So glad we have these photos

Mariah did our engagement photos and wedding photos. We felt so comfortable in front of her camera (and I'm camera shy!!). Incredibly talented and professional. Highly recommend.

Couldn't be happier

We decided to change photographers halfway through our wedding planning and decided to go with Mariah. It was one of the best decisions we made. Leading up to the wedding, Mariah helped my clueless self to make a timeline and logistics for the photos before and after the wedding and was impressively quick to respond. She helped to make everything run smoothly on the day of and was flexible with the schedule when I was ready too and getting antsy. Her and her 2nd photographer were so nice and went above and beyond to get great shots. Throughout the whole day - from getting ready to the end of the reception - they were constantly clicking away, but they were never annoying or in the way. They caught so many shots that truly captured our personalities and silliness. The icing on the cake was how enthusiastic they were to have a photoshoot with my dog :)

So anazing!

We met Mariah at a Bridal Expo in Indy. Being newer to the area and not knowing anyone, my now husband and I were leery about choosing the perfect photographer. We wanted someone who would do an excellent job, was reasonably priced, but most importantly, who made it easy and enjoyable. We found all of that with Mariah. We were impressed with her work and her keen eye. She made the engagement session fun and the wedding photos flowed so easy with her. She became a friend to us. If we could go back and do it all again, we would choose Mariah again and again, hands down! We highly recommend Mariah for all your photography needs!

Amazing! Talented! Experienced!

Mariah was great to work with! She made a picture schedule and we adjusted as the day went on. She has a great eye for picking backgrounds and how to make every picture beautiful. Would work with her again!

In all aspects of work, Mariah is not satisfied unless achieving the highest standards. Works relentlessly to improve skills and knowledge, and the quality of work output. A pleasant, outgoing personality who always gets on well with others. Mariah has outstanding artistic skills, bringing creativity and originality to the task. Always succeeds in explaining ideas clearly. Others find Mariah easy to understand. She also has the ability to listen carefully to what others are saying, to understand and then to respond appropriately. Conversations with Mariah are two-way.

She will always willingly and successfully try to do what is required, even if it means performing tasks that are not in the job description or if required to do extra work unexpectedly. Polite, courteous, respectful and charming at all times and in all situations, without being obsequious. Unfailingly courteous even when dealing with a difficult person or situation. Regularly produces creative, original ideas or plans well-attuned to the needs and capabilities of the organization, and producing clear benefits. Always eager to take on a new task, whether hard or simple, and tackles it diligently, without question or complaint. This positive attitude inspires others too.

Mariah is a wonderful, kind, and overall fantastic person! She has a passion for photography like no other and will do everything and anything to get the best shots for any event! She took photos of my hectic family and they came out perfect :) She does well with whatever requests are made, makes sure you have lots of options, and all at a great quality with care. I was also surprised, as many reviews have said, by how fast we got out photos back; it truly shows her dedication to each client's wants. Thank you again, Mariah!
