Such a fantastic photo shoot with Merieta! She was very accommodating, professional, and very generous with her time. I love my final photos and will be booking her again for a family photo shoot this spring. She exceeded all my expectations and I’m very happy I worked with her. I’m

I sincerely enjoyed my experience with Merieta B. Photography! She made me feel super comfortable (even when my glasses kept fogging up lol) and took some amazing photos, which she turned around quickly. I will definitely be looking for more excuses to take professional photos with her.

I am so glad I came across Merieta B. Photography to photograph my family for my mother’s 60th birthday. It was such a familiar experience, yet an appropriate level of professionalism was maintained. It is like they were family members that wanted to capture all of the best moments. They were very patient with my two young children, 3 and 4. The photos are great, turn around time was quick as promised and my mother was so happy to have these memories captured so beautifully. Thank you so much for being amazing!

Merieta was the utmost professional from the start. I sent out several requests for photographers using Thumbtack and her response was almost immediate. We had a great first chat via Thumbtack and she was excited as I was to be doing the photo shoot. We communicated with Merieta more than a few times over the course of 2 weeks before the shoot and she listened to what we had to say and was accommodating to all. She delivered on everything she promised and the shoot went very well and was very fun because Merieta brought energy and excitement to the shoot. She captured what we were looking for and was professional from beginning to end. I would not miss the chance to work with Merieta if you can because she will listen and make it all about you and make you feel as comfortable as possible…. Reach out to Merieta and see what I’m talking about📸
