Mary was so amazing with our son during his cake smash session. She was also able to create the exact set up we imagined. She did a wonderful job.

5 Star — Megan Doorman December 29th, 2020

My family and I visited Mary for our Holiday family session. She had the most amazing set up. Far beyond what other photographers in the area were offering. Her attention to detail was over the top which is exactly what my style is. Not only is she very creative but her and her assistant were also amazing with both our children and our dog. All of us loved the experience.

5 Star — Jessica Manchester November 4th, 2020

I found Mary in a mom’s group on Facebook. There were so many recommendations for her. I contacted many photographers but after seeing her social media and website I knew she was the one. She is also one of the kindest photographers I spoke to. Not only was she able to work with me and get my son’s cake smash done on such short notice. She was amazing with my little guy during the session. I would 100% use Mary again.

5 Star — Mark Wright October 30th, 2020

My wife booked Mary for our extended family pictures. She was amazing with our crazy bunch. Very patient with all the kids and was able to easily accommodate my parents with comfortable posing options. We had such a great time with her. We cannot wait to see our gallery.

5 Star — Laura Marmion October 25th, 2020

Mary’s work is amazing and worth every penny. She has very detailed set ups and makes it look exactly how you envisioned it to be. She also is very kind and patient. Love her!

Anyone looking to get professional portraits done.... This is the lady to see. Weather its pregnancy, birthday, weddings, family photos etc. she can do it all. The quality is out of this world. Mary is a very caring, friendly, and down to earth person who has the passion and skills to produce great work. I highly recommend her if your looking for this kind of thing.

I have worked with Mary on three different occasions (cake smash, Christmas, and Colton’s 2nd birthday) and always had a terrific outcome!!!!

5 Star — Rebecca Brown March 18th, 2019

It was a pleasure working with Mary! She created a beautiful rainbow, hot air balloon set-up for our sons cake smash! Her creativity and passion for what she does really shines through. The splash part was so much fun to watch! Our son LOVED it! We didn’t have to worry about cleaning the cake mess off of our son which was a HUGE bonus! I highly recommend Mary Purdy Photography and look forward to our next photo session!

5 Star-- Jillian Rosato June 17th, 2018

Mary made our photo session so enjoyable despite my girl being more of a diva then not. She is patient and kind and just has a great energy.

5 Star-- Samantha Dishman April 14th, 2018

Had my daughters cake smash with Mary and she took her time, she was very patient with my daughter. I'm so glad I found her. I chose a unique theme and she HAND PAINTED the backdrop and made props. I will defiantly be coming back and recommending her to all my friends.

5 Stars-- Elizabeth Scheerer February 3rd, 2018

Mary is so great! We continue to book her. A tremendous amount of time, thought, and creativity goes into every session. She has an unlimited amount of patience for children and her photography is awesome. You won’t be disappointed.

5 Stars-- Lacee Ewing Quarantillo November 2nd, 2017

Mary is awesome! Our Mermaid picture turned out amazing! She took her time and was great with my kiddos

5 Stars-- Stephanie Carlson November 2nd, 2017

I wanted a maternity photo session that highlighted the addition to our family and the fact that our 21 month old was going to be a big sister. Even though said 21 month old was like taming lightening, Mary did a great job and our photos were exactly what I was hoping for! Thanks so much!

5 Stars-- Jennifer Dick November 1st, 2017

I had my daughters session in September. Mary did an amazing job with the fall set up. I loved everything from the set up to the photos. Lillian started towards the end of it, but Mary wanted to keep trying. It was an amazing experience. Thank you so much Mary!!

5 Stars-- Stephanie Lynn Phoebus October 23rd, 2017

We had an awesome experience during the apple cider stand mini sessions this past weekend. The set was adorable and very creative. My daughter Loved Mary. She usually takes a long time to warm up to a new person but within 10 minutes, she warmed up to Mary. I can't wait to see the photos. 

5 Stars-- Alec Allshouse October 15th, 2017

You have a good eye. I really enjoyed the photos that you posted on your FB page.

5 Stars-- Holly Murphy- September 27th, 2017

She did such an amazing job! Provided props and adorable outfits. Super impressed with how the photos turned out even though my little guy was less then happy towards the end of the shoot. Will definitely be using her for his 1st birthday photos and many more to come!

5 Stars-- Eva Butzke Wein- September 21st, 2017

I was so nervous as this was my first cake smash and I was worried about the baby being fussy. Mary was outstanding. She took a lot of time with our little one and she really captured the moments. Not only that, but she help us have confidence that the photos would be great- and they really were amazing. Our little guy was not so cooperative but you couldn't tell because the pictures were so great. Definitely will recommend and use her again

5 Stars-- Lindsay DietzelCarlo- August 31st, 2017

I contacted Mary to do a mermaid photo session because she is OBSESSED with mermaids. Mary was very easy-going and made her feel comfortable. Best of all the pictures turned out AMAZING! I would definitely recommend Mary to anyone who is looking for a great photographer.

5 Stars-- Sheryl Guthrie Bolner- August 3rd, 2017

Mary, Thank you for helping to capture Adalynn in some of the most adorable poses ever. We loved the time and effort that you took, to make sure we were happy with our session. Those newborn memories are captured for ever. Thank you!

5 Stars-- Chelsey Bedingfield- July 28th, 2017

Mary was fantastic! She was super patient with my girls and took her time. I will most definitely be using her again.

5 Stars-- Ashley Rios-June 25,2017

Thank you so much Mary!! We had such a blast at Romain's cake smash. I loved how professional yet laid back and fun it was. I was a little worried Romain wouldn't still but surprisingly it wasn't an issue at all. You must have some secret power. We absolutely love the outcome as well. The pictures are beautiful. I love them all. You captured so many of our boy's expressions. I am so glad we found you. Thanks again!!

5 Stars-- Lisa Mitten-June 20,2017

Just had Mary do my maternity shoot & I have to say, she is the very best!! I loved working with her & I'm so pleased with my photos. I already have plans to have her do newborn pictures when the baby is born & some of the whole family as well. I highly recommend her!!!

5 Stars-- Brittany Spiker-June 16,2017

Thank you so much for taking super cute pictures of my toddler. My girl is never cooperative and Mary got her to cooperate!! Very pleased with the experience and photos! My family and friend love them too. Would highly recommend her!

5 Stars-- Mary Palestis-June 16,2017

Mary was amazing! My son is 15 months old and was not willing to just sit still, she was so patient and involved during the photography process. I had never met her before our lemonade stand mini session but she was so friendly and didn't make me feel uncomfortable at all. I love how these photos turned out, I definitely recommend her for your photography needs. We will definitely be seeing her again in the future!

5 Stars-- Jabria Kay-June 9,2017

I can't put into words how amazing Mary is! I was referred to her by a coworker and loved the work I had seen in pictures. Once we arrived for our own photo shoot, Mary wowed us with an amazing set up based off her birthday party theme!! The props, the outfit, and cake (all included) had SO MUCH detail! Our daughter is usually a very happy baby and easy to get to smile. Well, of course the day of the shoot she is completely opposite. A one hour shoot ended up taking us three hours and not once did Mary show frustration. She tried so many different things to get our baby to warm up, including even feeding her the bottle. My husband and I walked away and our daughter loved Mary! She was smiling, laughing at Mary's sounds, and loved the bathtub part (which she usually hates bath time). I can not thank Mary enough for being so patient, kind, caring, and awesome with our baby girl! The pictures are absolutely beautiful and I can't wait to show the family!!! Thank you soooo much, Mary!

See you soon for more pictures, for sure :-)

5 Stars-- Mila Gray- May 31,2017

Mary you are creative and possess true talent. You captured my pumpkins "Best Angles". The pictures actually brought tears to my eyes. I truly appreciate your patience and protectionism. I am grateful to have met you, and i have already decided on which cake smash idea i'm going with :-P. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart. 

5 Stars-- Leena Moiz- May 16,2017

Mary was recommended by some moms on a local mommies group and i'm so glad I chose her for a Mommy and Me mini session. She was right on time and patient with my 6 month old. The photos turned out beautiful and delivery was quick and convenient. I look forward to her being apart of more of our milestones.  

5 Stars-- Katerina Algarin- May 7,2017

Thank you Mary for all the hard work and dedication you put into you're photography. Sam and I love our pictures and thank you so much for doing them. You are amazing and we appreciate it all!!

5 Stars-- Nikki Harmel-April 17,2017

The pictures Mary did for my sons 1 year cake smash were absolutely amazing. Even though my son was stubborn and fussy. I would book with her 1000 times. Mary not once gave up or did she get frustrated with him. Shes such a great photographer.

5 Stars-- Shannon Roenicke-April 11,2017

Mary did a 1st birthday cake smash for my daughter. My daughter was super fussy and didn't want to cooperate but Mary was very patient and committed to getting some great shots. The pictures turned out great! In addition, she took my vision and created an adorable set-up!

5 Stars-- Jasmine Martin-April 9,2017

Our first time using Mary and we loved our Easter mini shoot! We had technical difficulties our first try, but Mary was more than accommodating! My boys are super shy but she was very patient to make sure she got some good shots!! Thanks again!

5 Stars-- Glenda Szyl-April 9,2017

My family and I could not be happier with how our Easter pictures turned out. This was our first time going to Mary, and wont be the last. She was so friendly and patient with the kids.

5 Stars-- Chelsey Fierro-March 20,2017

Mary is a wonderful photographer and I love working with her! She is very professional, her and her assistant Richard were patient and professional. She is also very creative! I knew after seeing her portfolios that I wanted to get our holiday pictures done with her. Her prices are also very reasonable and she truly goes above and beyond, giving you more pictures then expected. I just recently got my nephews 1st Birthday cake smash photos done with Mary and of course it was another great turn out! I loved that her price was  all inclusive I just had to give her a theme and some ideas and she put everything together (props, cake,outfit, etc.) This factor alone makes me keep coming back because she is so creative. Anyone who gets pictures taken by Mary will be very pleased! She has a great eye and is fantastic with children! I love my pictures every session! I will recommend her to all my friends and family.  

5 Stars-- Joshalyn Scanlon-March 20,2017

I contacted Mary looking for a unicorn themed shoot for my baby girl turning one. She took my theme and made a beautiful personalized set up for her pictures. It was more then I imagined! Even her smash cake was perfect! My little one was constantly crawling away from the set and got fussy throughout but she was patient and took her time to work with us and my daughter to get pictures. I was more than pleased with her and will definitely be using her again and recommending her to family and friends. 

5 Stars-- Melissa Durham-February 18,2017

We love working with Mary. Even with an easily distracted toddler- she got beautiful shots we will cherish forever. We highly recommended her and will def be doing more sessions with her!

5 Stars-- Jennifer Guthrie-February2,2017

Mary is a fantastic photographer. She's been able to photograph my family on several occasions and I couldn't be happier with the way our pictures turned out. She is very patient (with the little ones) and professional and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for great pictures. Mary's passion for photography is definitely shown through her pictures.

5 Stars-- Molly Cluster-December20,2016

I found Mary on a local moms group and I am seriously impressed with her work. the Photos I received were absolutely stunning. I am still astounded by how beautiful the photos are. I'd like to add that we received a lot of photos, I was only expecting 5-6 for photos out of the 30 minute mini session and we received 15 beautiful photos! Mary also has wonderful customer service. I was unable to make it to the fall mini session that we had booked and she had no problem letting us transfer our deposit to the winter mini. She even reminded me to book, which I really appreciated (I would have totally forgotten if she hadn't lol) working with her during the actual shoot was great, she was super communicative and let us know exactly what she was doing every step of the way. We also didn't have to wait a very long time to receive the digital gallery (~ 1 week) which is much faster than some other photographers I have worked with. I am so impressed by Mary and Purdy memories Photography and cannot wait to book with her again in the future

5 Stars-- Amber Smith-December 15,2016

I saw Marys Advertisement in a FB moms group. From the start she had impeccable customer service. I knew exactly what her package offered and what to expect. She worked with me closely to make sure our family session was everything I wanted it to be. She said it would be about a week until I had our photos but she got them to me in days. They were beautiful and perfect. The online gallery was awesome. Its password protected! I was able to give the password to family out of state who could then access my gallery and print from there. I would most definitely recommend her to anyone, and I'll be using her again.

5 Stars-- Ashley Shoemaker-December5,2016

Mary is so talented and good with my son! Always captures the best moments of him.

5 Stars-- Brittany Andrews-November27,2016

Mary was fabulous, she was extremely professional while also very playful with my two sons. They loved her! They never open up to anyone but she had absolutely no problem breaking them from their shells. She captured the best moments of my boys, and I'll be forever thankful. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I couldn't wait to have their photos printed after I viewed their gallery.

5 Stars-- Mark Reynolds-November1,2016

Outstanding customer service and extremely patient with my daughter.

5 Stars-- Natalie Johnson-October23,2016

We did Mary's Fall mini's the price we paid compared to how awesome her set up was couldn't be beat. The pictures turned out perfect! My kids also loved her. They said that she was very nice and they liked her better then the other photographers we have used in the past.

5 Stars-- Jessica Booker-October21,2016

I signed up for Mary's fall minis. she did a good job. The set up was so cool. The Pictures she took of my kids were so good. Can't wait till her next mini's

5 Stars-- Deb Conway-October21,2016

I booked with Mary for fall minis, the process went calm and swiftly. The turn around time for our galley was extremely fast. I have tried other photographers in the area and did not get the same outstanding service. I'll be booking again for her next mini!

5 Stars-- Chris Mart-Ocotber2,2016

Awesome photographer! Extremely patient with my children.

5 Stars-- Chelsea Kelly-September14,2016

My experience with Mary Purdy Photography was amazing. She is so talented and patient. I'll be using her again.

5 Stars-- Jennifer Garret-September3,2016

My daughters 1 year cake smash was magical and perfectly executed. Mary payed close attention to every detail. It was such a relief to show up and have everything planned out so spot on to what I had imagined and what I told her I wanted. I was so excited about the three sessions in one part of this package. First she takes pictures in one outfit (we used the outfit I planned to use for my daughters birthday party). Then she moves on to the cake smash part and we were able to change my daughter into something less fancy. lastly she did a little tub part as well. There are not many photographers in our area who offer this level of dedication and creativity. The tub part was so adorable and definitely something above and beyond anything other photographers in the area offer. It was a perfect session.

5 Stars-- Rose Guthrie-September1,2016

Mary is an awesome photographer. Very patient and loves children.

5 Stars-- Nancy Johns-August15,2016

My maternity session with Mary was outstanding. I felt so sick, so tired and completely uncomfortable. She made me feel great about myself. It was a very pleasant experience to say the least. When I first viewed my gallery I cried, I'm sure the pregnancy hormones had a lot to do with it, but my boyfriends was also beyond impressed. I will recommend Mary Purdy Photography to all my family and friends

5 Stars-- Jessica Taylor-August9,2016

1 am beyond impressed with my sons 1st birthday pictures. After getting quotes for several photographers Marys package was the most reasonable. She wasn't the cheapest by far but the amount of time she put into creating a one of a kind cake smash was impressive. I'm so grateful I decided to book with her.

5 Stars-- Bryan Taylor-August7,2016

Mary did a outstanding job with my sons 1st birthday cake smash. We will be booking with her again.

5 Stars-- Loren Anthonis-July22,2016

I could not be happier! She braved the ridiculous heat with us on a Sunday evening, and got amazing photos of my family. Her edits are wonderful, and has a great eye for lighting and placement! She found multiple locations for us to get the perfect shot. We are so happy and would highly recommend Mary Purdy Photography!

5 Stars-- Bridget McCurdy-July18,2016

I would like to start out by saying Mary is awesome with children and she definitely has a calling. I sadly had to reschedule my session with Mary twice due to family issues. She was understanding and had no issue doing this for me. On the day of our session my daughter and son were both not about having their photos taken. My daughter is a bit of a princess and my son for lack of a better word can be a bit of a clown. I was at my wits end and Mary came in and saved the shoot. I was convinced she didn't get any good pictures of us as a family. When i saw the gallery I was caught by surprise. They were amazing pictures and way better then i expected. She surpassed my expectations by 10 fold. Please book with her, you will not be disappointed.

5 Stars-- Scott Dorsey-July9,2016

My experience with Mary was stellar. At first I was a bit skeptical when my wife first showed me her FB Photography page. Not skeptical about her work because it looked top notch. It was the fact that she had not been doing Photography for very long. I decided to agree with my wife and just roll with it. I was blown away by the results. I have already recommended her to several Family members and friends and I will continue to do so. Shes has impeccable talent and I see her going very far in this business.

5 Stars-- Cortnie Chenoweth-June28,2016

Our experience with Mary was beyond amazing. Her genuine patience combined with her creative view makes this her absolute calling. We never felt rushed and were able to get every style shot I envisioned for my sons 1st birthday/smash cake shoot. I'm so glad to have found someone with such great passion to take our family photos for years to come.

5 Stars-- Alexa Breidenbach-June27,2016
