REVIEWS

I absolutely loved working with Melissa with mindful light. She was so kind and patient with me and my family. I have a very busy toddler and Melissa worked so well with him and was accommodating making our photo shoot so relaxed. On top of making our family feel right at home, her talent is impeccable. We are so in love with the photos we obtained from our shoot. She captured our new addition as well as our whole family so perfectly. We are so happy with this photo shoot.10/10 recommend working with Melissa.

We had one shot at a newborn session and she Nailed It!

"Melissa was wonderful and has worked with us on many separate occasions and we have thoroughly enjoyed our sessions. She was always on time; she always had wonderful communication and is a very nice person. She is thoughtful, thorough, and talented. She thinks of things we don't and we have been absolutely blown away by the pictures. We started with a newborn photo session knowing we had one shot at a newborn session and she Nailed It! We were able to relax and enjoy our newborn session from the beginning. The pictures were the most beautiful pictures that we have ever seen. She captured more than what we could have ever hoped for. We followed with 2 Christmas Photo sessions, and Birthday/Family Photo sessions every year since and plan on using her for many more years to come. If you book Melissa for a session, she will take care of everything. Do yourself a favor and use her for any pictures!"

Bump to Baby Experience

"I had an amazing experience with both my Maternity shoot & Newborn pictures! I was 40 weeks pregnant when Melissa reached out to me, and so we last minute planned out a session! At that session we planned out a time and day for the newborn shoot which was a breeze. When we arrived to the appointment she had snacks for mom & dad. And outfits where we didn’t even need to worry about getting ready that morning! Definitely recommend, for a fulfilled experience. The pictures came out great, and the turnaround time wasn’t bad at all!"

Melissa does Fabulous work!

"Melissa does a fabulous work! She captured pictures of our newborn twins and I couldn’t have been more satisfied with the entire experience. From the booking, to the actual photo shoot and even down to the pickup of our photos, everything had a special touch. We are so pleased to have such great quality photos that will last our family a lifetime."

- April Turner - Rocky Mount VA

"She is wonderful and very great at working with anyone. She even had snacks and drinks as she did my baby's session. No one takes the time like she does and no one works around my busy schedule like she does. Should give her a call today and save as many memories as you can not just on your phone or Facebook lol!"

Brandy Nicole Garci - Rocky Mount, VA

"Melissa is both patient and thorough! I really appreciated the homework she did on us before the session, and her thoughtfulness and attention during the session. She told me "we work on their time," in regards to my 2 year old and newborn. Definitely recommend that families work with her to capture their memories!"
