digital and film engagement and wedding photography for east coast couples
TIMELESS & CANDID imagery for couples who love the moment more than the shot list.
Your wedding day is a collection of fleeting, irreplaceable moments. I believe in capturing these moments exactly as they happen— naturally, beautifully, and full of life— so you can experience them, in the moment.
In a world full of beautiful images, simply “pretty” is not enough. Beyond first glance, I strive for photos that are beautiful in story, in memory, and in legacy. Photos with depth, narrative, emotion, and memories, and not just “for the gram.”
My photography style is a mix of modern portraiture and timeless documentary storytelling—where carefully curated images blend seamlessly with the candid, unscripted moments that make your wedding day uniquely yours.
With an eye for movement, color, and emotion, I strive to create images that feel timeless but never stiff, artistic but never forced. No awkward posing, no forced smiles—just you, your people, and the energy of the celebration, preserved forever.
Effortless, Candid, & Colorful Wedding Photography
"Her ability to capture each subject in their most genuine self is a true gift"
– hilary + saul
“Molly is beyond wonderful.
A very calming, sweet presence on your wedding day. So professional, but also warm and happy. We had so much fun working with her and her team."
– christine + noah
“Molly gave the perfect amount of direction, telling us what to do with our hands and finding the best lighting for us when we're doing traditional posed photos, but then allowing us to just move and talk with each other to capture the moments.”
Every couple is different, and so is my approach. I take the time to understand your priorities so that your photos & videos truly reflect you.

"She was so great about making my fiancé and I feel comfortable, which helped the pictures come out so natural and authentic. She captured so many genuine laughs and smiles. The pictures are beautiful and I’ll treasure them! Thank you so much Molly, you are so talented.”

KIND WORDS
- Hannah + Nate
"She captured our intimate winter wedding in a way I couldn’t have even dreamed of and she is the most delightful person to do so. I couldn’t recommend her enough for wedding, engagement, small and big life events and everything in between. Her creative style, ability to make ANYONE feel comfortable in the camera, professionalism, and her ability to capture each subject in their most genuine self is a true gift. This girl is amazing, I 100/10 recommend.”
"The most incredible photographer and videographer I have ever met."
from past clients
KIND WORDS
- Sam + Joe
"She was very communicative and professional the whole time. She took what we wanted into account to the point of checking what percentage of black and white photos we were looking for. She seemed really invested in us. On the day of the wedding she was hopping around all over to get the best shots. I couldn’t be happier with the results."
“Molly was FANTASTIC from start to finish."

QUESTIONS
Do you offer Photo and Video Bundled Packages?
About 90% of couples book me with my full team for photography and videography services. Our most popular photo & video bundle includes full wedding day coverage (8+ hours), 2 photographers, 2 videographers, 1000+ edited images in a personal online gallery, a creative highlight video, a full ceremony video, and an engagement session. Many couples also add film photography, Super 8 video, and wedding weekend coverage (welcome party, etc.). The average investment for a bundled photo and video collection is $12K.
Do you work with a second shooter?
Most collections do include a second photographer, which can be incredibly beneficial especially for larger guest counts or weddings with multiple locations. I love to work with another creative eye from my small team of associates & assistants. That being said, it's not always necessary or priority to have a second shooter, and it's by no means mandatory.
Do you offer engagement sessions?
YES! Engagement photoshoots are the perfect opportunity for us to get to know each other and for you to get comfortable with the camera before wedding day. Most of our wedding photography packages include a complimentary engagement session for this reason. Standard photography sessions for couples without a wedding package are also available starting at $500, with personalized planning & styling included.
Where are you located?
Molly Mia Photography is based in Eastern Connecticut, serving all of New England and wherever love takes us. Molly has traveled to destination weddings from Maine to Mexico, and in 2025 couples are taking her to Aruba, Jekyll Island, and all over the East Coast.
How many photos will we get?
On average, I curate 80-100 images per hour of photography coverage, to be individually hand-edited and delivered in an online gallery for unlimited high-resolution downloads (never watermarked).
When will we get our edited photos?
I believe your photos should be artfully edited with intention, and never rushed or automated with AI. My turnaround time for engagement and portrait sessions average 2 to 3 weeks. Turnaround time for wedding galleries will be 8 to 12 weeks.
Will you photoshop my ___ ?
I prefer a natural, unretouched look for all images. The edits I make are subtle tweaks to color and exposure, ensuring your photos remain clean, timeless, and true to your celebration. I believe people are most beautiful when they are authentically them, and nothing shines brighter than a genuine smile. My photography services do not include Photoshopping.
