MY PHILOSOPHY

I'm here to photograph those who value honesty over perfection. Love isn't perfect in and of itself, it's messy at times. It's vulnerable.. It's honest. It's raw. It's real. It's loud at times. And quiet in others. It's intimate. It brings out the real you. It challenges you. It strengthens you at times and weakens you in others. It's a plethora of emotions all at once. It's vast. I'm here to photograph that love. The love that fights for each other every day, chooses each other even when things get tough. That love deserves to be documented. Your love deserves to be documented.

CHEY + ADRIAN

Ellie Mae exceeded our expectations! Went above and beyond in every way! My husband and I have had our photos taken by several different photographers but this is by far the best experience we’ve had! From the start Ellie made sure it was a personalized experience that depicted our relationship and style. We FaceTimed prior to meeting her and she asked great questions to get to know us and vice versa and it eased any nervousness we might have had! She was personable so sweet! She had such a creative and fun approach. We left feeling like we made a new friend!

KIND WORDS

NOELLE + TIM

Ellie is a skilled photographer who went above and beyond for our special day. Not only did she help ease my anxiety about having my photo taken, she produced high quality, sensational wedding photos that I can’t stop staring at. She captured a variety of photos with intense textures and moody hues. I particularly loved the photos she choose where movement within a frame was clearly captured. It was a little windy at times and she used the element to create one of a kind shots where the trees and leaves looked like they were moving along with us. I am very happy to have photos that captured the range and depth of emotions we experienced on our wedding day.

KIND WORDS

Ellie was an absolute joy to work with! She took time and care into getting to know us to learn more about our personalities, dynamic and style prior to our wedding. She is both professional and personable. The photos from our big day turned out beautiful and we couldn't be happier with them! 12/10 would recommend Ellie!
