stunning Images that don't take you out of the moment

As a calm and cool presence on your wedding day, I mostly blend into the background to capture the raw emotion and unposed events of the day, only stepping in when necessary to make sure you get the best photos possible.

ABOUT morgan

I work with couples who want to be fully present on their wedding day, with photography that feels effortless and leaves space to actually enjoy it.

I'm originally from Duxbury, Massachusetts, a quiet coastal town south of Boston. After more than a decade photographing weddings throughout New England and South Florida, I now call Annapolis, Maryland home with my husband, Scott.

Today, I primarily photograph weddings throughout Maryland, including Annapolis, the Eastern Shore, and Baltimore. I also return to Massachusetts for a select number of weddings each year.  With roots in both places, I’m happy to offer Massachusetts weddings with no additional travel fee.

my approach:

documentary style images

For most of the wedding day I don’t interfere too much, preferring to blend into the background and capture events as they unfold in a documentary style. But, I will also guide you through some natural feeling poses to get some beautiful portraits, and step in when needed to ensure you look your best.

(But i'll make sure you look good!)

WE FELT LIKE MORGAN WAS A                AND NOT JUST A VENDOR.

ABOUT YOU

They want some amazing portraits where they look good, but they want formal portrait time to be minimized. They want candid shots of family and friends having fun. And they want the photos to mostly capture the vibe and essence of the event. 

My clients prefer to spend more time living in the moment with loved ones, and less time posing for photos.

my camera roll

Scott and I were friends in high school, reconnected years later, and got married in 2025.

My happiest place is on the water.

Skiing in the winter is a huge passion of mine.

I love shooting film while traveling.
