Working with Maddness Photography was such an amazing experience! She made me feel comfortable, confident, and so at ease in front of the camera. The direction was clear and encouraging, and the final photos turned out better than I could have imagined. I now have branding images I’m genuinely excited to use for my business. Highly recommend! 🥰

I’m so glad Chelsea accompanied her on my wedding day so we now have a new addition to the family. These two helped capture every magical moment of my wedding even when I didn’t know they were there or that a magical moment happening. I’ve only gotten a sneak peak of the photos but I’m anxiously awaiting the final reveal because I know they’re going to be beautiful!!! Thank you so much Maddy and Chelsea for being a part of my wedding 💕

As a bride who made a million decisions for her wedding and wanted the best photographer, I get it and I found her, it’s Maddy. HIRE HER NOW WHILE YOU CAN!
Maddy is truly the best and WORTH EVERY PENNY of the investment. Choosing your wedding photographer is a huge decision, you’re trusting someone to capture one of the most important days of your life. If you truly want the best, Maddy is the right choice.
She didn’t just take our photos, she brought us on an unforgettable experience. She gives amazing direction, is incredibly encouraging and attentive, and somehow captures every perfect moment without you even realizing she’s there. She made us feel comfortable, confident, and completely taken care of from beginning to end.
By the time our wedding arrived, I genuinely felt like I had made a friend. Maddy is so amazing that I didn’t even want her to feel like our photographer, I wanted her to be a guest at our wedding!
You will never regret investing in the memories of your perfect day, and you definitely won’t regret hiring Maddy. I mean, just look at these pictures! They speak for themselves. She gave us an experience and memories we will cherish forever!

Kandice Pennycuff6 reviewsiTotal number of Google reviews Kandice has written across all businesses on Google Maps, not just this one.
Obsessed is an understatement. Maddness Photography is truly next level. The first time Maddy took our photos, we were dealing with literal hurricane-force winds and couldn’t reschedule because family was in town and somehow she made it look calm, effortless, and absolutely stunning. You would never know the chaos happening behind the scenes.
She also did our daughter’s one-year photos and they were beyond AMAZING. Every single image felt like a frame-worthy memory. She captures the sweetest, most genuine moments so beautifully.
Not only is she incredibly talented, but she’s also the kindest human. She connects so naturally with kids, keeps everything fun and relaxed, and makes the entire experience feel easy. My husband, who is definitely not a “photo guy”, constantly asks when we can book her again. That alone says everything.
If you’re even considering booking her, do it. You will not regret it. You’ll want photos every year, if not multiple times a year. I promise.

Maddy was amazing. She was very responsive to every communication. She was on time and very efficient. We were having a family reunion and wanted photos done. She did so well with making sure that there were great large group photos and separate family photos. She was the best with all the kids, we had toddlers, littles and even a 3 month old. Every type/combo of photo was taken and they were all so beautiful. She did great with spontaneous fun photos especially of the kids as well as posed photos. I cannot recommend her enough and I know we will use her again in the future.
