Megan Braemore Photography

able, and there is an ease in working with her that is indescribable. She makes everyone feel comfortable and able to be themselves while working with her. I remember on the day of our wedding she ensured we had every photo that we wanted captured plus so many more, she was calm and even gave us gentle time reminders to keep us on schedule. The photos of that day are displayed around our house and are some of the most valued things I own! When it came time to photograph my family, Megan made sure to get to know our girls before she ever met them. She took the time to find out what would make them feel most comfortable in front of the camera. During our session, she was patient, friendly, and even let the girls get in on the picture taking action. This made my girls really warm up to her and open up when it was their turn to be photographed. We never once felt rushed! Megan again made sure to capture all the combinations of our family. The final images that we received were absolutely breathtaking and I know they will be memories that we cherish for generations to come! I cannot wait to display them in our home! I would recommend Megan with my whole heart!

f just a regular photographer, I found myself a friend that actually wants the best for you & your special day. She made the whole photo session so effortless & fun and she makes you feel so comfortable. Btw if you’re camera shy, you won’t be if Megan is taking your pictures! Book her for all of your events, you will NOT regret it💕

ible, her pictures flawless. However, that only skims the surface of what Megan did for me on my wedding day. Megan planned my wedding schedule down to the minute (in a completely unintrusive way). I followed the schedule along with my entire family. She made it so every person in my wedding party knew exactly where to be and when. She kept all of the guessing out of the day. She was extremely professional but has an incredible presence, we all felt as though she was part of the family and we had known her forever. Megan captured the most incredible moments of our wedding, while never really seeming to be a photographer at all. It was like one of my best friends just happened to be there capturing my big day. I am an overly anxious person. I was very nervous for the big day and having been in many weddings before, I was told "it will not go smoothly". Well, it did. And I can honestly say that I owe that entirely to Megan Braemore. Megan single handedly made my wedding what it was. Flawless. At one point, after pictures were taken, Megan told us, it was time for us to relax with a glass of wine for 30 minutes prior the ceremony began. My mother said "I didn't know that you could relax on your wedding day". Relax we did. Megan planned the whole day out like an incredible professional. She treated my family as her own, was incredibly flexible but also structured. After receiving my pictures a few months later I was floored. The lighting, the candids, the poses, they were all perfect and just what I had been looking for. I guarantee if you hire Megan as your photographer you will not be disappointed. You will end your event with outstanding photographs, peace of mind, and a good friend. We are lucky to have had Megan as our photographer. I could not recommend anyone more as not only a photographer but as a person.

capture our day beautiful without making the task feel awkward. Megan was the first of many calls I had scheduled to “meet” photographer for our wedding. Immediately, I knew we needed to work with Megan, and canceled all other scheduled phone calls. She is so joyful, friendly, kind, and passionate about her art, we felt as if we had known her for years. She immediately put us at ease and made us excited (for the first one) to start having our photos taken. Megan does so much more than photograph your wedding day. From the day we booked with Megan, she was always (happily) available to chat planning, tips for making the most out of the day, and advice for making our wedding and our photos exactly what we envisioned. She established a day of schedule, that incorporated every photo request we had, and made the entire day feel relaxed. The entire day was perfectly scheduled and stress free, all that’s to her hard work leading up to the wedding. She truly goes above and beyond to ensure that you have the wedding day of your dreams. On top of her expert help with planning and details, Megan takes the most incredibly beautiful photographs. We were truly blow away by her ability to make every photo looked like a work of art. I can not tell you how many people have told us that they have never seen such gorgeous wedding photos, or how impressive it is she was able to capture every detail without being noticed. Every single photo is perfect! It is impossible to choose which photos to print! Megan is a genuine, kind person and an amazing artist. We can not express how grateful we are to have had her capture our day!

s a top notch, memorable, 5 star experience. Her photography skills and passion for what she captures is truly and art and we both highly recommend her for a number of reasons. She sees your vision and makes every effort to make it come to life. Megan made helpful suggestions for our engagement shoot based on what she gathered from our love story. She listened and captured what was sonimportant to us as a couple making it all about US and not about what she wanted to shoot. This is how she differs from so many photographers out there, she sees the big picture, strives to make the couple beyond happy. We are still filled with emotions from what she captured from our engagement shoot. To sum it up best, she captured "US" and what Michelino and I are all about. She's a gem. Working with Megan was nothing short of a memorable and special experience, from her calmness and sense of peace to her positive spirit filed with joy, we loved each moment of the experience. We now have photographs that capture the essence of our love story, and had such a fun time during the shoot. She makes it all about you as the couple. Megan's eagerness to learn about our Love Story made us feel soooo special and as if we were her #1 priority even during a destination engagement shoot. Megan's ability to catch each and every romantic and charming detail along our shoot represented the detail in who Michelino and are as a couple. She made everything seem so easy and seamless and she didn't miss a beat! She has the ability to make her clients feel so important. Her epic photography skills and ability to capture natural light on the Brooklyn Bridge couldn't have been more perfect as she timed it perfectly for a vibrant, piercing red orange sunset reflecting off the skyline of NYC in the backdrop of our photos. This was inspiration Megan had discussed previously with us (a sunset on the Brooklyn Bridge in the background) but it was more than Michelino and I ever imagined as the photos made it all come to life. She makes you feel like gold. She also allowed us to be ourselves, which was so important to us and it made the photos as "real" as possible. As a newly engaged couple, she made us feel at our center, our "happy," "our peaceful zen" in NYC with over 8.4 million people, we felt on cloud 9 and in our own bubble the entire time. To us this was beyond special and it created such a memory for us. We went through the photos just this week and relived each one - isn't that what photos are supposed to make us do? She'll get it right. If you're looking for an experience of a lifetime and looking to not only get some of the best photos of your life by also meet a photographer who will listen and work together with you and your vision, Megan is your gal!

yle is classic, pure, and organic. She shoots with natural light and captures candid, stunning images that make you fall in love all over again. Her work speaks for itself. Megan shot not only our wedding photos, but our engagement session as well. After meeting with her for the first time, it was clear to us that her personality is just as beautiful as her photography. Throughout the planning process up until the day of our wedding, she was always one step ahead and made everything easy. She offered her expertise and was there for us the entire time – both as a photographer and friend. You see, Megan captures special moments, not photos – and she does so brilliantly. She is incredibly talented, creative, and personally one of the sweetest souls we have ever met. Megan is truly an artist. Words cannot express how thankful we are at the end result. As I told her at our wedding, “You’re my forever photographer." She captured memories that we will cherish a lifetime.

ture the essence of our relationship and love in all of her pictures. Looking at them afterwards made me cry because I knew I was looking at our unique love and spirit, not uncomfortable or generic shots. She is a true artist and her eye for this work is impeccable. Thank you so much, Megan! I cannot wait to share these beautiful moments with friends and family for many years to come.

eception, Megan was my confidant, my guide, and my friend through every moment. As someone who is much more comfortable behind the camera than in front of it, Megan made me feel beautiful and photogenic. When the photos came to us, my mom and I sat there in awe. I spread them out to the wedding party and immediately got floods of texts of how they were so fantastic they all cried. Every moment was captured, every emotion felt was portrayed. I would have my wedding another three times to go through the experience with Megan again.

ion was seamless. Our wedding day was perfect. No stress, first looks were absolutely gorgeous. She has an eye for perfection, and it shows in her work. I have not one single complaint. The absolute best photographer you can ask for. I will and would recommend her to anyone! (Her assistant on our wedding day was very helpful as well!)

ement and a reception at home. We found Megan to be: professional and punctual; flawless in developing and managing a schedule of photos, while also capturing the unplanned moments; organized with an artistic eye, and thoughtfully artful; respectful of our vision while presenting all the options; a delightful person with a winning smile; and last but not least, an all round amazing person. If this sounds a bit over the top, I do not apologize. Finding such a professional as Megan allowed me to relax in the knowledge that our special days would be appropriately documented - with the essence of the moment, and the magic of the day. I did not rate 'Value' with stars. I have no comparison for cost, but if value is defined by 'the days' experience' and the finished product, then my rating is five stars. Megan's personality and professionalism were mentioned often by our guests and wedding facilitators (venue, caterers, etc.).

the details about the wedding day that I had not really focused on. She was also a lot of fun and a joy to be around!

your old friends and she knows how you will feel most comfortable on your wedding day. During our engagement photos she came over early to help us pick out outfits that would work best for the photos. VERY helpful! For the day of she learned the schedule of the activities planned and kept everything on time and perfect. Even my limo driver the day of told me how great she was! The thing that really separates her from any of the other photographers in weddings I have been in is that she lets your day happen organically. All the great "candid" shots you have to usually stop and pose for pre wedding she just has an eye for detail and catches them naturally. Her eye for detail is really incredible and shows throughout the amazing wedding book she puts together for you. The quality of the book is beautiful and it is also great that you get all of your negatives. Megan goes above and beyond any expectations you could possibly have for your wedding day. I would highly recommend her to anyone that wants great wedding pictures and a smooth day she is simply the best.

laughing, and sharing recipes. This speaks volumes to the kind of person Megan is. She truly cares about each of her clients and is devoted from beginning to end. Our package included an engagement session and I wanted photos taken during peak foliage. Megan researched the best dates to make this happen (she goes above & beyond at all times) and sent helpful tips & a questionnaire ahead of time to get to know us better, which was really great. Despite the fact that we had to reschedule a few times due to inclement weather, Megan was calm, reassuring, & always accommodating. We went to a state park close to our home and that was when I got to see her work her magic. She has serious vision and although we were nervous (my now husband is extremely shy & does not like his photo taken) we trusted her and she did not disappoint. We were in the most unlikely place (right next to a parking lot) but you would never be able to tell from the finished photos. Megan finds the right spot, makes it work, and you forget everything else going on around you. She was really helpful in guiding us to pose/connect with one another and it definitely comes across in the images. We look like our true selves; so happy and in love – you’d never tell my husband is shy! By the end he had opened up & was having a great time. That in itself is a huge accomplishment! I still look through the photos and can’t help but smile at the good times & laughs the 3 of us shared. Megan & I stayed in touch; she was always there to answer a Q, provide insight, or put my mind at ease. As the big day approached she had me fill out another detailed questionnaire, provided more tips (she thinks of absolutely everything), and developed a wedding day timeline. This was invaluable! Her timeline served as the guide for everything else that day and it all went without a hitch. The day of our wedding, Megan & her 2nd shooter (Tara – also super sweet & awesome) seemed to be everywhere at once – not one angle was uncaptured and I was able to relive so many special moments that I missed in the hustle and bustle. She took control when necessary, ensured everything ran smoothly & on time, and coordinated with my other vendors to make sure everyone was on the same page/schedule. We were in such good hands! She stole us out of the reception at sunset to capture some romantic shots and everyone is dazzled when they see them. Our venue’s wedding coordinator can’t wait to see them and has already asked if she can have some for their website! One of the most special moments we shared was when Megan first arrived at my hotel room to start shooting me getting ready. She walked in the door, gave me a big hug, and we both choked up. She had just photographed my husband and his father getting ready together and was so moved by the occasion she had tears in her eyes. She told me how beautiful everything was and how happy she was to share it with us. This really struck me. How many people do you witness get that invested in their work? Megan is an absolute gem, and one of the most passionate and talented people I have ever met. I am honored that I had the opportunity to work with her and would recommend her in a heartbeat. Thank you Megan, from the bottom of my heart.

lue murder until Megan took me by the shoulders, looked me in the eye, and talked me down. For the rest of the day, whenever anything went wrong, I knew that Megan had my back and I could relax. And aside from being a wonderful person, she is an exceptional photographer. I have never been a person who takes "nice" photos. I take silly photos so I can hide my insecurities. But Megan made me feel beautiful on my wedding day, and look beautiful in the pictures she took. I will always be grateful for her.

ctures that took our breath away!! Megan's beautiful imagery made our home look like our ceremony was held in an actual venue not our living room (rain forced us inside and we had to plan b) she was soo flexible and great to plan with. Megan had great ideas we never thought of for helping our day ease along the way a big wedding would do naturally. Megan sees beauty behind her lens and it shows in every picture, she was perfectly priced and very professional, I (and my husband) would recommend Megan to anyone and everyone looking for a photographer!!

director during the big day made her indispensable. Not only does Megan capture breathtaking and natural photos, but she also keeps your planning process and wedding day on track, organized, and stress free, without you even realizing it! I am happy to call Megan not only our favorite and most trusted vendor, but also, a new friend. I would highly recommend Megan and her team to any couple wishing to work with a true artistic professional. Thank you Megan! ~ Ali & Eric

hat I attended a few years prior that she had taken. I was blown away by the images she produced and knew that I needed to learn more. Megan and I eventually connected for our first phone conversation- our slated time was supposed to be about an hour. However, we ended up spending close to two hours talking about what type of photographer she was and the sort of approach she has to her work and to her clients and how she handles each and every one of her couples differently. More than that, our conversation developed into a deeper discussion about life and what we are passionate about and the people and things we cherish most. I quickly realized almost two hours later when we were getting off the phone that it felt like the whole time, I had known this person for many years and that although I had not, I knew we would be friends, dear friends for many more. I also knew that I had just found my photographer and I had to do whatever it took to to make sure she was part of our experience. She played such an integral part of our wedding journey. From our bi-monthly meet ups for cocktails and conversation to bringing us to the most beautiful and romantic setting to shoot our engagement photos. There, she made us feel so comfortable and at ease it was like our own private celebration where the world had stopped just for those few hours and it was only me and my husband. I cherish her ability to do this, make the most simplest moments seem so big. Megan was also a very strong voice of reason for me at many points and I always felt like we had the rapport where I could call her for anything. Something as small as deciding on certain little details or even right down to the wire on the day of our wedding when we had to make a call on the weather. She always comes from a genuine and thoughtful place and is not afraid to tell you her honest opinion, which I very much respect and honor. And her photographs and art work, where do I even start? I am an avid art collector and have always had an affinity for contemporary art and photography. Megan's photographs are hands down some of the most beautiful work I have honestly ever seen. Her goal with her clients is to truly capture the moment and the essence of ones relationship and what love really means. It has still taken me time, weeks later to digest how stunning our wedding photos came out. Megan did the most amazing job capturing my husband and I's relationship and our wedding celebration through here imagery. She was able to encompass our entire day through her thorough attention to detail and convey that to us through her pictures. I am happy to say that because of Megan and the passion she puts in to her work always, my husband and I will be able to relive that momentous day and those once in a life time feelings through our photographs and wedding album. We owe a lot to her, not just for over delivering in the picture department but mostly for investing so much of herself into us, our experience and making sure she did everything she could to make the journey so special. We love Megan, and envy those future clients who get to live this once in a lifetime adventure with her.

d it shows in the care and detail she puts into her photos. She is an absolute delight to work with and made us instantly comfortable – impressive considering neither of us particularly enjoys having our photo taken. In addition to nurturing and capturing exceptional photos, Megan was an incredible resource to us in planning our wedding. She was always available via email to answer any questions that arose and was instrumental in helping us structure our day-of schedule. On the very rainy day of our wedding, which was intended to be outside, Megan put us completely at ease and coordinated a wonderful weather plan. Our rainy day photos turned out as stunning, unique pieces of art and I know we will cherish them always. I am so grateful for Megan’s incredible ability to create art out of what some might have considered a weather disaster. Megan is truly a joy to work with and she is unquestionably an extraordinary artist and professional.

and in turn, look relaxed as she took pictures on what is for many a high stress day. Once I saw how amazing the photos from the wedding came out, I knew I had to book a personal family session with her. My family session was more than amazing, as Megan helped pick out outfits, shooting locations, and set a mood which produced work I still consider to be among my most prized possessions. Since the original family session, I've booked Megan twice more personally for family & newborn shots. Others around me also fall in love with her work, and in October my sister-in-law had Megan Braemore Photography capture her wedding day. Also a bridesmaid in this wedding, I was so happy to see that in the years since our original meeting she has the same loving soft touch, and an even more impressive arsenal of tips and techniques to make the day feel both special and relaxed. Megan is the only photographer I want to work with for the rest of my life. I'm already hoping to book with her again in the coming year, and feel blessed to have had her document my family throughout the years. If you have the opportunity to book Megan Braemore Photography, know that in addition to Pinterest worthy photos which induce goose bumps, you’ll also come away with a new friend who truly cares. I highly recommend Megan Braemore Photography for your wedding, and any other life event you are looking to document. – Alexis Forest

somehow manages to tell the story or your love in the most aesthetically pleasing way -- capturing all of the elements of the day in a candid fashion. As a bride who did most of the decorating for our farm wedding myself, I really appreciate that Megan paid as much attention to all the little details as I did. From the beautiful scenery of the venue, to the emotion and humor of the ceremony, to the unplanned moments that happened throughout the day. Not being huge fans of the typical "posed" wedding pictures, my husband and I are thrilled with the images Megan captured with her creative eye. And while the day was a whirlwind of activity, she was extremely organized and efficient, paying close attention to the fact that we wanted to maximize our time enjoying the day rather than posing for pictures. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Just look at her photos...they speak for themselves!

es, but instead capture the candid moments of our special day. Megan's pictures are beautiful, effortless, and were exactly what we were looking for. What's more, Megan is a fabulous person and is very easy to work with. She provides lots of tips and guidance along the way; she and the second photographer even helped my bridesmaids figure out how to get me in my dress!

ng we knew she was the one!!! (kind of like when I met my husband!) ha! She took the greatest shots of us on our special day. The process of choosing the photos for our album was so difficult because I could have chosen all of them for our final album. Megan is a true professional and is genuinely interested in making your day as special and romantic as you always imagined it to be. I highly recommend MEGAN DANDELES PHOTOGRAPHY. Congratulations and Best Wishes to you!

e the experience was, but in a nut shell, you can't do any better than Megan ;-) I stumbled onto Megan's amazing work when I was looking at our venue's photos. She was featured on every page so I knew I had to check her out. I read all the positive reviews about her and fell in love with all the work on her website so I put all my effort into booking her and I am so happy we did! I planned most of the wedding myself and I could not have done it without Megan's expertise and guidance. At every step of the way she was anticipating what we needed to do and every detail. Our first meeting, she was so cheerful and friendly! She promised we would be fast friends and she was right! We were so nervous because her art is stunning, so we expected to be really intimidated but Megan is so approachable and such a pleasure! On the day of our engagement shoot, my hair went horribly wrong and Megan was there to save the day with all of her genius tricks! She also put us at ease. It was amazing how comfortable my partner was with PDA while Megan was photographing! My partner is NEVER cool with PDA, but Megan made it all so perfect :-) Our wedding day, Megan was such an asset. She helped us out with this amazing questionnaire and planned out our timeline for the day so we knew exactly what to do and when. When she arrived, she looked amazing and was running around taking wonderful photos of every last detail :-) During the ceremony, she graciously dodged around my relatives and friends that almost blocked her photo taking a few times. And she felt like a true friend sharing the day with us. Looking through the photos now, I honestly don't know how she did it. She got pictures from every angle, almost like she apparated from one side of the wedding to the next! She was so patient when every one seemed to want a photo with us after the ceremony and surprised us still, with some crazy aerial shots, she must have floated to get ;-) My partner and I just keep going through the photos exclaiming, "How did Megan take that?!" I must warn you, reader, every photo she takes is *perfect* which makes it IMPOSSIBLE to choose anything less than all of the photos ;-) So be prepared for tons of AMAZING photos that you will cherish for a lifetime :-D

ing eye and impeccable artistic vision. Megan also has an uncanny ability to understand the unique dynamic and special relationship between two people, and express it beautifully in her photographs. My wedding was the best day I could have ever imagined, and Megan was no small part in creating that. I cannot recommend her enough. When I first saw Megan’s photography my breath was taken away—both me and my now husband (who is a cinematographer) knew that she was our very first choice of wedding photographer. I contacted Megan about ten months before our wedding, and we had some serious planning and phone discussions about the look of the wedding and our vision for the whole event. I had a large wedding at an estate house in New Hampshire, but I was planning it from New York City, and Megan’s expertise and experience really helped me envision the whole event from afar. She is a true professional, and guided us through so many wedding planning mysteries. (Of which there were oh so many!) A few months before our wedding Megan came to New York to take our engagement photos, and both me and my husband think of this as the first wonderful event of our wedding. Megan was so positive and professional, and seemed to “get” us almost instantly. (She gave me wardrobe recommendations—including advising what belt to wear!— and then guided us through Prospect Park and Dumbo, our favorite spots in the city.) This day not only gave us a taste of what the wedding day work would be like, but also made us LOVE her. It may sound silly, but my husband and I remember her sitting in the back of the car, reassuring us that the choice of flowers and suit color for the groomsmen would look great and both feeling much more secure! She is the sweetest and smartest lady, and we just wanted to spend more time with her. Now on to the wedding day. Megan worked closely with our wedding planner so that the photography and events all went off without a hitch. Everyone tells you “something will go wrong at your wedding, be prepared for it.” My husband and I were shocked afterwards: every moment of the day went so well, and I know that Megan’s expertise was imperative to this happening! It may seem like I’m gushing, but that’s because the whole experience of working with Megan was better than we could have imagined. And I feel that I gained a friend! Working with her was nothing short of a wonderful experience. The images that Megan took captured perfectly the beauty of the setting and the true joy that my husband and I, and our families and friends felt. She's a true artist, and I feel honored to have had her photograph us. If you want to have the most beautiful and meaningful photos from your wedding, go with Megan Braemore!

es – her work speaks for itself, and I was blown away by her eye and her angles when I first looked at her work on her website. What I am most grateful for is how fantastically wonderful she was to work with. I couldn't have imagined anyone else there to spend my wedding day with me – Megan was calm and supportive, she made me feel relaxed and assured that everything was just how it should be. On the day when I was able to hand select those most close and important to me to surround me as I got ready, it can be hard to think of a stranger being involved to capture pictures of the event. But having Megan there was like having a friend with me every step of the way. And that is more meaningful to me than anything. It has also been the most wonderful feeling to have friends and family look at our wedding pictures, and all rave about how well Megan captured “us” in all of the images. I had a gut feeling about Megan the first time we spoke, and she went beyond any expectations that my husband and I had for a wedding photographer - by leaps and bounds. She is an enormous talent and simply a joy to know and work with.
