“Photography is my passion. It is intuitive to me. When I'm working, I see the beauty and emotion of people's shared connections, and capturing those moments on film comes naturally to me. Being a part of creating family histories for others brings me back to memories of my own family. I know how important it is to have that history. That’s why taking beautiful photographs of profound moments in people’s lives really matters.” - Melanie Nashan

 

Melanie earned her MFA in photography from Vermont College. Her work has appeared in Martha Stewart , Elegant Bride, Bride’s Magazine, PDN, and Forbes, among other publications and books.

I know that a wedding is a story of emotions; passion, love, joy, reverence and grace. I use these emotions as a palette for my photography. By effectively capturing the mood and the setting in my pictures, I am able to provide a backdrop to these emotions that helps complete the story.

 

I enjoy the playfulness and spontaneity of weddings, often capturing moments that would have otherwise gone unnoticed as well as details that might have been forgotten. My instincts and technical knowledge combine to create results that are both artful and timeless.

While I was growing up, I was constantly around photography because of my mother. I started going with my mom to weddings to help take pictures when I was seven years old, and by the time I was ten, I was being depended on for good photos. I realized that photography was something I loved and wanted to do as a profession. Since then I have accompanied my mom on many weddings as a second shooter, and have developed an eye for little details and candid moments.

 

Keegan is a Junior Associate and is available as a second shooter. Rates available upon request. All proceeds go to her college savings account.

Holly and I approach each wedding as a team. Because we work together, we are able to capture important moments that may happen simultaneously, and also offer two unique perspectives of your wedding day. We like to work with the bride and groom to transfer their vision into beautiful, emotional and meaningful photographs.

 

By shooting in a photojournalistic style, we aspire to remain as unobtrusive as possible while still capturing those once-in-a-lifetime candid expressions, emotions and joyous moments.

While photographing weddings, Janie and I work together in order to capture many different perspectives. We are able to be two places at one time, which ensures that all aspects of your wedding are thoroughly documented.

 

As children, Janie and I remember our grandparents’ wedding portraits resting on their nightstands. We listened to our grandmothers retell their love stories that lasted 50 and 75 years respectively.

 

Whenever someone chooses us to photograph their wedding, we feel honored to play a part in telling their love story. At your wedding, we blend in with your guests and capture portraits, as well as intimate candid glances between you and the people you love. We create images that will always remind you of your wedding day, and the moments you shared with your family and friends.

So many of life’s most precious moments are fleeting and it has long been my passion to capture these in photographs. I carry this passion over to weddings where it is a joy to photograph people living life and celebrating love. My goal is to help a couple remember not only the important moments but also the intimate emotions and beautiful details unique to their wedding day. It is truly a privilege to be a part of such a meaningful and momentous occasion as a wedding. Because of this I make every effort to blend in and document the day in the most beautiful way possible.
