your creative director for tomorrow’s memories.
Hi, I’m Madelyn,
I work with couples who are passionate about artfully documenting their memories and don’t want their wedding day to feel like one big photo shoot.
I create artful, cinematic, and documentary(ish) imagery for cool people in love. I work with couples who are looking for an unhurried and authentic-to-you elopement or micro-wedding experience where no detail goes unnoticed.
As someone who originally learned photography on film rather than digital, I’ve embraced the idea of slowing down as I shoot, so that each photograph feels like a work of art. This is the basis of my approach to weddings – each day starts with intentional planning to make sure we are creating a day that flows with you, instead of rushing you along.
I believe access to film photography should never come at an additional cost to you. Every wedding, elopement, and session is shot on a hybrid of digital and 35mm film, with options for medium format and super 8 video as well. If the film experience is not a priority to you, I understand I may not be the right photographer for everyone.
Ultimately, the experience I want for you is to work with a photographer who gets YOU.
If this sounds like you, let’s connect. I’ll make sure you get photos that you’ll actually want to show your grandkids.
I believe that we are all uniquely handcrafted in the image of God, and that as those who are made in the image of the Creator, we are also designed to create. It is my desire to create with authenticity and honesty, crafting images that are as thoughtfully designed as you are.
It is not in spite of my identity as a follower of Christ, but rather because of it, it is my mission that Colozza Creative Studios would be and always remain a safe space. This space is LGBTQ+ friendly, and I will always embrace friends of all backgrounds, gender identities, orientations, faiths, and communities. I am honored to celebrate you for you, and welcome you as you are, always.
You belong here <3
