MEET Molly

You're Here!!! YAY! I'm so glad you are! A little about me...I am a preservation artist; a love archivist if you will. Having grown up in a family bursting with creators in a small, Midwestern town, I feel fortunate to have been encouraged to design and thrive in the world of fine art with purpose. When visiting my family, you'll find us gathered round, sipping our beverage of choice: a vodka gimlet (our family recipe is the best!)

As a new bride myself and after years of education, including degrees in design and a Masters in Fine Art Photography, I place great value in being your wedding photographer and creating the tangible memories of your most special day as of yet. As a creative, I draw inspiration from my experience and travels to help reflect your perfect day. So whether you have a Santa Barbara Wedding or a Destination Wedding, I'm happy to walk alongside you and create an authentic representation of you!

It excites me to compose and curate your wedding day through imagery that will last the years to come and create coffee table conversations with your generations to follow. Those are the moments I cherish most; the moments rifling through old photographs reliving each day captured on film. With love, loyalty and style…my purpose is to preserve those moments for you and those you love.

THINGS THAT MAKEme smile....

Molly's magnificent personality sets a fun and relaxing atmosphere, while her artistic eye and professionalism create a beautiful work of art. I was a tad nervous throughout our day but she made us feel at ease and comfortable to be ourselves. She captured our personalities and tender moments that we will be able to reflect on for years to come. Molly has a very special gift and I am honored to call her my friend. Thank you for sharing your talents with us.

Molly is truly a gem in the wedding and photography industries. Not only does she capture every detail with amazing precision, but also she is fun and exciting to work with which brings out the best in her clients. We recently collaborated on a photo shoot together, and it was like she could read my mind. She was able to create the perfect mood through her direction and blew everyone away with the images she produced!
Jaime, Wild Heart Events

Molly has a real eye for detail and a great ability to capture atmospheres. She has a lovely way of asking questions about the event that she is to photograph, making it personalized and then she integrates that knowledge into how she photographs, making sure to capture the essence of the moment and what was before that moment. Her warmth and liveliness make it a pleasure to be photographed by her, even if you are camera-shy. She was really non-intrusive during our wedding day and was very much part of our big day in Switzerland. The results are absolutely breath taking and more than we could ever have hoped for or imagined.

From the initial email to see if her schedule was open for our wedding to our continued communication around our wedding photos I could not have imagined a more painless and enjoyable situation. We knew our photographer would provide the one thing that would go beyond our wedding day- our photos and memories of the day. Molly beyond stepped up to the plate and exceeded our expectations. On the big day she commanded the show and shuffled people where needed which removed a mountain of stress off my shoulders. Molly's professional and demanding presence let me relax as I knew she'd get the job done, and I didn't have to yell for any stray aunts . During the getting ready time, ceremony and reception Molly and her crew were restless. They were constantly on their feet working to not let a single moment go un-captured. I could keep going on about Molly and how wonderful she is; prompt, responsible, organized, friendly, stress free, helpful, etc. Working with Molly will be one of the best choices (you are about to make hundreds, get excited!) you and your fiancé make!

To date, our engagement and wedding have been the most important events in our lives and for 2 people that are camera-shy, she really knew how to capture each special moment! I would recommend Molly for Engagement Shoots, Wedding photography and just about any other setting that requires a special touch that only she can give!

Always a pleasure to work with Molly! Her photography is beautiful and I cannot get enough of her contagious upbeat personality. Photographers share in some of the most intimate moments of your special day, and it's so important to have a comfortable relationship with them. Having worked with many in the industry, I still look forward to any opportunity to shoot with Molly. She delivers beautiful images every time and turns photos around promptly. You are in great hands with her!
Leslie, Encore Event Design

Wow Molly! What can I say? The pictures are gorgeous! It is so important to find a photographer who can take charge and control a group and get you the images you want. Molly did all that. Love her and would highly recommend.

Having known Molly for over a decade, I have watched her transition throughout her career into an experienced photographer. She's always had the innate ability to see the beauty in any situation, which is why she is an AMAZING photographer (and friend:) Having our engagement session in San Diego with Molly was beyond what we had expected. She had so many original and unique ideas, while still capturing the essence of our relationship. We are so excited that we were able to invest in Molly for our wedding this May in France!! We cannot wait to have her not only be a part of our special day but to also capture all of the great memories that will be made!
Megan + Julien

Molly they are seriously so amazing!!! Every time I look at them I find a new favorite! I am so happy with them all. Thank you so much for all of your work, they all turned out perfect!

I can't possibly praise Molly enough! Throughout our engagement, Molly worked endlessly to make sure that my husband and I were receiving the photography and entire experience that we wanted. She went above and beyond to meet, even exceed, our wishes. She was helpful, caring, professional, and fun on the day of our wedding. Within a week after the wedding, Molly had edited photos available to view online. I can honestly say that she captured our wedding, and all the emotions involved, with photos that are breathtaking. She had my husband and our family, as well as I in tears all over again as we viewed some of our most special moments from the day. I look forward to re-living our wedding day through her photos for many years to come. Molly + Co comes highly recommended by this newlywed couple! =) Thank you, Molly!
