Melissa Squires/A Girl in Love Photography shot our engagement and wedding pictures last year and…read morewe had a great experience with her! She is so lovely to work with and made us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We loved spending time with Melissa and her presence felt more like that of a friend than of a wedding vendor. She was very responsive over email (we conducted most of our wedding planning long distance) and was also so receptive to our suggestions/requests. Our photographs were wonderful and we couldn't have picked a better photographer to capture our wedding day.

Full disclosure: Marc-Gregor is a friend of mine…read more Be that as it may he was our pick to photograph our wedding and we couldn't be happier with the photos. He's a professional through and through and the photos he takes are amazing. Some friends of ours weren't happy with the photos other photographers took of their wedding day or event. They wish they went with someone else. If this is your wedding day or some other important event to you then why take the chance with someone else? If you go with Marc-Gregor you can rest assured your photos will be spectacular.

As a web designer, I see a lot of stock photos on people's websites, and didn't want the same feel for our company website. Knowing this, we hired Marc-Gregor to create a consistent and appealing series of photographs that set us apart from so many others out there. He took an incredible amount of care in crafting the philosophy behind the photographs, and a tireless perfectionism in the field in order to get the photos just right. After being so impressed with how the photos came out for our website, I hired him to take some family photos as a Christmas gift. We got the whole family together one afternoon, trekking around Ann Arbor and getting a number of creative and fun pictures of the family. Throughout the experience, Marc-Gregor's professionalism was top-notch while maintaining an easy-going and personable attitude that made the whole experience a great one (even though it was quite cold!). In many ways, Marc-Gregor convinced me of the true value of quality photography. Prior to my experience with him, I had relegated photography as something that happened in art galleries and senior pictures, but had little place in the office or casual family events. After seeing the end results of working with Marc-Gregor, I've been convinced of the practical importance of photography, and will hold all others to the high bar that Marc-Gregor has set.

She made sure mine and the groom's needs were met with the photos wanted and much more. Her equipment is top of the line. She was great at getting people's attention and knew what would look great in locations and lighting. She was good at hiding in the crowd at the reception, no one really noticed her. My family and friends had nothing to say but wonderful things about Melanie. My husband and I are looking forward to seeing how the photos turned out, we know they will be great. Melanie is definitely worth the money and I recommend her for any photography needs!

She was also kind enough to work with our budget, and went above and beyond to make sure we got great photos in an efficient amount of time. To say she was a good value is an understatement. Melanie has such an eye for composing the shot, and great ideas for posing and content so that you can just let go and relax and let her do her magic. We felt so comfortable with her and her assistant Deana, which makes for even better photos and enjoying your wedding that much more. She's the kind of photographer who will fix details of your wedding that have nothing to do with the pictures, just because she's good people. Her whistle to get babies' attention is awe-inspiring, haha, seriously. She's just the best.

She is shooting my sister's wedding in Arizona next year. She shot family portraits for us for the holidays. She is super energetic, extremely friendly and has a heart of gold. She is REALLY good with little kids, getting them to smile and look at the camera. Dayna is great at directing everyone at the photoshoot and will take care of all details so all you need to is show up. However, if there is anything you want in particular, she is great at making it happen. For our family shots, she worked in a specially requested outdoor shot in Nichols Arcade to support my sister's family.

Biggest regret of my wedding day? Hiring Mishelle. She's SUPER responsive when you're trying to…read morehire her but after you've signed your contract, it's radio silence. She's great at making you feel like you are sooo lucky to have her as a photographer. She charges $5700 for an engagement photo shoot, 8 hours of photography on day of with 2 shooters (herself and a friend). We were traveling from out of town for the engagement photos. It took multiple emails (like 5) to get her to respond to a date that could work for us so that we could buy our flights. Our engagement photos weren't great. She tends to shoot from below, which wasn't the best angle for my husband or me. There's very little direction from her (I.e. put your hand on his chest). She does do a good job of feeling like the photos she's taking are fabulous during the shoot. On the day of, she likes to claim that she "takes charge" which I thought I'd like. She's not lying, she takes charge but doesn't pay attention to the schedule. She made me 30 min late to my own wedding bc she was taking pics and not paying attention to the time. My family actually said they thought I was getting cold feet. I kept giving her the benefit of the doubt but we finally got our photos over 3 months after the wedding. I cried when I got them, and not for a good reason. The photos are terrible. They're unedited.....there's trash in the background of my bridal portraits that she chose to not edit out. She put a filter on all of them but it just washes us out. I do not have a single one of my mom and me that's in focus. She took a million of my husband and me but I can't find one that I like. It is truly disappointing. I don't have a single photo from cocktail hour, no photos of our signature cocktail signs, no photos of our beverage napkins. It's like she was just shooting random things that aren't in focus. To top it off, multiple people came up to me and asked who my photographer was bc she was so crabby during the day. I will be asking her to edit our photos...tbd. I would never recommend Mishelle.

I was thinking our day was just a one off bad day for her but it seems like that's not the case. I don't think it's always been this way with Mishelle but I believe the quality of service/work has gone downhill and it should be noted for the prices being paid. Non responsive up until wedding day and multiple ignored messages. When we did talk I could barely get a word in or share our vision. Showing up late/distracted on wedding day. Didn't get many of the family portraits that were outlined, odd angles/lighting/bad editing/blurriness in photos that doesn't seem normal for a 15+ year experience photographer. While I will say there are some good photos, overall we were disappointed in our experience and the delivered work for the amount paid. There are many many anecdotes I could share that reflect our experience but overall, the day and 'edited' images reflected a lack of passion, care, or attention to detail. I try to give the benefit of the doubt but for a once in a lifetime event, the photographer experience is very important and unfortunately Mishelle missed the mark.
