About

I specialize in heirloom-worthy wedding photography for couples like you. You want beautiful, authentic photographs of your relationship (who doesn’t?!). But mostly, you want the memories of your wedding day to last as long as possible. Sentimental? Probably. But the thought of passing down the story of your romance to generations brings you joy.

"YOU’RE DEEPLY IN LOVE, A BIT SENTIMENTAL, & LOOKING FOR A PHOTOGRAPHER WHO’LL CAPTURE YOUR WEDDING DAY IN A WAY THAT FEELS LESS POSED AND MORE “I FEEL LIKE I’M RELIVING IT ALL OVER AGAIN.”

Trust me, I understand. One second you’re filled with butterflies as you walk down the aisle, and the next you’re holding a baby that too quickly becomes a twelve year old (speaking from experience).

Tale as old as time...time moves quickly. At least, that’s what I’ve learned as I’ve flipped through the HUNDREDS of photo albums my grandparents left behind. In between those faded pages are legacies brought to life. Babies that became adults that got married and built a home together.

And those albums? They’ve taught me that photography is the best, most beautiful way to pass down a story. Time moves quickly, but there’s so much goodness to preserve along the way and that’s why I’m a photographer.

Expressive, natural, & undeniably timeless. I’ve cultivated a photography style that will infuse you with confidence, capture your unique relationship, and leave you with only fond memories and dreamy photographs. Click the link to my blog for a peek of my recent work.

Simply the BEST

Monica is the BEST! She photographed my sister in law and cousin in law's wedding so we knew her work was fantastic. She did our "Save The Date" pictures and our wedding. She is so fun to work with- our dogs REALLY loved her! She made my husband and I feel so relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. (She also kept me super chill on my wedding day- just directed me where to go and told people to get in pictures, etc.) She is also good at photographing you from your best angle and will pose you appropriately (no double chins in any pictures)! The light she is able to capture in photos is truly stunning. I am truly just blown away by her talent and how great our photos are. You can tell she truly loves what she does! Thank you so so much, Monica! Her assistant Pricilla was also incredible!!

More Than A Wedding Photographer!

I have nothing but kinds words for Monica Roberts Photography!!! She not only is a wonderful person to work with, but she goes above and beyond in many ways. Her images speak for themselves in terms of her talent. She obviously takes the time to review each photo to ensure that you receive the best quality photos possible. If “light & airy” is the style you’re searching for, she’s your girl! Also, her pricing and the number of photos you receive for each session is MORE than fair compared to many others. Our photos turned out absolutely STUNNING!!! She was always easily available to communicate via phone or email. She was also willing to travel to varying locations for our engagement photos and my bridal portraits. In addition, she stepped up when I needed her most. I planned my wedding during COVID, and she was with me every step of the way. She helped me figure out rescheduling, and even offered to speak to my venue directly for me whenever I was having issues with rescheduling my wedding to a later date. As you can imagine, I was frantic and stressed during this time and she did everything she could to keep me calm. The way she conducted herself throughout our entire experience was exceptional. When you trust her with capturing your special day, she becomes MORE than a wedding photographer. She becomes a vital part of your team and helps ensure the entire wedding process is an enjoyable experience for you and your spouse. We loved sharing these moments with Monica and strongly recommend her for ANY kind of photography needs.

Monica is the BEST!

Monica was such a special part of this wedding journey. She is not only a wonderful photographer, but a wonderful person. It was truly a joy to get to work with her. She made my husband and I feel at ease during all of the sessions. We were so overjoyed when we received the wedding gallery, and we are so excited to put her work of art in various places in our home. It has been so special getting to relive our special day through her work. She captured the tender moments and joy of our wedding perfectly! I highly recommend you work with Monica, as it will quickly become one of the best parts of the wedding journey. You will not be disappointed!!

Monica is the best!

Monica was one of the best people to work with! Not only are her photos fabulous, but she was also so helpful and supportive and positive throughout the rescheduling process. She walked us through our wedding timeline, had great advice for the day of the wedding, and even kept an eye on how our actual wedding was flowing. These photos are something we will cherish forever and she made our wedding feel truly special. We were so thankful to have her and honestly cannot recommend her enough!

She is fabulous!

I cannot say enough positive things about our experience. She made what could have been a stressful day full of pictures so easy! We had no idea what we were doing on our own and she came up with the best ideas. She is so personable, which made us completely comfortable posing. She’s punctual and the turn around time of getting our pictures back has been so fast. Seriously, she’s the best. I highly recommend.

Monica is THE best!

Monica was such a pleasure to work with! I heard about her from another couple that she worked with and after seeing her photos, I immediately knew that I wanted to book her for my wedding. She is so easy to work with, professional, very experienced, funny, friendly and was always in communication with me leading up to my wedding. Monica also photographed my engagement and bridal photos, all of which turned out amazing! She is also very quick with getting photos back to you!

On our wedding day, Monica had an organized timeline and list of poses that we wanted and she made sure all of them were captured! Monica was on top of everything and worked well with all my other vendors. We LOVED our wedding gallery!

When anyone I know is looking for a photographer, I always highly recommend her! If you have an opportunity to book her, don't think twice and do it. You will not be disappointed and will have beautiful photos to look back on for years to come.

Incredible!!!

From the moment my husband and I met Monica we instantly fell I love with her vision, work and personality. I was always told to find a photographer you’re comfortable with because when your comfortable you can be your true self. For our engagement pictures it was a gloomy, foggy morning however by looking at our pictures you wouldn’t even know there was fog. They were spectacular!! My bridal pics has gusts of what it felt like 20 mph winds and my photos were stunning!!! For our wedding day Monica capture the most member moments of our life. She even hiked up hills to get the perfect shot. I will forever be a life time customer and 100% recommend her to my friends, family and anyone who asks me for my recommendation!

Best Photographer Ever!

Monica was an absolute gem and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! I was really nervous about being in front of a camera and felt like it would have come across really awkward, but Monica's bubbly personality and encouraging directions helped me feel confident throughout! Seriously the best experience ever - it's like having your best friend with you on your big day!

A True Artistic Event Photographer

Where to start when there are so many things to gush about? Monica is simply the best in the business. Our wedding was a bit hectic since it had rained all morning. Monica took control a lot of the time and stepped in organizing vendors (who worked closely with the wedding party) when there was no direction from the wedding coordinators assistant. She in no way should have been put into that situation, however, she took control to give us the wedding images and day we dreamed of. I only highlight this because it's not usual. She stepped up and excelled. Our wedding images look so artistic and portray us calm even if we weren't at the time. Her second photographer was so incredible as well! The booking and payment process was a breeze! This is the team you want when you're trusting vendors to execute your dream wedding. We honestly can't say enough good things about her team.

I will forever treasure these images. Thank you Monica!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
