Melinda is absolutely amazing. She’s so kind and funny. It made getting professionally photographed very comfortable. My now husband and I are not pros by any stretch of the imagination lmao, but she made us look like we were. I’m so incredibly thankful for her guidance and patience. Especially with the ups and downs of 2020, I couldn’t have asked for a better human to be the one to photograph our special day. Thank Melinda for everything. I’m so glad I found you and was able to work with you! :)

Melinda is so awesome! From the beginning, she was super easy to work with- friendly and flexible. She was reliable and on time when we had calls or meetings. My husband and I are both pretty awkward and hate getting our pictures taken, but Melinda put us at ease totally. She vibed with us right off the bat and joined in our silliness. And most importantly, she so clearly captured the fun and happiness of our wedding day in the photographs. I cannot recommend Melinda highly enough.

I can not express enough how much we loved Melinda & her second shooter that day (Gennevive). Pre-wedding Melinda was an instant delight to communicate with. We had multiple phone calls where she answered every question and offered so much expertise and information I would never have thought of on my own. She was so friendly, warm and full of personality. The wedding day itself was nothing short of an absolute dream & Melinda's photography played a big part in this. She was on time, constantly on the move taking photos & so so helpful. She stuck around longer than I would have expected her to capture our "golden hour photos "(which in June in Seattle is pretty dang late..). My entire wedding party + family/friends made endless positive comments on Melinda & Gennevive's approach, professionalism & awesome personalities. They were just the ABSOLUTE freaking best to work with. I would choose her services over & over again. Not to mention, after the wedding I had a friend go... Read more through a traumatic event and Melinda was so quick to reach out and want to support. She really cares - and it's like you're her friend by the end of your day. Thank you so much Melinda !!!!!!!!! Can't wait to see our final products because I know they will be ridiculously perfect.

Melinda is an absolute joy to work with. From the moment I reached out she was responsive and asked the right questions in order to capture my special day exactly as I had hoped! She is down to earth and easy going which allowed us to truly enjoy a stress free day. Throughout the evening she touched based to ensure she was getting everything we had hoped, which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend Melinda for your photography needs!

Melinda came as a recommendation from a friend and she was truly the best! She was super flexible in planning around an unconventional wedding schedule, super fun and easy to be around, and she delivered amazing photos - it was hard to choose our favorites. Highly recommend!

I have known Melinda personally for many moons and have seen her beautiful work online, which is how I came about to have her photograph my wedding. All the best things about Melinda personally shine in her professional demeanor as well. She is warm, down to earth, joyful, and full of compassion. Having her for our wedding day was so special because it was like having another family member close by the whole time. Even if I didn’t know her previously I would make the same comment. She is helpful, lights up the room with her smile, creates excitement and calm at just the right time, and her bubbly attitude is irresistible and contagious. This was my husbands first time meeting her and at the wedding, as we were walking down the beach hand in hand he told me how grateful he was that she was there because she made him and everyone else feel so comfortable. Melinda has this beautiful talent for capturing a moment in time but she is also part of creating it. Anyone can snap a photo but no... Read moret everyone can have the charm and grace Melinda does to create space for the perfect moment to happen. In such an intimate setting someone else’s energy matters. Melinda is intuitive to that and can ease any jitters, get the shy to open up, and be the first to spark a silly moment. On your wedding day a lot of time is spent with the photographer, I’m so glad she will forever be attached to the memories we cherish at our wedding. As if the photos didn’t already speak for themselves, learning who Melinda is as the photographer will make it impossible to choose anyone else! Thank you Melinda Burgess Photography for giving us the perfect wedding experience!

Melinda was professional, fun to be around, and made our family and guests super comfortable. On top of that photos are gorgeous. Hire her!

Melinda was an absolute joy to work and we were so pleased with how all the photos turned out! We booked her for both our engagement and wedding photos. She did an amazing job of capturing everything from the little details that we never would have thought we wanted in photos - to the emotion and love that was in the air! She also did a great job of creating a comfortable environment during our engagement session and definitely has a creative eye!
