"Melanie was an absolute dream to work with for our small Laguna wedding."

Melanie was an absolute dream to work with for our small Laguna wedding. We wanted someone local to the area, and when we found her Instagram we fell in love with her work. She was incredibly responsive, SO kind, had amazing communication, and put us at ease with the entire process. She even helped us plan other aspects of our wedding, gave us referrals for floral, hair and make up, and even helped us choose our reception dinner. During the ceremony / after ceremony photos she was SO good with my kids, family and getting the perfect shots. I had full confidence in her, and she single handedly created wedding magic. Can’t wait for vow renewals one day!

We used Melanie for our elopement and family photos. Melanie is the best! She is so kind and patient with the whole family. Not to mention she's great with kids! I have now used her for various types of photography and she's fantastic with all settings. She's quick to get photos to you after editing. I love how flexible she is with being able to schedule what works for my family. I have used her many times and plan to book some more shoots pretty soon! You will be impressed with Melanie's work! Don't hesitate book her!
