I came across Corazon Photography one day on my Instagram explore page. After going through her feed and website for hours I knew I needed Melina to document my big day. After filling out her online questionnaire Melina reached out shortly after and was able to meet her one-on-one at a local coffee shop. Needless to say Melina was one of the first vendors I booked for my wedding (over a year in advance) and I am forever grateful I was able to come to that decision so quickly. From the moment I booked, Melina was always just an email or text away. She not only took my engagement and wedding pictures but also my family pictures with over 20 people in the group! Every single session I had with her she showed extreme professionalism and delivered pictures beyond my wildest dreams. On my wedding day she was not only my photographer but was literally my right hand. She not only took the time to capture all our moments but made sure my husband and I were stay hydrated throughout the night and was an advocate for my husband and I to take a moment for ourselves to really take in our big day which is now forever a core memory. Going with Melina was the easiest "yes" and best decision I made for my wedding day and I am so excited to see the rest of my wedding day pictures because I know Melina will deliver! read more

Highly recommend Corazon Photography! Can't wait to book my next session. read more

I found Corazon Photography on Pinterest. I always wanted to feel like the photos I pin on my boards... but often times you never see POC couples/families. However, she made that happen. As a family of three she was able to capture some sweet moments between my husband, my son and I.

I absolutely cannot wait to book her for our wedding! please book her you won't regret it! read more

Melina was so kind, patient and she was so fun to work with My husband and I had never had a professional photoshoot before but thank goodness I came across Melina's Instagram account and immediately fell in-love with her work. She made our first maternity photo session feel comfortable, fun and made me feel so confident and beautiful the entire time. We didn't have a clear idea of what it was we wanted our photos to look like...but we did want like a western/ vintage vibe with a beautiful scenery of the sun in the background. And oh boy, Melina outdid herself, she knew the perfect location for us and the right angles and even climbed up hills to capture the perfect image. She made our photoshoot feel so fun and easy, we will definitely be looking forward to working with her again soon Thank you Melina for everything, working with you was the best decision we could've ever made -Luis & Maria read more

Such an AMAZING photographer! Her work is beautiful, I booked her for my maternity shoot and I completely fell in LOVE with every single picture she took. When shooting she was such a nice person, super friendly and professional. At the end of the shoot she asked and made sure we were satisfied with the poses we had done. One thing i LOVED about her shooting us is that she made my boyfriend and I feel super comfortable and had us look into each other's eyes and tell each other what we loved the most about one another. Which to me was absolutely amazing. She made me feel connected with my boyfriend while capturing such an amazing moment during my pregnancy. I will definitely be booking her again....
