I was born and raised in Southeastern Canada and travelled abroad and to my surprise met and fell in love with an American. We now happily call Virginia home with our three children and our rescue pup, Rugby who likes to think of herself as my shadow and follows me everywhere.

"I can not say enough about how wonderful it was to work with Malie.
Our photos are more beautiful that I could have imagined possible.

We love, love, love her!"

"Our photos are more beautiful than we could have ever imagined..."
Malie was an absolute delight to work with, her charisma instantly convinced me to hire her. My husband hates taking photos but Malie had him smiling widely throughout our engagement and our wedding photos. She was organized and highly professional. She was very easy to communicate with and you can clearly see that she has years of experience photographing weddings and couples. Taking all the photos on our wedding day was draining but she made the process joyful and light-hearted. We laughed a lot. Ultimately, our photos are incredibly GORGEOUS. There are so many incredible photos we’re overwhelmed! My family is so grateful to have the day captured so beautifully. I feel like I found the perfect photographer for our wedding and I’m so grateful.

"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!!!

"WE adore OUR PHOTOS!"
If you happen to cross by the stunning + amazing work of Marie Violet Photography, then I cannot recommend her enough. From our initial conversations, I knew Malie had to document our big wedding day. Her quality of work, her fun personality, as well as how she makes you feel your best in front of the camera- it has been a true joy to work with her. When we first met for our engagement photos, I felt like we had known her for years! (including steaming my dress in her hotel bathroom before our photoshoot!). Our engagement photos were incredible- as well as the overall experience. We looked like supermodels! She knew exactly the look and vibe we were going for and nailed it! All of our family and friends are obsessed with our photos! They are honestly draw-dropping gorgeous. We are so excited for our wedding day and cannot wait to work with Malie again. I know those photos will be amazing too. 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!

"Malie was not only my boudoir photographer but also my wedding photographer and I had this session as a gift to be soon to be husband on our wedding night. She made me feel so comfortable in front of the camera. I've never felt more beautiful. We had a wonderful time together and both my boudoir and wedding images turned out absolutely beautiful. She has an eye for detail and captures the most stunning images."
Elizabeth & Justin
"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!"
