Hippie Girl Photography☮

s great and worked with wedding coordinator nicely and the timeline! Definitely recommend for sure.

hotographer there after we did the formal photos. The rest of the night was just me celebrating with my people. She captured everyone so candidly and respectfully and I didn’t hear a single bad thing about her from anyone. I would recommend to anyone and re-book in a heartbeat.

during all of our sessions. UPDATE - I wanted to provide an update to my original review, in hopes that the feedback is helpful to Melissa, and to others looking to hire her for services. We had a handful of photos that we really liked, but these photos had some really bad effects going on in them – extremely tilted frames, obvious shadows, bad lighting, glares in the background. We reached out to Melissa about 5 weeks after she delivered our portfolio asking for her to edit these photos. After months of going back and forth with her on this, she wasn’t able to make the edits we were looking for. As it turns out, we learned that she is unable to make the edits because she deleted the raw files from our wedding 30 days after she delivered our final portfolio. I understand the need for this, but some sort of heads up or letting us know about this would’ve been nice. I was really frustrated to learn about this after the fact, and without ever being told that this was her policy. It was also not mentioned anywhere in our contract that we had 30 days to request edits before the raw files are gone. I feel like a more reasonable approach would be to tell customers upfront what your policy is on retaining raw files (specifically, when you usually expect to delete raw files), so that they are able to request edits before the raw files are destroyed. Had I known that the raw files would not be available only 30 days after we got our wedding photos, I would have reached out sooner than I did…But I also reached out about 5 weeks after she gave us our photos, which I feel like is pretty quick. So now, we have to hire someone else to edit the photos, and just hope that they can work with the “high res” photos we got in our portfolio. So if you hire Melissa – It would be smart to make sure you like your wedding photos pretty quickly after she sends you your portfolio, because you won’t have the option to go back and make edits to them after that 30 days is up.

s after the wedding! Thank you Melissa for being amazing! Looking forward to our next project!

she made the process very seamless from contract to delivery of the photo gallery. Melissa was also very responsive whenever I would email her thoughts or ideas, which I very much appreciated. My husband is not particularly fond of having his picture taken, but Melissa made it fun and he actually didn't mind. He really loved the "hip bump" idea and it helped capture our authentic reactions ;) The package that we went with included the engagement session, which I think makes complete sense so you can meet before the big day and get to know each other and be comfortable. Melissa was amazing to work with and embraced our uniqueness. For example, I wanted a few pictures with my Jeep on the beach for engagement pictures and then we wanted to have pictures with our dog around a lake before the wedding. She was completely on board and listened to our wants and made it happen with a smile. We realized during before ceremony pictures that we didn't have a ride to our own wedding so Melissa graciously drove us! Thank you once again! Not only was Melissa great to work with but the pictures were delivered timely and the quality was great. So. Many. Great. Ones. We will cherish these pictures for years to come and will look back at our special day with nothing but amazing memories. Thank you for capturing our wedding Melissa! <3

chedules but not Melissa. She was laid back and went with how the day went and got all the pictures with adding zero stress to us, which helped us enjoy our day even more. She took SOOOO many pictures and got them back to us pretty quick. They are so beautiful our house is now covered in them. Highly recommend!

her and can’t wait to hire her again for another life event. I will cherish our pictures forever and our experience with such an amazing person!

her pictures when they came in!!

es that are beyond happy with. We are looking forward to using her in the future!

life! I personally wanted “light and airy” photos and she delivered exactly that. She is extremely professional and worked so well with our other vendors. She is effective when it comes to time management and made sure that we got every shot that we could possibly want while keeping us on a timeline without feeling rushed at all. Anything we asked was met with a “Ofcourse we can do that” and a smile! She just overall has great energy and helps your day run smooth with her professionalism. If we could review her a million times and give her a million star review we would, book her now!!!

ceived my pictures yesterday and let me tell you what they are the most beautiful breathtaking pictures I've ever seen! She captured all the love for sure! I highly recommend Hippie Girl Photography, she is a must!!

eautiful and being able to look back on these for years to come is amazing. She has a real gift. She is very great at communicating any concerns you have and is always up for trying something new, which we loved. She even captured great photos of our dogs (we had them in our wedding) who are not photogenic at all lol. All of the photos came back in the timeframe she provided us and were WELL worth the wait. Book with her for your wedding, you will NOT be disappointed!! 🤍

ss with my husband. She went above and beyond to make sure that every single moment was captured. She captured moments that I had no idea were happening at the time. She was even on the dance floor the entire time making sure she caught all the candid moments. I don’t think she sat down once! I will forever be thankful for the amazing memories I have to look back on. Melissa is the sweetest person with the sweetest soul. Her talent truly amazes me. She takes pride in her work and it absolutely shows.

get all of the MUST HAVE day of shots while also capturing the precious sentiments of the day. I first selected her because I loved her editing... little did I know her talents far exceeded that! She was patient and empathetic throughout the entire experience. I’m so grateful I used her because I now have the most beautiful captured memories that we can look back on and share for the rest of our life. I know choosing a day of photographer is a HUGE decision but I promise Hippie Girl will not let you down! 💗💗💗

clients. 10/10 recommend her for your wedding.

nd having her at our wedding was such a relief knowing that entire day would be forever at our fingertips with the photos. Nothing felt forced, she caught every moment without making us lose. Very affordable wedding + engagement packages. She’s now our photographer for all of our life events!

’s 1st birthday pictures! She is so sweet and we love her!!

e looking in the Houston area!
