Having worked with Melissa for over five years in personal photography sessions for my family, there was no doubt in my mind who to call when it came time to select a photographer for a high profile branding project at my workplace.
As the Director of Marketing & Strategic Communications for Saint John's High School, I sought to partner with a photographer to capture a library of photographs needed to enhance print and digital marketing pieces used to represent the school to potential donors.
To execute the project effectively, I knew the photographs had to tell the story and bring to life the students, families, alumni, and spaces we hoped to portray. The final library of photos was better than we could have imagined - authentic, vibrant, and perfectly enhanced to showcase the beautiful depth of each photograph's subject. Her work for us extended across the full spectrum of spaces - utilizing both indoor and outdoor spaces, a variety of subjects, and even traveling to New York City to capture two subjects closer to their home.
But, as we all know, partnerships are not only about the final deliverables. Melissa is kind, charismatic, creative, and warm. Her genuine nature strikes the perfect balance of friendly and professional, leaving subjects comfortable and confident in her presence - a terrific, arguably critical, skill to have as a photographer.
As a business partner, she's timely, communicative, flexible, open minded and thorough in her work from start to finish. We could not have been more impressed with the overall experience in utilizing Melissa for our branding session and would highly recommend her to any business or organization looking to best capture their story."
