About Madi Ellis Photography

Madi Ellis Photography

Photographer

*****The best way to reach me is to fill out the inquiry form on my website!***** As a documentary-style photographer, I love to emphasize connection, texture, and authentic emotion. Being a former actor who found a deep love and passion for wedding photography, I'm most drawn to the art of storytelling while creating honest and original work. I strive to make my images fully represent my couples in every way possible. I'm goofy, fun, and always create a deep connection with my couples to ensure their big day is captured with passion + care.

Being a photojournalist means that my goal is to capture each scene as it unfolds. I've been able to enhance my craft by also being a concert photographer, which by nature is the type of photography where *very little* is posed. I'm used to funky lighting situations, weird angles, and capturing those STELLAR candids!

    I cannot express my gratitude enough for our amazing wedding photographer, Madi! From start to finish, she made our special day feel so graceful and effortless. Leading up to the wedding, I was a bundle of nerves, but Madi’s calming presence instantly put me, my wedding party, and our families at ease. She felt more like a friend tagging along than just a photographer, seamlessly blending into the celebration. Her warmth, friendliness, professionalism, and incredible organization truly shone through. The humor she brought added to the incredible vibe of the day, making everything feel relaxed and joyful. Now, let’s talk about the photos—wow! Each image is breathtaking and perfectly captures the essence of our day. Madi has an incredible talent for finding the most beautiful moments, from candid laughter to the most heartfelt glances. Every shot tells a story, preserving the joy and love we felt throughout the day. The colors are vibrant, the emotions are palpable, and the details are captured beautifully. I genuinely can’t thank Madi enough for the stunning memories she created for us. I wish for everyone to have a Madi by their side on their wedding day! If you’re looking for a photographer who not only delivers stunning images but also enhances the overall experience, look no further. Madi is simply the best, and we are so grateful to have had her as part of our celebration!

    We are so happy we chose to work with Madi for our wedding photos and was one of best decisions we made. We immediately liked her on the first call as she was just easy to talk to and really took an interest in learning about our story. We could tell she had amazing organization skills, and her photography was exactly what we were looking for when it came to our wedding. She was friendly and personable and provided easy communication. She was very flexible, tolerated our need to bring our dogs into both the wedding and the engagement photos, and made us comfortable during the photography process. At our wedding, she was on time, and SO on top of things that I really didn't need to worry about anything getting done. She was on it and coordinated everything so seamlessly. She not only is excellent in her photography skills, but helped so much in establishing our timeline and sorting out what was actually feasible for the day. We really appreciated her expertise. I fully trusted her in the process and knowing that definitely took stress off of us. The best part, is she is just an awesome human!! I highly recommend Madi for your wedding!!
