    Our New Go-To Photographer!

    Our mini photo shoot with Carly was fantastic! She is professional, fun, and her joyful personality kept us smiling the entire time. The session was effortless and not at all awkward. She picked a great location and perfect timing to catch the golden hour beautifully.

    Carly edited the photos incredibly fast and sent them to us the next day! Because of her quick turnaround, I was able to order our Christmas cards right away and take advantage of a coupon I had. I love her editing style—I don't know how she does it, but the photos feel modern and vintage at the same time.

    At the beginning of the shoot, she asked if we had a "good side," which was such a thoughtful touch! We booked the mini shoot using her Black Friday BOGO from last year (it was our first time working with her), and we loved it so much that we already bought another mini shoot using this year's BOGO for our 2026 Christmas photos. We'll never look for another photographer again!

    Amazing proposal shoot

    Carly was absolutely amazing. She captured the moment perfectly and we have not been able to stop looking at the pictures to relive every moment. The pictures could not have come out any better. 10 outta 5 stars!!!

    My favorite photographer! And I know many.

    As a wedding professional myself, I’ve worked with sooo many photographers over the years and Carly is absolutely one of the most talented in the biz! I’ve worked with her several times for both professional shoots and personal shoots and every single time, her galleries just blow me away. My most recent session with Carly was for mommy and me photos with my son and I was moved to tears when I received the gallery back. She has such a talent for capturing special moments, raw emotions, and personality within her photos. She is AMAZING at conducting her shoots - from helping you fix that rogue piece of hair before she snaps the next picture to getting a 4 year old energetic boy to smile, stay focused, and have fun throughout the shoot - and her turnaround time for editing and delivering the gallery is quicker than most. I cannot say enough amazing things about this photographer and I guarantee you, hiring her for whatever special moment you want to savor forever will be the best decision you can make. :)

    Phenomenal Experience

    I hired Carly to do a photoshoot for the bridesmaids of my best friend's wedding during our bachelorette party in Nashville. It was a little bit of an unconventional group photoshoot, but she did an amazing job. She was very responsive every time we spoke and very clear with all her directions. Once we met, she instantly made all the girls very comfortable with the camera. Carly was so very positive and complimentary which made our smiles very genuine. She came with a bunch of great ideas and locations for posing but was also open to our suggestions and helped recreate some past poses with ease. Her turn around in getting the photos back to us was very impressive and we were all able to see the photos before we departed at the end of the weekend. I would absolutely work with Carly again in the future and high recommend hiring her.

    If I could give 100 stars I would!!

    This team is AMAZING. They are both so kind and funny on top of being so professional and great at their job.
    My Fiancé and I are terribly awkward in front of a camera, but with the help of their directions and eye for perfect photo opportunities, our engagement pictures are jaw dropping. I cannot express enough how good they are. They are also so honest and genuinely care about the people and moments they capture. Which calms your nerves and delivers a perfect outcome. I recommend them to everyone I know!!!

    Fantastic!

    Carly was so much fun to work with! My husband, my kids, and I enjoyed her energetic personality and loved having fun while getting pictures taken. She really knew the best places to get the best pictures. I don't think we could have gotten better pictures anywhere else. So very very happy we found Carly!

    Best Photographer in Nashville!

    Carly and her team are so AMAZING! They made our entire wedding. The photos that we received after the wedding were beyond what I was excepting!
    If we ever had any questions, Carly was there to answer them all, even the "dumb" ones! She was so professional and did such a great job keeping things on track. She doesn't force you to do anything that you are not comfortable with doing.
    I would DEFINITELY recommend her to family, friends or just anyone that was asking about a wonderful photographer! You won't be disappointed by her!

    Carly was amazing!

    Carly was great! She even met up with us in advance for a mini session to get to know us. She is very professional. You know you will be getting exactly what she has promised. She is very receptive to feedback and we would recommend Carly and her team to anyone wanting exceptional quality photos for a price that can't be matched!

    I have used Carly for so many special events that I’ve lost count. From my daughter’s 2-year pictures, to mommy-and-me/maternity, fall family and summer sunflowers with Grandparents two years in a row. I will continue to use Carly as she is extremely genuine and a joy to work with.

    Carly Marmen Photography recently did family photos for us and we couldn’t be happier! She was a joy to work with and great with our toddler too! I love what she captured of us in just a short session, and looking forward to having her do more photos for us next month!! I would recommend her to anyone I know looking to have photos done.

    Carly made me more excited for my wedding & I didn’t think that was possible! She made me & John feel so comfortable in front of the camera & captured our perfect love to a tee! She got our pictures back to us so quickly! We were honestly amazed that she got them all edited in under a week! Her pricing was so reasonable, too! But most importantly, she was so fun to hang out with! She kept us laughing for almost two hours & we truly left feeling like she was one of our closest friends! I will recommend her to any & everyone until the day I die!!

    Carly is an absolute joy to work with! Our engagement pictures exceeded my expectations for sure. I looked at her work and new she was good, but when I got my pictures back I realized she is amazing at what she does. She captured the laughter between me and my fiancé.

    Carly was our first choice for my daughter's senior portraits. She was super easy to work with and we received beautiful photographs that captured my daughter's hobbies, passions, and personality. We had a few ideas for some specific shots we wanted; Carly not only met, but exceeded our expectations. She has a keen eye for what works and I would not hesitate to use her again.

    I was very picky in choosing the right photographer for my engagement and wedding photos, and I could not be happier with my choice with Carly! She does amazing work. The photos are stunningly beautiful, her prices are fair, and she is very professional. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to have beautiful photo memories made for years to come!

    Carly and her assistant were SO incredibly helpful during our wedding!! We have a very large family and she made everything a breeze. I am not a huge fan of having my picture taken but I felt relaxed and comfortable throughout the photo taking process! Carly is such a sweet person and she made everythinf so easy while still capturing every detail of our special day. Our pictures turned out amazing!!!

    Worth the Wait

    Carly and her assistant put my mind at ease that every detail of my wedding would be captured. All I had to do was enjoy the day! She even got pictures of my dress hanging up that I didn’t know about until we received our photos.
    We enjoyed returning to the location where we had our engagement shoot and recreating some of those pictures, now as husband and wife.
    Her use of black and white emphasized important moments like our vows, which really captured the feelings of the day. I feel like she got to know us and our wedding party, and all of our personalities were highlighted. I especially love how our lightsaber send-off turned out.
    We received our edits 13 weeks after our Oct 27 wedding.
    I’m extremely happy with our photos! I don’t know how I’ll pick favorites to order.
