About this vendor
**SAVE $500 WHEN BOOKED BY 2/18/2019**
Hi! I’m Melania. That rhymes with lasagna, in case you're stuck. I’m a photographer based out of Central PA. That warm, flock o' butterflies feeling when you're in love? I get that every time I hear a new love story. I believe in adoration and connections. I believe that love never fails. That life is best when there's slow dancing in the living room, forehead kisses and being understood.

Words can't describe the experience that Melania provided for our wedding. She was more than a photographer. She was our anchor that kept us on time and in the know with what was...
happening. Both her and her second shooter were a calming force when both my husband and I were so so nervous. We got our pictures back within 1.5 months and they are stunning. She was so accommodating and listened well to our needs/wants. 100/10
There is no one else we would have rather used for our wedding photos than Melania. She was by far the best investment we made on our wedding day. My wife and I have been going to ...
Melania for years and her work is top notch. She has turned into a great friend of ours. Our wedding photos turned out amazing and we highly recommend her!
Let’s put it this way: Melania will be the only photographer we use for all our photo needs! Our wedding pictures turned out amazing! I asked her in the beginning to assist me with...
time management (I’m terrible at that) and true to her word she did. She would come up and quietly tell me “ok we should be doing these photos now”. She even managed to get my teenage son to smile-which is a feat in itself. Since our wedding we’ve always had a large family session and are gearing up for my sons senior photos!
Melania made this experience everything we dreamed of and more! She not only took stunning photos, but took the extra time and measures to make sure that our day went smoothly. The...
day of our wedding she was there every step of the way making sure myself and my hubby to be had everything we needed. Nothing ever felt awkward of forced with her, all of the smiles and laughs in our photos are 100% genuine! We are both kind of shy and never like having our photos taken but working with Melania was such a fun, and comfortable experience that now we can’t stop looking at all of our photos! She is worth every penny and treats you like a friend rather than just a client. We will definitely be using her for future events and life milestones in the future!
Melania is the absolute BEST wedding photographer. She makes you feel so comfortable, laughs with you, cries with you, and produces the most amazing photos! We have worked with her...
for years doing family photos and there was no doubt we wanted her to do our wedding. Unfortunately COVID 19 affected our original wedding plans and we decided to elope instead. Melania was incredibly flexible and did whatever she could for us! She would do anything for any of her clients. We are so so happy with our wedding photos and feel blessed to have gotten to work with Melania. I promise you will not be disappointed.
Melania is amazing! She truely will do anything to get the best shot for you. She not only becomes your wedding photographer, but a close friend as well. Her boyfriend Matt, is gr...
eat too. He joined her to assist with our engagement shoot. Within minutes of leaving our shoot, she had five rough edits from her phone, to give us a sneak peek. I would absolutely recommend her for your engagement, wedding, or family picture needs. We cannot wait to see our engagement photos and are looking forward to her documenting the best day of our lives!
Melania is more than a photographer. The moment she comes into your life, she is a friend. She has this way of making you feel so calm and comfortable around her, which helps her c...
apture the real moments. I have never been more impressed with a photographer than I have with Melania. I first met her at a wedding in 2012 and since then, she has done photography for multiple friends' weddings because she is the only one I will ever recommend!
There aren't enough words to express how much we loved having Melania as our wedding photographer! From the moment we first talked with her, we knew she was going to be perfect. At...
our engagement photo session, she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera almost instantly. She worked with us throughout the planning process to make sure she knew exactly what would be going on the day of our wedding so that she wouldn't miss a beat. Your wedding photographer is someone you spend almost as much time with on your wedding day as your bride/groom (if not more!), and she has a spark and personality that is just great to be around. Her eye for the perfect shot and her ability to take breathtakingly beautiful photos is why we first chose her to be our wedding photographer, but she as a person is the reason we felt like we made a lifetime friend. Look no further and book Melania!!
Melania is AMAZING to work with! She did a fantastic job with our engagement photos.
Specifically, she made us feel very comfortable during our shoot, which allowed us to show our...
true selves in the photos (kind of the point, right?).
Melania's attention to detail and creativity also amazed me. She has an amazing eye for sites and backdrops that I would otherwise have never thought of.
I ABSOLUTELY recommend Melania!
I definitely recommend Melania! Choosing a photographer for your wedding is a little different than choosing your other vendors because you spend so much more time with your photog...
rapher. They're there with you from your engagement shoot through wedding day and beyond. It's extra important to choose someone you trust and who you get along with. Melania is both of those things - super talented photographer and enjoyable person to be around! She was also really helpful in recommending other vendors and beauty items for wedding day. Again, I highly recommend!
Melania Marta photography was one of the best decisions we made planning our wedding. Melania and her second shot Holly captured the most amazing moments on our wedding day and wil...
l forever cherish their photos. We highly recommend Melania Marta for ANY occasion
WOW! What can I say about Melania? There is absolutely NONE like her. She is much more than just a vendor, and you will leave your wedding feeling like you have made a friend for l...
ife. We had Melania for our engagement photos, our wedding day, and our one year anniversary photos. She keeps you relaxed, happy, and laughing the whole time. She pays attention to every detail, and takes the time to learn what you like and dislike about yourself in photos to make sure she doesn't let it happen! Two of my brides used her for their weddings because they witnessed how amazing she is. Book her today---you won't regret it!
Melania is every bit as magnetic as she claims to be. The bride and groom spend most of their big day with their photographer, and I can't wait to spend mine with Melania. Our enga...
gement pictures are a perfect representation of our love and Melania's skill.
I have used Melania as my go to photographer for the last 7 years every step of the way. She not only always ends up getting the most unique shot that not only captures your engage...
ment, wedding, family, etc., but captures your life, love and laughter. A picture is always worth more than 1000 words when Melania is taking it.
I am in the performing arts, as well as a filmmaker- so I had a very specific look and idea for my wedding photography. Melania did a great job capturing that, as well as listening...
to my requests (specific shots and specific post production ideas). We had an amazing environment, getting married on the coast of NC, and they were able to capture the entire day, so perfectly.
Melania has completely blown me away, and this is not only speaking to the amazing moments that she captured for our engagement and our wedding day. She has blown me away by being...
a #1 supporter leading up to and even after the wedding. Melania was always there for questions and concerns and has truly become a friend. We had a HUGE wedding and bridal party (350 guests and 30 - yes the 2 of us plus 12 bridesmaids, 13 groomsmen, and 3 kids) and she managed everything as though it was no big deal. Holly was also FANTASTIC and kept the men in line. We also opted for the photobooth which was a huge hit and well worth the added cost. It was a military wedding and we appreciate all of the support and pride that Melania and Holly put into making our wedding beyond amazing. HIGHLY RECOMMEND doesn't even begin to describe.
She was great and so was her team!! She did a great job of organizing everyone and making sure my sister and brother in law got all of the pictures they wanted. Bottom line, if you...
want the wedding pictures you've already dreamed of, go with her.
Melania has been amazing every step of the way. Our engagement photos turned out beautiful and we receive compliments all the time! You can tell she loves her job and is very good ...
at making you feel comfortable in front of the camera! Cannot wait for her and Holly to photograph out wedding day!
From the moment I saw some of Melania's images on a friend's Facebook page, I knew that she HAD to be my wedding photographer.
Boy was I right. Melania's fun personality and ...
constant humor made shoots feel relaxed and comfortable. As we met her for pre-wedding planning meetings and our engagement photo shoot, she became more than just another wedding vendor- she became a great friend.
She comes to your event prepared - knowing the plan and the people involved. This was essential when rain was arriving to our outdoor wedding in minutes and we needed family photos done quickly. She was able to execute each of the portraits that we had wanted in the few minutes that we had available.
Ultimately, Melania gave us unforgettable images that we will treasure for a lifetime. She was there for us on the most important day of our lives, and we plan to continue having her as a part of our big moments!
We would recommend Melania Marta Photography to anyone without hesitation.
When we first got engaged, we knew without a doubt that we wanted Melania to photograph our wedding. Two of our friends used her services and had rave reviews, but little did we kn...
ow just how wonderful she was! She took the time to make our engagement session exactly what we wanted. She did not rush the pictures and she made us feel very comfortable. We felt like one of our friends was taking pictures for us! Melania loves to get to know her couples and treats you like family. We are very pleased with our engagement photos and we cannot wait for her to shoot our July 2016 wedding!
Melania is great! Our engagement photos turned out beautiful and she was able to capture the perfect moments that showed our love for each other. I have received LOTS of compliment...
s on our engagement photos and they are definitely pictures that will last as lifetime. Melania makes you feel so comfortable and catches the best candid moments. Can't wait for her to photograph our wedding day!
Melania loves LOVE and SHE LOVES HER JOB! It's evident by the way she captures such special moments. There was no question who we wanted to take our wedding pictures. Basically, th...
ere would be no wedding unless Melania and her camera were there. In all seriousness, this is your gal. This is the person who will bring all the crazy planning together and you will see exactly how beautiful your wedding was. You will see photos that you forgot were taken, moments you didn't know were captured, and photos of your nieces and nephews dancing. Right before you walk down the aisle, she will capture the few precious moments you can share with your mother who has dementia and doesn't realize her youngest daughter is getting married that day. Melania can handle it all.
If you are looking for someone who TRULY goes above and beyond for those unique shots and puts her heart into her work, look no further than Melania Marta Photography. Melania has ...
such an energy and excitement that gets you even more pumped during your photos. I ABSOLUTELY loved working with her and will make her my go-to gal for ALL my future family needs. She was SO incredibly patient with my oldest son who lives with Autism and even contacted me weeks in advance to see what she could do to make for a smoother day for Ethan. Not enough words to express how THRILLED I am with our photos and memories Melania captured! You can NOT go wrong by choosing her! THANK YOU AGAIN, MANY TIMES OVER MELANIA!
Like many other brides, photography was the MOST important part of my wedding planning process and was my #1 to-do. I spent MANY hours (too many if you ask my fiancé) looking for t...
he perfect photographer. Once I came across Melania's webpage, I was in awe of her style and her ability to capture 'the moment'.
Melania takes the time to get to know each of her couples so that she can highlight your relationship perfectly through photographs. We will cherish our photographs for years to come!
If we had to start our wedding planning process all over again, there is no doubt that we would choose Melania time and time again! Not to mention - by the end of this process, I am sure that we won't just be 'clients/aquaintences', but also friends.
Update Post Wedding October 2015: There isn't enough to say about Melania --- she makes promises and she delivers! Thanks to her, my husband and I have the most amazing engagement and wedding photos to treasure forever. Our 'best day ever' wouldn't have been complete without MMP! Beyond being a photographer... she becomes your friend! Highly recommend you book her NOW!
Melania was the photographer at my best friend's wedding where I had the pleasure of serving as M.O.H. The bride raved about her for months, I loved every engagement shot, and I wa...
s so excited to finally meet her on the wedding day. She was so enthusiastic and professional and totally lived up to everything I had been told. Her shots of the wedding were beautiful and her natural talent for helping to organize the day and exude wedding spirit was so infectious that I made sure she was free before I set my own wedding date. I'm so excited to continue to work with her!
Melania has a fantastic personality and the perfect eye for a photographer. We loved the job she did for us and recommend her highly.
I've been to multiple weddings that Melania has photographed and have nothing but wonderful things to say about this women and the moments that she captures on her camera. She is ...
professional, knows how to make people comfortable, and most importantly, captures beautiful memories. Oh, and did I mention that she is an absolute blast to be around?
Overall, she is amazing!!! Her work is amazing!!! And you'll love the way she can capture the love between two people.
LOVE LOVE LOVE HER!
I loved working with Melania. She made the whole wedding day smooth. Melania does amazing work!! I was so happy with both my engagement and wedding photos. I will def use her agai...
n in the future.
I was Melania's first wedding almost five years ago and she was fantastic then. It's amazing to see someone who has a natural talent, My wedding was captured more beautifully than ...
I ever could have imagined. I love seeing all the weddings Melania does and how she surprisingly continues to improve even after you think she can't improve anymore. She's the best accessory for your upcoming wedding, no doubt.
Melania was a wonderful photographer with the cutest personality! She makes you smile, and feel very comfortable! You won't be disappointed! My daughters wedding pictures were beau...
tiful, and really captured the day!
Melania was absolutely amazing! She is not only your photographer but she is a friend and willing to do anything and everything to make your day amazing!! Love love love her!!!
from the engagement session to the wedding... We couldn't have asked for a more perfect photographer ! Melania takes the time to learn about her clients personalities and stories ....
. She uses this to make your pictures and sessions authentic to you as a couple rather than the generic scenes and poses you see everyone else do. Melania is hilarious and so fun to be around!!! Everyone has a good time and she makes everyone feel so comfortable. She also offers an awesome payment plan :) don't believe me about how awesome she is? Skype with her and I bet you'll end the conversation with "you're hired". She is also an amazing mother who dedicates time to childhood cancer research and awareness and has an awesome family and outlook on life. If we could do everything over again, we wouldn't think twice about selecting Melania Marta photography.
Melania is an amazing photographer! When you hire her you not only get the best wedding photographer you also great a lifetime friend! She is so much fun and will do anything to ma...
ke your day special! What I loved the most was at the reception we got to see pictures from earlier on in the day on melania ' s wedding ipad! It was so amazing and all our guest could get a sneak peek with us! Melania did our engagement and wedding photos and I couldn't be happier!
Funny story...Melania became our photographer when the one that we hired decided to bail about a month before our big day. I know, right?! Anyway, it turned out to be the BEST mish...
ap ever. She put us at ease immediately, and assured us that we would not be left hanging.
Our first meeting was like hanging out with an old friend. She is so easy to communicate with. She was very thorough and organized, and wanted to make sure that every shot we wanted would get taken. On the big day, she was everything we needed...on time, in awesome spirits, and knew how to manage her time. This lady loves her job! By the end of the night, she was more like a guest than a vendor.
Once we got the photos, we loved Melania even more. Such great shots. All in all, a great vendor to have on your side.
So what can I say about Melania!? SHE IS AMAZING! Melania and Holly were there every step of my wedding day, and I couldn’t be happier with how all the pictures turned out. She ...
is truly awesome at what she does and any bride would be lucky to have her shoot their wedding. What I love most about Melania is how she was not just a photographer to me. During the entire wedding process, she was always willing to give me her opinion and advice on things. She helped me keep sane. By the time my wedding came around Melania was not just a photographer, she was a friend. This made my wedding day that much more fun! Thank you Melania for making my wedding day THAT much more special; I couldn’t have asked for anyone better.
Melania was hands down our favorite vendor out of all for our wedding!! I cannot say enough wonderful things about her as a photographer, and just as a kind person to be around. ...
From day-one she listened to my ideas and brought her own creative ideas to the table. She had such a wonderful energy and was a true delight to work with. We had to reschedule our engagement shoot twice, and she was always flexible and easy going. We had such a wonderful time (yes, even my husband) at our engagement picture. Melania was on time delivering our photos and we were blown away by them all. Beautiful shots, some posed, some more candid. She is an expert at capturing the light and making every photo stunning. She also is great at finding ways to capture every couple she photographs to showcase their individuality. In the weeks leading up to the wedding, she was always quick to respond to an email, and we had a great give-and-take regarding scheduling and wedding details, leading up to the day of the wedding. At the wedding, she was the perfect person to keep by your side throughout the day. She was upbeat and cheerful, but still practical about timing and details throughout the day. Her second shooter, Jane, was also a great addition. Both ladies were present whenever they were needed, but knew how to blend in when it was called for. Melania also had a slideshow of images from earlier in the day for guest to view during the reception – what a great treat! (Not to mention a tease for me wanting to see the rest of the images!!) I would recommend her to anyone at all as a top of the line photographer who is a true delight to work with – I plan to use her again for photograph needs in the future!!
Melania did a photo booth at out wedding and got awesome pictures! She is great and really added so much fun to our day!
Melania was a blessing from the moment I found her. She is more than a photographer, she becomes a friend! Everyone, even my husband who is slow to warm up to anyone, LOVES her. ...
Melania is so creative and unique with her shots. I just love all the different images we have of our wedding day! She thinks of shots that most photographers wouldn't... Everyone has been commenting on the "original" and "unique" shots we now have as keepsakes of our special day. Melania also provided us with a photo booth, which was AWESOME! Everyone had a blast, even my always way too serious father had a sparkley hat and over-sized sun glasses on. The owner of the venue was so amazed and impressed with Melania and her work that she is now recommending her to all her brides to be :) Melania was the best investment possible. Everyone should be so lucky as to have a gallery of amazing wedding photos to cherish forever like we do... And if you chose Melania Marta Photography for your wedding, you will too. Her pictures will take your breath away!
