JESSICA + MEGAN
the maewood team
After leaving the classroom, traveling the country, and living in one of the largest cities in America, Jessica and her family settled down on 20 acres in Virginia. Since moving back to the country, they have transformed their property into a homestead, where Jes spends her mornings tending her garden, honeybees, livestock, and pups. She loves a great book on the beach, a good workout, and traveling when she can.
On your wedding day, Jes is known for her energy, contagious smile, and making you feel absolutely amazing. You will find her doing whatever it takes to get the photos you didn't even know you wanted, hugging your grandmother, lifting up other vendors, or dancing with the couple to "Don't Stop Believing!"
JESSICA
A small-town dreamer with a penchant for photographing all of life's beautiful moments, big & small. As a wife, fur-mom, and Super Aunt Extraordinaire, Meg cherishes meaningful connection, random acts of kindness, & going with the flow. After 18 years in the classroom, she is stepping away from teaching, but will always be about giving guidance to our clients, fostering open communication, & creating a welcoming environment, regardless of the location. On wedding days, you can find Meg pumping up the wedding party, tiptoeing around the ceremony site, & vibing at the venue.
MEGAN
A desert girl with a heart that will always partially reside in Maryland. I am stoked that you landed on this tiny space of the world wide web, and I hope that you stick around a bit! Since you stopped on in to get to know us, I will hop right to it. I am a mamma, wife, and story teller with a general obsession for puppies and food. I started this journey of photography looking through old photo albums with my grandmother and playing with the hundreds of disposable cameras we had. Even though it has always been a passion of mine, photography wasn't my first career. With a background in education, I come to every wedding day with a teacher's heart, compassion, patience, guidance, education, management, love, HUGS & fun (plus the occasional ninja move, of course)!

Michael, Jessica's husband, is also in love with his latest adventure of homesteading. Michael is in a constant state of learning, trying new things both on the farm and in this wedding industry. He has a gift of prioritizing the wants and needs of each unique couple and finding the perfect music to pair with the vibe of each wedding film. On your special day, you will find him joking around with the guys, flattering the ladies, making the magic happen, or stealing a cookie and a cup of coffee at the reception.
