My name is Meghan, and I'm a Minneapolis-based photographer available for proposals, family and engagement portraits, weddings, parties, events, and more. Cameras are amazing for their ability to capture beautiful, fleeting moments. I want your images to illustrate not just a pretty scene, but also a meaningful emotion that encapsulates - and prolongs - your memory of that time. I specialize in blending into the background so my subjects can be their most natural selves while I work to capture the intimate moments between the people I photograph. Ultimately, it is my privilege to deliver these moments to you in images that express the meaning of the special day you've welcomed me into.
She is engaging, fun, easy to work with and she made everyone feel incredibly comfortable. We enjoyed every part of being photographed and the images she captured are fantastic. We absolutely love our family photos. Thank you Meghan, and all the best!
Meghan is wonderful!
Her photographs from my wedding and reception are very professional and beautiful. I have never met a photographer as accommodating and flexible as her. She’s very reasonably priced and stayed longer than I had expected just so she could capture every moment. While going through photos, I noticed how she captured the sunshine in all my guests. I hardly noticed her and was so surprised looking at a majority of the photos because I didn’t notice her even taking them. She captured the entire event and I’m thankful to have professional photos of all who came since it rarely happens that you are at an event with all your friends, family, colleagues, and special people at one place at the same time. She really did amazing at capturing the positive energy in everyone and the event. I plan to hire her again and highly recommend you do as well. She’s easy to contact and responds quickly. She’s punctual, personable, fun, friendly and professional. I also received my wedding photos back in about 1 week from her. Thank you Meghan
Meghan was absolutely wonderful. She accommodated our short notice request and even though I was still behind schedule, she took that opportunity to source perfect photo locations in our home, maximizing our time. She included our dog and got great candid shots as well.
I was booked to perform at the Chicago Magic Lounge. I booked Meghan at the last minute to capture photos from one of my performances.
Meghan was super easy to work with, super responsive with communication, and was incredibly attentive to my long list of specific photography instructions to grab specific shots during the life show.
I was hoping that I'd walk away with one or two fantastic shots. I received way more than that. Her photography is high quality, and my highest compliment is that I will plan to hire her again when I next return to Chicago.
Meghan, thank you so much for wonderfully capturing this special evening.
Meghan took photos at our corporate event. She really just brought an amazing energy and did all we asked which was so greatly appreciate. We are so thankful!
Meghan is such a pro! She scouted the location ahead of time for our family holiday card photos. As it was in November, it was really cold and she was prepared and ready to go. She had great recommendations and was speedy to get the final images to us. I would work with her again in a heartbeat
She arrives early for setup, she is very friendly and approachable. Megan did such a great job capturing all the right moments plus more! She was good at working with people during the group photos and knew exactly how to set everyone up. My favorite is that she had a lot of creative ideas for our fun photos near the waterfall with our best man and maid of honor. I will recommend her to anyone planning their wedding.
The photos that Meghan took was not only looking good but were capturing natural moments that were unexpected but are cute and lovely. Also how she acted was not only professional but nice and I am sure all our guests liked her.
Price Range: $300-$1200
With my services, you can expect strong attention to detail, open and active communication to ensure your needs and wants are met, and a high level of quality in each of your images. If you need to plan a proposal to be photographed, I will plan the surprise with you down to the exact spot you should stand and where your partner should angle themselves (so I can get the best shots!). If you have a small family wedding, I'll be conscious of how I position myself so as to best capture the moments of the day while intruding as little as possible on the intimacy of the event. If you'd like to take a headshot or family portraits, I'll help you feel and look your best so you can have pictures that you'll love to look at.
My priority is capturing the best, most meaningful moments and expressions from your special day or portrait session. And I'll work with you to make that easy, comfortable, and fun!
