Melissa and her team were an absolute pleasure to work with. I had Melissa shoot my engagement pictures about a year before our wedding, and we were immediately impressed with her photos. But once we started to receive our wedding pictures back we were beyond impressed. She was so helpful throughout the entire process.
Mallory & Andrew
We were lucky enough to have Melissa as our photographer for both our engagement shoot and our Newport wedding in October 2025 and could not be happier. Not only is she the kindest, most personable, easiest person to work with, but her results are phenomenal. The aesthetics felt true to who we are and we are so happy to have these memories forever. Don't hesitate in booking Melissa!!

On the day of Melissa was in the background doing her job basically unnoticed. She captured everything beautifully without inserting herself. So many favorites I can’t count! Can’t recommend Melissa enough if you want the most beautiful photos with a storybook, candid element, 10/10 would recommend and one of our favorite vendors of all time !

Of the hundreds of decisions a wedding requires the couple to make, booking Melissa was the easiest. She was the calming presence you need that day, but she was also efficient and amazing at the same time. Our photos are the most beautiful wedding photos I've ever seen. Our best friends are getting married next year and they didn't hesitate to book Melissa knowing how fantastic all of our photos came out. We can't recommend Melissa enough!

My husband and I are so grateful that Melissa and Bethany, were able to take our wedding photos. They both are so sweet and so incredibly talented! We could not have asked for a better duo to capture our special day! From the beginning of planning up to the wedding day, Melissa made everything so easy. She has the ability to capture both timeless and unique shots that will take your breath away. Her photos went above and beyond our expectations! We 1000% recommend Melissa and Bethany.
Samantha & Jordan
Melissa took our engagement photos and our wedding photos and they are STUNNING. She has such a calming presence and knows how to capture every special moment in the most amazing ways. Melissa is the sweetest person and was so flexible when we needed to reschedule our wedding due to the pandemic. She’s truly amazing and I am so grateful she captured our special day. Do not look any further for your wedding photographer.
