Hi! We're Michaella & Megan, the sister team behind Smile As You Mae Photography. We have the honor of documenting love stories and preserving the moments that become lifelong memories. With over 10 years of experience and more than 350 weddings captured, we've learned that the best images happen when you feel comfortable, confident, and fully present. Michaella is our lead photographer, and Megan is our lead videographer and second photographer. As sisters, we work seamlessly together to capture every meaningful moment while creating a fun, relaxed experience for our couples.

“Smile as You Mae was phenomenal to work with! From my first inquiry to the wedding day, Michaella and Megan were a joy and instantly made me feel comfortable. I had a lot of questions and they took the time to talk through everything with me ahead of time. We stuck to the schedule we created together and were able to get everything my husband and I wanted from the shot list, and took pictures that would fit everyones tastes (details, close-up shots, formal, fun long exposure during the reception, everything you could ask for)! They were professional and got amazing photos, but many guests stated that they didn’t even know they were there throughout the reception, which is how well they were able to blend in with the group while still catching all of our moments. I can not recommend Smile as You Mae enough! I have consistently had people state that these photos look like they belong in a magazine, so if thats the quality you want (which you know you do), don’t hesitate to book them!”

“I hired Sarah to do my bridal trial for my upcoming wedding. From the get-go, Sarah was responsive, timely, and so kind. I felt like we immediately clicked. I'm not very experienced with make-up techniques or terminology, which wasn't an issue at all because Sarah explained everything thoroughly and was very patient with me. My bridal trial was perfect and I was absolutely stunned seeing my make-up in the mirror. It was natural, I wasn't freaked out, and I received a TON of compliments.

What really stood out, though, was how flexible and supportive she was when everything unexpectedly changed. My original venue canceled our wedding, and I was completely panicking, trying to replan everything. Sofya not only reassured me that she’d still be there, she actually jumped in to help, even recommending a few vendors (including the venue I ended up choosing!). She stuck by me through a full change of venue and wedding date, and handled it so well. Her flowers were stunning, and I’m grateful for her calm presence during such a stressful time.

“I had my dream wedding at Meadowview Events. This is a gorgeous venue in a beautiful location with an outdoor ceremony site, separate cocktail hour location, and a large reception space. The venue also offers ample space in both the bridal and groom suites and an extensive list of approved vendors that was very helpful as we started planning our big day. We chose not to have a wedding planner, but the venue does require a day-of coordinator. They will provide this service, but there are certainly some particularities that they have about the venue, so I would recommend asking questions about everything you are planning to ensure if meets their requirements and advocate for what you want. I was told a handful of times that what I wanted “wasn’t what was typical” but once I advocated for it, there was no issue making my vision come to life. There were some times I felt like the need to question and advocate for what I wanted led to added stress during the planning process, but nothing too extreme to not make it worth having our day at this beautiful space. After months of planning, the day of staff was very attentive and worked well with family and vendors to ensure everything was in place and taken care of and that our day ran smoothly. As you plan your special day at this venue, make sure to discuss, ask questions, and advocate for your vision with the owner to ensure that your vision becomes a reality while staying within the requirements and guidelines of the venue. In the end, Meadowview Events helped us have the wedding and reception I had always dreamed of – it was the perfect setting for the perfect day!”

Hi! I’m a new photographer with a deep passion for storytelling through rich, moody tones and whimsical artistry. My style embraces both true-to-life moments and creative expression. I photograph weddings, lifestyle sessions, family and newborn portraits, and have a special heart for working with autism families—creating a calm, supportive space where every story unfolds naturally. Whether it’s your big day or quiet, everyday beauty, I’m here to capture it all.

“From our first conversation with the team at Maples Edge Weddings & Events, we knew we were in good hands. They listened to what we wanted and made our day exactly how we envisioned it, thanks to their inventory of centerpieces and decorations that gave us so many options. When we arrived on our wedding day, everything was already set up and ready to go—no stress on our end at all. The staff was accommodating and genuinely great people to work with throughout the entire process. Their attention to detail and support made everything flow smoothly, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Maples Edge to any couple looking for a venue that truly cares about making your day special.”
