Beautiful, fine art wedding and boudoir photography for the modern and wildly romantic
Serving Virginia & the Mid Atlantic.
My wedding style is a beautiful blend of everything I have learned over the last 12+ years in the industry. Understated elegance, deeply romantic imagery with a refined art aesthetic that is greatly influenced by my love of Vogue and high fashion editorials.
Behind the lens, I create soulful, tender, and evocative imagery that captures your joyful and spontaneous moments on your most precious day. These images are the beginning of your blossoming legacy together as a couple. Documenting your day with a timeless, classic approach that ensures your heirloom imagery stands the test of time and still looks as beautiful today as it will decades beyond.
I was born and raised near Niagara Falls, Ontario Canada. I have a deep love of travel, family, and making legendary Mojitos.

Malie and her husband were absolutely phenomenal! I am so blessed that they shared and captured our wedding day experience! Malie is a joy to work with, she is so lovely, friendly and accommodating. I truly felt at ease with her. My husband and I had our memories snapped in a beautiful collage of photos, I am so impressed. While we are very simple and down-to-earth people, our photos look editorial and magnificent Marie Violet Photography was recommended to me by a very close friend and the stars were aligned...Malie was (unbelievably!) available to capture our wedding day. I honestly believe this was fate as I don't think our day could have been captured any more perfectly. I am so excited to have her capture our future memories beyond just our wedding! Her photos are beautiful, timeless, and will bring a smile to your face!

Malie is both a wonderful photographer and person. I cannot recommend her enough. From our initial FaceTime date, I knew Malie had to document and capture our big day. Her quality work, positive and fun personality, as well as ensuring you feel your best in front of the camera, it has been a true joy to work with Malie. When we met for the first time for our engagement photos, it felt like we had known her for years (including steaming my dress in her hotel bathroom).Our engagement photos were incredible- as well as the overall experience. We looked like models (naturally a bit silly and awkward and you would never know). She knew exactly the look and vibe we were going for and nailed it! All of our family and friends are also obsessed with our photos! They are honestly draw-dropping gorgeous. Malie is so passionate about her craft. It comes across when speaking with her and watching her work. This passion is reflected in her keenness and attention to detail, as well as how much fun she has when working with you!

We love our engagement shoot photos, dramatic, powerful, and editorial style, but we adore our entire wedding and reception collection (soft, romantic, refined art style) just as much!
We had a pretty intricate outdoor Hindu wedding ceremony and a reception later in the evening, and Malie managed to capture it all! If you are concerned about hiring a wedding photographer who can manage the details of an Indian wedding, Malie has got you covered. She captured every detail of our South Indian ceremony, from the toe rings to the seven steps, with ease and expertise. I gave her an extensive shot list before the wedding (because she has an incredibly organized system to ensure you get every shot you're looking for!)
One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was hiring Malie! She went the extra mile for us in so many ways, and we are so grateful! Thanks for a beautiful Marie Violet experience.

"Our photos are more beautiful than we could have ever imagined..."
MALIE IS AN ABSOLUTE DREAM TO WORK WITH! MY PHOTOS ARE STUNNING. THEY LOOK LIKE THEY COULD LINE THE PAGES OF A MAGAZINE. THE MOMENT I SAW HER WORK ON HER WEBSITE I KNEW SHE WOULD BE PERFECT FOR MY WEDDING DAY. HER PHOTOS ARE EDITORIAL, ROMANTIC, ELEGANT, AND TRULY A WORK OF ART. I CAN’T RECOMMEND HER ENOUGH!
I DID NOT HAVE A TYPICAL WEDDING. WE DID AN AMERICAN STYLE CEREMONY THEN AN INDIAN WEDDING AND RECEPTION IN THE SAME DAY, AT 3 DIFFERENT LOCATIONS. ALTHOUGH IT WAS A 15 HOUR DAY, MALIE WAS SO PROFESSIONAL, PREPARED, AND EASY TO WORK WITH. SHE VIRTUALLY MET WITH ME COUNTLESS TIMES PRIOR TO THE CEREMONY AND DEVELOPED A WEDDING DAY TIMELINE I COULD SHARE WITH MY OTHER VENDORS AND FAMILY. IT WAS A HIGH STRESS OCCASION AND SHE WAS SPECTACULAR! I HAD SO MANY FAMILY MEMBERS AND GUESTS APPROACH ME TO TELL ME HOW WONDERFUL SHE WAS! I WAS SO BLESSED TO HAVE HER THERE THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE PROCESS.
FURTHERMORE, MALIE WILL GO ABOVE AND BEYOND TO MAKE SURE YOU CHERISH YOUR PHOTOS FOREVER. SHE DISCUSSED THE WEDDING VISION WITH ME MANY TIMES AND GOT TO KNOW ME AND MY HUSBAND PERSONALLY TO KNOW WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR. NOT TO MENTION, I AM THE BIGGEST CRITIC WHEN IT COMES TO PHOTOGRAPHY. I HAD A SPECIFIC VISION FOR LIGHTING AND DETAIL. MALIE WAS MORE THAN HAPPY TO OBLIGE EVERY REQUEST I HAD AND WAS VERY PATIENT WITH ME. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MALIE, SHE’S EXCEPTIONAL!

"OUR photos are gorgeous!"
Malie was absolutely incredible to work with. We've received so many compliments on the fine art quality of our wedding photos. They are utterly beautiful in every way. I’m so happy I didn’t settle for another photographer and Malie was available for our day. Her personality is friendly and bubbly and she makes everyone laugh and feel at ease in front of the camera, especially for a couple that has never had professional photos prior to our engagement session. Do yourself a favor and hire Marie Violet Photography for your wedding day, you will not regret it. She's amazing! We adore our photos!!!
MEREDITH & NICO
"WE adore OUR wedding PHOTOS!"
Malie was a pleasure to work with, and I would recommend her to all of my friends and family for their future wedding needs!
She had many unique ideas for our engagement shoot, and the photos look as if they were a page in Vogue Magazine. Our wedding photos are stunning and timeless, just as I hoped for my wedding day. I love looking at them over and over to relive the magical day. Malie helped us put together our wedding day timeline, and not only was this extremely helpful, but it was also gorgeous!
Marie Violet is for you if you are looking for elegant, timeless, and romantic photos!

"I've never felt more beautiful."
"I cannot even put into words how much I loved Marie Violet Photography for our wedding. When we first met, we chatted with Malie her studio for over an hour. It was like we had known her for years! Our photos are beautiful + flawless (and just to add she was very prompt with getting them back to us). She wasn't just a photographer, she treats you like a friend and we had the most amazing time with her.
We are forever grateful for the amazing photos we will have for the rest of our lives!"
