Mari was so patient and kind with our kiddos. She made them feel so comfortable that she was able to capture their true selves. Thank you Mari for our family photos that we will treasure for a lifetime!

Mari came out to our home to shoot some casual portraits of my husband and I. She is a truly gifted photographer. Her energy is infectious, her sense of humor is too. We were so comfortable with her and the finished pictures showed that. We plan to have some family portraits done in the coming months and wouldn’t think of having anyone but Mari take them for us.

My name is Tara and my fiance Kurt and I spent several months searching the internet and asking friends and family for recommendations for a photographer for our wedding. I searched countless sites and they all started looking the same to me.. Then I ran across the Destin Wedding photography website and fell in love with their entire portfolio. I was lucky enough to book Mari for my wedding date and it was the best decision I made for my entire wedding. Mari has an eye for different angles and creative shots that I never would have thought of and she will keep going until it’s perfect! It was

We loved our experience with Mari Darr-Welch photography and would definitely recommend her! She worked well with our kids and with the impending storm that was rolling in as we were doing photos! She was easy to keep in contact with and sent us our photos in the timeframe she originally told us. And the photos turned out great!

My experience with Ms. Mari was less than desirable. She don't proof any of the pictures she sent. She sent pictures with lipstick on my husband. To command a upward of prices that she does- you have to deliver the goods. While she might be the best photographer in the USA she was less than for ME.
She as some great reviews which must be fake. This photographer has a lot of issues and if you use her, you will find them out soon.
As an result:of my photo session with her- I have ended my relationship with the person that referred me to this horrible photographer. Which I knew this person for 8
