“Melissa was an absolute pleasure to work with for photographing my surprise proposal. Melissa provided suggestions of local spots and worked with me the day before when we were concerned about a rainy day during the time I had planned to propose. The day of, Melissa showed up an hour early to ensure that she would not miss the event. During the proposal and after, Melissa was very well prepared and was able to capture every emotion of my now fiancee during the proposal. I cannot recommend Melissa more highly. She is professional, very easy to deal with and also turned around our photos extremely quickly. Thank you so much for making our day so special!.”

“Melissa was just absolutely wonderful! We first met her for an engagement shoot and it was like meeting an old friend. We were comfortable with her immediately. She did an engagement session for us and did our wedding photos and we couldn’t have been happier with all of them. Melissa is not only an amazing photographer and artist but she is a great person as well and incredibly easy to work with.”
