I'm an amateur photographer and I knew exactly what I wanted to see in my wedding photos. I've been admiring Luminaire Images work for years, but moving 3 states away didn't deter me from hiring a photographer from out-of-state. That might sound crazy to some brides, but thanks to Molly, it couldn't have gone more smoothly.

After our initial consultation phone call, Molly responded quickly with pricing, options AND IDEAS. She was available to discuss details anytime something popped into my head both by phone and email. She worked with my special requests easily and helped create something that worked for me. She also referred me to her travel agent who in-turn helped coordinate travel and accommodations for all of my out-of-state/town guests.

Molly is not only the consummate professional, but she is extremely easy to work with. It poured the entire day of our outdoor wedding, aside from the wonderful 20min break it stopped and we did our ceremony. She came prepared, worked with the ill weather and managed to achieve shots I thought could only exist in a magazine.

She didn't need photoshop to deliver STUNNING photos. She put up an amazing slideshow at the reception of the pre-wedding photos we took and had an online gallery up almost immediately for all our guests to view photos. Within 2 weeks time we received our disc with all the wonderful images of our event.

Both during the wedding prep and the reception, she was nearly invisible, never getting in the way, you wouldn't have even known she was there... except that she managed to capture every moment of our special day!! Luminaire Images FAR exceeded my expectations!!

The overwhelming response in comments of our friends and family to the spectacular photos she delivered says it all. Some were skeptical of my hiring some one from another time zone, but they all understood when they saw what Molly delivers. Luminaire Images is THE BEST, whether you're doing a local or destination wedding... this should be the only photographer you contact!!

Molly and Matt were excellent to work with and I would recommend them without reservations to anyone! From the start, Molly was very flexible in finding a time to meet. She went to the site where we were getting married (Long Beach Museum of Art) to scope it out before the wedding. She is super friendly and easy going, that you are immediately at ease around her. She has a lot of contacts in the wedding industry, and was able to make some recommendations to help with wedding planning. The day of the wedding, Molly and Matt were there early and met us at our "getting ready" locations. They managed to capture photos of EVERYTHING, all the small details, without being obtrusive. Several family and friends commented on how wonderful they were (not only in talent but in personality). They also set up a screen with images from the ceremony during the reception showcasing their work at one of the tables. I am not sure how they managed to do that so quickly, but everyone was amazed at the quality! They also took the time to take some unique photos of the two of us utilizing the museum surroundings, that weren't your stereotypical wedding photos and turned out awesome! She posted a blog almost immediately after the wedding which we were able to share with our friends and family. She offers a wide variety of albums and packages, or you can get the images on disc. Overall we were so glad we went with Molly, and we hope to have her photograph some of our future events again.

I received photography services from Luminaire Images for my vow renewal with 20 others brides. It was a wedding for military couples. My photographers who was assigned to my husband and I was Luminaire Images. The time they took to make me feel more at ease when I took my photos was amazing. My husband agreed with me, when it came to him taking photos, him being in marine corp uniform is not very comfortable, he felt at ease when it came to taking photos.

The details the photgraphers took when it came to our photos was amazing. the simplest things that i over looked they took it and made it into one awesome photo" just like a small fist bump my husband and i did during the ceremony, some people only noticed it but they captured it in a photo. They took on a very hard task to work with 21 couples in capturing the moment. The timely manner in which they were able to have us preveiw photos was quite quick, they responded to every question comment and my concerns.

I absoultely love the way my photos came out, our guests who came to the wedding love them also. they surpassed my expectations and captured the moments that will last forever. i look forward to using them for my future photo shoots.


highly recommend them for any special occasion!!!

I really enjoyed working with Molly and her second shooter Matt. Molly was very communicative through the whole process and answered all my emails promptly. Molly and Matt are very friendly and low key which was important to me on my wedding day. If we needed guidance for a “pose” she offered it. She made the whole wedding party feel comfortable and we had fun taking pictures too! On my wedding day, Molly and Matt arrived on time, were dressed professionally and were ready to start work. Their work ethic is awesome. Molly does a mix of semi-posed shots and photo-journalistic which was important to me. So many people have complimented us on our wedding pictures. I especially treasure the emotion she captured in the pictures during the ceremony. The joy that you can see in our families’ faces is something that can’t be described and I am so happy I could see it in Molly & Matt’s photographs.

We were very lucky to have Molly and Matt as our photographers. The pictures came out amazing! They did such a great job at capturing the moments. Molly and Matt are very professional and are very in sync. She's very fast at responding to my emails and questions. Right at our initial meeting, I knew we were in good hands. Can't thank them enough for capturing all the great moments that we weren't able to see ourselves that day! I'll be recommending Luminaire Images to all my friends and family :)

I was so impressed by Molly's photo-journalistic approach to weddings and her friendly demeanor that I hired her and flew her to the Caribbean to shoot our wedding. The experience of working with Molly and her team went above and beyond what I imagined. They were the perfect combination of professional and social. Our wedding guests LOVED them, they fit right into the event without being "in your face", while capturing it all. The outcome, as I expected, was phenomenal. People rave about our pictures and enjoyed looking at all of them. They were creative, beautiful, and everything we wanted. The photography was the most important element to me in this process and I am so pleased I found her. I have recommended her to every bride I encounter. To top it off, the cost of having them there, was still so affordable. I have no complaints...we are a very happy couple with the most amazing pictures I could have asked for.

Molly of Luminaire Images is wonderful! We fell in love with her style that is a mix of traditional and photojournalistic. She has the ability to catch feeling and emotion in her pictures that we did not find with others that we interviewed. She is very sweet, and always there to lend a hand...even if it is not taking photo's. She is by far the best we found out there for the value! Other photographers with her style cost twice as much. I would highly recommend Molly to any bride that is wanting something more than just pictures. Molly makes the moments come to life and the feelings captured forever!!

We have hired Molly, of Luminaire Images several times including our engagement, wedding, maternity and newborn shoots and I could not recommend her more highly. She is fun and personable, someone you want to have taking your pictures, and she has AMAZING talent, just take one look at her portfolio. She captured the emotion of our wedding on film, and she took special care to every detail that we missed or soon forgot :-( Everyone who has seen our wedding pictures have loved them and have made a comment such as "wish our pictures were as nice..." and we have had more than one person we referred actually use her for photographing a special occasion!! Really, her photography speaks for itself and we will contunie to use her as our family photographer!!

Vendor recommendation from A Good Affair Wedding and Event Production

Molly is a wonderful photographer! I have worked with her and she has a great style and easy laid back style that is great to work with. I have also used her personally to photograph my dogs and the photos were so much more than I had even hoped for! Molly and Matt are super fun and I love the creative shots that she comes up with.
As a planner I seek out vendors that have a great value, are fun to work with, have the interest of my client as number 1 and who deliver a reliable and amazing service- Luminaire does just that!

Wendy and I have had the opportunity to work with Molly during our photo shoot and she is amazing. She has the most creative eye to capture her clients in an artistic and fun way. Molly will create a story for you and capture every little detail to create a memory that will last you a life time. You will not be disappointed if you hire here.
