Melissa Mcclain Photography

ely with responding to emails, she's friendly, funny and easy to get along with. Melissa helped with a ton of ideas for our wedding and even recommended other vendors to us. Her prices are very reasonable and we are glad we chose her. Her husband, Jason, also assisted with our photography. The engagement shoot session was a ton of fun and it made us look forward to our wedding day. Our bridal party said that they enjoyed both Melissa & Jason and thought they were such fun people. I loved that she has shot many weddings at our venue because it made things go more smoothly. She does amazing work and is so creative with the camera. We have only received a few of our pictures from our wedding day but I know she will not disappoint us. One of the photos she shared on her Facebook page is breathtaking and we have received so many compliments on it. Thank you for giving us memories to hold on to for the rest of our lives!

asy online and was super accommodating when all the wedding bills came at once. A wonderful experience and the pictures are amazing!

could have dreamed - it's clear in their art that they are both passionate about photography, and I can't describe the pictures anything less than 'stunning.'

e expected photo candids of our guests, it was important to me that the photographer we used be able to also capture the uniqueness and magic of the venue. After speaking with a variety of photographers, I finally found Melissa McClain and pending her availability, I knew my search had ended. In our first conversation, Melissa provided me with the level of confidence I needed to contract with someone I had never met and whose work I was unfamiliar with. Over the course of the year leading up to the events, Melissa was always available to answer my questions and quickly responded to anything I needed. A few months prior to our event, I received an unexpected, and sweet package from Melissa as a thank you for my business. This gave me the impression that she did value our business and was vested in my event. I did not meet Jason and Melissa until the night of the event and yet, they immediately put us all at ease, got done to work and started creating our photo memories. Once our guests arrived, I hardly noticed Jason and Melissa in the venue – they were completely unobtrusive and in no way annoying. HOWEVER, when I did receive the link to my photo gallery, it was clear that they were EVERYWHERE! I had fabulous people photos, gorgeous photos of my food displays and a clear capture of the venue all this took place in. The entire gallery of photos proved to be what a great event we had and that my guests were enjoying it. I have not stopped looking at the photos and poring over the details Melissa and Jason captured, allowing me to relive the evening as well as enjoy things which as the hostess, I never saw! I highly recommend using Melissa McClain. She was a pleasure to work with, gave me a great sense of confidence – even more important when dealing sight unseen with a long distance vendor – and delivered a high quality product. I am not sure what else I could have asked for.

as going to rain a few days before, and I received a message from Melissa, telling me she knew how to make pictures awesome during the rain, and it was going to be okay. Now, I'm a Type A, stressed out bride, so getting such a quick, awesome message early made me feel 10000000% better. And let me tell you, my pictures were GREAT. We got amazing rain shots, shots under umbrellas, not to mention beautiful portraits of my bridal party and my husband and I. The professionalism of this team is great, but they also make you feel like family. There were a lot of vendors we picked over the course of weeks, but we picked Melissa McClain photography within a few minutes of meeting the team, and never regretted the decision. I'm so happy.

hotographs without anyone knowing. And they are beautiful. On top of all of this she is always ready with a smile and laugh to pass on. I am already planning more photographs to hire her for.

res turned out absolutely gorgeous and she made sure to capture a particular shot you wanted! We will definitely be working with yous in the future! 110% Thank you so much Melissa!

elped make our wedding day easy and worry-free (not to mention they take beautiful pictures :-D ). We also had an engagement shoot with Melissa which was a great way to get to know her and get comfortable with being photographed. I'd definitely recommend Melissa Mcclain Photography!!

re. They are fun, easy going, and have a great sense of humor.

engagement shoot in the snow and worked with us on NYE for our wedding and didn't complain - in fact Jason even got down in the snow to get some shots of us. Our pictures turned out incredible and we received them very fast after our wedding. I don't have any negative thing to say about them and I highly highly recommend them for your wedding.

into the pictures without a problem! The lighting and picture quality is amazing and went beyond our expectations. On top of the amazing photos, Melissa and Jason are down to earth, friendly people who made us very comfortable during all of our photo shoots. We could not have been happier selecting them and HIGHLY recommend them to anyone looking for a TOP notch, professional, friendly photographer!!

hated the idea of having pictures taken, but Jason was able to joke with him and get him to loosen up so that by the end of our engagement session he was enjoying himself! And if fun personalities aren't your only qualification I believe their pictures speak for themselves- GORGEOUS. We have been absolutely thrilled with the way our pictures turned out. The McClains were also extremely adaptable, accessible and professional throughout the entire process making this gal a very calm, happy bride! I would 100% recommend the McClain's to anyone who needs a photographer- we had a blast with them and cannot thank them enough for capturing our most special day!

vative, unique, and make YOUR wedding day experience YOURS. They are not your "cookie cutter" photographers getting the same shots at every wedding. Your experience with them will be truly one of a kind, and PERFECT. You wouldnt even know they were there, unless you actually went up to talk to them (except for the bridal photos of course)! Capturing your wedding day is the most important part of planning a wedding. If you want it done beautifully, and perfectly, they will not disappoint! Best decision made right here!

eeded). Super excited to see the finished results!

likes, dislikes, wants, concerns, etc. Great job!!! I consider pics 2nd important to the dress :) I would definitely hire them again and recommend them to couples looking for AMAZING photos!! Cannot wait to see the rest!!! 5++++ stars!!

e an amazing bunch to work with.

pture it on film. They even went to the ice rink to capture special shots for us. Their service on our wedding day was above and beyond. They not only captured beautiful photos, but provided a relaxed, yet very organized schedule for the day. After the wedding, they even uploaded a few pictures to facebook so all our friends and family could see them. I would highly recommend them for any and all photography needs!

e were so pleased with the quality of the photographs from it that we knew we made the right choice. It was awesome having a female and male team - mainly because Melissa got the girls getting ready shots and Jason worked with the guys. They were so inventive, humorous, and just made it such a fun experience. My husband doesn't enjoy pictures (especially in the heat) but Jason's sense of humor made the experience enjoyable for him and the groomsmen. We could not have picked a better team and we are SO excited to see the rest of the pictures from our wedding day. Melissa & Jason are not only skilled photographers, they really enjoy their job and it shows. The McClains easily adapt and nothing has to be set in stone. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

o get the shots we wanted and our pictures turned out awesome. Thank you Jason and Melissa!

e first time I contacted Melissa McClain to the most recent, they were quick and super friendly in their responses, and for convenience were available via email, Facebook, text, and phone. They were also very upfront with us. Melissa, Jason, and Scott photographed our engagement session, and the pictures turned out beautifully. They really have an eye and talent for what they do. Plus, my bridesmaids were all raving about how comfortable they made them feel. They are even a great judge of character. For example, during our wedding shoot, Scott gave one of our groomsmen the assignment to pose everyone in the bridal party for a photo. Our groomsman was a natural! The picture is hilarious, and it was a fun and memorable part of the day. Finally, I would definitely recommend them for a photo booth. Instead of the automatic booths that produce blurry pictures and small prints, Melissa McClain designates a professional to take the photos, which are printed on nice 4x6s. Then you get a disk with all the images. They even supply all the great props! As an added bonus, the photographer who mannned the booth also took photos before and during our ceremony, so we had 3 photographers capturing our wedding! I cannot say enough good things about this group of people! It was a pleasure to work with them. They are so down-to-earth but still so professional!

aptured many special moments of our wedding day with a creative eye. We used them for our engagement pictures in December and our pictures turned out so fantastic that we immediately decided to use them for our wedding as well. My husband's 4 year old daughter had an instant connection with Scott - he was so good with her and he captured so many of her typical expressions and such sweet pictures. We will definitely use him for family pictures in the future - we love the style of the photography, the backgrounds they select, the interesting settings, and the focus on capturing pictures of "us". I cannot wait to see the rest of our wedding pictures!! I HIGHLY recommend Melissa McClain Photography!!!

my husband and I as a couple. The best thing about them is that I never felt like I had to fake my smile and wait for it to be over. It was an incredible amount of fun and really love that they give a digital copy of what they take.
