The best wedding decision we made!

One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was hiring Morgan as our photographer. She was SO much more than just a photographer! Morgan helped ease my anxiety by creating a realistic timeline and because of this, the day was so stress-free and laid back. On the day of the wedding, Morgan had this contagious energy to her that was SO fun and you could't help but smile! She was organized and so on top of things, and she continuously checked in on us the entire day. Not once was I stressed on my wedding day, and this was largely due to Morgan! She vibed with our whole wedding party and even got down on the dance floor with us. Book Morgan as your wedding photographer, you will not regret it!!

Simply the best

Morgan is such an amazing photographer. She helps create a timeline that best fits your needs and to be sure she can capture all the moments you want. She does her very best to get all of the details and photographs you need/want on the wedding day! She was great at checking in on me to be sure everything was going well and to see what I needed. She is easy to talk to and is sure to help the timeline stay on track and does not let you worry. She was always helping with poses while keeping everyone feeling natural all at the same time. Even when you do not know how to pose or what to do she is sure to make you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. She was able to learn names and faces quickly. She is very fun, energetic, and easy to get along with. She was part of the party all while capturing the most wonderful pictures you could imagine!! Guests were asking if she could travel to capture their wedding and raving about how she was always there to get all of the little moments. So, if you get the opportunity to work with Morgan you will agree the she is simply THE BEST photographer around!!!! :) Thank you Morgan! Pics are only just the sneak peek!!

Look no further you found perfection!

I recently had the pleasure of working alongside Morgan and her team at Matcha Lorene Photography as a wedding coordinator, and I can't speak highly enough of her professionalism and dedication. The couple requested a documentary and candid approach, and Morgan went above and beyond to capture every genuine smile and heartfelt moment. Her positive energy and loving spirit set the perfect tone for the day, creating a comfortable environment that allowed her to capture those real, joyful memories seamlessly. From a professional standpoint, Morgan was organized, communicative, and an absolute joy to collaborate with. I’m genuinely excited at the prospect of working with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a photographer who combines talent with a truly positive presence!

Greatest decision of my life going with Morgan :)

Let me start off by saying that I wish there was an opportunity for more stars because 5 stars does not do her justice. I could not have gotten a better wedding photographer! I have known morgan since she worked at starbucks and watched her photography grow into what it is today. At first I had a different photographer in mind but I am SO HAPPY that I ended up booking with morgan. She offered help every. single. step. of the way! She puts so much thought into to each and every couple. She has a way of making people feel beautiful just by talking with them! From the second I booked with her she lifted a weight off my shoulders because I knew that I could trust her to capture what was in my head. She kept our schedule on track which helped keep my stress down during the big day and we spent the whole day laughing and having a good time. What impressed us the most was how she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. The posed shots were natural and fun, and we received countless compliments from our guests about how wonderful our photographer was.
BOOK with her you wont regret it!

Amazing Photographer

Morgan was an incredible photographer for our wedding! She has a natural way of making everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera while still ensuring everything ran smoothly and on time. We were especially impressed by how she remembered the names of all our guests for the photos—it made everything feel so personal. The sneak peek photos were amazing, and my husband couldn't stop talking about how much he loved her energy throughout the day. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who brings both professionalism and fun to the table!

The most amazing photographer, all around!

There are not enough words in the world to describe how amazing Morgan is!! Morgan provides excellent quality photography and helps throughout the entire journey of wedding planning! She created a seamless timeline, provided her knowledgeable feedback of what works and doesn’t work when creating a timeline. Morgan was amazing at identifying family members and wedding party members who she had never met before and making everyone feel comfortable. She returned the most stunning photos from our wedding in her sneak peek album THE SAME NIGHT!!! If you take anything from this post, HIRE HER, you will not regret it!

Morgan is simply the Bomb.com

Where should I start ?

Morgan has made me feel comfortable with my choice in photographer since day 1.
If I’m being honest , I didn’t even shop around. I had followed her on Instagram for some time prior to my wedding & seeing her personality and how she portrays herself made me instantly know that when the time came she was the girl for me!

We can laugh together , be silly together , & she genuinely cares about how it is YOU are doing.

She gets to know you & your partner as a unit and your personalities so that she can capture that in your photos.

The day of she managed to not only capture every little detail but also take care of us ! The day was sooooo F’n hot !!! & this girl did not crack under pressure . She made sure we were taken care of with food , waters , breaks. She makes sure you are okay every step of the way.

She left the wedding at 8-8:30 .
Drove 2 hours home , && got me sneak peaks at 1:30 am that SAME night !! Are you kidding me ! Xoxo
& let me tell you those sneak peaks had everyone in tears . If I’m this in love already I can’t wait to see the rest.

My family was so in love with her ! Omg they couldnt rave enough about her ! Her personality, her creativity, her spunk & character!

Morgan seriously ! You are the Bomb.com !

She knew exactly what I didn’t want , & knew exactly what I did && DELIVERED !!!

The best photographer is here

To know Morgan is to love Morgan! When I met Morgan a year ago, I was instantly captivated by her personality and love for what she does. I accompanied my friend to a photoshoot and when Morgan’s next client canceled, Morgan made me jump behind the camera and made me feel so comfortable and beautiful. Fast forward to the fall and I booked Morgan to take pictures of my then fiance and I for some fall minis. I fell in love with our photos and Morgan (all over again). When I got engaged at the end of 2023, there was no doubt in mine or my husband’s mind on who we would hire to be our photographer. We were only choosing a wedding date that Morgan was available. It was Morgan or no one! From the early planning stages of our wedding, Morgan was there every step of the way to make things seamless, easy, and fit into place. Morgan built an amazing timeline with me and made my Type A self feel at pace moving forward. Anytime I had a question in the wedding planning process, Morgan was there to help support me which meant the world to me. Come to the wedding day, Morgan walked into the room and instantly knew everyone. Morgan has this amazing sense to make you feel like you are her best friend even though you met her 5 seconds ago. She doesn’t view anyone as a client- rather a friend. She lets you know that she cares about you and your day, just as much as you do. She took the most creative, loving, and fun photos. She remembered small details that I didn’t even remember myself. She made sure to capture everything that I wanted and more. She was adaptable to every situation and when I threw something new at her, she replied with “Okay, yeah! Let’s do it!” She remembered who family members were and could name the whole bridal party after 5 seconds of meeting them. This helped when some people weren’t comfortable behind the camera, because she knew their name and eased their worries. She makes you almost WANT to be behind the camera at all times. When all the photos came to an end, Morgan was on the dance floor dancing the night away with us and we wouldn’t have had it any other way. I woke up the next morning to a message from her with our wedding picture preview. Yes, you heard that right. THE NEXT MORNING. Now, I know this probably isn’t always the case, but Morgan has no idea how much this meant to us. Coming down from your wedding high and hitting the wedding blues is so sad. But, having these pictures to look back on while we wait for our album, meant more to me than anything else. Morgan is so talented and I can’t even put into words how amazed I am at her work, her creativity, her personality, and her ability to light up a room and a dance floor! Thank you Morgan, for making our day even more special than I could have imagined. Justin and I love you!
