I cannot say enough about how great of a photographer MMC is! Not only was she prompt and incredibly helpful, but went the extra mile without hesitation. Even as nervous as I was trying to set everything up to get hidden photos of me proposing to my Fiance, she understood everything I needed and excelled! I cannot recommend her enough! The photos are amazing and her ability to go beyond expectation is truly amazing.

What can i say, Meredith is awesome. She has a brilliant eye and I look forward to working with her again in the future. Hands down one of the top photographers in Los Angeles.

Each year, Meredith shoots our family Christmas card photos that always involve kids, dogs and various aged adults in creative indoor and/or outdoor evergreen tree scenes. From family around the candle lit dining table to flanking the garland decorated staircase, to fireplace and Christmas tree decorating shots, Meredith gives her creative eye free reign to portray our family traditions. Her professional manner allows us to be ourselves as she captures our love for each other. I would highly recommend Meredith for all your event and personal photography needs!
