had this crazy idea in my head that wedding planning was done through in-person appointments, but I quickly learned most is done through emails and phone calls making it all feel a little impersonal. Our first meeting with Marilyn was amazing and it felt like she was really invested in learning about us as a couple and the type of photography experience/style we were looking for. Her kind and thoughtful personality led us to book her for our engagement shoot and wedding straight away. She definitely can meet you at whatever level of crazy you’re currently running at. For example, for our engagement shoot I had made a whole powerpoint of the types of shots I wanted as well as potential outfits. So detailed that I had test-run a NYC ferry ride and selected backdrops along the way. She insanely obliged to all my requests and the photographs are a beautiful homage to our neighborhood. I did a complete 180 by the wedding and I told Marilyn I trusted her artistic vision completely and had no shot list other than the groupings for formal portraits. The photographs came in while we were on our honeymoon and we were blown away by the gallery. Everything was beautifully photographed, edited, and curated. On the wedding day my husband and I were excited for our first look partially because we got to see each other, but also because it was a hang sesh with Marilyn. She is just a wonderful person who puts you at ease whenever you chat with her. Many guests complimented her work style in which she wasn’t intrusive during the ceremony, but was constantly snapping both candid and posed photos. We didn’t want our wedding to feel merely like a spectacle –we wanted it to be a gathering of all our loved ones, so Marilyn’s candid style was a perfect match for us.

Marilyn was such a pleasure to work with. It is so obvious how incredibly talented she is, yet she still totally blew us away.
From the start, the way she kept in touch with us along the way with planning, the conversations she led about style and important pictures all helped us feel totally confident and non-stressed about this part of the planning.
On the day of she was such a calming force, omnipresent and intuitive to the kinds of things we were trying to do. From the ratios of shot kinds, the mix of guest photos where everyone had pics without an over emphasis on any one group… she was truly fantastic and wonderful and amazing.
We are so grateful for her presence and work around our special day. The pictures came out so beautifully, came so quickly and have been getting nonstop compliments from family and friends. We will treasure these forever.

This past October my partner and I worked with Marilyn for our wedding at Jack’s Barn in Oxford, NJ, and loved every second! We also had Marilyn shoot our engagement photos a year prior and had a great experience! Marilyn is such a kind, fun, and welcoming presence! Her communication and process was so warm and professional - she even sent a lovely gift with printed materials, and treats! Working with Marilyn the day of our wedding was so great and we never once had any worries. We absolutely adore our final photos! They have such range in look, posing, vibes, colors, all while being true to Marilyn’s talent and eye. We’d recommend anyone to hire her for their wedding, or any special event or moment!

Where to even start? Marilyn is the sweetest human being! She radiates warmth and kindness and makes, what could be a stressful experience, delightful and easy. Which is exactly the energy you want on your wedding day. She is incredibly professional, responsive, and friendly. We had to cancel our wedding and reschedule at the very last minute and reschedule and she was completely flexible and actually sent us a care package to cheer us up!!! Like, are you kidding?!?

And at the wedding itself she was so fun, when I noticed her, but most of the time she was floating around taking gorgeous photos and just blending in with the party. During and after the wedding my guests praised her friendliness and professionalism. And on top of all that, she's a true artist who seems to really love her craft and that love comes through in the photos. She just has a special secret sauce. Hire this woman! 10/10 would recommend! It was an absolute pleasure working with her.

Marilyn was an incredible photographer! The pictures were absolutely flawless. We were a little nervous about how to look natural during our engagement photos and the long day of photographing on wedding day, but Marilyn made both a breeze! The pictures were absolutely stunning and she did an amazing job capturing all of our most important moments. We are so fortunate that we had Marilyn, the wedding was captured so perfectly.

It's hard to put into words how amazing it was to work with Marilyn for our wedding day. From our first interaction with her, she was energetic, friendly and professional. Throughout the entire process, Marilyn was responsive and went above and beyond to be helpful. It's easy to get caught up in the stress of wedding planning, but every time we spoke with Marilyn, she brought such a lovely positive attitude! On our wedding day, Marilyn came up with so many creative ideas for our photos and most importantly, she made us feel relaxed and comfortable. We had so much fun with her and we could not be more thrilled with how our photos turned out. Marilyn is not only an incredibly talented artist, but also a truly wonderful person. When our dog, who was supposed to be part of our wedding, died unexpectedly, Marilyn sent us a thoughtful sympathy package. We would recommend her to anyone and hope we have a chance to work with her again!

Marilyn was the absolute best to work with. She is so sweet, genuine and incredibly talented. It was so fun working with her and she did an amazing job capturing our wedding photos!! The tones, the editing, the direction that she gave us..Our shots are so beautiful, we can't stop looking at them!

We can't say anything but great things about Marilyn. My husband and I first saw her page on Wedding Wire early 2019 and immediately fell in love with the quality and look of her photos. She truly has a knack for capturing special moments that take us right back to our special day.

Not only was she incredibly easy to work with, we were blown away by her professionalism and her love for what she does. We unfortunately had our original wedding derailed by Covid-19 and Marilyn has stuck with us through it all - checking in on us, asking us about alternate plans, and even brainstorming new ideas. We felt like she really had our back.

On the day of, Marilyn had every detail taken care of and was extremely organized. She made us feel so comfortable and helped guide us through the best poses for photos, which is exactly what we needed on that day. The quality of her photos and the speed at which we received them blew us away and we are so thankful that we have these memories to cherish forever.

We can't wait to hire Marilyn again for special occasions and can't recommend her enough to our friends and family.
