how we do it
MEET THE TEAM
"Hiring Magi and Scott was the best decision we made for our wedding day! We knew we wanted to work with Magi from the start because of her work, her attention to detail, and the way she captures everything so naturally and beautifully. The photos from our engagement session exceeded our expectations, so we knew that going with Magi would only make our big day even better! Magi is a true professional and very communicative throughout the entire wedding process, which was a huge help (seriously!), and she was also extremely accommodating to all of our needs.
During our wedding day, Magi and Scott made us feel so comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera, and they truly listened to what was most important to us. When we received our wedding photos back, we were left speechless at how stunning each and every picture came out! Every photo was breathtaking and told the story of our wedding – from start to finish – flawlessly! We are still in awe of their magical work. It truly is an art, and they are oh so wonderful at it! We are so LUCKY and GRATEFUL that we will have these perfect, treasured photos for the rest of our lives. Thank you, thank you a million times. We could not be happier!" -Rachel & Marc

"Having a great photographer was at the top of our list. we hired Magdalena Studios and we were blown away. The photographers had so many great ideas, and were calm and sincere which put us at ease. We got our photos back so quickly, and each one looks like it could be on a cover of a magazine. we couldn't be happier we chose Magdalena Studios."
