Honest. Effortless. Joyful
Virginia Wedding Photography
for couples who value spontaneity, joy, & quality time with loved ones.
natural, honest photography centered around joy & and the moments that make us feel alive
Hi, I’m Molly - a Virginia Wedding Photographer serving couples who want to not only feel comfortable in front of the camera, but to truly feel seen and cared for on their wedding day. I am for you if you want photos that feel real and lived-in, like a ray of sunshine or your sister’s big laugh.
When you look back at these photos, I want you to be transported back to just how the day felt, the way you smiled…like really smiled with your whole face, and not just for the camera.
One day, when you, your children or your great-great-grandchildren open a photo album, I want you to not just remember the way you looked, but the way you were so loved.
wedding photography that feels like home
I understand that it feels overwhelming to invite a stranger into your wedding story, to document your precious memories for you, to see you, listen to you and understand your relationship, to interact with your friends & family, and to celebrate one of your biggest days alongside you!
The most important part of working with a photographer is not just the photos you receive at the end, but the trust you’ll build along the way. I want you to feel comfortable with me, seen, and guided through every step of this process. That is how you end up with a gallery that documents the genuine heartbeat of your day, and your love story.

“She’s not just a phenomenal photographer—she’s the kind of person you want to have around on one of the most important days of your life.”
Diana & Jason Benedict, 2025 Couple
You’re planning a day that feels like you two, filled with meaning, full of love, and surrounded by your favorite people.
You want to soak it in.
To remember how it sounded, how it felt, how everyone smiled at you like they knew this love would last.
“From the very first meeting, it was clear how deeply she cares about her couples. Molly took the time to really get to know us, our story, and what mattered most to us.”
kayla & matt campbell, 2025 Couple
I know what it’s like to want to bottle it all up
The way your partner looks at you when no one else is around
How young, hot & in love you two were ;)
The sound of your grandma laughing at your reception
The warmth of having all your people in one place, for one perfect night you never want to end
And I know how it feels to worry that photos won’t do it justice.
That you’ll look stiff. That it’ll feel awkward. That the magic won’t come through. My promise to you is that you don’t have to perform for the camera to get photos you love.
You just need someone who listens to you, helps you to be present, watches for the moments you’ll miss, and documents your day with heart.
That is my absolute favorite part of this work.
Love Notes from Clients
Molly was the best decision we could have ever made in hiring a photographer. She was so professional, fun and definitely made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. From our engagement photos down to our wedding day we couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. She got all the photos my wife wanted & made her “photo dreams” come to life.
We cannot recommend hiring Molly more. She’s fantastic and you definitely will be extremely happy with the photos you receive.
- Ashley & Mitchell
We had the absolute pleasure of having Molly as our wedding photographer, and let me tell you—OH MY GOD! Her skills exceeded all of our expectations. She beautifully captured every moment, from start to finish, preserving the emotions and details we’ll cherish forever. Beyond her incredible talent, Molly was an absolute joy to work with. She made us feel completely at ease, never rushed us, and never asked us to do anything that felt uncomfortable or forced. Her approach was so natural, and she truly has a gift for capturing moments we didn’t even realize were happening. We were beyond thrilled with her work, her warm personality, and her ability to capture such genuine, unforgettable moments. We loved her so much that she also shot our engagement photos! If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only skilled but also a pleasure to be around, we can’t recommend Molly enough. She’s truly the best!
- Sandra & Jimmy
Molly was absolutely amazing for our wedding photographer. She had multiple packages to choose from, but was also flexible with what we chose. Before we chose her as our photographer, we had a phone call to ensure we vibed and were on the same page about what we were looking for. Molly was so detailed and wanted to ensure she captured exactly what we wanted. On wedding day, she was everywhere she needed to be without anyone realizing - she blended in so well to capture all of the candid moments of the day, which are some of our favorite pictures in our gallery. 10/10 recommend Molly for your wedding photographer!
- Ansleigh & Tanner
My husband and I both felt unsure about being in front of the camera all day, but Molly made it fun and put us both at ease. Molly did our engagement photos and wedding day, and both times we just spent the day laughing with her. She is such a kind and authentic person, and very laid back. It is so easy to feel comfortable around her and feel like fast friends. Her talent speaks for itself and every single time we were stunned by the photos she sent us. We would recommend Molly to anyone and everyone, she exceeded all our expectations! Thank you so much Molly for capturing the most perfect pictures!
- Sarah & Andrew
We were lucky enough to find Molly to be our wedding photographer (+engagement pics!). She is absolutely fantastic!! She is so talented, personable, and makes anyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. Given my husband works in the entertainment industry, the day after our wedding people came up to us to say how great Molly was, and to ask if she was a friend - because that is how down to earth and awesome she is! She wasn’t a friend before we hired her, but I’d say she is now ☺️. We can’t recommend her enough!
- Lauren & Dan
Molly captured our wedding exactly how we imagined it! We fell in love with her documentary style photography and warm/natural editing style. It was so great we had a chance to do an engagement shoot before the day and become familiar with each other. Even though she hadn't been to our venue before she familiarized herself quickly and captured our whole day beautifully! Molly instantly makes you feel comfortable, with her calm/laid back/fun personality. The photos she captures honestly reflect your own personality and authentic experience on your wedding day! We were so happy with how our photos turned out and highly recommend Molly!

These photos are about so much more than just the next day Instagram post.
These are your first family heirlooms as a married couple, the one thing you’ll take with you from your wedding day to remember how young & in love you were.
I believe your wedding photos should still feel timeless 50 years from now. You deserve an experience crafted with intention, care, and heart.
You’re not just booking someone to show up with a camera and run through a list. You’re trusting someone to document your memories for you, and to treat your day and your story as sacred.
finally,
For me, it’s really about you. Making you feel comfortable, helping you to have fun and genuinely enjoy your day. It’s about the joy, the mess, the laughter, the hugs and the tears that tell your honest story. One thing I’ve come to know with my whole heart is that it’s the seemingly small moments that make up our core memories. Let’s fully document yours.
