Taylor + Sven

Marissa is AMAZING!!! She shot our wedding about a week ago and we cannot put into words how much we loved having her there. She gave us a sneak peak within a couple of days and her pictures are AMAZING, to say the least! She made the day so much fun and easy for us and really we cannot explain how great she is. HIGHLY recommend for any of your photography needs. WE ABSOLUTELY LOVE MARISSA!

Anna + Katie

Marissa makes her photography sessions seem like you are simply hanging out with a friend. She provides you with comfort, direction, and confidence to look your best for whatever occasion you are celebrating. Her kindness makes you want to take photos with your loved one (coming from someone who is often shy in front of a lens). We will always book Marissa for future occasions. She is an Asheville gem.

Morgan + Nick

When we were deciding who to hire to capture our wedding day, we had many different factors to consider. We talked about experience, pricing and portfolios of course but most importantly, we wanted someone who is passionate about what they do and passionate about love. Marissa was the PERFECT choice for us! Her work truly speaks for itself - With an incredible eye for beauty and a genuine love for people, Marissa exceeds all expectations. Her fun spirit makes for a day full of laughter and wonderful memories!

I've been where you are before


I know what it feels like to be in your shoes. I've planned an elopement, got married, hired vendors... I know what it feels like.


There are some things I do regret spending money on but the one thing I do not is Photo + Video.


Photography + Videography is the only tAngible thing that will live on from your wedding day. You'll be able to relive those moments over and over for years to come. Photo + video is not the service you want to be budget friendly with.

Trust me, there are other ways to cut costs. But you will not regret spending money on photo + video. You will get so much value out of hiring me as your photographer + videographer.
