Melvin was responsive and professional. He was easy to communicate with, was early to our location, and did a wonderful job not making anyone feel rushed and as comfortable as one can be. The photos came out beautiful and were delivered earlier than the contracted time frame. I would definitely book with him again and would definitely recommend booking him for any sort of special event you may have coming up!

Melvin was very responsive to our inquiry and amenable to our preferred timeline. He also suggested a great location for the shoot and was very personable. He got us our photos in less time quoted and was a pleasure to work with.

Had the best college graduation shoot with Melvin. He has a eye for detail, looked up poses ahead of time for me, and made sure to fix any hair or clothing issues before taking a picture. I would recommend him to any and everybody and plan to use him again for future projects.
