We hired Melanie for our April wedding. We made an absolutely great decision there…read more We first met Melanie to do our engagement photos at the Blanton, those obviously turned out stunning, as she was able to get both of us to open up a little bit and get some good shots of us. Highly recommend doing an engagement session first, the chance to work with her twice was so awesome! Emails with her were always responded to in a very timely manner, and she was very helpful with any questions I had, so great to work with. She and her assistant James showed up and were ready to go on time, kept our day running smoothly through all the photos we wanted taken and they got so many shots of things that I didn't even think of! Finishing off the night with a gorgeous nighttime shot! Their personalities shone throughout the day, everyone was talking about how amazing and fun our photographers were.This was the first time that Melanie had worked with James, but you could not tell in the least, the two worked so well together and then the way they worked with the guests...I can't compliment them enough! As for the final product, it was beyond compare. Somehow she made it seem like when I scroll through the pictures of the day that I am just walking through memories of that day. It's so amazing, I truly am unable to pick my favorite pictures from the day, because they're all beautiful. I'm so glad that we hired her for our day, she made it truly great the day of and then the gift that keeps on giving, the memories she gave me are a true treasure. Hire Melanie anytime you want something important photographed, or you know just because you need pictures and want someone amazing to do it!

TEN GLITTERY STARS!…read more She-N-He are great. We found them at a "wedding extravaganza" convention in 2009. Most of the photography booths were hard to tell apart, and it seemed like theirs was the only one with a definite /style/. I didn't interact with "he" much, but "she" was awesome. Melanie and a helper photographed our wedding. They were friendly, relaxed, and totally flexible - there was no rigid list of shots to get, and they did some fun stuff working with the location. If you hire them, your wedding photos will look like a dream sequence in a slick modern magazine. That's probably because she's also a magazine photographer... http://www.melaniegrizzel.com/Grizzel_Portfolio.html Of the things that my husband and I paid for, the photography was a big ticket item. Before we started shopping for anything, we made a priority list (food, clothes, photo, venue, etc) and decided that even if everything went wrong, if it rained, and the cake fell over, and my dress was torn, and our friends had a brawl by the keg, it would all be okay if we had amazing photos. Because memories are strong, but photos can repaint your memories in better light. Luckily the day was perfect, but the gorgeous pictures help me remember it even more fondly :)

I booked a newborn session with Anja on 9/19 for today, 10/4. It was last minute, as newborn…read moresessions go, so when Anja wasn't super responsive to my emails after we booked, while frustrated, I didn't think much of it. We had a 10am appt, and at 9:51am, she emailed me to say she wasn't coming because a. she didn't have confirmation from me, and b. she didn't have my address. I have every email we exchanged saved, and I have proof that a. I confirmed on Sunday the 1st and b. I had given her the address immediately after booking on 9/19. I immediately emailed her back, as well as calling several times and texting. I sent her the screen shots of these emails and explained, via all these channels, that I was heartbroken. I had gotten up extra early to get my entire family ready for photos, which is no small task when you are getting no sleep with a newborn and have a toddler to contend with as well. I was SO looking forward to capturing these photos, as my daughter was born early and was already on the "older" side for newborn photos. I still have not heard back from her in any way, shape, or form. So unprofessional, disrespectful, hurtful, and just rude. This is certainly not a woman who should be running her own business, let alone catering to brand new parents who are already in a fragile state of mind.

Chad shot our family photos a few months ago, and I keep thinking back to how wonderful he was…read moreevery time I look at them so I felt compelled to leave a (late) review. Trust me, it is NO easy task to get two adults, three kids under 12, and two dogs (a puppy and a senior) to get together in front of a camera - but Chad had plenty of strategies up his sleeve to pull it off! He took us to multiple different settings and got awesome shots of all seven of us together and apart each time. Not to mention he was responsive and prompt, easy to talk to, and had great energy with the dogs and kids - the kids said that he was their favorite photographer they've ever had! We'll definitely be coming back to Chad for more!

The pictures were amazing and he was able to get pictures of about 30 people with multiple family groups. The photos really captured the event in a natural way with a definite artistic element as well - he is a very gifted photographer. I highly recommend Chad and would have no hesitation hiring him for our next photo shoot.
