Personable photographer = amazing session
Miranda took our engagement photos in San Diego. I live in another state so she took the effort to scope out the location I was interested in, found several sites for our engagement photo shoot, and made key suggestions to make my surprise proposal a success! She takes beautiful, natural lifestyle/portrait photography and uses natural lighting very well. The best part was, she’s very personable and made us feel comfortable. It made the shoot fun and special!

TKP Photography - amazing photos & easy to work with!
Miranda was a joy to work with. She captured sweet moments that I didn't even notice until I saw the photos afterwards as well as more traditional family shots without making them feel too starched and posed. Miranda has a way of making you feel comfortable in your own skin - whether she's working with someone who is typically shy and doesn't like being in front of the camera or a little kid who is super cute but who can't sit still for one second. Working with Miranda to plan ahead of time was easy and she was very professional by telling us exactly what we could expect from her but also being willing to go with the flow to meet our needs and to come up with a spur of the moment shots to capture the mood. We were delighted with our experience with Miranda, as was everyone else who interacted with her. I highly recommend using her for your engagement, wedding, or anything in-between!

Top notch photographer and person
Miranda is ridiculously easy to work with. My husband and I are those people who don't actually like taking pics but we love having them. Miranda puts even camera shy people like us at ease. She is friendly, easy to communicate with, professional, creative, and above all, very talented. Our photoshoots with her (we've done 2) have given us memories we will always treasure.
