Just when Maryjo was about to fully immerse herself in her photography career, a surprising twist emerged. Kaden proposed, and they joyfully began planning their wedding. Amidst the preparations, sudden lockdown due to a new wave of the pandemic threatened to disrupt their plans. With determination, she pivoted and created an Instagram for her photography, which not only kept her afloat but also made her realize her full potential as a photographer. 

Juggling her love for children and her passion for photography, MaryJo found herself working at a daycare both before and after the pandemic. Her days were filled with laughter from the kids and the joy of capturing precious moments with her camera. After high school, she crossed paths with her middle school crush, Kaden, who had transformed into a thoughtful and caring man. They fell in love and embarked on a journey together. 

CHAPTER 01: PLOT

WE ALL HAVE A STORY, HERE'S MINE

With Kaden by her side, she realized that love could indeed conquer all, even a pandemic. They celebrated an intimate wedding, surrounded by their closest family and friends. To add to the excitement, MaryJo's dream of having a dog came true when they adopted a furry companion named Diesel Lane. Embracing her newfound happiness, MaryJo decided to go part-time at the daycare again, striking a balance between her passions. She continues to capture precious moments with her camera while nurturing young minds during her spare time. The story of MaryJo's resilience, love, and creativity became a testament to the idea that even during challenging times, dreams can thrive and love can conquer all.

A VERY HAPPY ENDING

"MARYJO CAPTURED OUR LOVE STORY PERFECTLY.
OUR PHOTOS ARE SO US!"

Maryjo captured our vision perfectly with a moody timeless feel. She also has been an asset to my wedding planning process. We're grateful for her skill as my photos will be cherished forever and we'll always have her to thank.

When our previous photographer backed out (a blessing in disguise), MaryJo stepped in and saved the day! We could not have been any happier with our wedding pictures! Every shot was perfect! She captured every moment of love, joy and excitement! 

"MARYJO SAVED OUR WEDDING!"

- Marley morningstar

MaryJo makes me feel comfortable, and I can be myself and she will capture me at my best self. In my opinion, this is one of the best feelings to get from a photographer. 

"I LOVE WORKING WITH MARYJO. I FEEL COMPLETELY FREE AND BEAUTIFUL IN FRONT OF HER LENS."
