Hello, I'm maddie
weddings • couples • Grads & more Photographer
Hello there! Let me introduce myself—I'm Maddie Richter, a small-town girl now thriving in Southwest Florida. I grew up just outside Cincinnati, Ohio, and made the big move to Florida in 2019 to attend Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU). In May 2022, I graduated with a degree in Marketing and a minor in Entrepreneurship.
I'm excited to share that I am currently back at FGCU, pursuing my MBA to further deepen my expertise in business and marketing. Alongside my studies, I'm also working full-time in Marketing at FGCU, where I get to combine my passion for marketing with photography!
My love for photography has always been a big part of my life. I launched my photography business back in 2017, while still in high school, and I haven't looked back since! Capturing special moments and turning them into lasting memories is what drives me.
I can't wait to capture YOUR vision! Let's create something beautiful together
My approach
 
Photography, to me, is about more than taking pictures—it’s about telling a story. Whether it’s a wedding, a family session, or a personal milestone, my goal is to capture images that feel real, meaningful, and true to you.
I take a natural and relaxed approach, creating space for genuine moments to unfold. Instead of stiff poses, I focus on connection, laughter, and those in-between details that often become the most cherished memories.
Every person and story is unique, so I aim to reflect your personality through every image. I want you to feel comfortable, confident, and present, knowing I’ll capture the moments you’ll want to relive for years to come.
At the end of the day, my work is about preserving memories—turning everyday moments into timeless keepsakes.
