A captivating journey with MLP!

We recently had the immense pleasure of working with the talented duo, Mandy and Sam, from Mermaid Lake Photography for our wedding, and we cannot express enough how thrilled we are with the entire experience. Mandy, the owner of Mermaid Lake Photography, has been our trusted photographer since the beginning of our relationship, capturing countless precious moments and milestones. It was only natural that we wanted to continue this remarkable journey with her, and we were overjoyed to have Sam join us on our special day.

From the moment we met Mandy, her passion for photography and her genuine care for her clients shone through. Her attention to detail, artistic vision, and ability to capture the essence of each moment are truly remarkable. Mandy's professionalism, combined with her warm and friendly personality, instantly put us at ease. She has an uncanny ability to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, allowing your true emotions to shine through effortlessly.

Having Sam as part of our wedding photography team was an absolute delight. He seamlessly integrated himself into the bond and connection we had already established with Mandy. Sam's talent behind the lens is undeniable, and his enthusiasm and dedication to his craft are truly inspiring. He effortlessly captured the most candid and heartfelt moments throughout our wedding day, ensuring that each shot was as breathtaking as the last.

Together, Mandy and Sam form an exceptional team. Their collaboration and harmonious working dynamic were evident throughout the entire process. They complemented each other's strengths and brought a unique perspective to every shot, resulting in a collection of photographs that surpassed our wildest expectations.

The entire experience with Mermaid Lake Photography was nothing short of extraordinary. Mandy's meticulous planning, attention to detail, and ability to capture the essence of our love story were truly remarkable. From the initial consultation to the final delivery of our images, every step was handled with the utmost professionalism and care.

We are eternally grateful to Mandy and Sam for their outstanding work, and we wholeheartedly recommend Mermaid Lake Photography to anyone in search of photographers who will not only deliver exceptional results but also go above and beyond to create an unforgettable experience. Mandy's unwavering dedication and Sam's seamless integration into our story have left us with a treasure trove of memories that we will cherish for a lifetime.

Thank you, Mandy and Sam, for capturing our love in the most breathtaking way possible. You are true artists, and we are honored to have had you as part of our special day.

Absolutely amazing, one of the best choices we made was going with her and her team.

Mandy did our engagement pictures, rehearsal and wedding day pictures. My husband and I don't really take pictures so we are pretty awkward. She not only made us feel comfortable, but she could tell when I was kind of going through the motions of smiling because she knew I was not used to taking pictures. I quite literally can not recommend her enough. She will be the photographer we use for everything to come!! My whole family and I were and still are absolutely blown away with the way she captured the day(s) and how you could feel the amazing moments in them. Not only is she a kind person, she is really easy to talk to, very communicative, gives amazing suggestions yet isn't pushy, and is incredibly talented with her craft. I was never concerned or worried while working with her about the end result. She made me feel beautiful in all the pictures. You won't regret having her as your photographer! Thank you Mandy for everything. We are forever grateful. ❤️
