Hey There, I'm Malyssa Quay
boudoir & Wedding photographer
Hudson Valley, NY
With a background in Information Technology and a penchant for rocking glasses, I'm not your typical nerd.
People often describe me as that laid-back chick whose energy helps everyone feel at ease—probably because I'm one of the most empathic, people-pleasing old souls you'll meet.
Your go-to Boudoir & Wedding photographer
I'm all about capturing those genuine moments that tell your unique story.
Whether we're crafting magic during your engagement shoot, immortalizing your wedding day, or celebrating your self-love journey, my goal is to capture your true natural beauty.
To achieve that, we need to banish any worries about looking awkward in our photos and focus on being present in the moment. How do we do that? By becoming the greatest of friends, of course!
At porch time tea time (IYKYK), everyone in the Hudson Valley, NY agrees.
You're not just a client; you're and I want our friendship to outlast the final click of the shutter. Think of it as being the main character in my favorite show, and I’m more obsessed with everything about you than a Swifty is for Taylor.
Hi, it's me—your favorite photographer, obnoxious hype woman, free unofficial therapist, and a constant reminder that you are, indeed, the bomb dot com—it’s me.
When I'm not starring in my one-woman reality show—M Quay Photography—you can find me on my back deck with Lady Sativa, soaking up Dermot Kennedy and Taylor Swift on my 'on repeat' playlist. Coffee is my favorite flavor of water, 'Friends' is my comfort binge-watch, and Nikon is the brand I married over 15 years ago when I fell in love with photography (and we're still going strong).
For those curious for more, here a few things you might not know about me:
I'm still addicted to The Sims game, eagerly awaiting The Sims 5.
When I edit, I prefer Christian music or movie scores for that super relaxing vibe.
I don't like going on rollercoasters or to amusement parks in general.
I've never been stung by a bee.
Pizza is overrated to me—it's one of my least favorite foods.
More than just a Hudson Valley Boudoir & Wedding Photographer...
