We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding! Mariah was wonderful to work with - immensely thoughtful and communicative. She was so helpful in the planning process and our photos turned out simply incredible. She also has such a quick turnaround to receiving the photos; an added bonus to an already awesome photographer. Highly, highly recommend Mariah Kasten Photography!

- Shannon & Nico

Mariah is such a pleasure to work with! She is not only the friendliest person who makes you feel so comfortable right when you meet her, but you can tell photography is truly her passion. It’s a breath of fresh air to be able to have photos taken without feeling rushed or feeling like you are “just another client” to get through. I have had the joy of doing 2 different sessions with Mariah so far and each time, the pictures turned out absolutely flawless.

- Julia & Bryan

Mariah is an extremely talented photographer that will meet your needs, wants, and beyond! She makes the environment comfortable, and takes in whichever moment she is capturing with you. She will go out of her way to hide behind a tree for a special shoot. She made my day more special than I would have ever imagined. If you are thinking about hiring her for your photography needs, Mariah is your go to!!!
