if you are looking for a photographer that is professional, dedicated, artistic and affordable, then Misty is who you are looking for! From start to finish, Misty has been great to work with. Her photography style meshed with our styles. She provided the standard formal photos but also has a great eye which turned out amazing in the candid photos. She and her assistants captured many great moments at our wedding that we'll be talking about for years to come. She even included some photos in color and black & white.

I wanted something different for my wedding. Not the standard/boring wedding photos and Misty brought an artistic view that I was looking for. They only regret I have is not having her there for the entire reception.

When my wedding day approached, I found myself in the unique position of having to hire a photographer, being a photographer myself. If my fiance' let me, I would have formulated some kind of cockamamie scheme to take my own wedding pictures. Well, once reality set in, my decision was quick. I knew I wanted Misty. Of all the local photographers I have gotten to know through my own work in the industry, I was convinced that Misty was the best choice for me. She was the only one that I could trust to get everything that I knew I wanted captured on my special day, while maintaining a level of friendly professionalism. I knew of her experience, and trusted her expertise. So much so that, much to my fiance's surprise, I was able to relax on my wedding day, not become crazy-psycho-control-freak photographer, and know that Misty had everything under control, and that she would deliver exactly what I envisioned for my own wedding pictures. And she did. The final product was just what I was looking for and I could not have asked for a more perfect capture of the day. If you are looking for experience, creativity, know-how, and professionalism, Misty is your girl. All through my engagement people joked about how they would hate to be my photographer, knowing how critical I am, being a photographer myself. I wasn't worried. Neither was Misty. She simply did what she does best, and I got amazing wedding day pictures as a result. If you want to buy a new car, you ask your mechanic's advice. If you want to do a triathlon, you get a personal trainer's guidance. As a wedding photographer myself, my standards are high. So I chose Misty. Take it from me, a professional, you will not be disappointed!

It was truly a pleasure to work with Misty. Her top-notch photography captured the spirit of my wedding with nuanced emotion. Romance, elegance, anticipation, joy, funky free-spiritedness: she has an eye and a feel for all of it. She made my husband and I feel very comfortable in front of the camera (no easy feat), and it wasn't too long before we didn't even notice she was there. We were able to just relax and be ourselves.

Her skills go beyond photography, too. Because Misty is so experienced, she was helped us get a feel for our timeline and how the entire wedding would flow. She even gave me a great last-minute idea for how to use the embroidered flowers I had saved from my grandmother's wedding veil. What an eye for detail! I would recommend Misty without hesitation to anyone looking for a photographer in the DE/PA area.

Misty Dawn was fabulous! I honestly couldn't have asked for more from my photographer. She was fun, professional, and her pictures are absolutely gorgeous. I have already recommended her to everyone I know. And all our guests just drooled over our pictures. Can't say enough good things!

Misty was really open to all of our ideas and she had put together an amazing interpretation of our wedding day! Every time I look at the pictures she took, I remember stories, laughter, and love throughout the entire day. It was a momentous occasion that Misty successfully captured on film as a very personal event instead of just another stuffy formal affair. Thank you, Misty for capturing all of the feeling in our celebration!

I've seen Misty in action for several weddings that I've performed. She's great at capturing every moment, but stays "behind the scenes" & isn't obtrusive. She's wonderful to work with & I'm sure her couples are equally happy with the end result.

I worked with Misty at the Farmhouse at Peoples Light on 5/15/10. She was a joy to work with! Videographers work very close with photographers during the wedding day and Misty's professionalism made our job so much easier. She was very laid back, but still got the work done. She respected our needs and we did the same. We highly recommend her services!!
