What my clients are saying:

Marly is creative, kind, and knowledgeable about photo shoots. I recently did a photo shoot for the first time and I had so much fun! She instructed on poses that would look good and listened to music. Also, brought her own props and two outfits for the look. She had captured creative poses and beautiful look. The photo shoot is creative and love the outcome of all the pictures! I recommend moments by Marly for any events you are looking for!

Marly is fantastic! The photos she captured are so beautiful and show our personalities perfectly! She was so easy to work with and made posing easy, fun, and comfortable for us. She was great! She is funny and caring when taking photos and makes the experience as enjoyable as possible. She has such creative ideas for her shoots too- and loves to have some fun! It was such a great date night to start off with some pictures with her. We did a parking garage shoot with her and it turned out amazing! We loved so many photos, we couldn’t decide! Thank you, Marly! Can’t wait to put some of these on our Christmas cards this year!
