Melissa was amazing! I had never hired a photographer and I cannot say enough great things about her. She made us feel so comfortable like it was one of our close friends taking the pictures! We got the pictures back quickly and I’m in love with her work! I found her on wedding wire because I don’t live in Maine and I’m so happy I chose her. I would travel back up to Maine just to have her do our photos again.

Melissa was so great! She did both our engagement and wedding photos. She was so professional and also made us feel so comfortable, even when we felt super awkward getting our picture taken! She was always quick to respond to emails, super organized, reasonably priced, and of course takes beautiful photos! We are so excited to see the rest of our wedding pictures in a few weeks!!

Melissa is incredible! We recently got our wedding photos and they are fantastic! We were so happy with the quality of her work and the way that she helped keep everything running smoothly on our wedding day. She was a lot of fun to work with and was more than willing to walk us through the whole photography process (which we knew nothing about). We highly recommend Melissa!!

Melissa is AMAZING!!! We just got our pictures back from our wedding and we couldn't be happier with them. She captured every moment and reviewing the pictures is like reliving the day. From our first conversation, to our engagement photo session, to wedding prep, and day of, she was upbeat, totally calm, prepared, and thorough. She made sure both myself and partner were comfortable in front of the camera and gave us subtle direction on how to make our pictures perfect. And she was so great with our pup! I can't say enough good things about our time spent with Melissa and would recommend her services in a heartbeat.

We already loved Melissa just from our email and phone correspondence - meeting her in real life just further cemented our satisfaction with our photographer choice. She LOVES, LOVES, LOVES being a photographer, her enthusiasm for us and our big day was heart-warming and her attention to detail and extensive planning process ensured we got a zillion fabulous photos and then some. She sends questionnaires in the beginning to determine the style you are going for in your photos, then again a month before the big day so she knows everything she needs to know, like who's divorced, who's deceased, how to pronounce your family member's names, etc this attention to detail is not just comforting and sweet it is incredibly professional. She had never shot a wedding at our venue so she went out of her way to visit and determine the best spots for the best light and backgrounds. She convinced our wedding party to climb a rocky hill and sort-of-kind-of break into a garage for what are some of the most amazing photos ever. Her website is easy to navigate and her rates are reasonable for the area with package levels for various budgets. We already talk about how someday we will go visit her for family photos with our future children! Looking for a wedding photographer (not just Maine - she travels!), stop looking and call Melissa!

Melissa is a professional in every sense of the word! She managed to make me feel completely at home in front of the camera - which is not like me at all! She has a great personality, knows her business and takes spectacular photographs. You can tell she loves what she does and she knows how to get you looking your best. I would use her again in a heart beat!

Melissa Mullen thank you again for capturing the best day of our lives perfectly!! She has an amazing personality. She is down to earth and so professional. She has the gift of making you feel completely at ease. I had no idea what to expect on my wedding day and Melissa blew me away. She arrived right on time and was ready to roll. I was nervous,giddy and all over the place and she took charge in the most delicate way. My guests all raved about her calm manner and her ability to get everyone to smile and feel relaxed. One of her assistants came along and she was wonderful as well. To top off the phenominal experience we had with Melissa on our wedding day were the pictures, they are absolutely stunning! Everyone who has seen our photos has had the same reaction--Oh my god these are gorgeous! We are beyond pleased and highly recommend Melissa Mullen Photography to anyone!! Thank you again Melissa!! :)

I had the pleasure to work with Melissa and her assistant, Ashley at a recent wedding. She was great to work with. Easy to communicate with in a hectic environment. I was surprised to find her on a chair BEHIND me taking photo's of the packed dance floor. I look forward to the proofs! Dave Winsor
