About Forbis Fotography

Forbis Fotography

Here for ALL of life's adventures.

Hello, friends! I'm a wife, momma, & self proclaimed adventurer. I live with my husband, Ryan, in Central Missouri, but spend a lot of time on the road traveling! From Colorado & the PNW to Germany & New Zealand, I'm a fan of world travels...and I'm more than willing to go just about anywhere for YOU! I'm here to capture ALL of life's adventures for you.

If you're looking for a laid-back, bubbly, mildly sarcastic gal to capture your day, you best believe I'm ready for it. If you want rigid, sterile, and stiff photos of your big day...we probably won't be a good fit. I know it's the little moments that often mean the most when looking back, so don't be surprised when you end up with tender photos of grandparents dancing, children playing, and sweet embraces with guests in your gallery. Yes, you'll get all the typical wedding photos, and we'll focus a LOT on capturing portraits of you & your love, but we'll also make sure you're able to remember the way your day truly FELT.

    Amazing Work

    What drew us to Forbis Fotography was the way Marissa is able to capture the feelings of the day. She has a way of being able to capture the picture at the exact right moment to capture real emotions. We were not let down with our wedding photos. She was a wonderful communicator leading up to the event and after, never leaving us wondering what would happen next. Additionally it felt like we had someone at our wedding who felt like a friend! She was warm, friendly, and able to make everyone comfortable while she snapped her shots. Marissa is fantastic and we can’t recommend her enough!

    Marissa was amazing every step of the way. She helped to narrow down an elopement location base off of our wants. She also came up with a detailed schedule for the whole time spent with her, and options to choose from base off the location we picked! Due to weather, I had a freak out a couple days before the elopement. When I emailed her about my concerns, she responded within 15 minutes reassuring me she was making a back up plan and emailed a new detailed schedule with options within a few hours! And the pictures?! Phenomenal! Everything I could have hoped for!

    Marissa is THE BEST!

    From the moment we first connected with Marissa at Forbis Fotography, we knew we were in good hands. Their communication style was thoughtful, thorough, and responsive, putting us at ease throughout the entire wedding planning process. The quality of their work was truly breathtaking - their attention to detail and mindful approach resulted in stunning, beautiful photographs that perfectly captured all the special moments of our big day. Marissa made us feel so comfortable, allowing us to truly enjoy every moment while she seamlessly documented it all. As long-time clients, having worked with Forbis Fotography for 5 previous shoots, we can say with certainty that they are the best in the business and we wouldn't trust anyone else to capture our most precious memories.

Real wedding inspiration featuring Forbis Fotography

Show all photos

Typically, couples book me around 9 months-1 year prior to their wedding date. If you plan on having a fall wedding, I suggest reaching out as quickly as possible, as dates in September and October are always the first to fill up!
ABSOLUTELY! I'm a one-woman operation over here (with the exception of a second shooter on your day-of), so all communication, shooting, culling, and editing is done by yours truly! I want to make sure that I can build a relationship with each of my clients, and this is the best way I've found to do so.
My turnaround time varies slightly by season, but you'll have a full gallery delivered to you by 8 weeks after your date at the latest! I also deliver a preview within 72hrs so you can share a bit of your day with your friends and family immediately after your wedding!
This varies greatly depending on your package booked, whether you chose to have a second shooter, and the size of your wedding. I tell my clients that they can expect at LEAST 50 images per hour of shooting, but this is usually an underestimate!
