(Like, I will cry at your ceremony and then immediately hand you a granola bar and a baby wipe. Balanced.)

But I'm also a Diet Coke–drinking, Rascal-Flatts-tattoo-having, playlist-making third wheel with a camera and a deeply unhinged amount of feelings about love.

COULD

You                   call me a Wedding photographer…

hi, i’m that one girl from missouri—     Maddy from    Missouri                                       

I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all timelines, poses, or galleries. 

I believe in music cues that make you cry-laugh, blue-sky obsessions, spontaneous shots that become inside jokes, and tiny moments you didn’t even notice until you saw them frozen in a photo. 

I believe in showing up fully for your day — not just to shoot it, but to feel it with you.

Because it shouldn't.

This work changed me. 

It showed me what love can look like when it’s honest, intentional, and free — and that’s exactly what I want to give back to you.

Photos that don’t just document a day, but remind you who you are and how deeply you’re loved.

People call me their photographer. But they also call me the friend who makes them feel seen, safe, and hyped the hell up — especially on a day where emotions run high, and the weirdest parts of you deserve to be celebrated, not hidden.

I've documented over 150 weddings in the past two years — and I mean it when I say: not a single one has looked or felt the same.

what it's like to work with    Me

You get a photographer who preps like a Virgo but shows up like a Golden Retriever.

Who listens between the lines of your 60-question questionnaire.

Basically? I care. A lot. Maybe too much. But that’s kinda the point.

Who feels what’s happening and isn’t afraid to guide, pull back, or quietly nudge something beautiful into existence.

Who will remind you to eat something before the ceremony,

Who’ll tell your friends exactly where to point their phone flashlights for a chaotic-cute group shot.

Because yeah… I’m kind of obsessed with this job (and you).

“My favorite part about Madalyn is how excited she gets to work with each client.”

Here are a few things you’ll probably learn about me once we’ve spent, like, 5 minutes together:

I'm Tatted.

I have 29 tattoos, including a Lightning McQueen one I got after getting high on Easter and watching Cars. No regrets.

I'm a Former Tour Rat.

I used to drive across the country crashing shows and sleeping on couches. They called it Maddy on Tour. Now I just crash weddings — with a camera.

I Come Prepared.

My camera bag also includes snacks, makeup wipes, a mini speaker, and emotional support Diet Coke. Just in case.

I'm Chill — But Make it Type A

I can vibe with your grandma, herd 20 groomsmen into a photo, and build a timeline that gives you actual breathing room. Chaos? Handled.

SOUND LIKE A MATCH?

I don’t care if you're getting married in a barn, a courthouse, a rented art museum, or barefoot at a beach picnic with your besties — if it feels like you, I want in.
