Couples
Whether you're celebrating an engagement, an anniversary, decades of love, or simply the fact that you found each other, let’s document this chapter in a way that feels effortless and true to you.
for every chapter
Couples sessions aren’t just about pretty pictures—they’re about capturing what makes your love yours. The inside jokes, the way they look at you when you’re not watching, the quiet moments, and the playful ones. It's about leaving the session more in love with your sweetheart than when you got there.
For the Wild, the Joyful, and the Deeply in Love.
I love taking pictures with Marquette! She was our wedding photographer and we get our anniversary photos done by her every year. Not only do we get gorgeous photos but we get to feel like models. Some how even when we shoot off our goofy grins and jazz hands the pictures turns out great!! She captures our personality in every shot! It is wonderful! Once we get to the picture location all my worries melt away! We get to just hang out with a friend who happens to be holding a camera! Its the best!
All my worries
melt away.

What I love most about Marquette LaRee Photography is when I look at the pictures I don’t remember all the difficult things that were going on in my life during different phases. I just remember that wonderful day. How much fun we had, how calm and confident I felt. I felt like she was my friend and she was taking care of us and just wanted us to be our true genuine selves. Those memories are priceless! We have always LOVED the pictures she has taken, and the whole experience is easy going, and she is so nice to work with. We are so so so happy with our pictures and we really appreciate you Marquette! Thank you!! Love, The Goutchers
The whole experience is
easy going.

Marquette is just the best! She's done a couple shoots for us, and she does a great job of getting shots that really show our personalities. She is a master at posing/directing her subjects to get images that look and feel beautiful and REAL. She also did a great job of making it a fun experience overall! We did a sweetheart session that honestly just felt like a fun date. We loved her and the images she gave us that now hang on our walls!
It honestly just felt like
a fun date!

Payson, AZ Couples session, Family Sessions, and 10th anniversary session
Marquette was AWESOME! She really knows what she's doing and that inspires a lot of confidence! She made us feel good about ourselves, and helped us feel confident! We were very at ease and comfortable during the shoot! She was prepared with a blanket for the cold and wet grass, she had an umbrella in case of undesired weather changes, she thought of everything! If you're looking for a photographer who is fun, easy to work with, professional, and talented, Marquette is your girl!
She made us
feel good about ourselves.

Marquette is AHmazing! Professional, artistic and SO MUCH FUN! Our 10 year sweetheart session with her brought my husband and I so much closer together. We're still smiling days later! We will be using her again for sure!
Our session brought us
so much closer together.

miami, AZ 10th anniversary session
Marquette is really easy going. She comes prepared with ideas and a creative mind. We met with her beforehand to get to know each other and I knew from when we met that we were going to have a fun time. She grabbed us right at the end of our reception and said she had this great idea. We went along with it and she took this gorgeous backlit shot in front of the barn. Aidan and I love it so much and have that photo hanging in our house. Marquette is fantastic with her camera! Our pictures are a dream come true. I loved the timeless feel of them-- no trendy filters or strange poses.
I have never felt more at ease

Couple's Session Info
+ Additional Photographer: 150/hour
An additional photographer means I can cover more events of the day at a time, provide more angles (for example during the ceremony we can get more guest reactions as well as the ceremony events), and drastically increase the number of portraits I am able to deliver.
+ Additional Coverage time beyond the package coverage:
$450/hour booked ahead of time
$600/hour for time extended in the moment on the wedding day
+ Custom Retouching: $35/image
I do light & color adjustments on every image I deliver, as well as some basic acne removal (because sometimes that one wedding zit just insists on making an appearance, we get that).
For extensive editing I charge on a per image basis.
+ Albums and Prints: Prices vary
Prints are available in every client's online gallery. Custom sizes can be ordered through me.
Legacy Albums Available to add on to any session! For information and pricing on Albums, please click the "There is Power in Your Photos" banner below.

Extras & Add-Ons
When you face trials in your life, and like my Mom and Grandma both told me, "it's not IF you will face trials, but WHEN," I challenge you to sit on the sofa with your sweetheart or family and look through your wedding album and family photos together. I don't know any family who could do this and not be reminded of their love and the fact that they can make it through anything...as long as they have one another.
An album tells the story of your day in a way that no other product can. And it lives on to tell that story to your children and grandchildren. It strengthens marriages for generations! Albums can be added on to any wedding package!
Stories of Mom and Dad's engagements in the mountains where we had our family reunion every year, Mom's beautiful long white wedding dress that I swore I would wear someday for my wedding (but which I outgrew when I was 10!), stories of my aunt and uncle singing at the reception, and stories of Mom and Dad dancing, something I've loved watching my entire life.
Seeing the photos, and being able to match them to the real life love story I saw between them every single day, up through my mother's final minutes on earth in 2021, was powerful. I still love looking through their albums; they are treasures!
In the Living Room of my childhood home was my Mother's beautiful china cabinet, handmade by my Dad. There on the bottom shelf sat a blue and white checkered album next to two black bound albums. I spent hours of my childhood sitting on the floor by the china cabinet, pulling those books out, and turning each page as I dove into the stories there in front of me.

1. How do we book?
FAQs
Couples sessions include travel within 1 hour of Thatcher, AZ, but I’m always up for an adventure! If you have a special location in mind outside this area, let’s chat—additional travel fees may apply.
3. where can we have our session?
Absolutely! I love when couples include their furry friends. Just let me know in advance so we can plan a pet-friendly location and bring a helper if needed!
6. Can we bring our dog?
Yes! Your images deserve to be more than just digital files—let’s turn them into something tangible. You can order prints straight from your gallery, and we can work together to order albums and canvases through my fabulous labs.
10. Do you offer prints and albums?
Absolutely! Whether it’s a favorite hobby, a sentimental location, or something totally unique to your story, I love making sessions feel personal.
8. can we personalize the session?
Arizona weather can be unpredictable, but don’t worry! If we get horrible wind, heavy rain, or an extreme heat wave, we can adjust the time, location, or reschedule if needed.
11. What happens if the weather is bad?
Yes! Outfit changes are included in your session. Many couples bring one casual and one dressy outfit for variety, but you can switch things up however you’d like. I wouldn't suggest more than 3 total outfits just for time's sake.
7. Can we bring multiple outfits?
You’re not alone in that fear! Most couples feel this way at first, but I promise—within a few minutes, you’ll forget there’s a camera. I’ll guide you through natural movement and prompts so you can just focus on each other and have fun.
