The Best In Photography

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Marsha of The Photege multiple times, and every time, her work is simply beautiful. Her eye for detail and the way she captures moments is truly something special.

Marsha is not only incredibly talented and experienced, but she’s also such a joy to work with. She’s professional, brings great energy, and you can genuinely tell she loves what she does. My team and I always feel lucky when we get to work alongside her

The Absolute BEST!

I've had the pleasure of knowing Marsha for the past two years and over those past two years, she has photographed my graduation photos, engagement photos, and most recently my wedding! I can't recommend her enough. Her work is absolutely stunning! Marsha goes above and beyond to make sure her client's voices are heard and visions come true. She was extremely helpful during my wedding planning process and always assisted where assistance was needed. After our wedding, our bridal party told us how much fun they had taking pictures and we have Marsha to thank for that. I HIGHLY recommend her and will be using her for all my future photography needs!

Absolutely amazing!

First off, I am a year late. But better late than never! Marsha was absolutely amazing, she made our wedding day and the process leading up to our wedding day go by so smooth. She was always patient and willing to lend a helping hand. Despite my many questions she never made me feel like a nuisance. My entire family completely adores her! She went above and beyond to make sure our big day was special. She was also our maternity photographer, family pics are next on the list! I still came back to leave a review an entire year later, so that must mean something! If you are looking for an amazing, thoughtful, and patient photographer…look no further! She is worth EVERY penny she charges and MORE! Thank you Marsha, you are the absolute best!

The absolute BEST 🤍

Marsha did our engagement photos and our wedding, she truly does shoot with her heart. I am beyond grateful for her, her work and the passion she has for photography. She went above and beyond what I could have ever imagined for our engagement and wedding photos. She made us feel like we were the only couple she had for the year, and was there for me when I asked any questions, even if it was non-photo related. She has so much knowledge and creativity, sessions with Marsha are an absolute dream. One of my top priorities for our wedding was an amazing photographer, and we chose the perfect one! I recommend her to all my family and friends and will for sure be using her for family photos in the future

The BEST photographer to capture your moments!

As you may know, 2020 has been a rollercoaster of a year. However, Marsha has stuck with Mike and I the entire way through postponements, cancellations, and an eventual elopement. Through this entire process, Marsha has become a dear friend. She exudes positivity, compassion, and understanding. She beautifully captured our elopement ceremony at Yosemite National Park, and we will be forever grateful for the memories she captured. Her talent for photography is incredible and unmatched. She sees the beauty in moments, and I'm always amazed at how she perfectly captures the emotions through a photo. I would highly recommend Marsha for any type of photography session. She has become our photographer for life. Thank you, Marsha for everything! Mike and I are so thankful for you!

What wedding dreams are made of!!

Marsha has given us the BEST wedding gift we could ever receive. She has given us the most gorgeous images that we will have for a lifetime. We cannot express our gratitude enough for the joy and happiness these images bring us! Marsha was so much more than a photographer to us! I knew from day one that she was IT !! From our very first conversation I could feel her warmth and genuine kindness shining through even the phone. We've had the pleasure of working with her for our engagement session, family & pups session, and now our wedding. Each time she has shown up with her professionalism and knowledge on how to get the most amazing shots. But her warmth and calm demeanor are what made us so comfortable and able to relax enough in our sessions! She has walked through every step of our wedding journey with us. Being a COVID bride had its heartbreaks. Marsha was there for every moment, always offering her encouragement and a positive spin on the situation. Her professional reputation, provides her with invaluable connections in the industry. She helped me book several more of my vendors. We are genuinely sad that our wedding journey with Marsha is over. But she has definitely become our lifetime photographer, because we just cannot say goodbye!! PLEASE look no further for your wedding photographer. Booking Marsha will be the best decision you ever make!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
