Celebrating Love

THE WEDDING EXPERIENCE

I understand the significance of your wedding day and the importance of creating lasting memories. My approach to photography is rooted in building authentic connections with my clients, allowing me to capture the genuine moments that reflect your unique love story. To me, a photo is more than just looking at the camera and smiling. A photo should capture the raw joy and emotion of your day. 

From the laughter and tears to the stolen glances and heartfelt embraces, I strive to document the essence of your wedding day in a way that feels true to you.

Initial inquiry 

It's an honor to be considered as your wedding photographer! After inquiring on my contact form, I will send over more pricing and information. I will also ask a few questions to get a feel for what your dream wedding day entails. I'm always happy to schedule a phone call to chat!

01.

Securing your date

Once you decide to move forward with booking, I will send over a proposal containing your contract and an invoice for your 25% retainer. Once the proposal is complete, you're booked!

02.

Your Engagement session

Once your date is secured, we can begin planning your engagement session! Not only are engagement sessions super fun, it's also a great opportunity for us to get to know each other. You can showcase your personalities in a more casual setting that isn't as high stress. I can get a feel for how you interact as a couple and see what poses work best for you.

03.

planning Questionnaire

Around 2-3 months before the big day, I will send over a planning questionnaire. Using your answers to this questionnaire, I can help plan our photography timeline, draft your family portrait list, and overall best serve you on your special day. 

04.

Wedding Day!

It's finally your big day! I will be there with you throughout the day to capture the small moments, big moments, and everything in between. Let's get you married! 

05.

I will work together with you throughout the process to help craft your day-of photography timeline, family portrait list, and overall help execute your vision of the day.  All of my wedding packages include an engagement session and second photographer for the full day.

Frequently Asked Questions

next question
previous question

Do you travel?

I love to travel! My husband and I got married in Savannah, GA so I definitely love a destination wedding. If you're interested in hiring me for travel, please contact me for a custom quote.

01.

How many images will we receive?

The number of images you will receive in your final gallery will vary based on your hourly coverage, size of wedding party, length of reception, etc. On average I deliver around 100-150 images per hour of coverage. 

02.

How long will it take to receive our gallery?

I deliver previews the week after your wedding. You can expect your full wedding gallery 8-10 weeks after your wedding date.

03.

Can we swap out our engagement session?

Engagement sessions are so important! Engagement sessions make wedding days flow more efficiently when you are already comfortable with me and how I pose. I also get a chance to know you and how to best make you feel comfortable in front of the camera. I highly recommend we keep your engagement session! 

04.

How do we book?

To reserve your wedding date, we’ll need a signed contract and a 25% non-refundable retainer. The remaining balance will be due 2 weeks before the wedding. Payment plans are also available upon request. Just let me know what package you're interested in and I will email you a booking proposal that can be completed online.

05.

Bailey, bride

When you’re planning a wedding - book Mary Pugh. She is more than just a photographer. She was my hype woman, helped me get into my wedding dress for bridal portraits, vision creator, and so much more! Mary is amazing to work with, and her work speaks larger than words. We have received so many compliments, most of which that rave about how quickly we got our previews back and the pure talent she has. I could write a book about Mary, but just BOOK HER!
