Photographs Embedded with Light & Silence

Portrait and lifestyle photographer, based in ROCKVILLE, MARYLAND

My style is moody, cinematic, and full of emotion. I don’t just take pictures—I capture the feeling behind every moment. Whether it’s golden light on the beach, quiet in-between glances, or big belly laughs, I’m all about documenting the real stuff in a bold and beautiful way.


Every session is laid-back and personal. I want you to feel seen, comfortable, and connected—so we can create images that go beyond the surface and tell your story in a way that’s raw, vibrant, and unforgettable.

A portrait and lifestyle photographer with a candid approach, based in Rockville, Maryland

Hi, I’m Marcie – a lifestyle photographer, proud mom, wife, and memory maker based in Rockville, Maryland.


My passion for photography reignited during the COVID-19 pandemic, when I began capturing everyday moments with my daughter, our dog Cosmo, and the beautiful world around us—beaches, birds, family, and friends.


Now, I specialize in relaxed, natural, and authentic photo sessions that highlight real connections and true emotions. Whether you're looking for family portraits, beach photography, or candid lifestyle shots, I’m here to help you create memories you’ll treasure forever.


Let’s bring your vision to life—together.

"When I first reached out to Marcie, I immediately knew she was going to be amazing. From the very beginning, she was incredibly kind, professional, and easy to talk to. She took the time to really understand what we were looking for and asked all the right questions, especially when it came to the style and overall vibe we were hoping to achieve in our photos. Her communication was prompt, clear, and thoughtful, which made the entire process feel so stress-free.


The photo shoot itself was such a fun and relaxed experience. Marcie made us all feel completely comfortable in front of the camera — even our son, who can sometimes be shy, warmed up to her quickly thanks to her friendly and patient approach. She gave great direction while still allowing us to be ourselves, which really shows in the final images.


When we received our gallery, we were blown away. Every single photo was absolutely stunning! Marcie has an incredible eye for detail and captures both posed and candid moments so beautifully. You can tell she truly cares about her craft and her clients.


If you're looking for someone who is not only talented but also genuinely passionate about documenting special moments, Marcie is the photographer to hire. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to capture meaningful, high-quality images of their loved ones. We can’t wait to book another session with her in the future!"
