"If I could give Madeleine more than 5 stars, I certainly would! I found her and as soon as we spoke over the phone, I knew she was the kind of person I want to work with - she's smart, personable, and extremely talented! She did our engagement shoot, our 4 wedding events in the DC area, and our wedding reception in NY just a few weeks ago! She's made the entire process very smooth and stress-free for us. She would set up the meetings with us, she has a game plan, she asks questions and she is so organized and engaged! Madeleine genuinely wants the best for you on your special day! She goes BEYOND expectations with her talented photography, and the cherry on top is her bubbly personality, and professional, reliable, and timely behavior. She captures moments that you could not imagine it would look so good on camera! One of the best things I like about Madeleine's work is that her pictures don't look photo shopped, she uses natural lighting and captures true emotion and beauty through candid pictures. If you're looking for those things, then Madeleine is your girl! You will also love her as a person and want to book her for all your events from now to infinity and beyond! I can not say enough good things about her!!!!!"

It was a little chilly the morning we shot, and she was thoughtful enough to bring hand/foot warmers to us to help warm us up when we needed it. When I forgot a blanket for my daughter she offered to take her coat off for her and also took her scarf off so she wouldn’t be too cold sitting on the marble steps of the Jefferson. She is really friendly, laid back, and really easy to work with. She spent a lot of time helping me pick our wardrobe for the photos. She also got the photos back to me in a very timely manner! This was something I was very impressed by as some photographers take several weeks/months to get photos back to you. Madeleine was so nice to work with and her photos have created memories for our family that will last forever.”
Read More“Madeleine was our fairy god mother throughout the wedding process! She was our photographer, wedding planner, outfit coordinator, and offered so much support and advice. She is the WHOLE PACKAGE! On the actual day of our wedding, Madeleine was pivotal in ensuring the wedding ran smoothly and efficiently. Amid the chaos, Madeleine stayed relaxed and made sure everyone was having a good time even with all our family members hovering over her. Her professionalism really shined. We felt so honored and lucky to have her by our side! We received our sneak peeks within 24 hours of the wedding and I cried!!!! Words cannot express how much of a joy it was working with Madeleine and I am beyond happy with how gorgeous the photos turned out. SHE IS THE BEST!!!!!”
Read More“Hiring Madeleine to photograph our wedding was the best decision we made in the entire planning process. She was an absolute pleasure to work with for us and for our families (who tend to have very strong opinions) and we got so many compliments about how friendly and on top of everything she and her second shooter, Jocelyn, were. We had quite a few setbacks in our planning and Madeleine was one vendor we knew we could count on to be prepared, professional and kind no matter what we asked of her (like travelling all the way to Pittsburgh so we could fit an engagement shoot into our busy schedules!) We left our photo locations entirely up to her and her genius and couldn't be happier with the secret places in DC she recommended for our photos. Everything was perfect and she was the sole reason we all stuck to our timeline on our big day. Thank you so much Madeleine for guiding us and our big wedding party through the day and keeping us all on schedule while capturing the most amazing photos. Madeleine is incredibly talented and I would highly highly highly recommend her to anyone and everyone! She goes above and beyond for her couples and it really doesn't get any better or sweeter than this masterful woman right here! Thank you so much for everything!”
Read More“We found Madeleine online when we were looking for an engagement photographer, and knew that our weddings would be in other states so were not even considering booking one photographer for all events! Once we met Madeleine, though, and saw her photos, we knew that we had to make it happen. Madeleine was a joy to work with, from the engagement photos, to the rehearsal dinner, to our Catholic wedding, and then to our Indian wedding and sangeet. She brought an incredible expertise that helped us plan in advance to understand what photos we wanted and the best way to make them happen. She was also so helpful on the actual days, helping us stay on track and helping us manage our larger wedding party. We had so many guests and bridal party members complement us on her professionalism, kindness, and then once they saw her photos later, her incredible talent. We deeply, deeply cherish the many photos Madeleine captured of our special days -- from the posed, beautiful portraits to the candids, to the hidden moments... we can't stop sharing them and it's impossible to pick a favorite! I would work with Madeleine again in a heartbeat and would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone. She is an incredibly talented photographer who will go above and beyond your expectations.”
Read More“Working with Madeleine was truly the highlight of our wedding planning experience. We started working with Madeleine as our engagement photographer and decided we MUST have her capture our big day. She was the kindest and most thoughtful person we worked with. By my wedding day she felt like a close family friend, and went above and beyond to both help me and make everyone in my wedding party feel comfortable. Madeleine's attention to detail and artistry are unparalleled. I do not consider myself to be particularly photogenic, and the photos she captured of my husband and I are absolutely breathtaking. We will cherish the moments she captured for the rest of our lives!”

We met her for the first time recently when she traveled to NYC to do our engagement photos and we were just blown away by her professionalism and kindness. It felt like we had known her forever and it honestly feels like we not only gained an amazing photographer but also a new friend. We had set up a sunrise photo-shoot and were all ready to go at Top of the Rock in NYC. Upon arrival, we were told that there was 0% visibility (which was sadly totally accurate and such a bummer). Madeleine quickly found us some other options in the city and we took some great shots and had a lot of fun doing it even though it wasn’t necessarily the spot we had originally planned for! My fiancé and I were thrilled with the experience and the locations, but Madeleine insisted that we track down the weather over the next few hours and see if we could go back to Top of the Rock later that day when the visibility was clearer. We quickly told her that this was totally unnecessary and way, way too generous of her to even offer! Sure enough, 4 hours later, Madeleine trekked all the way back into the city from Hoboken and brought us back up to the Top of the Rock to do another quick shoot. We were just so impressed with her completely over the top service. We received the pictures back one week later and were of course obsessed with them. Even aside from how talented she is as a photographer though, she is really just such a great person who is so passionate not only about her job, but also about her clients. She is ridiculously quick & responsive and full of ideas, suggestions and recommendations about our big day. Thank you for everything, Madeleine. We can’t wait to see you again in July! xo”
