During our 3-month engagement period, my then-fiancé-now-husband and I scrolled through numerous portfolios. Wedding industry is a world of its own, and in the realm of photography, certain formulaic themes start to emerge as you scroll through the images. We wanted to find a professional photographer who can tastefully go off the road a bit. We came across Merri’s work with musicians, and were struck by the edgy beauty and artistry. (I’m a classically trained musician, and her artist portraits are what initially caught my attention.) While we weren’t quite sure how that would translate in the highly prescriptive and vanilla world of wedding, our engagement photoshoot with Merri quelled any uncertainty we had. She catches emotions, light, and action beautifully. The subjects’ poses may leave much to be desired, but her work somehow yields natural and intimate images – whether taken in portraiture or photojournalistic style. On our wedding day, both Merri and Mark, her second photographer, were joy to work/be with. After the celebratory dust settles, images are what remain. That, and love and bills. We are very much looking forward to seeing her work.

Great job Merri Cyr Photography--they delivered wonderful photos quickly, were highly professional, friendly, and reasonably priced. We really enjoyed working with them, and recommend Merri and her partner for your event--the photos looked very natural and truly captured the happiness of our day. Thank you Merri Cyr Photography!!!

Merri Cyr Photography is an excellent bet for your wedding. I was impressed with everything. We met once to discuss my requests and then again at the event. Merri was more than prompt--she arrived early and was flexible when plans didn't go as I thought they would (had to start off in our hotel instead of my venue due to another event ending later than scheduled).

The photos were just beautiful. I had asked for attention to detail and nothing too posed--I definitely got that! When I checked in with Merri the week of my wedding, she emailed back the same day. She is very responsive. The value is one of the best around from my research.

I highly recommend Merri Cyr Photography.
