Melissa was our wedding photographer, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The photos? Stunning. She has an incredible ability to capture candid moments—the kind you don’t even remember happening until you see them and they take your breath away. Whether it was a stolen glance between us during the ceremony or a little touch from my partner in the middle of the reception, she got it all. Melissa also went above and beyond when it came to family photos. My mom had quite a few specific requests (many, many groupings of siblings, cousins, etc.), and Melissa was so gracious and patient throughout the whole process. She didn’t just make us look good in the pictures, she made us feel comfortable while taking them, which, as two people who don’t love being in front of the camera, was a huge gift. I can’t recommend her highly enough for anyone who wants a photographer who’s not only talented but also makes the experience enjoyable.

From the very beginning, Melissa was amazing. Over the phone she got to know us, our vision for our big day, and even helped organize the wedding timeline. She was extremely professional and organized, and her photos are truly some of the best I have ever seen. She seamlessly captures candids, traditional photos, detail shots, and everything in between. The best part was the sneak peak that she delivered the very next day - she will never know how special it was to be able to share the photos and re-live our wedding the very next day. MELISSA IS INCREDIBLE.

My wife and I loved working with Melissa for our wedding. Leading up to the wedding, Melissa went out of her way to get to know us and understand what we wanted from a photographer. We had a great time taking our engagement photos and they turned out incredible!

On the wedding day, Melissa was super on top of things, making sure she captured all the posed shots that we wanted as well as getting the candids. She turned around the finished pictures in just a couple weeks and we can't stop looking through the photo collections! We'd definitely recommend Melissa as a photographer for weddings or any other occasion!

Melissa was incredible to work with and is so talented! She captured so many beautiful portraits while also finding a way to show the joy, excitement, and emotion in each photo. She is communicative, reliable, and organized. She is exactly who you want with you throughout your day, guiding you through beautifully posed portraits and somehow being everywhere all at once to capture candid moments with each other as a couple and with your friends and family. I can't recommend her enough!

We are so happy that we hired Melissa as our photographer for our wedding. She prioritizes getting to know the couple, not only to discover our wants and expectations for photos, but also to learn about our history and understand the story she wants to capture. We felt like she was already a close friend after meeting her once. We as a couple are not the most comfortable in front of a camera, so we were overjoyed when Melissa created such a fun environment for us during our engagement photoshoot. The photos came out stunning, and there was not an awkward pose to be found! In addition to her work that speaks for itself, Melissa was in regular contact with us throughout the wedding planning process. She is quick to respond and has tons of helpful advice from her many years of working in the industry. She helped us put our wedding day timeline together, came to see the venue with us, and answered all our questions. Melissa was so efficient and professional on our wedding day which helped us maximize our time with our guests. She took amazing photos throughout the day, capturing the complete picture of our wedding that we love to look through regularly. Amazingly, she continued working even after the wedding just to provide us with a wonderful sneak peek album that she shared with us before the night had ended! We were shocked by how quickly she worked to get all of the pictures back to us. Our family and friends also had nothing but lovely things to say about Melissa. They loved interacting with her during the day and have all been thoroughly impressed by the photos she captured. We can’t wait to work with her again!

I can’t say enough good things about Melissa, she truly made our wedding day!! It started with doing engagement photos together and she really took the time to get to know us and our story and made us feel so comfortable. I genuinely consider Melissa a friend and could not imagine anyone else photographing our wedding. Not only we’re the photos exactly what we asked for but they were so much more. Melissa captured the true vision and energy of our day and I will cherish these photos forever. On top of all of that, she also got them back to us in two weeks!!!! She is so talented at what she does and has an incredible personality to match.

We literally cannot recommend Melissa enough. Not only did she make us feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera (not always an easy feat) but she captured such incredible moments at our wedding. Literally everybody has commented on how amazing our photographer was. She is so professional and makes the whole process so seamless. Her photos really captured what the day felt like. Truly truly look no further - Melissa is the best!!!

I cannot recommend Melissa enough. From the first phone call she was understanding of our priorities and was flexible in putting together a package that fit our needs. She is incredibly professional and personable and put us at ease immediately. She went above and beyond in finding a great spot for our first look and even offered to photograph an impromptu ceremony we ended up putting together when we found out my father couldn't come to our wedding. When it came time for photos, she gave clear directions and was very efficient while also making it fun (for two people who really don't like having pictures taken of us). She made family photos a breeze. And then she gave us a TON of gorgeous sneak peek photos by midnight the night of our wedding. Seriously. I cannot recommend her enough. She's incredible.

I knew from our first call that Melissa was the photographer for me! During our first consult we talked for over an hour. I love her photo and her eye to detail but love her personality more. Melissa is professional, knows when to get people to pay attention but is warm hearted and looks for the special details to make your day the best that it can be. We didn't do an engagement shoot but were able to get dinner with her a few days before our wedding which made the day that much easier; it's like shooting photos with an old friend. With a massive group (8 groomsman, 4 ushers, 6 bridesmaids) and a lot of family photo requests, she was able to keep everything moving... even though I was over an hour behind with hair and makeup.

Melissa turned our photos on a dime and I forever thankful for this. We had our photos within 3 weeks and 2 weeks later, we lost my mother-in-law. During our time with her, we went through all the photos, marked some of her favorites and had them printed to be in her room so she could be surrounded by our special day.

I will forever be thankful for Melissa and our photos and would recommend her to anyone and everyone!

If I could select 10 stars, I would! Melissa is an incredibly talented, experienced, and special photographer and person. Booking her for our wedding was the absolute best decision we could have made. She makes such an effort to get know you and your significant other during the wedding planning process, and in the end she becomes a dear friend. She is such a pro when it comes to her craft - she captures all the right moments in all the best ways, gives you a ton of direction so that you look your absolute best and most authentic, and makes you feel extremely comfortable and supported. Both our engagement shoot and wedding photo albums absolutely blew me away. I cannot recommend her ENOUGH! We love Melissa!!
