Melanie is an excellent photographer. She was thoughtful, kind, and easy to work with. She was responsive and got to know us and what we wanted from our wedding. Melanie made sure to give us just enough direction to capture the best shots, while allowing us to spend time with our guests and enjoy the day.
Our photos turned out absolutely beautiful - they are bright and joyful, just like our wedding.
— Katie & Geoff
Our photos were stunning and better than we had dreamed. My maid of honor sent me one picture in particular and commented that she didn't know a picture could so perfectly capture our love for one another. We could not have asked for a better experience or photographer to capture our day. If you're considering Melanie, do yourself a favor and book her!
Melanie has an incredible ability to make us feel at ease and comfortable.
— Helen & Joseph
I love Melanie! I would recommend her to any other bride in a heartbeat, and if I had to do it all over, I would choose her again. She walked with me through the whole process and made me feel comfortable trusting her with my photos. And of course, LOVE THE FINAL PRODUCT. Melanie not only captured how we looked on the day of the wedding but also the emotions, love, and laughter.
