About

I believe in that warm flock of butterflies feeling in your belly when you are in love. I get that feeling everytime I meet a couple who feels the same way.

I believe in adoration and connection.

I believe that love never fails. That's why it is important to me to be part of the start of that journey with couples from the engagement to the wedding day.

There aren't enough words to express how much we loved having Melania as our wedding photographer! From the moment we first talked with her, we knew she was going to be perfect. At our engagement photo session, she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera almost instantly. She worked with us throughout the planning process to make sure she knew exactly what would be going on the day of our wedding so that she wouldn't miss a beat. Your wedding photographer is someone you spend almost as much time with on your wedding day as your bride/groom (if not more!), and she has a spark and personality that is just great to be around. Her eye for the perfect shot and her ability to take breathtakingly beautiful photos is why we first chose her to be our wedding photographer, but she as a person is the reason we felt like we made a lifetime friend. Look no further and book Melania!!

Oh where do I start?! I first met Melania at a friends wedding. As soon as I saw the pictures from that wedding I was sold! She was the first vendor I booked as soon as I got engaged! Our meetings turned into fun girl chat Starbucks dates! We got business done and also became friends! She is so good at what she does and has amazing talent! Come my wedding day I felt like I had a friend photographing my wedding! My bridal party also loved her as well! I've had a few friends ask who my awesome photographer was and how cool and nice she is, but at the same time how awesome her work is! If you're looking for a warm, compassionate, dedicated, easy to work with photographer and friend, she is your girl! I would book her again and again! She will be taking our family photos come spring and we cant wait!

Much love!

WE ARE!

Melania was AMAZING! From the first time I met her, I knew she would be perfect. My husband and I had so, so much fun with her during our engagement photos. For us, this was a shock. We both weren't super excited about doing them and thought it would be awkward. Melania made it so relaxed and fun. Then of course when we got the pictures back, we were so very thankful to have done the shoot. They were AWESOME! That got us very excited for the wedding and eased a lot of my stress. I knew she would deliver and take care of us day of. And that she did! We got our pictures back on Thanksgiving!! Who does that?! An awesome business woman and friend :) Needless to say, the pictures are breathtaking. We could not be happier. Our friends and families are very impressed as well. I look forward to working with Melania in the future for special events and highly recommended her to every bride! Thank you so much for everything!!

Melania was the most amazing photographer ever! She has such a talent for photography - it's unbelievable. She also gave fantastic tips throughout the day to make sure we all looked our best. I could not have asked for a better photographer and would recommend her a MILLION times over.

Melania was absolutely amazing at everything she did! She was quick to respond if I had a question and was always cheery and in a great mood! Her pictures were phenomenal and we even got a ton of comments about how wonderful she was from our guests! She has great ideas and was very open to listening to what we wanted as well! She even did a group picture of all of my dads side for us! She is very flexible with her meetings and was always on time and even early for everything! She got right to work when she got there but still made time for fun! She even watched the radar for us to make sure we weren't gonna get soaked while taking our outside pictures! We were so comfortable with her and she made it so easy to trust her! I would definitely recommend her to everyone I see!!

My husband and I booked Melania for our wedding and are so thankful that we did. Her and her partner Chad (who drive 6 hours just to shoot our special day) did an absolutely phenomenal job. They were showing the guests some of the previews of the photos that they took and everyone was so happy with the quality and how the pictures looked. I loved that she uploaded the pictures of us getting ready and the ceremony to her Ipad and had it on display for the quests to view, I know all of our guests enjoyed that as well. We are so pleased with the way she works. She is so laid back and likes to have a good time, which makes it 10x easier for us. We felt so comfortable around her, she is more like a friend than just a photographer. A few of our guests are planning on booking her for future shoots of their own, they were so happy with the way she shoots. This is the 3rd time she has done our pictures and I honestly will probably not ever pick anyone else, I am so pleased with the way things went. At our last meeting with Melania, she asked what I needed help with. She was so helpful in making sure we had everything done for our special day. She was like a wedding planner and photographer in one. We honestly cannot express enough how awesome Melania is. We would recommend her to ANYONE & EVERYONE! People say that she may be a little pricey, but for the quality of the photos, I am willing to pay that. You get what you pay for! So glad we chose Melania to shoot our day!

Melania was hands down our favorite vendor out of all for our wedding!! I cannot say enough wonderful things about her as a photographer, and just as a kind person to be around. From day-one she listened to my ideas and brought her own creative ideas to the table. She had such a wonderful energy and was a true delight to work with. We had to reschedule our engagement shoot twice, and she was always flexible and easy going. We had such a wonderful time (yes, even my husband) at our engagement picture. Melania was on time delivering our photos and we were blown away by them all. Beautiful shots, some posed, some more candid. She is an expert at capturing the light and making every photo stunning. She also is great at finding ways to capture every couple she photographs to showcase their individuality. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, she was always quick to respond to an email, and we had a great give-and-take regarding scheduling and wedding details, leading up to the day of the wedding. At the wedding, she was the perfect person to keep by your side throughout the day. She was upbeat and cheerful, but still practical about timing and details throughout the day. Her second shooter, Jane, was also a great addition. Both ladies were present whenever they were needed, but knew how to blend in when it was called for. Melania also had a slideshow of images from earlier in the day for guest to view during the reception – what a great treat! (Not to mention a tease for me wanting to see the rest of the images!!) I would recommend her to anyone at all as a top of the line photographer who is a true delight to work with – I plan to use her again for photograph needs in the future!!
