Book her for all of your photo needs!!!

Ever since I saw Melissa’s photos and edits on WeddingWire I immediately wanted to book her. I love her moody fall-like edits so much! Melissa was actually the first vendor I booked because I was so excited! She is amazing to work with. Very chill, fun and flexible. We were able to work out a payment plan up until the wedding which worked perfect for us. We were nervous for our engagement shoot because we never took photos before and she knew exactly what to do and how to pose us. Then when the wedding came, we were already comfortable with her, she had my list of shots I wanted on her phone and family photos went extra smooth and fast we had time for cocktail hour. We will be using Melissa for everything photography in the future. She’s just awesome!!

Love love love

Loved loved loved hiring Melissa as our photographer for our wedding. Her and her assistant were punctual, professional, and an absolute pleasure to have. Plus they were flexible with a pandemic Wedding! They were able to capture multiple angles at a time catching both myself and my husband. It saved time with the formal photo graphs and allowed 2 angles for all candids during the event. Brilliant! The photos look amazing, and we recieved the weblink so I can print as many as I want. An amazing experience overall. Thank you so much!
