I'm a Boise family photographer. As a hopeless romantic, I swoon over handwritten letters, journals, books, polaroids, printed photos and rom coms. I'm a Mom to 3 of the best kids ever and married to the love of my life and best friend. He is my biggest supporter-he loves going location scouting with me to help find the best scenic spots for my clients and turning them into date nights or family nights.

Capturing stories through photos is a must for me, and I feel a need to capture it all! I love a good adventure but I also love a movie night in or binge watching a good show. If I’m not reading, editing photos, running around with my kids, watching movies or planning an adventure with my family, you’ll find me planning what to add next to my garden. I love to grow lots and lots of flowers, pumpkins and veggies.

I love helping moms see or remember how important and beautiful they are in their world and how beautiful they really are. Your story and memories need to be preserved and shared for future generations to come. Time goes by way too fast, so let's capture it. Your love, your world, it is magical and wonderful whatever season of life it is you are in.

I want to be there to give you memories to look back on, they are SO SO special. I want you in that shot with your kids, I want to steal you away for some pictures of just you and your person, because that is where it all began, and I want you to forget the camera is even there. Just be with your people. They are the most important part of the session. Be prepared for me to shed a tear when I capture the perfect shot or from laughing too hard. What are you waiting for?? Let’s document that incredible life and become best friends!!!

Hopeless romantic chasing the moments that make your heart skip a beat

Sarai Fink

Her calming presence but yet her hype girl energy is exactly what I needed to feel at ease and confident in front of the camera. A gallery with maddy is a gallery filled with so many WOW moments and pictures I still cry over and will cherish forever.  Already dreaming of another session!

"Working With Maddy is a dream!"

Leslie Stranski

"She has an ease about her that makes you feel relaxed and makes you feel comfortable being who you are! Maddy is so engaging with us that it doesn't feel like a photoshoot, just casual, candid, and amazing pictures. The photos are priceless!"

"Maddy works her magic every time."

Julia pineda

All I wanted was good pictures, but she gave me REAL pictures, full of life and love. I love having a tangible documented memory of who we all are now, and I would hire her again in a heartbeat for family photos or important events in the future! Her work is just that amazing!"  

"...she gave me REAl pictures full of life and love."

Santanna kaiserman

Maddy has been capturing my family for years which has included yearly family sessions, a pregnancy announcement, newborns, and a birth story. Maddy has such a calming presence and is so encouraging that even my type A personality can relax during pictures. Plus the boys in my family are no longer grumpy over family pictures. We owe all this to Maddy!

I'm your girl if you want memories printed out for your home so you can look back on these days, preserved, and captured in more ways than just a click of a button. Among the chaos, the laughs, the tears, the sun-kissed noses, and the wild hair, I'm here to capture you authentically. I want to tell the story of this moment of your life. Every season is brief, delicate, untidy, and beautiful—exhausting yet beautiful. My goal is to capture you in your truest form for a moment in time. As a Mom myself, I know how easy it is to take the photos, but not be in them. I believe its so important to be in them as well.

“Taking pictures is savoring life intensely, every hundredth of a second.”

Let’s create a love letter out of photographs and stories 

I want you to see this beautiful life you are creating and the incredible people in it who love you so fiercely. I know the days feel long but the years feel short, so you want so badly to hold on to all the little mundane things of your day. The little moments that make up your day. The little smiles, the missing teeth, the wild hair, the laughter, the hand holding, the squeezing the breath out of you hugs, the dancing, the feet that all of a sudden grow too quickly.

I want you to fall in love with your life again when your gallery is delivered. These are more than photos, these are your memories and tell the story of you. Let me help you capture the moments.
