Perfection

Sarah and Mel were hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. From the very first moment of our cross-country phone call, they made us comfortable, confident, and even more hyped for our wedding. They had excellent communication throughout the entire process and are unbelievably talented, friendly, and kind people.

We love the way they incorporate nature and natural light into their work and their classic, timeless style. Their thoughtful choices and great eye for detail translated into incredible engagement and wedding pictures. They helped us choose a beautiful place for our engagement pictures that showcased our interests and personalities.

During the wedding, they got some amazing candids as well as stunning formal (but not fussy) traditional portraits. They give great posing advice and all our photos felt natural and beautiful. They were also willing to go the extra mile to make sure they got the attention of our stubborn ring bearer (our dog 😂). They are fantastic with kids, dogs, and adults and were a joy to work with from start to finish. We will definitely look forward to future family portraits with them!

10/10 Amazing Photography

Simplicity Photography is the best photography service you can book in the 518 for a wedding. Their knowledge and creativity truly shine through and make the day even more special. We had an outdoor wedding, and the lighting and backdrops they chose on the property were breathtaking. My husband and I can’t thank them enough for their incredible work and for how beautiful the photos turned out. It’s truly a day we will never forget. We highly recommend Simplicity Photography for your wedding day!

Melanie and Sarah of Simplicity Photography were absolutely phenomenal!

From the moment we had a phone consultation to the time they gave us our final product, Melanie and Sarah were kind and professional. They were discreet during the wedding ceremony and managed to take amazingly beautiful photos at the church as well as at the reception. The venue for the reception was a little on the dark side, which I was concerned about. But the pictures were breathtaking--you wouldn't even know that the reception hall had very low lighting because the pictures were all clear and frankly stunning.
Melanie and Sarah were great with giving direction during portraits with our families, as well as just the shots of me and my husband. They are very reasonably priced and offer numerous packing options. The turn around time to getting our editing photos was quicker than we expected as well. Overall, I would absolutely recommend them and plan to use them again if/when I have other occasions to need professional photographers.

High Quality Photos with a Kind Team

Melanie and Sarah are talented photographers and kind people. We were faced with some unexpected rainy weather for our engagement photos and they literally stuck with us through the storm and captured beautiful photos! They are great at photographing outdoor settings and natural light. My fiancé and I are a camera shy couple and they made us feel very comfortable and captured natural and special moments. Highly recommend!

Mark and Rosa Wedding

Melanie and Sarah were fantastic to work with. They both were very professional and thoughtful. When it came time to capture special photos, they helped with us ideas for those once in a lifetime moments we wanted to capture. They both were able to pose us where we needed to be and capture multiple different angles so we would have unforgettable memories. Having both Melanie and Sarah, they were able to get bride getting ready photos and groom getting ready photos at the same time. For our wedding day we couldn't have asked for anyone better to help complete our wedding day

Best service with the best girls!

Melanie and Sarah were great throughout the entire process of our wedding. We are so happy we picked this duo to capture our magical day. Even though it rained, they knew I really wanted some outdoor photos and made a point to get us outside during a break in the rain. The photos came out fantastic and they are the sweetest people to work with.

Small Country Wedding

We had a small wedding with only 20 people. Sarah took not only beautiful photos of us as the couple, our rings, bouquet, and food smorgasbord, but was very patient taking individual family photos for us. We cherish our family and have three elderly parents that we are happy to have on this planet each and everyday. I am grateful to have captured these images to keep forever. I am going to frame these and give them as Christmas gifts.
The quality of the images are perfect and I didn't realize they would come out so beautiful. I am very happy with Simplicity Photography and would use them again! Thank you.

Amazing work!

Melanie and Sarah are an incredible duo and worth consideration if you are in need of photography. They did a flawless job capturing our engagement photos, wedding ceremony photos, and recession. Personally I think having two photographers is incredible, they feed ideas off of each other, you get multiple angles, I mean they can literally be in two places at once! Couldn't have asked for a better option and would absolutely recommend 11/10!
