Sam H. Sent on 10/14/2023A dream come true!
We had an amazing experience with both our engagement and our wedding photos. He was wonderful to work with, kind, caring, and thought of everything!! We LOVED working with you!M. Carter Photography's reply:
Sam & Joshua,
I call your engagement session the adventure! You picked such a unique location and mother nature and father technology tried to hold us down.....BUT WE PREVAILED! You both were such troopers as we raced the rain and fog to capture dreamy engagement photos almost 100% candid!
Now your wedding...you gave me such an amazing gift. You let me return to Whistling Wren Farm for a second time to capture your special day. When we add on the amazing BBQ, caricature artist, and happy-energy, you get a perfect wedding to be part of!
Thank you for taking time to share your experience, the feelings of our interaction are 100% mutual on my side!
Happy Holiday! -

We loved our experience with Marcus and M.Carter Photography! I was initially drawn to Marcus' ability to capture the authentic nature of events and emotions throughout the wedding day. And we received just that for our wedding day! We used Marcus for both our engagement shoot and wedding day. Marcus is professional, communicative, and you really get the feeling that he cares about giving his clients the best experience and photos based on what you want. He has great wedding packages, including offering more time on site than other competitors. Also, we received our wedding photos and "highlight" photos quicker than mostly everyone else in the business would have done. We would highly recommend!M. Carter Photography's reply:
Holly & Mike,
Thank you for such a warm and thoughtful review! I really loved the fun-classy energy that you brought to your engagement and carried into your wedding! Your wedding had the perfect blend of modern style and rustic intimacy that made capturing it an absolute joy. The photos of your private dance are some of my favorites to date and I cannot wait to relive moments like that when I share these!
I hope you both are enjoyed married life, and have a great holiday! -

Marcus really went above and beyond to make our day special. From our first meeting to engagement photos to the wedding day of he was on top of everything and an absolute joy to be around. He made taking photos fun and it was easy to smile knowing our memories would be in good hands. I will absolutely be working with him again for our important moments.M. Carter Photography's reply:
Ryan & Jess,
Talk about a memorable experience for 2023! Your engagement session was so much fun, it was hard to actually do what I was there to do which is take photos not laugh! Fast-forward to your wedding and we dodged a hurricane, had fire pit private vowels, and capped it off with ice cream!
I am honored to have been provided the opportunity to be your friendographer throughout this remarkable time in your lives. I cannot wait to meet your newest edition and hopefully add to your memory collection with round two - Doggo Family Session!
Happy Holidays! -

Absolutely amazing
Marcus was great! He was professional, fast, responsive, and the photos were amazing! He spent time helping us get organized ahead with numerous phone calls for planning and time lines. He was able to get every shot we needed in a very limited time plus some! Photos were so amazing we had numerous friends and family ask for his contact info! Even photos completely candid looked beyond what we could ask for! -

Perfect wedding photos!
Marcus was an absolute pleasure to work with! He is very detailed oriented and helped me formulate a timeline for day of our wedding as I didn’t know where to start! He made me feel comfortable from our first call and I knew right away I wanted to work with him.
Our pictures are FLAWLESS! & I would hire him again in a heartbeat.M. Carter Photography's reply:
Roxana,
You and David truly were a dream couple to work with on your big day! Starting from our very first interaction I knew this was going to be an amazing wedding to capture. Your energy, positive attitude, and undeniable love for each other are what gave life to your gallery!
It was an honor to work with you both and I really do hope our paths cross again for round 2!
(not a wedding of course...lol) -

Fast and efficient
Marcus did an amazing job with our photos and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera! I really like how we got to choose some of our favorite pictures . Marcus was very responsive to all my messages !M. Carter Photography's reply:
Pia!
It was so much fun getting to work with you and Gerard! I know the bugs wanted so badly to be involved in your elopement, however, it wasn't about them! Thank you for sticking it out and bringing such positivity and joy to our session.
I hope you both are doing great, if you ever need a button pusher to freeze time I know a guy haha! -

Mariel G. Sent on 03/24/2023Easy to work with, beautiful photos, perfect choice
Everything about working with Marcus is LOVELY — from the first phone call, to our engagement photos, to our elopement photos. I was initially anxious about hiring a photographer, especially since (1) I had no idea where to start and (2) we were eloping so these were going to be *the* thing to mark the day. He was my first phone call and within 5 minutes of talking to him I was sold. I only had two broad (vague) ideas for what I wanted and he took them and turned them into plans I could be excited about.
Ultimately, our engagement photos involved a last minute location change and our elopement photos ended up needing a schedule change. Marcus was nothing but responsive and encouraging through everything. He was ready with new ideas and managed to keep me excited when I'd have otherwise been really stressed. I’m not sure anyone else would have been so flexible while also staying so warm and kind.
And of course, the photos are gorgeous. He manages to talk to you and make you laugh and feel like you’re just hanging out while also capturing a thousand (literally) photos. The last time my husband or I had professional photos taken we were probably in high school, but Marcus was a pro at making us feel comfortable. His eye is great and he sees things we’d have never thought of, to beautiful results. I’ve already told my husband when we need photos for anything in the future, we’re calling Marcus.
12/10 recommend. Giving him glowing reviews is going to be my new hobby, and if you work with him it’ll be yours too.M. Carter Photography's reply:
Mariel!
Thank you for much for such kind words about working with me! So sorry for the delay in responding to your review. Having the opportunity to work with you and Paul not once, but twice was truly a gift! You both were so fun to work with, brought an amazing energy, and most importantly love for each other that I got to capture over and over again! I wish you both nothing but the best for years and years to come! -

Choosing the right photographer for your wedding is one of the most important decisions you will make in the planning process – after all, the wedding photos are going to be your lasting keepsake!
Marcus was the PERFECT choice for capturing the spirit and beauty of our wedding day! Everyone who has seen my photos has been totally blown away by the quality of his work.
Not only that, but working with Marcus was truly wonderful. He’s incredibly kind and professional, and he made me feel like I was in good hands from day one. I had a few shots that I knew I wanted to get and not only was he receptive to my ideas, he also suggested a lot of shots I would have never thought about (and loved!).
Working with Marcus on the actual day of our wedding was basically just like hanging out with a friend who happened to be a world-class photographer. He was a special talent for making people feel comfortable in front of the camera with his gentle demeanor and easy laughter.
My advice? Do NOT hesitate to book this man immediately – he’s a true gem!M. Carter Photography's reply:
Ok like.....WHAT! I'm not crying...you're crying.....ok I'm CRYING?!?! Kacey thank you so much for these kind words. You have been such an amazing support of me, my wife, my work, and my business. It was an absolute honor and privilege to have been able to spend this weekend with you and Kendrick. You are truly one of the kindest people I've ever come across in my life and I'm so happy for you and Kendrick! I know we will be able to create more memories in years to come and I cannot wait! -

Danny Sent on 11/30/2022Perfect engagement shoot!
Marcus is the epitome of what you want in a photographer: professional, creative, understanding, and most importantly a fantastic listener. Marcus was able to capture our special moment despite the logistics being a bit complicated, and our needs being a bit specific. During the moment and in the shoot after, Marcus brought his vision (respectfully) and was really able to bring out the best in us. One of the best parts is that all of this happens with a fun, bubbly person on your team. I can't recommend him enough - he'll get the job done perfectly. 10/10.M. Carter Photography's reply:
Danny! Thank you so much for leaving such a kind review. It was so much fun planning and executing your surprise proposal! You and Caitlin as always were amazing to hang out and take photos with. Can't wait to celebrate with you all in April! -

Larissa Sent on 12/29/2022Hire them!!!!
I had the opportunity to work with Marcus at a wedding in October, and I had a great experience!! As a wedding planner, I could notice he was prepared, organized, and very professional! He knew the time needed to capture the first look, the bridal party, and other important shots requested by the bride. During the wedding, everything went great with the photos plan, and the results were amazing!!! His style is unique and special! Great photographer!!
Thank you Marcus for everything, and I really enjoyed working with you!!
