DOCUMENTER of life and love ︵

MADISON T. SMITH

Every elopement, every wedding, and every photoshoot changes me for the better in some way. My intention is to make you feel something with every image. The kind of photos where you can still remember how your stomach hurt from laughing. Images that make you think of your favorite song. I'm moved by real emotion and human connection, and I have such a vast passion for capturing life organically.

With 6 years of photography experience, and 5 years in the wedding industry, my business has grown immensely. My career has taken me all around the country and I've been given the privilege to connect with some of my favorite humans ever.


I find inspiration through music, old photographs from decades ago, romance movie scenes, as well as my own love story. I bring all of this into my work. Documenting love and lives of others has shaped me into who I am today. My goal is for my clients to feel the same way as I do when telling their story - energized, in love, and inspired.

A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Hobbies

Outside of photography, my favorite things include exploring new places and being outdoors, surrounded by nature. I love taking walks and playing with my pups!

I'm a lover of all vintage things, and thrifting gives me such a serotonin boost. I've always had a passion for buying pieces of clothing and making them into my own. You can find me strolling up and down the aisles of thrift stores over and over JUST in case I missed something I need. And yes, I do need to add that coffee mug to my collection...

I spend a good amount of time reading, romance novels and psychological thrillers being my two favorite genres. I love to read about different love stories, it gives me inspiration when I photograph them. I've always been a daydreamer and enjoy writing as well, yet I've always struggled with putting my thoughts and emotions into words. I think that's why I love photography so much, the photos just always speak for themselves.

Fun Facts

I am currently 24 years old! I shot my first wedding when I was 18. I've been photographing individuals, couples, and families since I was 16.

My all-time favorite movies are Seven Pounds and Endless Love.

On an off day, you can find me reading a book, walking my dog, thrifting, or just catching up on sleep.

I currently have 21 tattoos, most of them being pretty small but have sooo many more I want add!

Goose and Hero!

My Story
1 / 2

The Beginning

I grew up in a small town in Tennessee and it's currently where I still live my life - it's the place that I will always call home. When I was 14, I bought my first camera and began documenting everything. As a senior in high school, I had a ton of my peers ask me to take their senior pictures and it always made me feel so giddy. It still makes me smile to see my work in our yearbook. I started randomly asking my friends to do creative shoots with me, and I began photographing families as well.
