I'm so glad you're thrilled with your wedding photos! It means a lot to know you had such a positive experience.
I have had Marianne take photos of my family every year for over 10 years now. I will not go to anyone else! Her photos are always amazing. One thing that is extra special about Marianne is how comfortable she makes you feel! Even my 3 kids who don’t always love the camera feel at ease and give her the best smiles! I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!!
Marianne is simply the best of the best. She's fun, engaging, creative, and thorough. I don't know how she manages to get the perfect shot every time, but she does. She's a master at breaking-the-ice to even the most reluctant of men (young and old) and has them flashing their genuine smiles in no time. She is patient and captures the true essence of our wild and crazy family EVERY.SIMGLE.TIME!!!!! She masterfully knows how to engage our family to break free from the awkwardness of not being professional models and effortlessly helps us feel at ease while getting an amazing array of photos for us to cherish for a lifetime. Don't hesitate! Just book her!!!!
I was really looking forward to having Marianne for a proposal because her portfolio spoke for itself. The booking process went smoothly, but she didn't show up on the day and time that we scheduled. She offered to take pictures, and my security deposit will cover it, but there was only one moment I wanted her to capture and she wasn't there. I just hope it doesn't happen to anybody else who books with her.

I am so sorry Rain. We had originally scheduled for a Saturday and you emailed to change it to Friday. I forgot to change the date in my calendar and 100% shouldve double checked with you. As soon as I realized the mistake I jumped in the car and would've made it there 20 minutes late and asked you to stall for 20 minutes. You texted me and told me "its fine, we'll have family take the photos" I said I would refund your deposit and take the photos for free and even offered to do an engagement session the next day but you reiterated that it was fine. I am so sorry and I wish you would've let me make it up to you. I 100% am going to be better about confirming changes to appointments.
We had an amazing experience with Marianne! We had two littles for family photos and she was so fun and patient. A few times we asked our 3 year old to smile and he absolutely frowned at her. She was so kind and flexible with our kids. It made family photos fun and we'll definitely do them with her again in the future!
Marianne was incredible. From make the booking process so simple and easy all the way to the day of. Me and my husband eloped and have never been to Montana before. Marianne did not disappoint with all her amazing photo locations. She helped make this day absolutely special and memorable.
I can’t say enough amazing things about our photographer! From the moment we started our session, they made us feel completely comfortable and natural in front of the camera. I’m not usually someone who loves being photographed, but they had me laughing the entire time and truly brought out the best in us.
The photos turned out absolutely stunning—better than I could have imagined! They captured our connection and joy perfectly, and every image feels so genuine and full of love. You can tell how much passion and care goes into their work. I’m so grateful for the experience and for the memories they helped us create. If you’re looking for someone who will not only take beautiful photos but also make the entire process fun and effortless, this is your person!
Loved working with Marianne!
We were so lucky to have Marianne photograph my daughter's wedding! She is an excellent photographer who captured the love and joy of my daughter's wedding along with the beauty of the venue and view. She understood the wedding vibe and her photos show the details as well as the emotion! She's positive energy and our guests enjoyed her. Thank you Marianne! We love the photos.
