COASTAL CREATIVE STUDIOS

Mary Decaprio
Studios

My love for photography began at an early age. I got my first camera at 13, and there was no turning back. What started as curiosity quickly became a lifelong passion, leading me to study photography and begin shooting weddings while still in high school. That early, hands-on experience shaped my ability to anticipate moments and capture genuine emotion as it naturally unfolds.

I specialize in intimate weddings, second weddings, and vow renewals—celebrations that are deeply personal, meaningful, and centered around connection. I’m drawn to couples who value authenticity over extravagance, and who want their day to feel relaxed, real, and full of emotion. In my experience, these smaller, more intentional weddings often hold the most powerful stories.

I also have a deep love for boudoir photography. Creating a space where women can reconnect with themselves in a way that feels fun, freeing, and empowering is incredibly important to me. My approach is gentle and encouraging, focused on helping each woman see her own beauty in an honest and meaningful way.

Whenever I have a camera in my hands, my goal is always the same—to create images that feel real, emotional, and lasting. My work is about more than photographs; it’s about preserving moments and helping people feel seen, celebrated, and truly themselves.

When I began this business in 2008, weddings were the heart of it all. I’ve always been hopelessly in love with love—the white dress, handwritten invitations, soft florals, and the quiet magic of a wedding morning. Being invited into that space, entrusted with moments that become part of a family’s history, is something I have never taken lightly. Over the years, my love for this work has only deepened, shaped by experience and an ever-growing appreciation for the details that make each story unique.

Along the way, something beautiful happened. The relationships didn’t end with the wedding day. Couples returned as their lives grew—engagements to marriages, marriages to parenthood, families evolving year after year. There is no greater honor than being invited back again and again to document a life unfolding. This space is a reflection of all I hold dear—love, connection, and the moments that matter most. I so look forward to meeting you and capturing yours, wherever life may take you.
