I can’t say enough about Melissa! Not only is she the most important vendor, she is your one stop shop for everything wedding! She was so helpful throughout the entire wedding proc...
ess whether it was photography questions or literally anything else! She was the backbone of the wedding and kept things moving effortlessly. Naturally every photo she takes is exceptional and perfectly captures the day. I’ll be forever grateful that we had Melissa for our wedding day!! We’ll treasure our photos forever!
Melissa has been incredible to work with from engagement pictures through wedding pictures! She really takes the time to get to know you as a couple and to make sure she captures y...
our day perfectly. She is great at communicating, and take the time to help you in anyway she can. She works with your schedule to accommodate you as best as she can and is great at giving suggestions on places to take pictures, timeline help, and was always in eye sight throughout the whole day making sure to take pictures with guests if we wanted to. Overall she just does an amazing job! We can not wait to see what our photos look like from the wedding, from the sneak peek she gave us they are everything we hoped for!
Melissa was hands down our favorite vendor we selected for our 7.9.21 wedding! Throughout the postponement process, Melissa made the switch to our new date seamless, and as an adde...
d bonus, we even got to work directly with her instead of an associate! Before the big day, Melissa reached out to hear our story, get to know our vision and asked great questions. Once our wedding day arrived, Melissa truly shined. She was personable, professional and so down to earth! As someone who hates having their picture taken, Melissa made us feel so comfortable and made family portraits a breeze! When we received our photos a few weeks later, we were truly speechless. She captured every beautiful moment and so many that we didn't even know happened! We can't wait to work with Melissa for future life events. She is truly one in a million, and we can't thank her enough for capturing our wedding so beautifully.
Melissa,
I am forever blessed that I got recommended to you. From the start your attitude shined right through the phone call we had, and I just knew you had to be our photographe...

From taking our engagement pictures (which I bought all of them, because they were too good to only pick a few), to constantly checking up on me prior to the wedding, you gave me a certain ease that I didn't even know I needed.
The day of my wedding, I felt like you were family. Constantly reminding me to eat, asking me what is it that I need. Words really cannot describe.
Although, I have yet to see the magic you captured that day, I know it will be amazing just like all you've done thus far.
You are god sent!
Thank you
OMG!!! This is really a 1,000-star rating!!!! Melissa was so incredibly amazing! Not only did she do everything she promised, she went above and beyond! My hair stylist had an emer...
gency and couldn't make it, I tried doing my Bridesmaid's hair and it was not working, she stepped up and did her hair for me! I cannot wait to see the photos she took! My husband and I have not stopped talking about how well she did! I will recommend her forever!!! If you are looking for a photographer, stop right here and contact her immediately! You will never regret it!
Honestly, thank you is not enough for everything Melissa did for us on our wedding. She kept me grounded in the chaos that comes with wedding day fun! I know it can be a lot handli...
ng many different personalities, but Melissa did it so effortlessly--she's amazing! She makes sure that each portrait/picture that you requested is taken .
I am so happy that Melissa was a part of our unforgettable day. Melissa, thank you!!
Melissa was far and away one of the most important parts of our wedding day. I still don't understand how she got so many shots of us on her own. I'm blown away by all her shots an...
d have not stopped looking at them since I received them about a week ago. Melissa is kind, laid back, friendly and so professional. And on top of all that, she is reasonably priced. Her services were invaluable for our wedding and I will always treasure our photos. I cannot wait to hopefully work with Melissa again in the future!! Don't wait! Book Melissa NOW!
I can’t say enough about Melissa! She went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable throughout the whole process and answered any and all questions we had. Her choice on the se...
cond photographer for our wedding was amazing too! That being said we had double the most gorgeous pictures! Melissa went out of her way to get the best shots...even crawling on the ground in her pregnant state! Lol She made sure I was calm and happy throughout the whole day!
Our day was the Best Day Ever because of Melissa! Cheers!
Melissa was hands-down the best decision we made out of the entire wedding planning experience. Right from the beginning she made sure she took as much time as it was needed to com...
pletely understand our vision for our wedding day, and what we were hoping for in a photographer, and our photos. Melissa took this vision of ours and made it better than anything we could have ever hoped for or imagined ourselves.
Melissa even managed to capture our vision more perfectly than we could've imagined for our engagement photos, which were taken in the middle of a rainstorm (despite Melissa offering to move the day of the shoot, but my husband and I decided to go for it anyways).
Our wedding day was even more special with Melissa capturing our day, and not just because of the breathtaking photos she created for us. From the second Melissa walked into the door when I was getting ready, she was half-photographer, half-therapist making sure I was completely calm and ready to have the best day of my life. She made me feel like a supermodel (and the pictures make me look like one!) and made me feel at ease throughout the entire day. There were also plenty of times throughout the wedding day that she went above and beyond your typical photographer duties to make sure the day stayed on track.
My husband and I just received Melissa's photos last week, and when we sat down to look at them together we were speechless. Melissa truly captured even the smallest details of our day, and gave us the most priceless keepsake we could ever want from our wedding day. Just from looking at the photos we were able to put ourselves right back into that moment which is a truly incredible thing.
Our wedding day was the best day of our lives, and Melissa Marie Photography contributed greatly to that. There is nobody else I will ever trust when it comes to having professional photos taken and will be working with Melissa so much more in the future to continue to capture my husband and I's story!
Melissa took photos for my engagement and wedding and did an amazing job. She takes the time to get to know you in ways other photographers do not, and she strives to see your visi...
on for the photos she will take. She is driven, kind, and extremely talented at what she does. She is incredibly helpful with anything that may need to get done the day of the wedding, and was protective of my husband and I's precious time together. On top of all of that, we will cherish the photos she took for our whole lives. We absolutely LOVE them and we love Melissa, too!
We hired Melissa Marie Photography for our wedding this past September and couldn't be happier we did! We worked with Nicee who did an amazing job with both our engagement and wed...
ding photographs!! She was an absolute pleasure to work with and went above and beyond to capture the many special moments of our day so beautifully! Thank you Nicee and Melissa for all your hard work! You are both incredibly talented!
Wow. There are pretty much no words for how much I love Melissa. Her photos actually inspired me to choose the venue I ended up with - I saw what she had done with another wedding ...
there and I immediately fell in love. Once I booked the venue, I was overjoyed to find out that Melissa was still free for my wedding day. Her pictures have such a romantic, intimate feeling to them and, especially after I spoke with her on the phone, I couldn't imagine anyone else shooting our wedding.
Our package included an engagement shoot so that we could all get to know each other. I love that this is something Melissa includes in her packages. Not only did we get some BEAUTIFUL engagement photos out of it, we both felt so comfortable with Melissa after hanging out with her for the day. She has a way of making everyone relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. After that, I knew the wedding day would be a breeze.
And it was! She was like a sixth bridesmaid! She went out of her way to make the day perfect and was helpful in more ways than I could have imagined. She even stayed late to make sure that we got all the pictures we wanted! Literally everyone loved her - even the groomsmen were raving about how great she was!
And, oh my God, we just got our pictures yesterday. They are stunning. Stunning doesn't even begin to cover it. She works on every single image and, wow, you can totally tell. I am in love with all of them. I can't wait to hang them all over our house!
If you are looking for a wedding photographer, GO WITH MELISSA! You will not regret it - she is the absolute best!
Melissa Marie Photography is ABSOLUTELY amazing! I would highly recommend her to everyone! She is kind, sweet, thoughtful, and attentive to your needs! She is wonderful at what she...
does and captures great pictures! We did both our engagement and wedding pictures with her upon a friend's recommendation and quite frankly I think it was the easiest and best decision of my wedding. She is professional but fun! She even took bobby pins out of her own hair and put them in mine when I had a few stray hairs! She was wonderful at helping me to remember to take a deep breath and enjoy the moment. I will forever have these amazing photos from an amazing person and photographer. I couldn't have been happier with the services. Nicee, her co-photographer was also super kind and did great job capturing my groom's day!!!!! I think she should get extra credit for putting up with him and his groomsman:)
Melissa is such a talented photographer! She is so nice and she responded to my e-mails very quickly. She did an amazing job with all of our photos (engagement & wedding)!! I can't...
say enough good things about her. I am so grateful I used her as my photographer and I will continue to recommend her to anyone that is getting married. She is also very reasonable in terms of cost! Love, love, love melissamariephotography!!!
Melissa is fantastic! It rained on our wedding day and she did not care she was like if you don't mind getting wet neither do I. She was always trying to have the best shot, I was ...
a little scared that she would fall in the water a couple times, but she didn't. I also liked her because it is just her and one other photographer it is not a company I knew exactly who I was going to have taking photos and she knew what we wanted in our photos.
I cannot say enough great things about Melissa. From the minute I booked with her I felt at ease with our wedding photography and so happy we choose her for our September 8 wedding...
. She was beyond helpful in every way. She shot amazing engagement photos for us!! We get non stop compliments. I even made one of the photos into a big canvas and hung it in our living room!! My wedding day was full of craziness and she was like another bridesmaid helping me with everything. My hairstylist unfortunately put my veil in wrong and Melissa came right to my rescue to fix it!!! Every step throughout the day she helped with so much not just our wedding photos. She helped not only put my veil in but helped take it out. Then my dress had a wire poke through in the top of the corset right under the arm. She went and got sissors to cut it out. I cannot thank her enough for everything she helped me with. If I could give her a 10 I would!! She is beyond an amazing photographer!! Nicee also was our second photographer and she too was like another bridesmaid. She was so incredably nice and helpful!! She was more then willing to get right in on the action of the dance floor. My experience with Melissa and Nicee is beyond phenomunal!!! I am so thankful and honored to say they were our wedding photographers!!!
Melissa is great!! Not only is she sweet and nice, she also takes awesome pictures!! I never got so many compliments on pictures before! In her wedding package engagement pictures ...
were included, which at first we weren't sure we needed them but we are now so happy to have them! Melissa lets you pick the place to have them which adds to the special feeling of them. On our wedding day, she was so helpful whether it was making sure people were in the right place at the right time, helping me fix my dress, and also wearing my veil when I got sick of it! I would highly recommend Melissa Marie, she is the best!!
Couldn't have asked for a better photographer or more stunning pictures!!!!!
Amazing photographer and person. So artistic! She was with us all day and night and did a splendid job. She comes highly recommended.
Melissa is great and does a wonderful job. Plus she gets your photos to you very quickly after the wedding--which is amazing because she hand edits every picture to make it look th...
e best.
I LOVED having Melissa photograph our wedding - she's a great resource, very chill and takes some fabulous photos!
Where do I even start with Melissa?! I hadn't met her before the wedding (though we talked on the phone/email and I felt like I already knew her) and yet within 10 minutes of meeti...
ng, we were laughing and I felt so comfortable. Throughout the day, Melissa gave advice and help and was just there for me. She got all the pictures done and the CD to me within a week and a half - which is incredible!! Can I just say - I'm in LOVE with my pictures - and so is everyone else. I knew she did amazing work, but I am blown away with my pictures and look at them constantly! I wish I could bring Melissa along with me in life to take pictures of every big moment - she is truly just awesome!
Melissa was absolutely wonderful! She felt like my assistant for the day. She makes you feel very comfortable....she felt like part of the family. The pictures she took were bea...
utiful. I was very happy and I am a very particular person when it comes to pictures. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to have beautiful pictures taken by a person who obviously loves her job!
She is young energetic very flexible and great to work with. Her prices are very reasonable and at the end she will hand over all images to you to own.
