Melissa Koren Photography

nough!!

ol belt with everything you could possibly need in it! I knew hiring her she was gonna be awesome but she was even better than I could have imagined! Thank you Melissa!

g). She was happy to accommodate us. On the wedding day, we were shocked at the number of pictures she was able to take within the time frame we had booked her for. She made us feel comfortable and confident. She didn’t hesitate to help moving my dress around and even made a great suggestion about where to stand for the ceremony due to the light. We were so glad to have her there. The pictures from both sessions with her are stunning and we can’t imagine a more special way to have documented the day. We’re so thankful to have found Melissa and would love to work with her again sometime. It’s clear to us that Melissa is a true, quality professional who excels at the job she does and is passionate about her work. We’ll be highly recommending Melissa Koren Photography to anybody looking to have pictures done!

hotos on the beach! When the wedding rolled around, Melissa was so detail oriented, she kept us on schedule and made sure we all had fun! She went above and beyond the call of duty: fastening boutonnieres, bustling my dress, and keeping everyone on track! She came highly recommended to me from a friend who used her for her own wedding and we were amazed with the beautiful work she did! We were so incredibly pleased with the photos when they came back (quicker than quoted) and would recommend her to anyone looking for a wedding or special event photographer!

nal help every step of the way, not to mention her bright smile and great personality. I'm so grateful that we found her for our wedding and I can't wait to see the images she produces! Melissa, you're the best! Thank you!

taking pictures she is helping with dress issues, bustling my dress and keeping people moving! The engagement pictures are incredible and the sneak peak of the wedding ones are breathtaking! I can't wait to see the rest!

to get to know our vibe as a couple and matched that very well on the wedding day. She worked well with our families and friends capturing all the important moments without any fussing. She even worked on her birthday for us! We will enjoy the memories she has captured for us as well as the encouraging words she shared with us for many years to come.

d out beautifully! She captured bright colors, laughter, tears, and many lovely candid moments. We are so thankful we picked her for our big day. My family and friends also commented on how she genuinely looked like she was having a blast while taking photos at our reception. We highly recommend Melissa.

th anything she could. I chose her based recommendation from a friend and based off her website, which is fabulous. Her blog and her website let me see her personality and style which was totally what I was looking for. After chatting with her a little via emails and social media we booked my wedding! She gets to know you as a couple via a questionnaire which I thought was very smart. I was nervous never having met her in person, but when I finally got to meet her when I went to NH, she was very sweet! Day of came and she was very organized. We had nailed down details about a month ahead of time via her worksheet she has you fill out as far as photography of family members you want, so when the day came she gathered everyone and called out the line ups and we got them done in a timely manner, but was not rushed, was just organized which I loved. Not only that, during the getting ready in the bridal suite, when my dress literally BROKE (a clasp broke on the back when closing me in the dress, she was ready with needle and thread and sewed me into my dress. Like...WHAT?! BEST photographer ever! Not only needle and thread, she had safety pins which she used to pin the bridesmaids dresses, and a whole slew of things in her bag! Dang! She literally saved the day! Her package options are great, and competitive. She was the only photographer I had there but she can handle the job on her own. My pictures were done about a month after the wedding and I am in LOVE with them. She didn't miss a beat. She is phenomenal. I HIGHLY recommend!!

ut Melissa went above and beyond. We could not be happier with our photos and I am so grateful that Sam and I will be able to relive that amazing day for the rest of our lives through her amazing images. I haven’t stopped looking at them all day, and will now probably get nothing done for the remainder of the weekend. We met Melissa about a year ago when she did our engagement photos, and when she got my then-fiance/now-husband to actually smile in a photo, I knew she was the one for us! She didn’t disappoint. If you are looking for an amazingly professional photographer, and human “fix-it” kit, Melissa is your lady. She assisted with my dress, fixed my hair, made sure Sam and I ate, and was so kind to all of my guests. Her work speaks for itself, but if reviews are your thing, here’s mine- She is absolutely amazing and we will be going back to her for all of our future photography needs. Thank you Melissa, from the bottom of our hearts, thank you for capturing our day so wonderfully.

skilled at wrangling and organizing lots of people for the group photos! Can't wait to see the photos!!

r and book her services. One of my favorite parts of the whole process was that she is very up-front with her pricing, and it is very reasonable. The booking process was completely stress-free. My husband (who hates posing for pictures) and I had a blast at our engagement shoot, and we are in love with the pictures! As for the wedding, Melissa and her assistant went above and beyond. They were constantly snapping very thoughtful photos, but Melissa still somehow managed to help everybody get ready on time, bustle my dress, and be totally fun to hang out with. She really played a huge part in keeping things running smoothly all day. Her skill and professionalism were essential in making sure we had time for every photo we could have ever wanted during the cocktail hour. We can not wait to see our photos which we know will be absolutely breathtaking!!

albums that she created for us were gorgeous! I absolutely recommend her!!!

t to find the best of the best vendor. Let's be honest, weddings are quite frankly one of the best but fastest days of your life so pictures are THE most important thing you can have to look back on your day. When we met her we were immediately sold. Not only does she take incredibly beautiful pictures but she is just a fabulous person. She was so quick to respond to all of my emails, and she explained every little detail. We purchased a package which included an engagement session and our family and friends were blown away at how beautiful they were. When it came to our wedding day Melissa was on point, so professional and so fast. I thanked her via email the very next day. We recently received our pictures and were in complete awe at how beautiful they were and how she sent them to us(we were married 9/19). And I should add our package included all of the rights to our pictures!! If you are looking for a photographer that will do an amazing job, look no further. Melissa will amaze you!

. She really captured the feeling of the day and I can't thank her enough.

elped to keep us calm on what could've been a stressful day. We are thrilled that we chose her and will continue to use her and recommend her to others! Thanks Melissa!!

ly recommend her to anyone looking for a fun, positive, fabulous photographer! We know her work is excellent, as well, from the engagement shoot - we can't wait for the wedding photos!

blown panic attack! As embarrassed as I was she reacted like a true professional. She ran the show with my guidance and that was truly what I needed. I felt like I had an instant older sister, she has an amazing personality. I would not have changed a thing, she was a superstar!

e wanted to do. She did so much more for us than she needed to -- she stayed longer than her contracted time so that she could get pictures of our cake cutting, and she fixed my bustle!!! That was huge. She had a sewing kit with her and it took her just a few minutes to fix it so that I could dance comfortably. I don't know what we would've done without her. HIGHLY recommend!

I always feel show the story behind an event. She was extremely personable, and went out of her way for us. Price-wise Melissa was less than any other photographer of her caliber, and after having her there, I would have paid more had she asked! When my bustle hook broke, she stepped in with her magic bag of tricks and helped safety pin me so I could dance the night away. I cannot wait to have the opportunity to use her again!

ery cold engagement photo shoot in December and she immediately made us feel comfortable. She had us laughing enough that we (almost) completely forgot about the cold. After that session we were very excited to have a photographer for our wedding that we trusted, were comfortable around and genuinely liked as a person. On the wedding day she did a great job taking control of the crowd to get all the necessary shots, while still making it fun for everyone. She is also an all around wedding expert and fixed my train when it refused to stay bustled :) All of my communication with Melissa during this whole process (mostly by email) was prompt, professional and friendly. We have not seen the final results from the wedding yet, but after seeing her previous work and our engagement photos, we know we'll be happy!

iance and I relax and enjoy having our pictures taken (which we don't typically like). Her pricing is really affordable and the quality is that of an over-priced photographer (but better!).
