Living in the moment or remembering it…
you don't have to choose
Our Experience allows our couples to be fully in the moment while we capture it behind the scenes.
As we approach your wedding day, we will work together to craft a plan for capturing your memories in a way that ensures your images capture the smallest details, showcase the love and connection that fills your day, and ensure the liveliness of the celebration is felt in each special moment.
THE mhp EXPERIENCE
HERE'S WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Our couples never have to worry about the details of their day being captured, rain plans, or how their memories will all be preserved - because we take care of every last detail and plan for you!
In order for us to fill your wedding gallery with images that tell your story, showcase the love and laughter of those you love, and bring the celebration back to life through your photos - knowing you has to be our first priority.
We believe in giving each client a customized, hands-on approach to capturing their wedding day in order for us to truly get to know you, your relationship, and those who surround you during your celebration!
“Morgan was the most communicative of all my vendors and I count my lucky stars I found her."
Morgan truly made us feel SO special on our wedding day. I cherish the friendship I've gained with her and I seriously could not image my day without her. Any couple is incredibly lucky to get the chance to work with Morgan.
— emily + cam
“She truly blew me away with her professionalism, creativity, and enthusiasm."
As someone who rarely allows photos of myself to be taken, she took away all the stress and made it extremely easy to be present and enjoy the moments. Not to mention, I have never felt more beautiful in photos. We are eternally grateful for Morgan!
— caitrin + matthew
“You won't find anyone else in the industry like Morgan."
To say that Morgan made the entire process easy and stress free is a complete understatement. We felt like superstars the whole time and her photos speak for themselves. Not to mention, our family and friends keep saying how great our photos are and how kind and amazing she was the entire day. Do yourself a favor and hire Morgan. Take it from us, you definitely won’t regret it!

OUR process
let's get to know each other
I only take on a limited number of brides every year in order to personally connect with them and serve them best! I serve a specific type of bride that wants joyful, genuine, and classic portraits for her wedding! She needs more than someone who shows up with fancy equipment, she needs someone she can feel comfortable with and a memorable experience! After inquiring, we hop on a video consultation call where we can go over more details in depth. Then we move on to the booking process!

OUR process
making it official
When you're ready to make it official, after our first meeting I'll set up your custom proposal for you. Then I will send you over an online contract and retainer that you can fill out online. Once those two things are received, you're officially a Morgan Hope Bride! This is where the fun begins! I'll send you a custom bridal guide so you know exactly how things work and what to expect moving forward. Then we can pick a date and start to plan for your engagement session!

OUR process
engagement session
This is where we really get to know each other better! The bridal guide will give you inspiration for outfits, locations, and more! You can get familiar with how I work and it's also your chance to basically practice posing for your wedding portraits! By the time the wedding day rolls around, my couples are SO natural and relaxed in front of the camera because they know what to expect! After your session you will receive a link to an online gallery where you can print, share, and download your photos!

04
OUR process
custom timeline creation
As your wedding day gets closer, I will send you over a detailed questionnaire that you can fill out online so we can finalize all the details. I will also create a custom timeline for you so your day can run as smoothly as possible. We can collaborate to make sure your day is perfectly planned so you can relax and have magical images!

OUR process
the wedding day
The big day is finally here! It will seem like a blur just because of how fast it goes by... but that's why you have me! I'll be there capturing every detail and every moment so you can look back and remember everything! From traditional portraits to magazine worthy shots... I can guarantee you'll have a huge gallery afterwards. I'll send you a link to your online gallery around two-three months after your wedding date.

06
OUR process
gallery delivery
Around 2-3 months after your wedding day you'll receive a link to your online gallery. I got through and had select and edit each image to make sure your photos are perfect and stunning! The best part about the online gallery is how EASY it is to share your photos! You can view, share, and print all from the link!
next step
07
OUR process
album design
After you receive your gallery link and take some time to go through it... this is when you and your new husband will sit down and "favorite" all the photos you want included in your album. Then I will design a unique wedding album for you and ship it directly to your house! Seeing your wedding photos printed in a book format is SO much better than viewing them through your phone. Trust me!
next step
I never realized until my wedding day that your photographer is SO much more than your photographer. Having Morgan capture our day was the best decision we made.

our philosophy
Capturing moments that feel just as good as they look by creating relationships with our clients that allow them to be fully present and relaxed during their biggest moments!
We had another photographer booked... and then we found Morgan
Booking our vendors quickly was the plan—until we found Morgan. We realized we needed someone who truly understood our vision and would bring a personal touch to every moment. After seeing her work and talking with her, we knew she was the one. During our engagement session, I looked at my soon-to-be husband and said, ‘We made the right choice.’

Frequently asked questions
1. do we have to do an engagement session?
I never require any of my couples to do an engagement session, however I HIGHLY recommend them.
This is included in all of our packages, and is our gift to you! It makes a huge difference in how your wedding day flows because it's your chance to practice posing for your wedding day and see how I work. It really is the secret sauce to making sure you love your overall experience! Since this is part of our experience, it cannot be swapped or exchanged with anything else.
Frequently asked questions
2. when will i get my photos back?
I work CRAZY hard to make sure you can view some of your images before your honeymoon! A couple days after the wedding I'll send you over a sneak peek, and then about a week or two afterwards you'll be featured on the blog! These are my favorite images from the day. After that I can guarantee your images will be delivered to you within the next 8-12 weeks! I definitely won't make you wait 6 months or more like other photographers!
Frequently asked questions
3. when should we book?
Email me as soon as possible! If you have a confirmed date and venue, It's never too early to reach out!
I normally book a year in advance, and in order to give all my couples the best Morgan Hope Experience possible, I can only accept around 10-15 couples each year.
Frequently asked questions
4. what happens if it rains?
Living in New England means I have LOTS of practice photographing in the rain! We can pick locations that will keep you dry and we can still take photos outside if it's not down-pouring. All you need is a good attitude, and to trust me! I got you girl!
Frequently asked questions
5. is eight hours enough coverage time?
Eight hours is the minimum amount of coverage time you need for a wedding day! This is great option for brides who are getting married in one location.
If you are planning on having your wedding in multiple locations, or just want extra buffer time throughout the day I would recommend 9.
Frequently asked questions
6. do you offer payment plans?
Yes I do! Booking a handful of vendors at once can be a lot, so I am more than happy to offer payment plans to make it easier!
I can break up your investment into four even payments, and spread them out so that everything is completed before the big day! We can discuss this on your planning call to make sure it suits your needs!
