She remembers important details about them, thinks ahead about what a client might need during their session (from jewelry kits to extra binky's for toddlers to umbrellas!) and goes out of her way to celebrate her seniors and congratulate them long after their session. I cannot recommend her more highly!

No two sessions are exactly the same because no two clients are exactly the same. We craft your custom portrait photoshoot inspired by your vision. From hair and makeup pampering to capturing your images using your natural posing tendencies and some gentle guiding on the day of the shoot, WE'VE GOT YOU! Did you know that you can book your own consultation and ordering appointment at a time that is convenient for you? Or that we have a lighting assistant on all of our shoots? Or that we hand edit every purchased image? Or that we will install your custom wall gallery in your home or office? We have so much to share with you! It all starts with the style and planning consultation. We're looking forward to your call!

She has always captured amazing candid photos of my boys even if the behind the scenes could be tricky. This past spring she also captured my sisters wedding and the photos came out amazing. The ring bearers (which were my boys) may not have posed for many photos but she knows how to work with them and got some very cute/handsome pictures! She is great to work with, super relaxed, and willing to try any ideas thrown her way. I look forward to our yearly session! Thanks Kim! -Hannah R.

We had the most wonderful experience with Shelby who took our wedding photos! She was so easy to…read morework with, especially as we were planning a wedding in South Bend, IN while living in St. Louis, MO. Everything was easy breezy and we didn't even meet until close to the ceremony! And even though we only met once before the wedding weekend, The photographers were actually such a fun presence with us on our big day that they felt like friends we had known and invited as guests to our wedding! They had a great way of leading us into amazing shots and poses but still allowing for natural, organic interactions making beautiful candids. Her turnaround was so fast with all our photos, and she was incredibly patient as it took us WAY too long to make our selections for our photo book. Shelby is an absolute gem, her photos are gorgeous, and she was a joy to work with! I would hire her 100 times over!

After thoroughly looking for photographers for over a month, we're glad that we discovered Melissa…read more She was extremely responsive and made herself quickly available to connect via video chat to discuss our options. We were hoping to get photos done before our son's 1st birthday and she was able to provide us with a great date/time option. We really lucked out. On the day of our shoot we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The drive to the studio was beautiful and worth it - we drove from over 30 minutes away. The studio was immaculate and ready to go for our time together. Her prep email was extremely detail oriented and let us know exactly what to expect. Once there we could easily see the setups and there was a perfect place for us to finish getting ready. Even though we brought most of our outfits she also offered an additional one for us to use and it photographed so lovely. Lastly, the cake smash session was literally the icing on the cake. She has a wonderful referral that made the most beautiful cake for us. Our custom banner was EXACTLY what we were looking for in terms of colors and vibe. She got our son to warm up, have fun, and capture his personality. Melissa's patience, professionalism, strong communication via email/text, and warmth was much appreciated as first time parents for our first shoot. We look forward to working with her again in the future!

I would highly recommend Melissa Hartigan Photography! She took our maternity photos and they are…read moreabsolutely beautiful! She helped me pick out a lovely gown from her collection of maternity gowns to borrow for the photo shoot. She was even so kind to reschedule a gown try on when I accidentally missed the appointment!

We couldn't be more thankful and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for maternity photos!

I gave Hana 5 stars on Yelp but if I could give her 100, I would…read more First of all, it is important to realize that there are a zillion photographers out there. I have used a small portion of that number - from JC Penny Portrait studio to the high end photographers. While Hana isn't the least expensive, I guarantee that the results you will get are outstanding. She made my bald husband feel great about his looks - she made my mother look like Heidi Klum (someone really said that when they saw her pics!). She listens, she aims to please, she is artistic but also extremely technically skilled. One tip - if you have a certain inspiration pic that you love, I recommend sending it to her. She won't necessarily re-create or copy it as she definitely has her own style - but she will have an idea as to what type of photos make your heart sing. I didn't want the happy, bubbly toddler pics - I wanted serious expressions from my daughter, all of the pouts, etc. - and what she captured was more than I could have asked for - plus, I got a bunch of those happy pics in addition! And last, her editing is top notch. Her photos look so natural, often photojournalistic, yet they are polished and you will feel as though you are hanging fine art on your wall. Highly recommend! She really is as good as it gets!
