Mary and her work were exactly what we hoped for our wedding and our photography. Leading up to the wedding, she took time to get to know us through our initial call and was so responsive over e-mail and text.

Her professional, sweet and calm demeanor translated to both our engagement photo session and wedding day. We are two people that don’t feel particularly comfortable in front of the camera, and she made sure that we knew that was ok and worked with us to open up and feel at ease. Additionally, there were some tense family dynamics at our wedding, and she made sure not only to understand those dynamics but also to keep us + all our family members at ease. We also appreciated how she worked within our timeline and made sure to capture the moments and group shots we requested. She even stayed for extra time because the energy was so high on the dance floor.

And her photos – the shots, the editing, and the turnaround – they are so beautiful, and we couldn’t be happier with them. We knew we picked the right photographer because she works with the light so nicely. Going through them after the wedding, was like reliving the whole day, noticing moments that slipped passed us. We, unfortunately, weren’t able to afford a videographer but looking at all our photos and everything Mary captured, it doesn’t really matter. Thank you, Mary!

Not only was Mary so easy to work with and she made our day so much better just with her confidence and expertise, but also the photos she delivered to us were absolutely wonderful! We can't get over how beautiful they turned out and how much of the day and our joy she captured! It will be an impossible task to narrow it down to just a few to print and put around the house! Seeing the love and joy on our guests' faces and then also seeing the joy in our own eyes in each photo made our experience just that much better! We will be forever grateful to Mary and her talent! Also, we are so grateful to Mary for sticking with us throughout the craziness of the past two years. She was one of the first vendors we found and we are SO thankful that she was still available and willing to work with us after our postponement. I will say it over and over, having Mary capture our wedding day was one of the best choices we made throughout our wedding planning process!

We found Mary through our wedding venue. She had actually taken the photos for the wedding that made us fall in love with the venue. We ended up picking her because we thought she did the best at capturing raw emotions of not only the couples but also the guests at the wedding. Mary and her assistant, Amelia, were such joys to work with on our wedding day. They were very professional and made me and my husband feel so comfortable. We could not be happier with the photos of our wedding. Mary recommended doing our first look in Rocky Mountain NP, which turned out absolutely beautiful. The photos are breathtaking and truly capture the joy we felt on our special day. She also captured some amazing moments of friends and family that we will cherish for years! If you are thinking about booking Mary, DO IT! We could not recommend her more. Thank you Mary for everything!

Mary helped make our special day even better. We were nervous going into it because we had never had professional photography done before. Mary made us feel super comfortable and really helped us to relax and allow our true selves to be captured

Mary helped me pick, plan, and make happen the most amazing elopement. We knew having a big wedding wasn't for us and even though our family wasn't there on the day through her photos we have been able to visually share our whole day. She helped me pick a place that met all my needs, I was pregnant, wanted to bring my dog, and it was also important to me to get eloped somewhere I have never been to make a new memory. The sunrise ceremony was perfection and the hike was perfect for a 6 month adventurous pregnant woman to do. I can confidently day I have the BEST wedding photos of all time. It was been so special sharing them with our families and friends, cant wait to share the moment with our son, I hope it teaches him its ok to be spontaneous and go out to do something different that expresses who you are, or in this case who we are as a couple. All these memories and moment wouldn't have been possible without Mary.

I can't say enough wonderful things about Mary. She was not only a joy to work with, but gave us the most beautiful collection of photos from our wedding day and engagement shoot.

Prior to the wedding, Mary was open and available to talking through our vision - we were looking for candid, natural photos that captured the moment, and Mary not only delivered, but she managed to capture the love and essence of the wide range of relationships with our guests. She was sensitive to our unique blend of families and made everyone comfortable (which made for amazing photos - everyone wanted to be friends with Mary by the end of the evening!!). She got all angles, every grouping of friends and family we asked for, and got candid, dynamic shots that captured the joy and color and movement of our wedding.

I cannot recommend Mary highly enough!!!!!

Due to COVID-19, we pivoted from a wedding with our families and friends to an intimate elopement in the Eastern Sierras. Mary guided us every step of the way, from our initial introduction call when she gave us some fun elopement ideas, to checking in and sending us tips as we got closer to the day. She also gave me an incredible vendor recommendation for virtual makeup lessons (shoutout to Beyond the Literal!) so I was confident applying my own makeup the morning of.

My husband and I had a lofty elopement plan – to wake up at sunrise, get married, and go fly fishing in Bishop Creek. It probably wouldn’t have been so bad except it was November in the mountains and below freezing! Mary was there for it and didn’t flinch when I said we wanted to meet at 6am! She was flexible and supportive when my husband forgot our rings at the hotel, making what could have been a disappointing stressful situation all ok.

Neither of us have spent much time in front of a camera lens, but Mary made us look comfortable and like ourselves. I think a big part of that is the calm, easy going energy she brings. These photos are treasures to our friends and family who couldn’t be there in person, and I’m so glad we chose Mary to create them for us. I wholeheartedly recommend Mary Meck for adventure elopements and weddings!

Needless to say, Mary has an impeccable eye for light, proportion and scenery. I was beyond thrilled with her final work, not to mention her calm and easy demeanor which made the wedding and photographing that much better. She made my husband and I feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the whole process. And it shows in the photos. I highly HIGHLY recommend Mary!

We found Mary on our wedding venue’s Instagram! We booked her for our 2020 wedding which was then postponed, and she has been super flexible and understanding with our date change. We decided to take a trip to RMNP for an adventure anyway in the fall, and Mary had the best ideas of where/when to hike for the most epic pictures!! Literally every place we stopped to pose along the way was extremely epic! We are awkward as a couple and it was really cold, but Mary was encouraging, and our photos are everything we could have dreamed of! When I look at our gallery wall, I feel the love we share.... in the most beautiful place I could imagine! Thank you Mary! And I can’t wait until we get you again on our big day!

Like many other 2020 weddings our plans were thrown for a loop and we ended up picking a different date and changed our original party. Mary was the one vendor we kept throughout the process and I couldn’t have been more happy with our choice to have her as our photographer. She was so flexible in our ever changing plans, offered great recommendations for our less traditional ceremony, and was super communicative.

Above all else our photos turned out stunning and she really captured the magic of the day. I couldn’t recommend Mary more!
