    Versatile, professional, highly recommend

    We go back to our wedding photos again and again and every time some new detail that Kim and Noah captured stands out to us! They went above and beyond with our specific requests; they beautifully captured our orchard venue from the smallest details like apple-laden trees to portraits of people we love to the gorgeous Mt. Hood off in the distance. Our families were delighted with the larger group photos as well and they can be picky! This team is versatile and really knows their stuff. Noah did a fantastic job on our professional wedding video as well! Choose this team, it is clear that they love what they do and they made us feel at ease as an otherwise camera-shy couple. We highly recommend DavidAnn.

    DavidAnn's reply:

    So two things- the fact that you said you "you find a new detail that stands out each time you go back to your photos", and that "your families loved the pictures as well!!!" Omg, that just makes our day!!! Your day was so beautiful from the gorgeous orchard, to the details, your super fun bridal party... we had such a blast!!

    Stunning photos that represent us as a couple!

    I cannot recommend Mela-Photo strongly enough!!! My partner Matt and I experienced a couples photoshoot with Kim and her husband Noah in July.
    Kim chose an absolutely STUNNING outdoor location for our shoot. She had specifically chosen the location with us in mind; it wasn't a "go-to" for her. (Talk about making us feel special!) We felt very relaxed during the session, as if we were just hanging out with friends. Kim was great at directing our movements. It was clear she saw the images in her head and did whatever she could to bring them to life.
    Not only was the photoshoot itself fun and easy, the edited photos we received afterward blew us away! The lighting and tone of the photos was BEYOND what we expected. She captured both the epic, expansive backdrop and the gentle, beautiful details. I am still impressed every time I look at them. I wasted no time in getting prints made to proudly display in our home.
    Kim is a masterful artist and a kind soul. You will have no regrets in booking her for your photos - only amazing images that you will cherish for life.

    DavidAnn's reply:

    Dear Heather & Matt:
    We are so blown away for this meaningful experience that we could share with you. Your experience with us, the feelings and emotions are truly represented in these photos and it compels us further to pursue the heart of our couples. This adventure session was so fun, fulfilling to our creative souls and to be able to celebrate your relationship by telling your love story through photos is why we do what we do!

    Absolutely wonderful!

    I absolutely love Kim and Noah. They take special care and pride with each of their couples. They take time to learn their story and get to know them more. They have excellent people skills and maintain professionalism. They have a great eye for detail and lighting. I love that they enjoy adventure and like to have fun in their sessions. We had an amazing time in our engagement shoot. And I am soo looking forward to having them be a part of our wedding.

    DavidAnn's reply:

    Hey Kindra,
    This is the sweetest thing to say about us! We had so much fun exploring Yosemite and taking engagement photos there! We cannot wait to come out to Vegas and celebrate your big day!!!

    Exceptional

    Kim is PHENOMENAL! If you have a chance to hire her, do so without hesitation. I rarely write reviews, but if I do it’s because it’s that great. She was easy to work with, had different cues that brought out our natural selves. My fiancé and I were so comfortable in front of her cameras the whole time. She went over and beyond to capture the right angles, that resulted in some unreal photos. She delivered what was promised and then some in record time. We love our photos, and so has everyone that has seen them. They will be featured in our save the date, website, wedding, and new home :)
    Thank you so much, Kim.

    Wonderful couple photographers(Yes, Kim and Noah is a lovely couple)!

    It was an unparalleled experience! Kim was warm and humorous. She always makes people feel relaxed and gives great advice. This undoubtedly weakens the tension of "I'm taking pictures." Noah is Kim's working partner, and they are also married for many years. My husband and I are both shy people. During the shooting, Kim and Noah will actually show us how to pose and look better. This is so convenient! I love couple photographers so much. What touched me the most was that Kim and Noah came to take pictures of us early in the morning and stayed with us until dark. I believe that they must be exhausted, but they still show a professional and friendly attitude. I love them so much!

    Amazing photographers make for an amazing day!

    We cannot say enough good things about Kim and Noah. I fell in love with their photography style, but my husband was comforted with our initial phone conversation with them. When we decided to hire them, Kim seemed more excited than we were! This is a couple you immediately feel at ease with and want to be friends with, something we valued in the photographers that are going to capture such an intimate time. The final photographs were authentic and beautiful and evoke such strong happy memories from our wedding day. Thank you Kim and Noah! We can't wait to do another shoot with you one day!

    They Were the Best!!

    Our experience with Kim and Noah was so amazing! From the first conversation they were so excited and enthusiastic about our day! Once we officially booked, they were so helpful in sending us questionnaires of sample timelines to look over with our coordinator, lists of items to bring or shots, and even asking all of the shots we would throughout the day in case we had any special requests, which I really appreciated! On the day of the wedding we had several changes in locations for things and being behind schedule and they were so graceful and patient with all of the changes and still gave so much time to getting the shots we wanted, even helping us pick our first look location! Both of them have such a calming presence in the midst of an usually hectic day, I loved having them around and admired the intentionality they brought to our photos!! I would totally recommend them for any wedding!

    Davidann is simply the very best

    We truly could not have asked for a better photographer. Kim is extraordinarily generous, carries a peaceful presence (which you want during such a high energy, sometimes chaotic time), and does absolutely STUNNING work. Kim makes you feel comfortable right away and brings such JOY as she cultivates space for you and your partner to be captured on film during some of your most precious, intimate, joyful moments. The engagement session with her was phenomenal. She was creative, made us feel so comfortable, and had a way of directing us while also drawing out who we truly are. She is SO talented. Having Kim capture the day of our wedding was the most special. She was supportive, at ease, and captured the most precious moments. When we received our wedding album I think I looked at the photos for a few hours straight haha. I was in awe of her work and so grateful for her eye for the big moments and also the small details. Advice for couples: you DEFINITELY want to go with DavidAnn. Kim and Noah feel like long time friends upon your first meeting and their presence is warm and embracing. They make you feel instantly loved, comfortable, and really special. They draw out the best and beauty of you and your partnership, and then capture it for you to savor and enjoy forever. 10 out of 10, 5 stars for this team.

    Hire kim and noah

    Noah and Kim were so much fun and were so thankful for the images they captured for us. Right from the start they were easy to work with - we ended up having to change our date and location and they were able to be flexible and work around our busy schedules. Before our shoot Kim helped me with suggestions on what to wear / bring and just overall put me at ease with every conversation. I was nervous that my non photo loving fiance would be uncomfortable but fast forward to our engagement shoot day and we couldn't have been happier with this duo. Noah and Kim right away feel like long time friends. The conversation was easy and we never felt awkward or uncomfortable which is so important because now that we have our gallery back you can see we are relaxed and at ease. We were so thankful to be able to bring our dog along and loved how Kim and Noah interacted with our pup but also that they gave us the perfect mix of photos of just the two of us and then with our dog included. We were able to go to multiple locations and Kim kept things moving along perfectly so we were never bored or tired holding the same pose / location / position. Our images are beautiful and we will cherish them forever. We can't wait to work with them again on our wedding day. If you are looking for a relaxed, comfortable, non-stuffy/pretentious couple who will rock your day, you've found your dream team. Thank you so much Kim and Noah!

    DavidAnn's reply:

    OMG guys!!!!! I can't believe this...
    We are beyond words and joy, just knowing that you and Alex felt so loved and had fun during our session, makes us so grateful to be doing the work we do with our couples! So happy to know that you loved all of your photos and that your experience with us felt comfortable and easy! We can't wait to celebrate your wedding soon! (:

    Book this photographer!

    Kim is such a kind, creative, talented photographer. I totally trusted her as she made me feel so comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera. She’s up for anything and has a great attitude and spirit! You’ll be in great hands with her!

    DavidAnn's reply:

    Aww.. thank you, Elise for those kind words.. it was such a pleasure photographing you and I had so much fun bringing your vision to life!!!

    obsessed with my engagement photos

    From the first interaction Kim was so responsive and helpful. She helped create a package in my budget, talked me through outfits, and was flexible about locations when we were due to have a snow storm. It was like texting a friend.
    Day of, her and Noah were so nice (and the pleasant surprise of a second shooter was amazing) and we felt very comfortable. We were unsure how we were going to pose and be cute, but she gave us great direction and made it so easy. My fiancé, who was pretty indifferent about photos, even said it was fun and he was glad we did it. She got our edited photos back to us even earlier than she said she would, and they were beyond wonderful. She braved the cold and got all the snowy pictures I dreamed of. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

    DavidAnn's reply:

    omg-omg, Lindsay- reading this just made my heart skipped a beat...I'm can't tell you how grateful I feel to know that you absolutely loved your photos and the part where you said it was like texting a friend (the feeling was mutual!) I'm so glad Pat enjoyed himself too, I could tell during our session and while I was editing them- you guys are so perfect and wish you so much happiness!!!

    Hiring Mela Photo was the best choice!

    I have gotten the chance to work with Kim on numerous events recently, and every time I am blown away. Her attention to detail in her photos in unmatched. She is incredibly professional and truly does put her clients first. I have loved working with her so much that we hired her for our personal family photos as well, and those are truly photos that have a timeless style and will be treasured always.

    Beautiful Wedding Photography

    I worked with Kim on a wedding bridal shoot recently. She was extremely professional and flexible while working with different vendors. The photos she provided were stunning! I'm so happy to have had a chance to work with her and can't wait to refer her to future couples for their wedding.

    Calm, collected, talented and kind

    Kim and Noah were so easy to communicate and plan with. Their experience helped provide insight into my wedding timeline that was invaluable. It may sound silly but I was feeling a lot of weird pressure to impress our photographers (everything always looks so perfect on social media so how could I possibly accomplish perfection on one of the most hectic days of my life?!). Kim and Noah were so personable and understanding that anxiety melted away and my husband and I had what felt more like a fun hang out session with two really cool people who happened to be taking our pictures. I was really lucky to find Mela Photo kind of last minute and I am so, so thankful they had our day available. All of our friends and family are absolutely in love with our photos (as are we OF COURSE). My best friend said our photos are the best wedding photos she's seen and I am inclined to agree. Thank you Kim and Noah from Reid and Savanah.

    DavidAnn's reply:

    Savanah and Reid,
    We are soooo fortunate to have been part of your day because we honestly felt like we were at a friends wedding! We loved the soul, the heart, and every little pretty detail that went into the making of this day!!

    Thank you Kim for helping this camera-shy couple by working magic with your lens! While posing for pics usually leave me all conscious and acutely aware of my limbs (!), you went out of your way to make the session into a fun, effortless one. Thank you for giving us those gorgeous, creative images against the backdrop of Kerala’s backwaters. We love you and your brilliant work!

    Great choice to capture our wedding

    Kim and Noah were a delight to have at our wedding. We typically don’t like being in the spotlight, but they made us feel so comfortable and brought out the best in us. They captured every moment that we cared about beautifully. I never expected to love my wedding photos as much as I do. Kim and Noah are a top notch team and choosing them to capture your day would be a great choice.

    Kim did our engagement photoshoot and to say that her work is of excellent quality is an understatement. Her pictures speak volumes and tell a story in itself. She made our photoshoot fun which put us, camera-shy people at ease. She catches the vision of the couple and what they want their photos to say and translates that into images that speak volumes. She does this with tact that one does not feel the pressure of standing before a camera and posing. My fiance and I did not think we would have fun doing a photoshoot but she made our shoot one that would capture memories that we still talk and laugh about.

    DavidAnn's reply:

    Andrea, I'm so honored to have taken yours and Paul's photos. Your thoughts reflecting on your time with me is a huge testament of why I do what I do. I'm so happy that you felt comfortable and feel that your photos are a true reflection of your relationship! (:

    After struggling to find an affordable photographer with a phenomenal portfolio, I came across Kim with MELA Photo. After speaking with her about options and viewing her past work, I knew she would be perfect. Throughout the planning process she was responsive and helpful and thorough. When she arrived at our venue the day of our wedding she was very professional and even brought an apprentice shooter with her (extra photos!!!). She stuck with everything we wanted and followed the timeline great. We just got our photos back and I am blown away and crying tears of joy! There is no reason not to pick this very talented lady to capture those very important moments of your life :) THANK YOU KIM!!

    Kim shot my wedding, to put it simply, we loved working with her. She made the whole day so easy and fun!! She made sure all our photo needs were taken care of, she was patient, super helpful (by holding my dress, keeping track of a lot of logistics) and she made it super fun for our bridal party and family.

    Kim is a wonder! I felt like a friend was taking my photos, and she was so open to any ideas Jon and I had. She and her husband took pictures for our wedding and I was absolutely in love with the result! They are so elegant and beautiful, but still reveal exactly who my husband and I are as a couple.

    Well captured moments of a new chapter

    I had previously had the pleasure of having Kim as a co-worker so I knew we would work together well. She made everyone feel relaxed and scouted out the perfect locations. The pictures turned out beautifully. Couldn't have asked for a better experience!

    Kim was a guest at our wedding. As a kind gesture, she offered to click us on our wedding day and asked us to give her a 30 minute slot. We had already hired a photographing team and it was hard to give her that time as it was an extremely busy day for us. We could hardly give her 15 minutes to click us and that too when the daylight had pretty much faded. In that short period and with insufficient daylight, she clicked some of the most amazing pictures that look so intimate and real. She has such a warm spirit and knows how to make one feel comfortable in front of the camera.
