    Amazing Photographer

    Maggie and Patrick are a fantastic pair and we would highly recommend them for any event. Maggie was excellent in helping us plan the day of our wedding (and even took it upon herself to help make some small changes to the rehearsal space that we LOVED!!) Their work in both the engagement shoot and day of wedding photography is top notch. You can tell they love what they do and are very knowledgeable. They want to capture YOU in the best possible way and it shows with every pose and scene they put us in. We absolutely love the quality of their photos and their skills are shown directly through all of those photos. We would recommend Living Radiant Photography over and over again

    They know this field and are insanely good!

    We hired Maggie and Patrick after getting some recommendations and looking at their work. This was arguably one of the best hires we made. After talking with Maggie once, you knew she was invested in our wedding and wanted it to be the best night ever. We spoke with them multiple times and they were available if we had any questions throughout the process. The day of the wedding they showed up and had one of the best plans in place where it didn't matter the location (one which they hadn't shot at before), the weather (it was raining as the groom showed up but cleared up later), and got every shot that we asked for (and some we didn't). 100% would recommend and would hire them again if we needed any other photography services.

    The Perfect Choice!

    Maggie and Patrick delivered the most incredible engagement and wedding photographs and overall experience. They really take the time to get to know you so you feel comfortable for your wedding day. This was huge for us, since we aren't much of a photo-taking couple and aren't exactly comfortable in front of the camera. We were Maggie's first wedding back after her maternity leave of only a month, and you would have never guessed it. She and Patrick brought so much awesome energy and would do anything (to include holding a suitcase in the air to block the direct sunlight) to capture the perfect photo. We couldn't imagine anyone else capturing our big day and solidifying these precious memories for a lifetime.

    So pleased with Living Radiant

    The Living Radiant team did a phenomenal job capturing our special day. They have such an eye for lighting and space. These pictures are radiant, not over edited, and capture the personality of us and our guests so well. So many friends and family have complemented our choice of photographer. They did a terrific job highlighting the beauty of our venues (Cathedral of Mary Our Queen and Evergreen Museum and Library carriage house). They were also very easy to work with, reliable, and brought a great energy to our day. Would 100% recommend them!!

    10/10, the absolute best

    I don’t even know how to begin to thank the Nolan’s. Patrick was the MVP on the day of our wedding. He gracefully went with the flow, with a small but demanding crowd. He captured every detail, and more. And he was an absolute pleasure to work with on our perfect day. For a few days after the wedding, my family was non stop talking about the wedding- but mostly, Patrick! We were blown away by his work and professionalism.

    We are ecstatic with the way our photos turned out - crying all over again as we re-lived one of our best days ever. We had a long shot list and several more added that day, and we truly are so grateful for such incredible work. I don’t think we will ever stop smiling looking at them. I would recommend Living Radient a thousand times. 10/10, they were the best.

    Hands down best decision we ever made!

    We can't say enough good things about Maggie and Patrick as they are just AMAZING!! We me them at my cousin’s wedding back in June 2021 , and knew INSTANTLY we wanted them to capture our big day! You can genuinely tell how much they LOVE what they do, and truly care about giving you the best experience & phots ever on our wedding day. First time we met them, they immediately felt like friends we had known for years ❤ They go above and beyond to make sure your wedding day runs smooth and is always full of such amazing ideas! Their happiness and warm energy makes it so much fun working with them. So many friends and family have complemented our choice of photographers, and the wedding photos turned out TOP NOTCH.

    They bring the Radiance!

    From the moment we met Maggie and Patrick at a wedding show, we knew they were the photography team for us! Outgoing, engaging and just all around nice people, we knew they would be the team to bring out the best in us on our special day! They along with their team of videographers (Tony, Josh, and Sam) hustled all day long and worked seamlessly to capture every moment, both big and small. Their team kept us focused and on point the whole day. We have received many compliments from the guests on their positive energy and how engaged they were with us the entire day. I would hire them a million times over!

    Photographers for our Winter Wedding 2023

    Maggie and Patrick were GAME when we asked them to document our January 2023 Wedding. While we were shivering through our chilly outdoor photoshoot, The Nolans kept cheerful and the vibes flowing. With the help from their magic, the shivering is undetectable in our photos. I love the golden glow of the final products, it mirrors the warmth and magnificence we felt during our special day. I highly recommend this company!

    AMAZING and Stunning Photos

    Maggie and Patrick, with Living Radiant Photography, are absolutely amazing. They were so fun to work with both during our engagement shoot and on our wedding day. On the wedding day, Maggie is with the girl and Patrick is with the guys. They are such a dynamic duo and really are so fun to be around. We recently received our sneak peeks and I can't wait to see our entire gallery. Highly recommend!

    The best team!

    Maggie and Patrick were amazing to work with, they are so talented and have it down to a T! They made us feel so comfortable throughout the wedding day and take the most beautiful photos. They use their experience and do a meticulous job creating a timeline and shot list that allowed us to get through all of the pictures that we wanted and get to still enjoy the most of our cocktail hour and reception. Their passion and excitement is clear to everyone and makes it so fun to get unique pictures that they're excited to shoot. I can't say enough about this team and would 100% hire them again!

    The best decision you will ever make

    Hiring Living Radiant was one of the best decisions we made in the wedding planning process. From our first phone call, Maggie and Patrick immediately made us feel like old friends. From engagement photos, to the entire wedding day, to designing a wedding album, they made us feel so relaxed and made every step SO fun. Not only are they incredible talented, but they are also incredibly professional and kept the timeline running smoothly on our wedding day. So many guests commented that they loved having them at the reception, and they were willing to add a few extra hours of coverage on our wedding night to get additional shots. We absolutely love all of our wedding photos and would hire Maggie and Patrick again 100 times if we could!!

    More Than Just Photographers

    Maggie and Patrick (and Melissa) are truly the dream team who care so deeply about their couples! From our first meeting with Maggie over Zoom, we could tell how passionate she was about her work and how much she cared about giving us the best experience (and photos) ever on our wedding day. We knew immediately that we wanted to work with Living Radiant for our wedding photos, which were of top importance to us. Maggie and Patrick's warm energy and easy to follow directives made our engagement shoot so much fun. I never thought I would hear my husband describe a photo shoot as fun, but Maggie and Patrick made that happen.
    What could have been stressful timeline and photo planning for the wedding was seamless with Maggie's direction and ideas at our pre-wedding meeting. On wedding day, multiple wedding guests came up to me and said "You're so lucky your friends were your wedding photographers!" Imagine their surprise when they were told that my husband and I had only met Maggie and Patrick in person once before. But that's just what Maggie and Patrick felt like to us on our wedding day, like they were friends there celebrating us, making us look beautiful, and making our day easier on us any way they could! Maggie and Patrick had the warmest energy, even when they were directing large groups of family members. They were flexible with changes and were eager to problem solve when the inevitable wedding day bumps arose (such as a groomsman forgetting his pocket square). They work together so well as a team, with the bridal party, and with other vendors.

    Maggie, Patrick, and Melissa truly captured the love and joy of our wedding day in still photos. We received every photo on our shot list and so many more. Even in the August humidity as my curls were deteriorating, Maggie ensured I looked beautiful. We received the photos so quickly and loved having the sneak peeks available for thank you cards! We love looking back at the photos to re-live the day, and we have received so many compliments on our photos from friends and family! Living Radiant was one of our favorite wedding vendors and we are so glad that they do more than just weddings so we can work with them again in the future! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

    Easiest Choice You'll Make

    Maggie and Patrick make such an excellent team that they take so much worry off your day because you know they will be flawless. Their attention to detail and genuine love of their job is shown through their work. They are quick to respond, answer any questions and work with you to make sure you get every shot you want. Living Radiant was our first vendor we booked and will be using them for every life event to come! 100000/10 stars!

    Amazing team that truly cares about making your day incredible!

    Maggie and Patrick are an incredible team! We got married back in June and they not only captured our day so beautifully, but they also made sure to keep our timeline on track and that we got every photo we had put on our shot list! They meet with you ahead of the wedding to go through family dynamics, shot lists, timeline, and all. They really put the effort to make sure your day is absolutely perfect. Their expertise of being in the industry is always helpful if you want any advice or suggestions for other vendors or creative ideas! We loved all of our photos SO much it is honestly so difficult to narrow it down to a couple favorites. We are so thankful and excited that we have so many wonderful snapshots as memories of the best day. They are also such awesome people and a great couple that has so much love for each other and their work. Their videography team is also incredible - really captured the best moments of our day and created a beautiful video we can cherish forever. If you're on the fence about adding videography - we can confidently say it is SO worth it. We cannot say enough great things about the living radiant team. We are so thankful to have had them be such an important part of our special day!

    The Right Choice for One Million Reasons

    Maggie and Patrick were one of the most (if not the most) valuable parts of the best day of our lives. They were supportive, enthusiastic, professional, and extremely well-organized. They were joyful and gracious throughout every interaction and their product was creative and thoughtful.

    We planned our wedding remotely and during COVID and all the while they stayed positive and organized throughout the planning process. Working with them was easy in every way and they are an extremely talented duo as well as being a pleasure to be around.

    Wonderful Photographers!! Highly Recommend!

    We booked Living Radiant for our wedding (originally planned for Oct 2020). Due to COVID we had to push to 2021, and Maggie & Sarah were fabulous to work with. They are very professional and also very caring and will give you 150%. While we haven't had our wedding yet, we did have our engagement session and pictures are magical. They are also great with deadlines and we had all our pictures back withing the time frame that was promised/contracted. We are so excited for next year!

    An absolute must book vendor

    I cannot say enough about how wonderful Living Radiant is! They did an incredible job photographing my sister’s wedding back in 2018, so when I got engaged in 2020 I knew I had to use them. They were the first call I made, ensuring they were available before I even booked my venue!
    They are more than just incredible photographers though, they acted as our day-of-coordinator, created our timeline for the wedding day, communicated with our actual day of coordinator to give us extra time at cocktail hour and Maggie even fixed my dress when the bustle broke! They truly go above and beyond for their couples and captured our day so perfectly!
