Pennsylvania wedding photographer
Picture this...you just got engaged to the love of your life (YAY!!! Congrats!!!). You’ve picked the date, the venue, have somewhat of an idea of what you want to wear, and have your squad all in place. Sound familiar?
Now, who will be your eyes throughout the day? These people are going to be the keeper of some of your most treasured moments, so they have to be people you can trust, right? People you’re confident can handle anything that pops up with grace and has a demeanor that allows you to just live in the moment.
Well, that’s where we come in! If you are in need of a with the knowledge, skills, and personality to help make your wedding day unforgettable, then you are in the right place, friends!
We entered into the business of documenting true love when two incredible people (and now dear friends) got engaged and wanted US to photograph their wedding! We had never shot a wedding at that point and were nervous to say the least, but Jake & Brittany gave us the little nudge we needed to take our business to the next level just three years ago. When we decided to shoot this wedding, we made a pact that weddings would not be our main photography focus, and that we would stick to portraits as our area of expertise... but you guys... we fell in love with love! We just can't say no, and our main goal in our five year plan is to book more amazing luxury weddings for couples who are head over heels in love with one another. We want to help each couple start their marital journey with joyful memories they can enjoy for anniversaries to come!
The relationships and experiences that we’ve cultivated with our couples last well beyond the wedding day, and, in our humble opinion, that’s exactly how it should be!
We’re excited for you to keep scrolling down to learn more about what being an MWP bride and/or groom truly means, and how we can provide you with a one-of-a-kind experience that celebrates the unique love you and your partner have for each other. Because as we say here at MaeWood, “Love is love is love. And it is always worth celebrating.”
Our process is not a one size fits all model so before you ever choose our team to capture your wedding day, we want to make sure we are the perfect fit for your exclusive services. We get to know each of our brides and grooms, so that we can understand their love, dreams, and desires for their wedding day. The better we get to know each other, the better we can be at not only serving you, but make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, capture your own story, not everyone else's, and anticipate the electric moments throughout your day.
On your wedding day, you will spend more time with your photographers than your spouse, so we want to make sure we are the perfect fit for you!
Start off by filling out the contact form so we are one step closer to your dream wedding day!

testimonials
"When is the last time you fell in love with a vendor?"
When is the last time you fell in love with a vendor? From the first interview we had with Jes & Meg, we knew that we had found our photographers. Their energy, confidence, and professionalism are unmatched by anything I have ever seen. They blew us away with their ability to adapt to weather, venue, and wardrobe issues & deliver images that far exceeded expectation. They double as wedding coordinators helping make sure that we weren't forgetting things that could detract from our big day. Then, the big day arrived. Jes and Meg made everything SO(!) FUN(!) - the stress of the day melted away and everyone had a great time. With regard to delivery, timeliness, and issues.. everything came early, everything exceeded expectation, and we had ZERO issues.
testimonials
"i can't imagine having any other photographers"
"We cannot say enough about Jes and Meg. From the moment they signed on, they not only made planning a breeze (super organized) but made the entire experience fun and a dream. They were extremely professional, accommodating and super fun - oh and they are also super talented. Photos were the most important part of our wedding and I can't imagine having any other photographers there. They captured our vision exactly and I am happy to call them my friends. We will definitely be using them for photos in the future. 5++++++ stars."
testimonials
"what is crazy is that i can't even put together words at the moment... this just means the world to our family..."
Words like thoughtful, exceedingly talented, creative, endearing, passionate, sensitive, meticulously organized, charming, compassionate, brilliant and gifted all seem to fall just a bit short when it comes to Jes. From the first moment we spoke on the phone I knew I found someone very special and gifted. To this
day, I think Jes was put in our path as a reward for some of the chaos and trying times we found
ourselves in along the way. It's so rare to find a person that is so naturally selfless and has such a
beautiful heart.

All About the
couple
You believe in heirlooms and the quality of an unparalleled experience. You are willing to invest in the finer things. You appreciate a classic style and a little blush for your wedding day but don't mind throwing on a pair of torn jeans and a tank to get the job done. You care more about celebrating your love and capturing the moments then the stress of planning the perfect day. You are confident, passionate & so in love you can't keep your hands off each other. You laugh more often than not and you are always down for a new adventure as long as it is together. You each stand alone but also perfectly compliment each other. You are loyal to your family and friends, but most importantly to your hearts. Oh, and... you love hugs!
