Reviews of Holly McMurter Photographs (Photo Studio)

Alexis Bouma

Holly was amazing to work with! She is a one of a kind genuine person and made us feel so relaxed, comfortable! It was actually fun, which can be rare for a photo shoot! The images she sent us were just what we were looking for and more! Highly recommend! :)

Maryann White

Holly and her team were fantastic. We had our engagement photos with Holly first. It was a stunning evening. Both my partner and I had a lovely time with Holly - she was fantastic to get along with and our photos turned out lovely! We had our wedding photos done by Kate. Who we adored! Her humour was fantastic the day of the wedding and Mackenzie was very sweet and helpful with little things. I am grateful for them both and the photos we have received so far have been amazing! We cannot wait to see the rest!

Jay Dee

Holly is outstanding! Both in her personality and her portfolio! She is so fun to work with and makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. The photographs she took of our family were absolutely amazing and will be cherished for years to come! Thanks for being so great Holly!

Amanda Greer

We LOVED working with Holly on our small, elopement-style private wedding. Holly has a positive, fun energy that put us (a rather shy couple) completely at ease. She made sure we tried out many poses & backgrounds, so that our wedding album has variety. I would recommend Holly to anyone!!

Carly Rhindress

Holly is fantastic. I could not have been happier that I found her and was able to have her photograph our wedding. She is such a ray of sunshine and makes everyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. I have now done 3 photoshoots with her and I can't imagine any other photographer could compare. So many of my guests told me how great her and Kate were and how they couldn't wait to see the photos. The finished product did not disappoint - all of the photos were so amazing and I find myself looking at them all the time, remembering the best day ever. My wedding ended up being one of the last times I got to spend time with my grandmother before she passed away and having the photographs of us together is a perfect way to remember her. I cannot recommend Holly highly enough and anyone would be lucky to have her at their wedding!

Carly Rutter

I don't even know where to begin with how grateful I am to have Holly in our lives. Over the last while Holly has captured many sessions, and most recently our wedding. While planning vendors, there wasn't even a question who we wanted as our photographer. There is no one I would trust more. Holly captures personalities perfectly. She makes the sessions fun and effortless. She poses you perfectly and gets the best photos from allowing you to be your natural self. She encourages you to bring your pups, and is more than happy to watch you chase after them. I will forever recommend Holly. She's not only an amazing photographer, but has become a great friend as well.

Jodie

There are so many amazing things to say about Holly! Holly photographed both my engagement and wedding and she was so wonderful to work with on both occasions. She is such a calming and genuine individual that she makes you feel at ease even at the most stressful of times. I feel very lucky to have been able to work with Holly and I cherish the memories she has captured. I would recommend Holly McMurter Photographs to anyone, and we look forward to working with Holly for many more years!

Emily Roberts

Hiring Holly to do our engagement & wedding photos was the easiest and best decision we made during the wedding planning process. She is super professional and creates absolute magic with her camera, and she is down to earth and makes you feel confident during your photo shoots! When we met Holly for the first time it felt like we had known her for years, she made us feel so comfortable and during our wedding it felt like she was just another family member joining us on our special day. We will definitely be repeat customers and will always recommend Holly to anyone and everyone looking for a photographer!

Emily Workman

I was so lucky to be recommended to Holly! I wanted to do a beautiful and sexy wedding gift for my husband to open on our wedding day. I asked her about her Soul Sessions. I have never been so comfortable in my own skin. She has this personality that makes your feel confident, beautiful no matter what type of photoshoot she is doing. Let’s just say my Husband was amazed when he opened up his gift that morning. I would recommend Holly to anyone ! Thank you Holly

Brittiny Blodgett

Holly is a ridiculously talented photographer in Prince Edward County who truly cares about the client. She directs her clients with ease and makes them feel incredibly comfortable. I've worked with her for weddings and she handles any stress with grace. She's taken my branding photos and I've never felt so comfortable and powerful! I highly recommend Holly for you wedding day, boudoir, branding shoot, etc!!

Jenna Chard

We had the pleasure to work with Holly! I’ve had professional photos done before and have never had as much fun as we did with Holly. Holly made the whole experience fun and not awkward at all. She’s very talkative (which I love, as I am too) and tells you exactly what to do. I love how personable she was, she made sure to text me and ask how I was doing choosing an outfit, and she literally help me pick out the perfect outfit for the setting. I would definitely recommend Holly!

Monica R

Holly is an incredible photographer! She made me and my fiancé feel so comfortable. We were nervous going into the photoshoot because we had never done anything like it before but Holly had us laughing and we both really enjoyed the experience of being together and having fun. Her photos we’re incredible and we are so happy with the results.

Robert John Gergely

We loved working with Holly for our wedding! Leading up to our wedding, Holly reached out to us to ensure all details were taken care of before hand, she even spent the time to see the venue before our wedding date! Holly was really easy to work with and very accommodating before and during the wedding. During our wedding Holly was so creative and accommodating, taking lots of interesting group and couple pictures. After the day Holly was quick to get us picture samples along with all the final pictures of the day. We would definitely recommend Holly for any event.

Stacie Baek

Mackenzie was easygoing, friendly, and a talented family photographer to work with! Not only the booking process was easy and very thorough (thanks to Holly!), the team made sure every little detail (location, time, tips for outfit, etc) until the last minute. They suggested a time of the day that will show the best natural light in the area and it was perfect -- we had a dream-like photo session, especially at the Sandbanks beach. We'd love to work with Holly's team again in the future and I recommend Holly's team to anyone who's traveling to PEC and wants to do a quick photo sesh!

Kailey A

I booked Holly for one of her Fall Mini Sessions and my family and I had the absolute best time! Holly cares about her "clients" and makes you feel like you have been best friends for years! She is kind, respectful and is always making sure you feel comfortable! Not to mention that her photos are completely amazing! I look forward to booking her for anything and everything that involves a photographer! She is worth it!!

Allison Hegadorn

I was lucky to have a photoshoot with Holly McMurter Photographs Team! Shout out to Mackenzie for capturing some beautiful beach shots of my sisters and I. She made the experience so fun, she communicated well (much needed with our own lack of direction) and we truly love the results. The photos are great quality and capture some really great moments. 10/10 recommend shooting with Mackenzie and/or Holly!

Kyly Whitfield

We were so lucky to have Holly capture our big day! She was the epitome of professional, yet so warm that everyone felt comfortable and relaxed! She put myself and my husband at ease, and really made an effort to ensure that we took photos that were natural for us. She arrived early, and was working the entire wedding day - she seemingly captured every moment! When the photos arrived (before scheduled!) we had such a fun night flipping through on the big screen and re-living this special day! We honestly felt all of the warm fuzzies! Anyone getting married in the County or nearby would be lucky to lock down Holly for their wedding! She not only captured our memories, but was amazingly helpful in helping us identify other vendors! She was our best choice in planning this whole event :)

Jessika Tozer

We cannot stop raving about our amazing experience with Holly and her team! We hired Holly for both our engagement and wedding photos, and from the start we knew this was the best decision we could have made. Throughout planning, Holly was a wonderful resource to answer our many questions and even give vendor suggestions when our reception had to change last minute due to Covid-19 restrictions. But what really sets Holly apart as a photographer is the connection she builds with her couples. By getting to know our vision, personalities and story, she was able to capture the true essence of our connection as a couple in intimate and magical photos. As a couple that can sometimes be awkward and stiff in photos, she was able to instantly put us at ease with her ability to make every session feel fun and natural - changing having photos taken from something we normally feel uncomfortable doing, into the most fun date night. We cannot wait to book future sessions with Holly and her team to capture all our next special life moments.

Karley Hammerton

We had the pleasure of working with Holly just over a year ago in a fall mini. Despite uncooperative weather, Holly went above and beyond to make sure we still took our photos. When we received our photos I was blown away and I'm still over the moon about them a year later. Although I've always been a total fangirl of Holly I can't wait to work with her again in the future!

Brittany Twiss

Holly is so fantastic! She was wonderful with our two year old, and knows all of the great spots in the County for beautiful photos.

Karli Found

Prince Edward County’s best photographer, extremely easy to work with, absolutely gorgeous results every time, very experienced and knowledgeable!

Chelsea Magladry

I’ve known Holly for years and she’s always had a camera in her hands! This girl is amazing at what she does. Her professionalism can’t be beat, she makes anyone feel comfortable in front of the camera. This girl deserves 10 star review if I could give it too her! Keep doing what you’re doing Holly the sky is the limit for you!!!!!

Simon and Jamie-Lyn Webb

HOLLY <3 WOW! Thank you times a million for capturing our day the way you did! We love ALL of the photos. You are truly amazing at what you do. Wishing you a happy holiday season! -J&S

Samantha Mcmurter

Holly is an absolute sweetheart and is amazing at what she does. My husband and I are awkward people in front of the camera and she made it feel so natural for us. Holly photographed our wedding and we couldn’t have been anymore happy with our photos. She was also very accommodating since we had to change our places due to COVID. When you work with Holly not only do you get absolutely stunning, high quality work, but you always get a life long friend as well. Thank you for everything Holly!

kayla furmidge

Holly is amazing in all ways possible! We had our maternity photos done by her, and we recently got family photos done as well. We can’t wait to see how they turned out! She is so understanding & accommodating to each situation thrown her way. We love holly & will always be a returning customers.

Adam&Alex Vandertoorn

We were fortunate to have Mackenzie shoot our family photos the fall at the orchard, she is amazing! We were nervous that it wouldn’t go well with 3 littles but Mackenzie was so good with the kids and was really able to engage them, they loved her. We will absolutely be recommending Mackenzie to our friends and family.

Morgan La Vie

I hired Holly in June to shoot my fiancé and I. As we are both from PEI we chose the PEC to get these photos done. Holly was natural, personal, super responsive to our own picture ideas. She spent OVER (and I mean well over) the slotted time we had with her. Nearing the end of the shoot I had requested a very specific color scheme and shot. Knowing I was over our time- this girl didn’t complain and seriously captured the most perfect shot. I will never hesitate to go back to the PEC to only get my pictures done, but I also wouldn’t hesitate to hire her travel to shoot my next photos. Don’t even think twice.

Ryan Krawczyk

Holly was amazing for our maternity shoot. She keeps everything fun and light with her energy. She got our pictures back to us quickly and they were stunning. Highly recommend.

Meaghan O'Connor

We truly cannot say enough great things about our experience with Holly! We recently did our engagement photos with her and she made the experience so much fun, natural, and playful. She was able to capture us perfectly and we truly had a blast along the way. Cannot wait to see what magic she creates at our wedding next year!

fanof29

We had a wonderful Fall Photoshoot with Mackenzie! We didn't feel rushed and we were confident in her abilities. She was sweet and gave us direction well. Couldn't be happier!

Caitlin Hian-Cheong

Hiring Holly, Kate and William was the best decision we made for our wedding in Prince Edward County! When we received the full gallery, we were speechless. There are so many beautiful photos that we're having difficulty deciding which ones to frame. The turnaround time was also very quick especially at a time where everyone's events are starting to pick up (due to the pandemic). The whole process with Holly has been seamless from communicating with her on what we envisioned to the stress-free wedding day. The team was beyond professional, genuine, fun, personable and the photos/videos are stunning. They managed to capture moments we were not even aware of! I would not hesitate to recommend them and look forward to using them again!

Rachal Renwick

I have had the extraordinary pleasure of being photographed by Holly on 3 different occasions & every single time it was fantastic. She was the photographer at a wedding that I was in & I then had a boudoir shoot with her & just recently she did our first family photos with our 2 month old! She is patient, professional & just all around lovely to work with. She makes you feel comfortable & at ease, especially if you're a tad nervous (she raises your self-confidence BIG time)! I would recommend Holly a thousand times over & I can't wait for the next time our paths cross xo

Chelsea Rowe

Honestly can’t speak enough to how great Holly has been to work with. She is very responsive, genuine and so easy to work with it makes the entire process relaxing and memorable! Can’t wait to have her at my wedding!

william gregory

When I was looking for a photographer I valued two key features above all, skill and personality. Holly's ability to take photos that you will cherish forever literally speak for themselves but what you can't see that well is the type of person Holly is, so please allow me to enlighten you. Holly is by far the kindest, patient and most thoughtful person in the business. She understands that some people can be uncomfortable when getting their photo taken and communicates with you to ensure you feel your best during your shoot. I worked with Holly not only as my photographer but as my business mentor through her other other business King and Kin. Her wealth of knowledge and advice allowed me to take a side hustle and turn it into a full-time job. The only problem you will have when working with Holly is wishing you had more time with her because she leaves every shoot and conversation making you feel happy and energized.

Taylor Grimes-Latta

I just had a Holiday Mini-Session with Holly and it was such a fun experience! She's bubbly, energetic and really males you feel comfortable during the process. Our photos came back within a week of getting them done and they're phenomenal! Can't wait to send them out to family for Christmas. I'll definitely be coming to her again for future shoots and will continue to recommend her to friends and family.

Tonia Ebbers

I have worked with Holly on two occasions so far. My wedding & a branding session for my business. Holly is super responsive, easy to talk to & amazingly talented. Her photos are stunning & I am so so happy that I’ve had the chance to work with her! She makes you feel comfortable during your shoots & always delivers exceptional photos that you’ll cherish forever. Would highly recommend using Holly for your photography needs!!! 10/10.

Courtney McAlpine

Holly recently shot my maternity photos for my husband and I. Throughout the whole process from booking to completion she was nothing but professional and kind. We had not previously had much experience with professional photos, choosing a location, etc. but Holly was able to guide us through the entire process with ease and chose the perfect location for us. Her knowledge and expertise were invaluable, and all of my e-mails sent to her were responded to in a quick and timely manner. I cannot say enough incredible things about our experience working with Holly and we will definitely be booking again with her in the future.

Sheena Baldwin

Holly is an amazing photographer. She has caught some of the most beautiful moments for our family on several occasions. She is highly responsive, professional, and has prepared a wonderful document for her clients that addresses all of the frequently asked questions.

Jacqueline Mathers

Holly has taken countless photos of me over the years. From boudoir, branding & photos of my surprise proposal to the night my husband & I celebrated our elopement - there is no-one else I trust more. She never fails to make us both feel comfortable in front of the camera & when I get a gallery back from Holly, I’m in love with every single photo. She never ceases to amaze me & is frankly just the best energy to be around always. Thank you Holly - for everything that you do!

Miranda Simpson

Holly McMurter is absolutely amazing! My fiance and I live out of town and Holly made it incredibly easy to organize our engagement shoot in the county. She knows amazing locations to fit whatever style you're looking for and makes you feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera (no matter how awkward of a person you are)! Our engagement photos came out fantastic and I cant wait for her to do our wedding photos too!!!

Kyla Akey-Quayle

You cannot go wrong with choosing Holly to do any photo shoot. She is so attentive and caring. I can’t stop looking at my wedding photos. She captured us as a couple perfectly; our personalities shone through the pictures. Her name suits her perfectly, she is holly jolly. I also really appreciate the fact that she asked me what I wanted for my photos and I had so many ideas and she just went with it! So happy we chose her!

Patti O'Brien

Holly has been providing us with professional family photos for a few years now. She is very professional and is sooo great with kids-somehow she is able to make them feel comfortable and get great photos. She is always on time, provides great turn around and we have always been so so pleased with the photos ! We recommend her to everyone !

Amy Rose

Holly and her team are everything. From the earliest days, Holly was a calming presence in our wedding planing process. She helped make our engagement photos deeply personal and as we transitioned our focus to the wedding, she was there to answer every question along the way. The way she has organized the planning process for her clients provides peace of mind and clarity for both parties. She was beyond supportive as we navigated the uncertainties of COVID. When our wedding day finally arrived this July, the care Holly took in capturing our day is something I will always be grateful for. She put me at ease in the hours before the event and made sure that all of the important moments and memories were captured. Our family and friends cannot stop talking about how great she was at the wedding - lovely to work with, and a total pro. They also can't stop talking about how wonderful and special the photos are. I don't know how I will ever decide which ones to print. She and her team are simply the best.

Kaylin Wilkinson

Holly McMurter is an absolute dream of a photographer. She is professional, kind, patient and her quality is second to none. I have had the opportunity to shoot with Holly on two separate occasions (a mini tree farm shoot, and a mini beach shoot) and she consistently provides exceptional service and photographs. We have so many of her photos framed in our home because they are so beautiful and the way the is able to capture those “in-between” moments is such a special memory. I would 1000% recommend Holly to anyone looking for a photographer, you will not be disappointed. Thank-you endlessly to Holly for everything you do to capture these moments for us!

Makala Chapman

Holly took our engagement photos and she was everything we were looking for in a photographer. She is incredibly personable, professional and has a clear talent. I was most impressed with her ability to make us feel comfortable. We aren't photo people and we were worried about feeling awkward. However, Holly knows how to make the photoshoot feel relaxed and fun. She has an exceptional eye for framing and her photos are very light and airy - making the shoot feel fresh and classy. I can guarantee you that you will love your photos. She is a magician with her camera! If talent, professionalism and memories that will last a lifetime are what you're looking for...look no further!

Catherine McIntyre

Holly was so patient and professional and yet fun all at the same time. She has done a few photo sessions for my family and I couldn't be happier with her talent for taking the perfect photos. Thank you Holly, look forward to having you take more photos this year and many to come.

Adam Schueren

We have worked with Holly on multiple occasions over the past several years for our family photos. She is professional, kind, friendly and incredibly patient. She replies to emails promptly and provides you with very helpful suggestions for wardrobe choices and locations for your shoot. She captures our family, and especially our children and their personalities beautifully, and our gallery is always filled with so many incredible images and sent to us well before the date that she promises. Holly always asks if we have all the photo combinations [posed, kids only, etc] that we wanted and always make our sessions fun and easy going. You can tell that Holly really cares about her clients and enjoys what she does! We always recommend her to family and friends.

Megan Kendall

Holly is the absolute best! She is so kind and patient and makes you feel like a million bucks! She makes being in front of the camera such a breeze and I will always always recommend her!!

Tayler Ainsworth

I was first photographed by holly way back in 2015 I want to say, since then she’s seen me a few times and taken pictures of me and made me the girl I am today. It seems cheesy but she made me feel so comfortable and worthy and made me feel gorgeous and like anything was possible and I deserved to be happy. Boudoir and couple sessions are a breeeeze and I’ll never let anyone else photograph me.

Laura Baragar

Holly is professional, kind, and very talented in every regard. I've had the pleasure of working with Holly twice now, and I can say that I not only love the pictures that she took, but I genuinely enjoyed the time spent during the photoshoots! If you need a photography, you can't get better than Holly McMurter Photographs.

McIntyre Vaughan & CO Real Estate Talks

Holly has literally photographed my life from my prom to my business portfolio shoot, my engagement shoot an upcoming family Christmas shoot as well as my wedding. So I can tell ya, 10/10 (obviously) recommend. Holly’s talent is breathtaking and her energy is radiant. She makes you feel incredibly comfortable in front the camera and honestly, photo shoots are my new favourite thing because of her!! If you use Holly as a photographer not only will it guarantee a killer photo shoot, but also a lifelong friend. You’re the best holls. Xo

Danielle DeMille

Holly is a breath of fresh air ! Not only is she very sweet and humble , but very professional and knowledgeable! She told me exactly what I needed to do and made me feel very comfortable ! I Can’t wait to book her for more events !

Anna Fraiberg

We just got our photos back from our holiday mini session with Holly and I’m so in love with them! We’re having such a hard time deciding on some to get framed, and we might even make a Christmas card to send around to our family (yes, we’re going to be that cheesy couple this year). It was our first time having professional photos taken together and Holly made it so fun and comfortable – even with our 11-month-old pup running around!

Jocelyn Bovay

Holly is an incredibly talented photographer. She brings your vision to life in a way that you've only dreamed about. We had Holly and Kate for our wedding, as well as Holly did our engagement photos and man oh man were we not disappointed! She captured every special moment of our day, and moments I don't even remember happening. Holly pours her heart and soul into making sure you have photos that will keep your memories alive to last a lifetime. She makes you feel comfortable, relaxed and makes the whole process so easy for you. If you haven't booked her yet for your wedding, or even just a session for yourself, don't wait any longer! You will be SO happy you did.
