Marit, your vision for this day is so beautiful.
More than coverage — a photography experience built around the two of you.
Refined, elegant, romantic with edge. Moody Old Hollywood. Castle Green was practically made for that vision. It is one of the most architecturally distinctive venues in Southern California — all that ornate detail, the warm stone, the dramatic arches — and it photographs in a way that feels genuinely cinematic. October is a particularly magical time there, when the autumn light turns golden and long and the whole property feels like a film set.
Everything you described — the calla lilies, the deep plum and garden green, the live band, the intimate feel without a traditional bridal party — tells me this day is going to be full of real moments and genuine emotion. That is exactly what I am drawn to and what I love to document.
I've put together this proposal with the full scope of your day in mind. Nine hours of coverage gives us room for everything — the quiet preparations, the ceremony, portraits in those incredible Castle Green interiors and gardens, your guests, and deep into the reception with the band. Nothing rushed, nothing missed.
Warmly, Maggie
What Our Couples Say.
"I had no doubt that our photos were going to be beautiful and perfect. The minute she arrived at the venue I felt completely confident in her and her team — so prepared, so organized, every single shot we requested."
The Experience.
Working together is about more than beautiful photographs. It's about feeling completely taken care of throughout the process.
Before your wedding, we'll plan your photography timeline together, talk through family photographs, traditions, and the moments most important to you, so you can walk into the day knowing everything has been thoughtfully considered.
On the wedding day, I'll guide you when you need direction and step back when you don't. You'll never be left wondering what to do in front of the camera, but you also won't spend your wedding feeling like you're in a photoshoot.
My approach allows you to be fully present with the people you love while I document the celebration as it naturally unfolds. The portraits you'll frame, the traditions you'll pass down, and the moments you didn't even realize were happening.
You enjoy your wedding. I'll make sure you remember it.
Your final gallery is carefully edited and curated to tell the complete story of the day, delivered in a private online gallery ready to relive, share, print, and preserve.
