LET'S BE FRIENDS

Hey friend! I’m Maddie Elizabeth — but some call me Mads, I’d love to be your photographer!


Photography has been my full-time job for the past three years, and what started as a creative outlet quickly became one of my greatest passions. I truly love capturing people as they are — the real moments, genuine joy, and memories you’ll look back on for years to come.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll probably find me at a cute coffee shop (even though I don’t actually like coffee lol), serving at a ministry event, exploring somewhere new with my best friends, shopping (because honestly… it’s a hobby), or hopping on a plane to my next adventure. I’m almost always on the move — and I wouldn’t have it any other way.


One of my favorite parts of photography is getting to meet new people and create spaces where connection feels natural and easy. My goal isn’t just to take beautiful photos — it’s to make you feel comfortable, celebrated, and fully yourself in front of the camera.


So truly, I’d love the chance to not only be your photographer… but to make a new friend in the process

The BEST photography experience i’ve ever had! Maddie is so easy to talk to and guided me through every step of the way. She made the first time we met feel like we’d known each other for years which made it so much easier to be comfortable when taking pics. She communicates so well to make sure I loved every single pic I was getting!

I always come back to @capturedbymadseliz! She is so great with little kids, and does a beautiful job capturing my family’s love! I have done both studio and outdoor with her and have loved both.

I have done several shoots with Maddie and she surpasses my expectations every time! She has an incredible talent and knows how to make you comfortable during a shoot. 10/10 would recommend! Definitely having her photograph my wedding :)

Maddie took our photos on the beach in Miami! What I thought was just going to be a normal couples photoshoot turned out to be a proposal! Maddie made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera & was able to plan the proposal with my now fiancé so well! We absolutely loved the photos & would highly recommend working with her!

Maddie is AMAZING. She knows just how to hype you up and feel so confident in every moment of the shoot. She makes you feel like your best self the entire time. A shoot spent with her doesn’t feel like work it feels like spending time with a friend. Her joy shines through every photo she takes and truly shows how much she loves the Lords creation.

Maddie is an absolute dream to work with! She is the sweetest and she thoroughly explained and demonstrated each pose so I could understand what to do. She worked with me to make my dream photoshoots come to life by letting me incorporate memorabilia I brought. She even worked with me and my dog at a session and was so patient! I highly recommend Maddie because she takes her time to make sure your vision comes to life and she is beyond talented.

Maddie does an amazing job of capturing the real moments. I never laughed and smiled so genuinely. She made pictures easy to be in. I literally anticipated every single time I took pictures with her. Book with her!!

Maddie was there for our engagement and captured every moment so perfectly! We got the photos back quick and they were everything and more! Her photos told the story so well and they felt super personal! There is no one else I would’ve rather had there to capture this milestone for me and my fiancé
