They were thoughtful about every detail, including working through our photo list and adding creative touches we hadn't even thought of. On the day of our wedding, they captured the true feeling of what made our celebration special—not just the big moments, but the small ones too.

I’m Madalina, a wedding photographer based in Miami and the Jersey Shore, but I’ll happily follow love wherever it takes me. I’ve always been drawn to the quiet, meaningful moments: the way your partner looks at you when you’re not looking, the hug from your mom that lasts a little longer, the feeling of joy that hangs in the air. My approach is calm, intentional, and heartfelt. I want your photos to feel like you: beautiful, honest, and full of soul.

“From my first conversation with Madalina Photographer, I knew I had found the right fit for our engagement photos. She responded quickly to all of my questions and kept everything straightforward and upbeat throughout the planning process. When weather threatened to derail our surprise proposal, Madalina didn't hesitate to shift the timing and even offered smart suggestions on when the light would look best. During our shoot, she made us feel at ease with her guidance on poses and encouraged us to be ourselves, capturing both posed shots and genuine candid moments that we'll treasure. Her turnaround time for the edited photos was impressively fast, and the quality of every image exceeded what we were hoping for. I would highly recommend Madalina for anyone looking for engagement photography.”

Hi! I’m Shauna — but you can call me Shay. I’m the photographer behind Milestone. What started as a side business in 2015 became my full-time dream in 2022, and I thank God daily that I get to serve amazing couples through my work. I met my husband at 15 and we’ve been together ever since, so love stories have always meant a lot to me. As a wife and mom of two adventurous boys, I know how meaningful life’s biggest milestones are. My goal is to give every couple a relaxed, fun experience and a gallery of memories you’ll treasure for a lifetime.

“From the moment we started planning our backyard wedding, Shauna was so much more than just a photographer. She helped us think through the setup, guided us on where everything should go for the best lighting, and truly brought our vision to life in ways we didn’t even know we needed. On the day of, she was a calming, grounding presence. When nerves kicked in, she was right there- steady, supportive, and somehow capturing every moment so naturally and beautifully at the same time. And the photos… I don’t even have the words. They are everything we hoped for and more. She captured not just how it looked, but how it felt. One of my favorite photos is of all six of us hugging- it’s so natural, so full of love, and perfectly captures us as a family. I will treasure these photos forever and will always be grateful for the role Shauna played in our day. If you’re considering booking her, do it!!”

Being able to look back, remember the great laughs, and reminisce a particular night is what we all look forward to. Our goal is to help everyone remember one of the best nights by telling your story through our eyes. There is no better compliment than for you to show your loved ones what happened through one of the best days of your lives.

“We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience during our engagement shoot! From the moment we arrived, the energy was infectious — we were laughing, moving, and genuinely having the time of our lives. It never once felt like a photoshoot; it felt like spending the afternoon with a friend who just happened to have a camera. What truly set our photographer apart was the perfect balance of fun and professionalism. They kept the session lighthearted and exciting while never losing their sharp eye for the details that make a photo extraordinary — the way the light hit just right, thoughtful staging of every scene, and gentle, natural posing direction that made us both feel completely at ease in front of the camera. No stiff, awkward poses here — every shot felt candid and authentic. Their patience was also something we deeply appreciated. They never rushed us, always made sure we were comfortable, and took the time to get each shot exactly right. You can feel that care and intentionality in every single image. And the final photos? Absolutely stunning. The quality speaks for itself — crisp, vibrant, and full of genuine emotion. We are so in love with every single one and will treasure them forever. If you are on the fence, consider this your sign to book them immediately. You will not regret it for a single second. We are already counting down the days until our wedding so we can work with them again!”

We’re Mark and Brittany Edman, the husband-and-wife team behind This Insane Idea Photography. Brittany was the one who encouraged Mark to take his lifelong love of photography full time. It sounded like an insane idea at the time, but documenting weddings quickly became the work we love most. Mark photographs the day as it unfolds: the big emotions, the quiet moments, and everything in between. Brittany brings 20 years of hospitality experience to helping couples feel cared for and keeping the day flowing. Together, we get to know you and the people you love so you can feel comfortable, stay present, and enjoy your wedding. Our approach is simple: nothing added, nothing taken away. Your story, captured as it felt.

Awarded Best of Zola
“It was an absolute pleasure to have This Insane Idea photograph not only our entire wedding weekend in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, but also our engagement in New York City two years earlier. I have a close relationship with Mark and Brittany, the founders of This Insane Idea, so it would be easy to assume that’s why we chose them. The reality is that I have always been incredibly impressed by Mark and his team’s talent behind the camera, as well as Brittany’s knowledge of wedding planning and understanding of how a wedding day should flow. I truly could not have asked for a better photography team. Throughout our wedding weekend, everything felt completely under control and according to plan. We captured all of the photographs that mattered to us without ever feeling like the photography took us away from actually experiencing the weekend. I was especially impressed by the way Mark worked with our friends and family. So many people told us afterward how comfortable they felt, including family members who normally aren’t at ease in front of a camera. Mark gives clear direction while still making everything feel natural and relaxed, and that really comes through in the photographs. As a bride, photography was truly the last thing I had to worry about because I knew Mark and his team had it handled. We received sneak peeks almost immediately, and our full gallery came back incredibly quickly. I also really appreciated how receptive Mark and Brittany were to our ideas and how closely they listened to our vision. As a professional designer, I was very involved in the creative direction of our entire wedding and naturally had thoughts about the photography as well. They listened to my perspective while bringing their own expertise and creativity, and the result felt completely aligned with what we had envisioned. Most importantly, they beautifully captured not just how our wedding looked, but the people and moments that made the weekend so special. Our friends and family were just as thrilled with the photographs as we were. We are incredibly grateful to Mark, Brittany, and the entire This Insane Idea team for documenting both our engagement and wedding so beautifully. We truly could not recommend them more to any couple looking for a photography team they can completely trust with such an important time in their lives.”

Both women gave effortless direction to the MANY bridal party and family members they had to wrangle throughout the day and accommodated the countless variations of photographers I requested. The pictures that they captured speak for themselves and truly reveal how talented she is. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone who is looking for a relatable, high-energy and professional photographer. Magdalena Studios has an INCREDIBLY impressive team!”

I get to come into your life, envelop myself in the magic of your love, inspire sweet interactions and freeze those unbeatable moments in time.

If you seek classic images with a heap of genuine emotion and a dash of adventure, I already know we’ll be fast friends. Let’s grab a virtual coffee and hang!

“Working with Danielle is always a treat, she is has a natural positive energy and that shows in her portfolios. Couples are in their natural state, at ease with Danielle and not posed. I love the way she captures color in it's true form and her detail shots are thoughtfully arranged. We look forward to the next event Danielle!”

I’m an artist, a husband, a brother, a dear friend, an inquirer of life and a creative soul. I was born and raised in central New Jersey (if such a thing exists) where I still reside. I have a deep appreciation for the nostalgic things in life. Things that have the ability to bring you back to a happy place in your lifetime. I suppose this is why I love what I do so much, why it is so fulfilling. I am creating those nostalgic things for everyone else.

“Tim was an excellent choice for our wedding photographer! From start to finish, he made the process easy. He was always there to discuss and was a great help in figuring out the timeline of our day. He made us feel at ease on the day itself, and captured some amazing shots in a more documentary style, which is what we were looking for. Jeff, the second photographer he brought, was also great and had a great personality. Definitely recommend!”
