Amazing Photographer!
Believe me, this is the photographer you want to use for your wedding! Melodye is fun, professional, and so easy to work with. She truly cares and takes time to get to know you. I would give her 10 stars if I could! -

Perfect choice!
If there were an option for 10 stars, that would be my choice. My husband and I live in Georgia and were not familiar with the area. Melodye went above and beyond with recommendations and helping with details while we were there. She truly tries to make the whole experience a memorable one. We asked for a mix of candid and posed shots in hopes of catching the emotions we felt as well. Melodye caught it all, the photos were exactly what we’d envisioned. I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Melodye Purdy.Purdy Art Company's reply:
Ashley, you both were so easy to photograph. I felt like we had met in another life. I’m so thankful and grateful to have been witness to this momentous occasion. Thank you for trusting me. -

10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!!!
Melodye is incredible. Having her capture our wedding day at Thorncrown was nothing short of amazing. She helped us plan out our day, picked me up for our first look and took us to 5-6 GORGEOUS spots around Eureka Springs. She makes you feel incredibly comfortable in front of the camera and makes walking around in a wedding dress in the middle of the road feel somehow normal.
So on a personal and knowledge level she is excellent. Now onto her work… SO SO SO EXCELLENT!!
She captured us. She captured our looks to each other, our grins and laughs. She doesn’t do a lot of posing and this translate to incredible, natural photos.
I cannot recommend her enough. Our photos are perfect and our day at perfect. I wouldn’t change a thing. If you’re traveling to Thorncrown and are not intimately familiar with the area, she is a no brainer. If you are familiar with the area but want a fire photographer, look no further.
She was incredibly communicative and a joy to work with. The turn around on our photos and video was quick as well.Purdy Art Company's reply:
Oh my goodness.....so incredibly kind of you. I truly enjoyed every moment along with you. My favorite time was just sitting in the chapel listening to the music before you exchanged vows. It was so peaceful to pause and take in the moment together with you.
You both are very loved. I could see it in your parents eyes. I feel very fortunate to have been witness to this moment. Thank you for the honor. I hope to see you again next year for your anniversary. God Bless you both. -

Melodye is a true professional and a true artist, all wrapped into one! She stepped in when we were in a pinch to find a photographer, and we couldn't be happier. She made us comfortable, laugh, and is full of great conversation and wisdom. Our vow renewal was a better photographic experience than our original wedding! -

Doris N. Sent on 05/08/2022More than photos - An extraordinary experience!
My husband and I recently had the pleasure of working with Melodye Purdy during our wedding ceremony. From the first contact to the last shot, Melodye was extremely professional and a delight to work with. A month before our wedding, she scheduled a video conference with us, just for the sake of knowing us and our story - this alone made a strong impression on both of us. We felt so blessed to have found her! She made our day even more fun and exquisite - her sense of humor, sensitivity, and talent were remarkable! She led us through key areas around Eureka Springs, and the pictures she took were breathtaking! I cannot recommend her enough. She is a gem, a one-of-a-kind photographer who combines professionalism, talent, with a generous, loving, and fun personality. Having her as our photographer was one of the best decisions we made, and made our experience even more memorable.Purdy Art Company's reply:
I feel so blessed to have met you two. I noted the day we met that I knew your story would touch me. Thank you for choosing me. I look forward to seeing you both again soon. -

Chris K. Sent on 04/25/2022Melodye Purdy is a true professional
Melodye Purdy and crew were everything you could ask for in a wedding photographer. We were planning our wedding from another state, and Melodye assisted in other areas such as suggestions for DJ, stylists and the like.
Melodye helped me figure out the order of events (who should be where, when!) She was professional, prompt and proved to be very personal, offering pearls of wisdom on marriage and family. We met several times by Zoom, and when we met in person, it was comfortable, as if we were old friends.
And then we saw the PHOTOS. Just breath taking. She captured every moment from buttoning the dress, to the sacred vows, to the shots at the reception! Her editing is just beautiful, soft and natural. We had a 4K video made to share, and it's a keepsake as well. Photos were available sooner than promised and she delivered far beyond our expectations.Purdy Art Company's reply:
What an honor to have been with you all on this day. I enjoyed every minute. Your daughter and new son-in-law were so much in love. How lucky are we all to have been witness to their nuptials. -

Melodye was recommended to us by Beaver Lake Cabins, little did we know the experience we were about to have with her. On top of amazing photos from our ceremony, she also toured us around Eureka Springs to take the rest of the photos with one of a kind back drops. She genuinely cares about each and every couple that she comes into contact with and its reflected in her photos. Couldn't recommend enough!!Purdy Art Company's reply:
We had a great time didn’t we?! It was so cool to be with you in this beautiful day. It was such an honor to be witness to your new beginning as husband and wife. 💜💜 -

M'leah W. Sent on 06/25/2021Easiest photographer to work with!
Ms. Purdy was so attentive and excited to be a part of our big day! She is personable, easy to talk and connect with, and her attention to detail is phenomenal. We weren't entirely sure what we wanted at first but she has such a warmth and genuine nature that interacting with her brought out the truest version of us as a couple. She made the experience effortless and easy for us. She understands that this is all about the connection that love brings and we can't imagine having done this with anyone else!Purdy Art Company's reply:
You guys were like rock stars!! Super fun day and sooooo beautiful.
Thank you so much for showing me what real love is all about. I expect a visit with you next time you are in Eureka!!!!! -

Great photographer! She gets to know her couples before the big day! The only regret I have is not having her stay for the remainder of the reception. -

Amazing photographer
Melodye and her assistant were so great to work with during our elopement in AR in August. They captured the most beautiful pictures and we even used them to live stream our wedding. She created a fb page for our wedding leading up to the event. I had no ride from the venue and since just the 2 of us she even swung by at the last minute and took me to the Thorncrown Chapel herself to keep our wishes of romantic first encounter at ceremony alive. She spent extra time getting just the right photos. We felt so at ease while taking the pictures they all came out so perfect that we love ALL of them! If you are looking for a photographer in the area, she is hands down the perfect one for your wedding!!Purdy Art Company's reply:
We had the best time with you both. I hope you will return again for your anniversaries! Thank you again for letting us be a part of this day. More importantly thank you for your service to others. -

Melodye is such an absolute joy to work with! She is just such a ball of energy while knowing how to keep the timeline going. She captured some of my most precious memories from our big day and I’ll never be able to thank her enough for them!Purdy Art Company's reply:
JoAnn, thank you! I enjoyed you and your entire family so very much. It brings me such joy, knowing that on this day you laughed, you cried, and you were surrounded by so much love. I look forward to seeing you again in the future for more memory making activities!! -

Meagan Sent on 01/30/2022Say YES to Purdy Art Company!
Trust her! Investing in Melodye was one of the best decisions that we made when planning our wedding. She did so much more than take photos. We are from out of state and she made many recommendations and gave advice that helped us plan our entire day. She is so kind and her energy was infectious even to our guests. There were times that she made it seem like she wasn’t even there so that we could just enjoy one another, while still being able to capture the moment for us in such a beautiful way. She also made everyone feel so comfortable in front of her lens. The Purdy Art Company experience is the one that you want for your wedding day. Not only is SHE exceptional, but we cannot sing enough praises about her work. Our images are absolutely incredible. Every photo seems so thoughtful and her attention to detail is evident. She turned our memories into works of ART that we can cherish for a lifetime.Purdy Art Company's reply:
Megan....you mad my day! How incredibly kind of you. I have always said my work is only a reflection of the people in front of me. You both were absolutely so wonderful to work with. It was so easy for me to watch you and capture your energy. Please know how much i appreciate you choosing me. Your love that you two share will help change the world. many blessings to all of you. -

A true pro....
Working with Melodye was delightful and professional. She was thoughtful about the whole portfolio to capture our Moroccan themed reception - from the early 'just us' photos to the little things unfolding during our event to the finished product. Her photos were expressive and fun...but mostly she listened to what I wanted and delivered. Thank you, Mel...you did a beautiful job documenting our a once-in-a-lifetime party!Purdy Art Company's reply:
Can you say “Epic”. That’s how I felt on your wedding day. The food, the venue, all the little extras. You throw a party like no other. But then again you and Kevin are two of the most unique and loving people I know. It was my honor and pleasure to be witness to this world class event. Thank you dear one. -
