Melanie worked my wedding this past weekend. She was efficient, thoughtful, and quick to respond to emails (which, to me, is very important). Additionally, on day of the Wedding she helped organized the day with her "Run of Show." When mom's starting taking pictures during the first look and pre-ceremony pictures, she was gracefully able to encourage them to leave. And believe me, you might want that to happen to you. Melanie is a great addition to your wedding day!

I almost never give reviews, but after Melanie Reyes Photography took pictures of our wedding, I have to. Melanie blew us all out of the water- she was super flexible even though we were over thirty minutes late on almost everything (including arriving to our own wedding), she was AMAZING at moving through family pictures quickly (and we both had large families (50+ people)), she made us feel natural even though we aren’t big picture people, she offered to stay late without us asking in order to get enough pictures because we had run late, she took time to get lots of pictures of our guests, worked well with our other vendors, thought of details I never would have, had water and tissues on hand when I did not, and took time to learn people’s individual names as well as who in the wedding party had significant others with whom they might want pictures. Melanie’s second shooter, Deana, was equally amazing- she made us relaxed, had a great eye for detail/ noticed the little moments, and was such a bright, peaceful presence. Not only does the Melanie Reyes photography team take great pictures, they elevate the entire day (even when it doesn’t seem like it’s possible). Thank you Melanie Reyes Photography!

If I had to describe Melanie in three words, I'd say she was flexible, joyful, and professional in her work. She tastefully captured our ceremony while somehow staying invisible, she was so easy to talk to about my preferences and the schedule of the day, and she has the knowledge and skills to take good shots. I hoped my photographer would just "know" when to take a picture, and just "see" the special moments, and Melanie does both.
