Why choose my wedding photography services
Melissa is the real deal, the whole package! We hired her as a photographer for our small at-home wedding. She is very professional and organized and even helped me with my ceremony timeline to make sure we were able to get all the shots we wanted for our special day. Her communication was efficent and transparent, we really felt like we could count on her during the whole process.
The day of, she was so friendly and was able to put us at ease immediately and it really shines through in her photos. When we got our photos back, we were blown away. Not only are the photos at face value absolutely beautiful, but she managed to capture all the love and joy of the day in photo form. Certain moments and details of the day that seem like a blur post-wedding craziness has been preserved through her photos so we are very grateful for her artistry! We cannot stop looking at her beautiful work.
