Welcome to the blog!

Hi! I'm Mary Sarah

 I'm a Jesus follower, mac 'n cheese lover, and travel enthusiast. I specialize in wedding, high school senior, and lifestyle photography in the Frederick, MD area but am always down to travel. I'm a mama to two, married to my high school sweetheart, and am passionate about authentically telling love stories through photography and eating as much dark chocolate as I can. Stick around awhile to view the latest love stories I've had the privilege of capturing.

Downtown Frederick Christmas Photoshoot

Tanner & Meghan’s University of Maryland Engagement Shoot

engagements

Tanner and Meghan are absolutely adorable. They are so fun, always laughing together, and just plain cute.  When we met together for our consult at Panera I instantly felt like we hit it off together, especially after Meghan and I bonded over the deliciousness that is cinnamon crunch bagels.  Since Tanner and Meghan met at […]

Rob & Katie’s Fall I Still Do Shoot {Frederick Wedding Photographer}

engagements

Anyone who knows me knows I’m not a self-proclaimed dog lover.  Brent likes to say that I have no soul, but I’m rather inclined to disagree.  Luckily for Rob and Katie I do enjoy cute little dogs (who don’t shed) and so I agreed to do a fall I Still Do shoot with Rob and […]

Chris & Ashley’s Country Engagement Shoot {Frederick Engagement Photography}

engagements

I love getting to photograph at new venues, so I was very excited when Ashley requested we do her and Chris’s engagement shoot at her father’s farm.  However, I had no idea just how gorgeous their farm would be!  As soon as Brent and I arrived we knew this was going to be a fantastic […]

Crystal & Ryan’s Frederick MD Engagement Pictures {Frederick, MD Wedding Photographer}

engagements

I couldn’t have asked for a prettier day for Crystal and Ryan’s engagement shoot.  The sun was shining and the temperature was perfect.  Crystal and Ryan are such a cute couple and Crystal was all beautiful smiles.  Even though they were a little nervous at first – which is perfectly natural – after a few minutes […]

Lori & Joe’s Downtown Frederick Engagement Shoot {Frederick MD Wedding Photographer}

engagements

 I couldn’t have asked for better weather or a nicer couple for my first engagement shoot of the year.  Lori and Joe are so sweet and are a beautiful couple.  You would never guess that between the two of them they have eight children!  We had a lot of fun laughing and joking around while […]

Ben & Rebekah’s Snowy I Still Do Shoot {Frederick, MD Wedding Photographer}

engagements

Mary Sarah and the cold do not particularly get along very well.  As such, the idea of a snow photo-shoot was born more out of a desperation to start photographing again, and less out of a desire to actually go outside.  The Sunday after Saturday’s big snow dawned a sunny and balmy 43 degrees, so […]

Jake & Jackie’s Harpers Ferry Engagement Shoot

engagements

Jake and Jackie wanted fall colors for their engagement shoot, but the weather seemed to have other ideas. After having to reschedule once with our rain date also predicting rain, we ended up switching dates again to an early Sunday morning.  After winding up in different parking lots, we finally found each other and hurried […]

Justin & Samantha’s Frederick, MD Engagement Shoot

engagements

Justin and Samantha are absolutely adorable!  Their love for each other is incredibly evident in their smiles, laughter, and overall interaction with each other.  Samantha is also one of the sweetest people I’ve met and has a knack for making Justin laugh which made my job very easy 🙂 We started our Frederick, MD engagement […]

Matt & Tara’s Salisbury University Engagement Shoot

engagements

I had the privilege of meeting Tara and Matt five years ago when they were freshmen and I was a senior at Salisbury University.  They both became involved in Cru – a Christian organization on campus – and after a few months I, along with everyone else, was so excited when they started dating.  Tara […]
