Choosing Melissa Diane Photography for our wedding was the absolute best decision ever! I couldn’t be happier with how our wedding (and engagement) pictures turned out. You spend so much time on your wedding day taking tons of photos, and Melissa and Chuck made it so much fun and effortless.

We hired Melissa to be our wedding photographer and she was amazing! She provided us the right amount of simple instructions to get the best poses, even when we had no photo/posing experience. She provided a complimentary engagement photo shoot to get to know her and her style before the wedding and has a great list of picturesque spots around Charlottesville to do so. Those pictures were taken during sunset and turned out stunning, so we knew every special moment would be captured perfectly during the wedding. Her assistant Chuck also did a great job on wedding day. They had a structured plan to get posed photos completed efficiently, so that we could enjoy more of our special day. She has a great eye for angles and incorporating light naturally. Melissa had quick turnaround with the photo gallery after 3 weeks, editing over 1000 photos! The editing highlighted every small detail that we missed when we were busy being the center of attention and allows us to relive that day from a different point of view. We are forever grateful to have chosen Melissa and glad she will be a part of our memories forever.

We had an incredible experience with Melissa and her assistant!!! She was so easy to communicate with from the beginning. She includes an engagement shoot in her package which helped us get more comfortable in front of the camera with her. Melissa and her assistant did an INCREDIBLE job capturing our wedding day! They come very prepared and help make everything run smoothly and efficiently so we had plenty of time to spend with our guests as well!
