“There are no words for me to recommend Maria highly enough! From start to finish she was absolutely amazing to work with. She was so sweet, unobtrusive, professional, and SO easy going. We absolutely love the photos—we're having trouble choosing which ones to print!—and I can't even count the number of people who have said they are among the best wedding photos they've ever seen. Not only does Maria take incredible photos, she is a pleasure to be around. I seriously feel like I made a friend. My wedding philosophy was to choose my vendors carefully and then put my trust in them and it really paid off, especially with Maria.
YOU HAVE FOUND YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER! Maria is the best there is.”

Words can't begin to describe how amazing Maria is. We hired her to shoot our proposal, engagement, boudoir, and wedding (we're a bit obsessed with her work). She completely knocked everything out of the park! Her ability to capture candid moments is unparalleled. She coached us during posed portraits in a way that made everything feel so natural. She ended up becoming not only just our photographer, but our friend.

"Maria is simply put: the best. Her sweet & sassy personality makes the entire process so fun, she’s incredibly organized and has so many great wedding day tips, and of course, she is one amazing photographer. We did an engagement shoot that turned out wonderfully, which made us even more excited for the big day and made us more comfortable in front of the camera. Her tips on the timeline were extremely helpful, and she truly made the day go by with a breeze. Her attention to detail is incredible, and I’m not even sure how she got some of the shots she did - so stealthy! I knew we’d love our wedding photos, but the final portfolio far exceeded our expectations. Trust her experience and artist’s eye!

“Maria was incredible to work with from start to finish. We were not only impressed by the amazing quality of her work, but we were blown away by how comfortable she made us feel. It was like chatting with a friend we had known for years, and we knew that she would be able to bring out the best in us through her lens. Every photo was stunning and perfect. The only bad thing I can say is that you'll want prints of every single photo she takes because there's no way you can narrow it down!

“We could not have had a better experience with Maria. Not only did she deliver AMAZING, BREATHTAKING photos that were everything we asked for, but she managed so much on the day of and was such a helpful presence. No one could figure out how to zip up my dress but her! She's funny, direct, honest, calm, an excellent problem solver-- everything you would want from someone who is with you every step of your day! I can't recommend her highly enough. This is the best money we spent for our wedding day.”

“Working with Maria was like a dream. Her ability to capture your vision and bring it to life is unmatched. Her role in my wedding went way beyond photographer; she kept my timeline, she was a voice of reason and creativity, she was my stylist and my friend. Let's not forget her photos...they are breathtaking. She captured candid moments that I never would have dreamed that I would be able to relive through a photo. Our photos were classic and unique at the same time. I would recommend Palermo Photo to anyone!”

“Maria was really wonderful to work with! She was quick to communicate and respond, very professional but always had a big smile on her face, and she made everything effortless on the day of coordinating photo shoots with family members and the bridal party. I am so glad that we had engagement photos done because that gave us a chance to meet Maria and get comfortable in front of the camera before our big day. After the wedding, my whole family raved about how great she was and how easy she made everything.”

“When I look at my pictures, I can remember what I was feeling in those moments, and my heart is filled with such joy and happiness. And I will have these photos for the rest of my life to look back on and reminisce. Ladies, invest in a photographer who has a passion for this business like Maria does. I promise you, you will not regret it. Flowers eventually die, wedding invitations get thrown away, your photographs last forever.”
