Hiring Melina was the best thing that we did for our wedding. For background, we decided to secretly elope in February, shoot our engagement pics in April, and finally have our wedding in September.

From the start, Melina was so kind and informative and she helped us create a plan from the start. On the day of our elopement, she picked the perfect spot for our first look, and she guided us through the entire photoshoot. We didn't know how to pose but Melina was on it! She got to know our family and was very kind with them too.

After our photoshoot, we were impatiently waiting for our gallery and Melina sent a few previews our way. All I can say is we were in AWE of how beautiful she captured us and our families. Melina is also incredible at being so receptive to feedback and editing requests. Of course we compensated her for her time, but she was able to edit our gallery in a different tone at a reasonable price and turnaround time.

We then hired her for our engagement shoot, which was perfect! She got to know more about or posing style there as well and the DTLA backdrop was perfect! Melina knows the best spots for shoots. The beautiful engagement pictures were used in our wedding website and our families loved our pictures so much they were moved to tears.

Finally, the big day arrived! We had two locations that day: a chapel by the beach known as Wayfarer's Chapel, and a DTLA tropical-esque venue known as Millwick. Going from airy, daylight, whimsical to a more romantic moody vibe was a challenge in itself. Melina heard our requests and delivered the gallery of our dreams.

She put together a mood board that helped us see her vision and also was super great throughout the year as we sent her our own IG posts, pinterest pics and so on.
