    Mel and her assistant, Frank, were such a joy to have on our big day. Beyond being excellent and very professional photographers, they were completely involved in our celebration. Their energy was fun and contagious. Our guests loved interacting with them, and so did we! They helped us feel so comfortable throughout our big day.

    I can not even- with this girl. She is SO talented. We are all just lucky she is out there doing this. Beyond thrilled with how my pics came out. Also- she didnt have a second shooter- it was just her and she killed it. she was like a ninja just getting everything.

    I’ve had the opportunity to see lots of Melissa’s photo projects and what I have always thought is this: she either only shoots really, really attractive people, or she just makes everyone look good (I know it’s the latter). She has a natural ability to capture people being completely themselves and does it with the best light, the best angle, the best framing—she just takes really amazing pictures. I wholeheartedly recommend, and do on a regular basis, Melissa for anything special you want to document.

    Melissa is incredible to work with and took the most amazing photos!!!! She's so easy to be around and gets everyone to relax and when the do... you get magic photos. Honestly we couldn't have been happier. We were so lucky to have her be a part of our day. We couldn't have asked for more gorgeous photos!

    I found Melissa from a coupon on a website for a discounted engagement session. I reviewed her work on her website and instantly fell in love with her artistic photos. My husband and I met with her and this just reaffirmed our decision to work with her.

    She did an awesome job at our engagement session. Our photos were artistic and, as my husband says, made us look damn good :-p. She created a Pinterest board which we could both pin inspirational photos for the shoot. I completely forgot about what I pinned but she was great at remembering them and made sure we took those photos.

    She has such a warm, friendly and bubbly personality. I instantly felt comfortable working with her since I felt awkward getting my picture taken :-p...and I felt like she was someone I knew for years. On our wedding day she even brought her iPad to review pictures I had posted on Pinterest of different wedding photos I liked. Again she continued to amaze me with her professionalism and work ethic.

    I haven't see our final wedding photos but I know I will be amazed and love them from the ones she's showed us. I definitely recommend working with Melissa. I know I'll use her again :).

    I randomly purchased a wedding channel deal for an engagement photo session with Melissa (without checking reviews, always risky) and I could not be happier with my decision! As my fiance and I have lived in the San Francisco area for a year and are originally from the East Coast, we really wanted to have some fun pictures that showcased our new city (Golden Gate Bridge, Crissy Field and Palace of FIne Arts) without being too tourist-y. Planning our shoot (time, location, etc) was a breeze. Melissa was available via email and phone and was quick to respond and very flexible. She gave me some ideas of props to bring if I was interested and as I think it is a bigger West Coast thing to do the prop photos as none of my friends have done it, I decided it was a good idea to fill the 2 hour time slot and I am so happy she encouraged it! We brought a sushi and wine picnic, a football and our favorite team jerseys, and a gold empty frame and were able to utilize all of our props for some really unique photos that captured our true personalities in the moment. She also took amazing classic and creative photos I would never think of and really knew how to position and instruct us for the best shots with the perfect backgrounds. That is key to me as I am very particular about having the right amount of background to a photo and it being positioned correctly and I have absolutely no complaints. She took a lot of photos and promised a cd of images within 3 weeks. To my surprise, I received an email with a slideshow of images within 2 days with the a sneak peak of images and a perfectly paired song. She added effects (black and white, vintage look) to a few photos which I love but otherwise kept it classic because the pictures didn't need anything since she did it right the first time! I would easily pay full price for her services (which seem very reasonably priced as well) and have her as my wedding photographer if my wedding wasn't on the East Coast and I hadn't already booked a photographer! I will definitely be referring anyone in SF I know to her as she made the process fun and the pictures were amazing. As my friend said "best engagement photos I have ever seen" which is a huge compliment as I am in the age group that everyone I know is getting married and getting engagement pictures. Thanks Melissa!

    Melissa has a wondreful eye and captured so many details I didn't even know about until I saw the photographs. She went above and beyond and truly made our day memorable. We have so many "special moments" images to chose from that we are more than pleased with the results, quality and service. All were 5-star!

    Melissa Fuller is hands down the best photographer!! She is warm, engaging, proactive and professional. The images she captured of my family will be treasured for generations. She is a true artist but at the same time she is so down to earth!!!
