Dear Bride,
First of all congratulations on getting engaged! (Yaaaaaay) This is such an exciting time in your life and I am so glad that you are here checking out my pictures! I absolutely love clients who have already taken the time to get to know me and my style and I am so glad that you are reading this right now. I know wedding planning can sometimes feel overwhelming but that’s why having an amazing, experienced photographer in your corner is going to help make this whole process even better.
I include a complimentary engagement session in all of my wedding packages because I want to get to know you guys as a couple. I want us to chat and get comfortable, to laugh and share some stories. I want to hear about your engagement and how you two met. Because yes I love photography, it is absolutely my passion … but I also really love LOVE and I love getting to know so many awesome couples.
I only take on a certain number of weddings a year so that I can make sure all of my couples have an amazing experience. I am always accessible to my clients and want to make sure to answer and help with everything along the way. From our first chat about your wedding to discussing a timeline for the big day, even to recommending other awesome vendors, I am here for you. On your wedding day I will be there for you too, yes I will be taking pictures but I also have assisted with many other tasks such as helping your bridesmaids get your dress bustled or finding that missing family member for a group shot during cocktail hour. And as your wedding is coming to an end when I’m set to leave, I want you to be dancing the night away with a huge smile on your face, and we will give each other a big hug because guess what … we are friends.
I don’t want to just be your wedding photographer, I want to be your story teller and I hope you allow me the opportunity to capture your love story.
Love,
Melissa

Kimberlee Russ - Hi Melissa!
My name is Kim, and I plan on marrying the love of my life in early 2016. I was curious about your rates and possibly scheduling an engagement shoot for our save the dates. I grew up with Rachael Hammer, whom you just shot. I loved how her photos turned out and would love to talk more about this with you!
Talk with you soon!
