WE'RE HERE to CRAFT PHOTOGRAPHS that FEEL alive, IMAGES GUIDED by LIGHT, ATMOSPHERE, STORY, and STYLE.
Yes, we want the scroll-stopping image. The one you'll frame. But also? The magic we love most is in the moments most people miss.
Your wedding day deserves more than just beautiful photos; it deserves imagery that feels like you. With Lavel Marie Photography, you’ll experience intentional artistry and effortless direction, allowing you to be fully present.
The Wedding EXPERIENCE
wedding photography collections
I take on a limited number of weddings each year to ensure every couple receives a thoughtful, personalized experience from the first conversation to the final delivery of their images.
With nearly two decades of experience, I approach wedding days with a calm, intuitive presence, guiding when needed, stepping back when it matters most, and anticipating moments before they unfold. My goal is for you to feel supported, present, and fully able to enjoy your day while I document it honestly and beautifully.
