For a truly Slim Aarons chic getaway, there is nowhere quite as romantic or nostalgic than Bahamian luxury boutique hotel, the Dunmore. As a Harbour Island photographer, spending one week at the Dunmore every winter is an absolute dream getaway (see my full travel guide here). My perfect day at the Dunmore begins with watching the sun rise over the pink sand beach. Depending on my mood, I may go on a long walk down the powdery sand or spend a few minutes practicing yoga or meditating to the sound of the waves lapping against the shore. We have been […]

Summer mornings in Provence are unlike any other. I wake to the first light of the day beginning to stream in through our French doors, and quietly get dressed, grab my camera, and head outside on foot to capture the beauty of the day.

I wander through the dew covered grass, and watch, in awe, as the light changes from a twilight blue to the palest of pinks to a warm, golden glow. As a Provence film photographer, these experiences have an almost […]

There’s something about the Tuscan color palette, the waning light, the abundance of the harvest season, and the warmth of the Italian people that makes Tuscany a truly dream destination in autumn.

Over the years we have established a tradition of escaping the dark, cold days of the East Coast for a week on the pink sand beach of Harbour Island (you can see photos from past trips here and here). This tiny outpost in the Caribbean Sea is less than four-miles long and eschews the feel of a traditional beach destination in nearly every way. On Harbour Island, you won’t see a chain resort or a hundred-room hotel – instead, this small but decidedly chic island opts for discrete accommodations in luxuriously quaint boutique hotels and historic homes scattered down the […]

                                       I can't wait to learn more about your love story!

After pursuing my degree in fashion, I began my career as a travel photographer, exploring the world one country at a time and telling the stories of the people, places, art, and ideas that moved me. But, it was when I photographed my first destination wedding that I truly found my life’s calling.

My work is luminous, poetic, elegant, and above all, intentional. It will be my deepest honor to guide you through the wedding planning process, to help you create unforgettable moments and experiences, and, ultimately, to craft images where time stands still.

I'm Molly - an international wedding photographer eternally devoted to capturing the beauty of your union. 

Bonjour mon ami,
