you Won't find copy and paste photos here
Your queer hype girl, chaos wrangler, and certified vibe protector.
A picnic with your love on a random Tuesday.
Moments that feel straight out of an Indie film with a flock of seagulls flying perfectly overhead as if they got a peek of the moodboard.
A photoshoot that feels like a summer mixtape while you’re skating around with your love.
A stolen kiss while on the subway on the way to your ceremony.
Matching PJs & celebratory champagne in a cluttered Airbnb living room
…then hi.
I’m Madalyn.
(hover to reveal)
But if you want...
“She has such a vision for photos and has a way of capturing love unlike any other photographer I’ve seen!”
Fix your lipstick after your best friend makes you ugly cry during vows — then hype you back up so you’re laughing by the time you walk out. (Always the goal).
Get your grandma on the dance floor in her sparkly sneakers before she sneaks extra cake when no one’s watching (I’m not judging - it’s a vibe).
Send you a custom playlist so you’re dancing in your airbnb while you get ready with your love. Because duh?
Catch the split-second glance you share mid-dance floor spin, the ring exchange giggles and the ‘holy shit, we’re doing this’ stairwell moment at midnight.
Build a timeline that leaves room for pancakes & breakfast burritos with your son and soon-to-be husband at your favorite hole-in-the-wall.
I show up and create a space where your people get comfortable enough to be real — then I document every messy, precious second.
I’ll….
But not me.
Most photographers show up, click through a list, and call it a day.
How i make you forget there’s even a Camera

My shy husband was SMILING for real — and the photos are beautiful. Highly, highly recommend booking her!”
“It felt like hanging out with a friend I’d known for years.
And me: your emotional support human with a camera and snacks.
Deep-dive planning & a custom timeline — so the day feels like yours, not a checklist.
A 60-question love story deep dive — because dammit I care about your weird inside jokes and the song you can’t hear without crying.
Location scouting & mood-specific prompts — no forced posing here.
Sneak peeks in a few days — not weeks.
A final gallery that feels like flipping through your favorite old photo box: blurry, raw, honest, perfect.

The stuff you’re probably Wondering
Absolutely! I’m based in Missouri but I’ll pack my bags for your backyard bash in Kansas or your elopement on a California cliffside. Just say the word. Travel fees depend on distance and timing.

Same. That’s why I won’t shove you into stiff poses. I use natural prompts, play music, and gently direct when needed — so you feel comfortable and look good without feeling like you’re acting for the camera.

I don’t cap galleries with an exact number because that’s weird — if it’s good, you get it. On average? Expect about 60–80 photos per hour of coverage.

Sneak peeks drop within a few days because I’m just as impatient as you are. Full gallery lands in 4–6 weeks, depending on the season.

Bring your dog. Bring your cat. Bring your pet lizard in a bow tie. Zero judgment — more cuteness for the gallery,

Then you get epic rain photos. Or we pivot to a cozy indoor plan. I always have a plan B (and C) up my sleeve — weather won’t ruin your day, promise (...unless it’s cloudy with a chance of meatballs).

Hell yeah. I build your timeline, share local spot recommendations, and guide you through anything photo-related so you don’t have to guess. Think of me as your built-in calm in the chaos.
