Hi, I’m Mary Sarah — a Maryland wedding photographer drawn to estate venues, golden hour light, and celebrations that feel deeply personal. I document timeless, emotion-filled weddings in Frederick, Maryland and throughout the DMV, creating images that feel natural, romantic, and true to each couple. I’m a wife, mama, and Jesus follower who loves dark chocolate and meaningful conversation — and I believe wedding days should feel joyful, calm, and beautifully lived-in. I’m so glad you’re here.
They say rain on your wedding day is good luck. But hurricanes? Not so much! As soon as I heard a potential hurricane was predicted for Taylar’s wedding, I called her up immediately and we discussed contingency plans for her Glen Ellen Farm wedding pictures in case the worst did happen. She was doing her […]

Brent and I feel so blessed to have been able to photograph Andrew & Kaitlin’s beautiful Mount St. Mary’s wedding day. We were a little nervous when we arrived at the Chapel of the Immaculate Conception and it was literally raining sideways, but thankfully the rain stopped by the time the wedding ceremony was over […]

Brent and I had been looking forward to this Linganore Winecellars wedding for awhile now. Hailey and Gage are so relaxed and easy going together and won forever points after they gave me cake pops and Taco Bell at their engagement shoot! I also love the venue of Linganore Winecellars and couldn’t wait to capture gorgeous […]

For all of Hailey’s friends: if Hailey ever offers to have you join for her a picnic, you better go to that picnic because it’s going to be freakin amazing! When Hailey mentioned she was going to pick up a blanket and maybe a cupcake or two, I certainly wasn’t expecting a beautifully styled picnic […]

Jeff & Danielle’s beautiful Frederick, Maryland country wedding was as personal as they come. Danielle got ready in what was soon to be her bedroom, her and Jeff shared vows in the front lawn of Jeff’s home, and they celebrated their reception at a nearby barn on Jeff’s property. I had the privilege of photographing […]

A donut cake, first glance, beautiful pastel bridesmaid dresses, and scientific flasks for vases made for one beautiful and unique spring Morningside Inn wedding! Gregory and Gen met through OK Cupid and describe their first date as a “comedy of errors.” Despite that, Genevieve found herself liking Greg so much she didn’t want the night […]

I can’t believe it’s been almost two years since I went to Paris, France and did a week-long photography workshop with Scott Robert Lim. I also can’t believe it’s taken me this long to blog some of my photoshoots from there! I’m blaming it on the baby, but let’s be real, Savannah’s 14 months old […]

We’re kicking off the 2018 wedding season with a bang! Check out this beautiful winter Holly Hills Country Club wedding! For a January wedding, Tarek & Elizabeth couldn’t have asked for better weather (okay, maybe a little less wind, but it’s hard to complain when the temperature was in the fifties!). I loved their neutral […]
