If you have the opportunity to work with Maria we recommend you take that chance while you’ve got it. She is an AMAZING photographer, fun to work with, and is so thoughtful/ helpful during the planning journey. We’ve already had a friend say they’d hit her up if they get married because they loved our experience and photos so much. 10000% could not recommend her enough. When we were looking for a wedding and engagement photographer we wanted someone who was creative in their shots, had crystal clear photo quality, and had a true to life/vibrant photography style - and Maria was the perfect fit! We had a phone consultation where she asked thoughtful questions to get to know us as a couple but also helped asked things related to photography to help us communicate our desires and ensure she was the right fit. Maria wants her couples to have the dreamiest day and I loved how intentional she was with helping us communicate our vision - she’s the pro and knew exactly what to ask to get us thinking! We were immediately obsessed and left in awe at some sample galleries, so we signed right away. When it came time for our engagement photos we had this super fun pre-shoot questionnaire that once again consisted of thoughtful questions (our planner was SO impressed with them), such as if there were any specific shots we wanted or our comfort level with photos. My now husband and I sat down with wine and went through the questions together, so that itself was a fun planning experience. We’re not the most comfortable in front the camera so it was cool to feel seen and have her understand us before we arrived to the shoot. And let me tell you we had the BEST time! We felt comfortable so quickly and the shoot flew by. The photos turned out AMAZING and we got even more excited for the wedding. Before the wedding we had a questionnaire to go over our desires for the wedding (and even had a chance to put secret info if you had any surprises for people or just wanted her to be aware of certain family dynamics you don’t want widely disseminated). On our wedding day Maria even handled a situation for us when we asked for help and she was the most discreet and professional and got us taken care of. We just got our full gallery back and the photos are the dreamiest - incredible sunset photos, creative and thoughtful detail shots, and excellent photos of our guests. The gallery captures our day perfectly and is everything and more than we could have asked for. Maria is timely, talented, professional, a cool person, and is someone we’d hire again in a heartbeat. Plus, she’s always down for an adventure so if you want to travel I’m sure she’ll be happy to meet you there and help make your photography dreams come true. We will cherish our engagement and wedding photos forever. All photos credited to Maria at MTD Photo Co.

Congratulations on your engagement! When planning a wedding, some things are essential—the dress, the venue, the details that bring your day together. But your photographer is just as important. Long after the day has passed, your photos are what remain. They’re what you’ll come back to year after year, what you’ll share with loved ones, and what will bring you right back to how it all felt. My goal is to give you a stress-free experience and a beautifully balanced gallery—one that captures your day honestly and fully, so you’re excited to relive and share your memories for a lifetime.

Ashley was easy to coordinate with, kept us up to date with everything, had questionnaires to help us figure out what pictures we wanted, and was pure PERFECTION. Her photos are AMAZING and she helped us navigate a very rainy wedding at an outdoor ceremony making sure we got as many of the pictures we requested as possible. Ashley is a genuinely great person and super easy to be around. I truly can't say enough positive things about our experience - book her and I promise you'll never have any regrets.

We eloped in Key West and were looking for something low-key—just a few photos to document the moment and share with family. What we got with Alina and her team was so much more than we ever expected. From the very start, they understood the vibe we wanted and captured not only our love, but also the beauty and energy of the day in such an authentic way. Alina and her team were so knowledgeable, kind, and easy to work with. They made us feel comfortable and natural, and somehow managed to give us stunning, magazine-worthy images without ever making the process feel staged or overwhelming.

From the very first conversation, Casie demonstrated an open, helpful, and kind communication style that put us at ease. She took the time to get to know us and understand exactly what we were looking for in terms of capturing our special day. Casie's organizational skills, artistic eye, and clear talent were evident in the stunning photos she delivered. We had provided Casie with a detailed shot list beforehand, and she made sure to get every single photo we requested, even some we hadn't thought of. The only thing I wish we had done was make sure to get like a full length shot of my dress front and back and a great photo with just my siblings - something to keep in mind for future couples working with anyone. Overall, we are thrilled with the quality of Casie's work and highly recommend her to any couple planning their wedding. She captures people in a beautiful way that is always so unique to the couple. We did 8 hours. We recommend 9 because getting ready always takes longer than you think. - happy couple

Hey Friends. My Name is Kelly and I'm a wedding and elopement photographer in the Charlotte NC area. I've been a professional photographer for 9+ years. Growing up, I always had a disposable camera in my hand. Looking back I'm thankful for all the candid moments I captured. I still feel that same kind of wonder as I did as a kid any time I get to see photos i've captured for the first time. I have a love for all things nostalgic - which is why I LOVE capturing love on film.

We were recently married in June and had McKenna as our photographer and absolutely LOVED her work!! First off, communication was so easy throughout the whole process. She was so sweet and accommodating to everything. We did our engagement photos with her and she drove all the way from Charlotte to Duke! Leading up to the wedding, we had a few phone calls to plan logistics and she was so organized it make the whole process so easy! On the wedding day I didn’t have to worry about anything photo related. She made sure to capture every moment we wanted without putting any added stress on us.

From the moment we reached out to Birchfields, their communication was quick, thorough, and sincere. Their attention to detail and ability to make us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera resulted in exceptional photographs that captured every special moment of our wedding day. Birchfields truly went above and beyond, taking unique angles and perspectives that allowed us to relive the entire day through their stunning imagery. When it’s hard to figure out which photo you want to print out and hang on the wall, you know you picked the right photographer! We could not be happier with the final product and would highly recommend Steve to any couple looking for a talented, professional, and personable wedding photographer.
