Gardner Wedding Review

We loved working with Melinna and her team for our wedding! Our wedding spanned the world with my husband initially being 5,000 miles away and she met with us several times via zoom before the wedding to discuss the vision we both had in mind, but she never once made it feel difficult to communicate or get together as it easily could’ve. She shared pictures and video ideas all throughout the following months that inspired some truly beautiful moments that she captured on our big day! I told her my dream to have a timeless elegance from mixing old Hollywood glamour with romantic floral designs and she absolutely nailed those shots! She even captured a moment I will never forget a video of doing a first look with my grandfather because my father wasn’t there for my big day and I’ll still cry each time I watch it. My husband is also disabled and she was so easy to work with, giving us poses that made him feel comfortable and confident! We’re so excited to see what happens with Melinna and her journey as a photographer and as her team grows! We will definitely be using her again in all our major life events to come! Check out our gallery on her website and you’ll see what I mean!

They captured her essence✨

We had the most wonderful experience with Melinna and Kai for my daughter’s Senior Graduation Photos. They suggested the most stunning location that suited my daughter perfectly and the entire session felt relaxed fun and completely effortless. Their warmth and easygoing approach immediately put her at ease and made her feel comfortable and confident which shines through each shot. They didn’t just take beautiful photos, they truly captured her essence. This is a milestone moment we will treasure forever. We are beyond grateful and would recommend them without hesitation.

We’re kinda OBSESSED

From the very first moment we saw Melinna and Kai’s work, our breath was taken away. Their photographs don’t just capture images—they capture feelings. Every wedding they document radiates emotion, yet each one remains beautifully unique, like a living story frozen in time. We knew instantly that they had to be the ones to capture our day.
After our first consultation, we were completely sold. Their warmth and authenticity shone through immediately—we laughed together like old friends, and it was clear they weren’t just photographers, but true artists with hearts of gold. Even though we’re not the most comfortable in front of a camera, Melinna and Kai made the entire experience feel effortless, natural, and joyful.
On our wedding day, they didn’t just take photos—they gave us memories we’ll treasure forever. Every frame is infused with the love, laughter, and emotion of the day. Looking back at our gallery, we’re overwhelmed with gratitude and happiness.
Choosing DeMartiniWeddings was the best decision we made. Melinna and Kai are not only extraordinary photographers, but extraordinary people. We couldn’t be happier, and we’ll cherish their artistry for a lifetime.

12/10 Would Hire Again

We honestly cannot say enough good things about DeMartini Weddings. From the very first consultation, we knew we had to have them as our photographers. Throughout the entire process they offered invaluable insight, helping us shape our timeline and refine our, admittedly ambitious, plans. Every time we wanted to add a new wrinkle or layer of complexity to the day, they were not only willing to accommodate, but were genuinely excited about our ideas.

They were the first photographers we spoke with who were truly stoked about our crazy plan. They were excited to drive 10 hours across the desert, hike through dry riverbeds, and pull over on the side of the road at a moment’s notice, all in pursuit of the perfect shot to capture our special day.
They were then willing to drive back and photograph our reception, which was only two days later (that means a full day of driving, then a full day of shooting, then the day of driving back, before the reception photos). Through this they were so patient and again, so down for anything and everything we had in mind. Their eye for details and framing made the photos magical and their instruction made it so simple for us.

The wedding video was such a nice addition to the photos and is something we are so excited to look back at in years to come. The quiet ambience captures the energy of the day that was so so important for us. There's nothing quite like being able to watch back intimate moments with the people you love. There are clips of us looking at one another that could never have been captured by pictures alone and watching them back together was like being there all over again. Preserving these important moments for us and our families was even more special than we had ever expected it to be.

We asked for a lot between pictures, videography, compilation, and editing, and I'm truly so stoked and over the moon with what we received. After seeing our full album and how they captured the day, I'm happy to say that their work is on a whole other level. I could go on and on about the editing and how warm and inviting our photos look, or the staging and how natural and beautiful we were all made to look, but I'm afraid I don't have the vocabulary to properly express myself. What I can say is, Mili and Kai's incredible work speaks for itself. We are so glad we were able to collaborate with the DeMartini's and would choose them again and again if we could.
