Meet Mariel

This blog is a small representation of my most current sessions, my clients love stories and all the adventures I am privilaged to go on! Ways to my heart include coffee, feeding me before I am "hangry" and anything shabby chic/rustic. My vintage camera collection grows everday and I am usually smiling and quoting random movies. Most importantly Mariel O. Photo celebrates love in all forms regardless of race, religion, or sexual orientation & gender identity.

Courtney & Matt | Backyard in Broad Brook

Backyards make the best venues! This wedding wouldn't have been made possible without the love and support of family and friends. All the details came together perfectly from the polaroid snapshots to the delicious clambake and lobster for dinner!

Kathryn & Timmy | A Downtown Wedding

The weather had threats of thunderstorms right during portrait time but on my drive up to Union Station in Northampton, Massachusetts it stormed for 5 minutes at the boarder and cleared right up. The sun came full force and brought the humidity too!

Ashley & Korey | Anthony's Ocean View

Another Covid couple couldn't keep them from getting married and starting their forever together. There were many changes prior to this day from venues to amount of coverage but the day turned out just as they hoped. My regular second shooter and friend, Courtney did a great job capturing these for me on my behalf.

Sarah & Robby | Shelton Ceremony

This wedding is my first for 2020! I can't believe we are in June and I am saying that but we all know that this virus had put a damper on celebrations and gatherings this year. I want to commend my couples for being just the most chill people and handling the change in plans with grace. I can't say I would be this way if it were me!

Wedding Day Soundtrack

There have been so many projects going on lately, adding this styled shoot was something else that worked out perfectly.

Wadsworth Mansion | Purple Spring Styled Shoot

It is such a perk to living in a town that has the history of Wadsworth Mansion at my doorstep. Driving up the tree lined driveway and seeing the pillars always is such a stunning view. The weather was very refreshing at 45 degree considering Mother Nature has been playing hot and cold with us with the temps
