Hi, I'm Mare — a Midwest-based photographer with a passion for capturing real, heartfelt moments.
I specialize in boudoir, family, and portrait photography, with a storytelling approach that celebrates love, connection, and authenticity.

At Moments by Mare, my goal is to create imagery that reflects your true spirit. I take a lifestyle photography approach, which means your session will focus on genuine emotion, natural interactions, and candid moments — with just a touch of gentle posing. The result is a gallery full of images that feel honest, intimate, and uniquely you.

I believe photography is more than just taking pictures — it’s about preserving the moments you’ll want to relive for years to come. Whether it’s the quiet love between partners, the joy of family, or the empowerment found in a boudoir session, I’m here to document your story with care and intention.

Whether this is your first time hiring a photographer or your tenth, I want you to feel confident and cared for. I’m committed to creating an experience that not only meets your expectations but goes beyond them — one that makes you feel seen, celebrated, and completely comfortable every step of the way.
