I’m Maggie Whitesell, artist and storyteller of love in its truest form. Based on the East Coast but often found capturing celebrations around the world, I create imagery that feels romantic. My work is driven by a love for artistry and a heart for people. I shoot a signature mix of digital and film to bring dimension, depth, and unordinary moments to your gallery. I believe in heirlooms over trends, legacy over performance, and messy, miraculous love over everything.

As a planner and coordinator, I work with many photographers and videographers, and Maggie + her team were truly exceptional. From start to finish, they went above and beyond to provide the best possible experience for our client.
