It was such a gift to have Mae come into our home to take (maternity) photos of our family, capturing a glimpse of our everyday, in a way that was artful and beautiful. I feel so awkward in front of the camera but she put me completely at ease. She urged us not to smile at the camera but to just be ourselves. She talked with us throughout the shoot and it felt like connecting with an old friend. She captured authentic connections between us and that is what I treasure most of all. These are the moments I want to remember forever, not a staged photoshoot in a field where everyone forces a smile at the camera. I couldn't be happier with Mae's work. She is a true artist. Mae also did a portfolio review of my work as a photographer. Her feedback was so important and so helpful. She was honest and didn't sugar coat anything - and that helped me grow. After her review, I submitted my portfolio for a designation called CM Pro. I had previously been rejected. This time I was accepted. I couldn't recommend her more - as a photographer or as a photography mentor. read more

I can't even begin to say how much I loved working with Mae Burke of Mae Burke Photography. Mae took my maternity pictures and at a time when even my wrists felt fat she put me at ease and made me feel as though I was the most beautiful woman in the world. I was absolutely dreading our session (as no one likes to take pictures of themselves when they don't feel their best), but after she met with me the day before to discuss outfits and the final details I knew I was in good hands. The session was truly one of the best experiences. My husband and I left feeling so full of her infectious joy and as though we had made a lifelong friend in Mae. Our pictures are indescribably beautiful and I cannot wait to schedule our next session. Mae has created a lifelong client in me and my family. Do yourself a favor and look no further! read more

Mae is a wonderful photographer, and we are so relieved we chose her to capture our elopement and family memories at Port Aransas beach! Mae is very talented, creative, and kind, and she immediately put us all at ease with her charming and easy going personality. She sent us sneak peek photos right after our ceremony to send to friends and family members, and we didn't have to wait long until our beautiful and cherished photos were sent to us for printing. Her photos captured our special day in a magical, unique, meaningful, unforgettable, and artistic style. We highly recommend Mae Burke for any of your photography needs! read more

Mae is so fun to work with!! We wanted some family pictures and she made the entire process so perfect. The pictures were incredible and I feel like they captured such precious and sweet memories. She was great at helping us figure out a vision for what we wanted, helped me figure out clothes, picked a great location, and was just an all around delight to work with! She took some of my favorite photos I have ever seen of my kids, I'll always be grateful! read more

Absolutely LOVE Mae Burke Photography!! Not only does she have the cutest personality but she is really fun and down to earth to work with. She has been taking my family photos since 2012 and I can honestly say no one else has taken my family photos since. I can't think of anyone else who I would want to capture these precious moments for me. I have already booked her for a family session this fall in FW. Can't wait!! read more
