    Absolutely amazing!

    Megan was absolutely amazing. My husband and I planned our wedding from Indiana and we were married in Gatlinburg, TN. Megan helped us tremendously and made us feel so comfortable. I was sold after our first conversation. I was not wrong with my gut feeling because once we met her and she took our wedding photos I knew they were going to be amazing. We received the photos and I could not have been happier. They were so amazing and she caught so many moments that I can look back and remember. We wanted someone to concentrate on candid photos and she did amazing at that. She also did amazing at the posed photos. I would recommend her to anyone!!!

    Wonderful wedding photographer!

    Megan was amazing to work with for our wedding! She was very easy to communicate with before the wedding and was even better the day of! I do not have a lot of experience with professional photographers, but she made me feel so at ease and beautiful! I have a large family and she was so organized when it came to getting all the formals done, but she was also very flexible when things changed. The guests said she was very accommodating of their picture requests. Also, she delivered way more pictures than I expected! I highly recommend Megan for your wedding, or any other important time in your life. I will definitely use her again if needed!

    Great ideas and so fun to work with!

    Megan was amazing! We spoke with her several times before our wedding day so we were all clear on expectations for our wedding photos. We planned our wedding from out of state and she was super helpful in helping us to understand the area better and had great ideas for photo op locations. She was flexible when our venue cancelled on us two weeks before our wedding because of COVID shut down. She recommended venue options and thankfully we were able to find a place. It turned out better than we could imagine and Megan had amazing ideas for our photos there. I love the candid shots she took the most because they really capture the emotions of our big day. We couldn't be happier with our photos and Megan was a joy to work with. All our friends and family said the same!

    Phenominal

    Megan did an AMAZING job with our wedding. It was raining most of the evening for our wedding so Megan was quick on her feet to have different variations of the pictures we wanted given the weather. While we haven't gotten our pictures back yet, she did show us a few on her camera after we took a few and they look so good! I can't wait to see the whole collection but am confident they will be amazing!

    Simply the BEST

    I just got married June 15th, 2019 down in Key West, so it wasn't too long ago that I was wedding planning and searching for my photographer. I remember reading reviews and talking to only a few people but Megan and I immediately clicked in our correspondence and I loved how easy and fun she made the whole process from start to finish. You can tell how much she loves her job and not only is she amazing at it, but it shows in her pictures and in her direction. I got more compliments on her work from our wedding than anything else. She captured exactly what we wanted and we are so glad we chose her. Our photos are so beautiful and really captured our weekend of love. She is worth every single penny. She became a friend to us and I wish we could do this all the time so we could work with her forever! - Meagan and Thomas

    Couldn't Have Picked a Better Photographer

    Megan is wonderful and I am so glad to have had her as our photographer. She is so pleasant to work with from day one, then on our wedding day she was just perfect. She got photos done quickly and efficiently so we could enjoy our day, was non-invasive to our guests and made photos a lot less awkward than I expected the process to be. Fast forward to when our photos came back (which was faster than anyone I have talked to so far who has gotten married)-- they were beyond amazing and exactly what I hoped for. If you are looking at this review-- honestly, look no further and contact Megan-- you won't regret it!

    Lisa and Jerry married 11-27-18

    We chose Megan based on the quality of her work that we saw on her website and we are so thrilled that she was our photographer!
    Megan made an online process very intimate through a “get to know you” questionnaire that included specific details about our wedding and any special requests we desired.
    It was such a pleasure to finally meet her! She is friendly, personable, fun, energetic, highly talented, efficient and incredibly professional. While very “present” with us she was also low key and incognito, letting us enjoy our time while artfully capturing incredible moments of our day! She was so attentive to everything we were doing and it was so heartwarming that she noticed we had some memorabilia belonging to my late parents that she incorporated into our pictures! She also remembered an “after the fact” request from my husband - a photo of the Fort Zachary sign - which we were so thrilled to see both in day and evening light when we received our photos!
    We could not be more pleased with our choice to have Megan photograph our wedding and we assure you that you will be too!

    Our wedding was October 14th, 2017. We were coming to Key West from the after math of the Hurricane. With worry that our wedding would be a disaster, we were so thankful for Megan and Melanie capturing our dream day. Melanie, Megan's assistant, photographed our big day. She captured every special moment of our day. I had just a handful of pictures that I wanted to be re-edited, and Megan did so without question and so quickly. She was able to explain why some pictures were the way they were but still fixed pictures I asked about. We are so blessed with such beautiful pictures from Megan and Melanie! Thank you SO much!

    We had our destination wedding at The Pier House in Key West. We pretty much went into it blind. Choosing our vendors I thought was going to be the hardest part. Megan was phenomenal. From her first email I was thrilled to have chosen her! Her thoughtful little gifts and attention to detail for her over and above anything we could have imagined. She made our day special and about us. We didn't have to leave for great amounts of time to take pictures, we barely knew she was there. Our pictures are gorgeous, she captured everything perfectly! Thank you Megan!

    I don't even know where to begin. Megan was awesome to work with from the beginning. Planning a destination wedding is challenging but Megan made it so easy. She was quick to respond and was there to answer any and every question that we had along the way. Unfortunately, we weren't able to meet Megan until the day of the wedding but it didn't feel that way because of how great Megan was throughout. Fast forward to the wedding weekend..we had a few last minute changes in details and Megan was responsive and super flexible about it (Thank you, Megan!). We also had a very large bridal party and she was patient with everyone and was open to the pictures that we wanted to take. We very much appreciated it! Megan stayed with us from the "getting ready" shots to when the reception ended, which I didn't expect her to do. We have received so many compliments from guests about how nice and hard working she was. The icing on the cake? We received the pictures quicker than we though we would and the pictures are more than we could have ever wished for. They are beautiful and personal and perfect. Thank you so much, Megan!

    Megan, I do not even know where to start with how wonderful and amazing she is. We currently live in Orlando, Florida and received the recommendation for Megan through a friend, as soon as I contacted her it was like we had been friends for years. She truly takes the time to get to know you and what you love as a couple. There is nothing she did not make easy, even living so many hours away from Key West, even allowing us to crash her family breakfast to drop off to her. We could not have asked for anything more. From the initial last minute engagement shoot to the final moments of our wedding she felt like she was family. Megan arrived bright and early wedding morning and stayed until moments before the end of the night to make sure she got every moment captured. Our pictures were ready quickly and are so beautiful. She captured every moment, looking at them made us relive such a special day in our lives. We would highly recommend her, and even would look into using her in the future as our lives together grow. Thank you Megan for being so wonderful.

    Megan is the best of the best! She takes the time to get to know you and what you are looking for way ahead of time and truly keeps your wishes in mind throughout the entire day. She made our photographs easy, fun, and personal. She is kind, professional, and so easy to work with. One of the big deciding factors, aside from her beautiful photos, was that she offered a package with unlimited hours. She was there from beginning to the very end of my day! That mattered a lot to me. Additionally, a beautiful 20 page photo book comes with the package.

    My pictures were finished quickly and they were absolutely stunning!! There were a couple pictures that I wanted adjusted, and she was so responsive and quick to make the changes. She captured so many emotional moments that I otherwise would have missed! I could not reccommend her enough!

    We recently got married at Ocean Key and we couldn't have been happier with Megan! She was so professional and lovely. She made us and our guest feel super comfortable. And most importantly, she captured the day perfectly! Our biggest problem at this point is choosing which pics to frame. :) We HIGHLY recommend Megan Ellis.

    Ok, this is going to be a long review because I have a lot of wonderful things to say about Megan! Not only is Megan a wonderful and creative photographer, but she is also caring, kind and fun. My husband and I currently live in Orlando and I grew up in Key West. I came across Megan's portfolio online and immediately feel in love with her work. The phone interview and emails made us feel at ease and in good hands as she really tried to get to know us as individuals and as a couple. We asked to provide mostly candid photos as we really wanted to relive the moment. I wanted to have fun and be in the moment and be able to reflect on those moments from an outside perspective. On our wedding day, Megan and her assistant were fun and delightful to work with. The site of our wedding was at a Yacht club in Key West, and one of the areas that Megan wanted to shoot was on a long dock that was located across the harbor. At first, we thought we could just walk around, it turned out to be blocked and would have to drive, so Megan drove us in her personal car so we could get photos that most people wouldn't have tried to do. There wasn't a time where I felt I wasn't in the moment, it just felt fun and that reflected in the photos that Megan captured.

    I am so glad we went with Megan Ellis. There are a lot of photographers in the Key West area but Megan, for me, is the best of the bunch. I am not someone who is usually photographed but Megan made my husband and I feel so comfortable. It was a very positive experience. She listened to what we wanted and was flexible when it rained during our cocktail hour, which meant we had to change our shooting schedule a little. She sent us our pictures quickly and they were beautiful. Really, you will not be disappointed if you choose Megan to photograph any event.

    As a future groom, I really didn't give much thought to wedding photos. I was your typical "yes, that's nice" decision-maker. But after seeing the quality of my wedding photos, I am so glad we chose Megan. We had sparklers at our wedding reception, and somehow she took a badass picture of some kids spelling our last name. She also managed to get all 200 of us in an epic group shot! She flew from Key West up to Asheville, NC, and charged us a better rate than we could find locally. She worked tirelessly, and her eye for the detail was top notch.

    I'm very happy we chose Megan as our photographer for our wedding! Megan was very flexible in rescheduling our engagement photo session when our original date was rained out. Megan was wonderful at really listening to what we were hoping for out of our photographs. Megan is very warm and very talented which made me feel very comfortable the day of the wedding. I highly recommend Megan as a wedding photographer. She did an amazing job and we are very happy with how our photos turned out!

    After my first conversation on the phone with Megan many months before my wedding, I knew right then that I had made the right choice selecting a photographer. Her level of professionalism, style, and thoroughness with her photography business is truly everything a bride would want for her wedding day. I had an idea of how I wanted the pictures all to go, but it was Megan who really brought everything together that day for us. From the getting ready pictures to our first look on the beach, and then when we needed some direction with where to go with our trolley for pictures around Key West, Megan was there with a plan for us. I actually have not seen our wedding pictures back just yet, but after our wonderful experience working with her I am so confident she captured everything beautifully about our day!!

    Unlike most brides, I didn't necessarily have every moment of my wedding planned out to a "t". I am still in awe with the beautiful imagery in photo and video that Megan Ellis and her assistant Ashley captured during our wedding on 2/26. Talk about professionals! They arrived early and that really put me at ease for the whole day. I preferred a more candid theme to our photos and they really delivered! Even without much direction from me or the groom, Megan and Ashley used their creative prowess and expertise and created fantastic scenes for the photos. She really made us feel comfortable in front of the camera under her direction. Megan even helped to fix my pesky veil after the ceremony! Where would I have been without her?! I want to extend a most sincere and heartfelt thank you to Megan and her assistant Ashley for their hard work and professionalism they demonstrated in documenting our wedding. I've already begun recommending them to any and all brides I meet! If you haven't been convinced already by other reviews, then please don't wait any longer to book Megan Ellis; it will be your best and most worthwhile purchase!

    A few days before our wedding, the weather forecast had predicted some light rain – which quickly turned into severe thunderstorms. The day of our wedding, Megan greeted me with “Everything will turn out just fine”, since all of our shots had been planned to take place outside. She was able to adapt and capture such beautiful pictures and moments throughout our wedding day. My husband and I are so truly grateful to have worked with Megan – as she was able to direct us and come up with another plan while making us feel like all was taken care of. We already knew that she created beautiful images, but to be thrown a curve ball and still deliver beautiful images beyond our expectation despite undesired weather weather says it all!

    Megan was very easy and wonderful to work with! My husband and I were lucky enough to have Megan take our engagement photos in West Palm Beach, FL and also have her for our big day in Cleveland, OH. Great communication throughout the whole process, she made great suggestions while taking our photos and was open to our ideas as well. Megan really did go above and beyond for us to provide a great service. It is easy to tell she takes a lot of pride in her work!

    Megan did a fantastic job photographing our wedding! She was great at communicating with me about her photography style and working with our budget. She gave us a questionnaire to fill out about us as a couple and bridal party, which was great because it felt more relaxed since she had gotten to know bit about us. Megan did a great job at making my very unphotogenic husband relax and she managed to get some fantastic shots of everyone.

    Megan was a dream to work with. She directed the shots that I really wanted to get, but I never felt like she was pushy. I could tell she just wanted to make me happy. She scoped out our location for first look photos and found the perfect spot (we were staying at the Marriott beachside where a lot of guests were staying and I was nervous about guests seeing me before the walk down the aisle.) I actually felt like she was one of my friends, just taking photos. I'm so excited to see the finished product and I'm sure that I will be happy with the results. Thank you Megan!!

    Going to Marathon, Florida for a destination wedding was a little nerve racking when it came to finding a photographer. I searched and searched for a photographer who had an artistic flare and who was reasonably priced. Megan Ellis was WONDERFUL to work with. She was prompt in answering emails, and we even talked twice on the phone about shots that i was interested in. She honestly listened when it came to our interests, and she found the best places to shoot some great shots! She even helped with other details because she knew the area so well.
    Not only did she photograph our sunset wedding, she met us another day in Key West to shoot some casual shots at some "hidden treasures" there. She edited and did a fantastic job with our photos, and she was fun to work with!
    Definitely hire Megan as your photographer...you won't be sorry!!!
