The Wedding Experience
You’re getting married!
What better way to celebrate this unforgettable season of life than with photos you and your family will treasure for a lifetime.
I’m deeply committed to understanding your style, vision, priorities, and family dynamics in order to best photograph your wedding day.
All wedding packages include: at least two planning consultations, high-resolution images delivered via an online gallery, and printing rights.
“When I look at our photos, I see us having the time of our lives. Megan did such an amazing job, and the photos were everything I thought they would be. I can’t thank her enough for being such a big part of our day.”
-Taylor, 2021 BRIDE
Destination & Domestic
Weddings
Your wedding day is a big moment in your love story, and how you choose to celebrate it is unique to you. With this approach, I customize my wedding experiences to best serve what you need. Most couples invest an average of $4,500 in their wedding photography package.
Let’s Just Get Away
Elopements
Elopements and intimate weddings are an amazing option for any couple wanting to forgo tradition and get married exactly how they want. While it means less people, it by no means should be celebrated any less! Because of how unique these wedding days are, I create customized elopement packages to best fit the scope of the day.
A LOOK INSIDE
My Process
Here's an overview of what you can expect working with me. I’m known for my relational approach that brings a storytelling aspect to your wedding day — thoughtful details, fleeting moments most other people miss, bringing your personality to life on camera. Your story is unlike anyone else’s, and I am truly excited to know you!

Kind Words
"The photos are unbelievable.
I’ve been constantly scrolling through the gallery, and Megan couldn’t have done a better job. I’m reliving our wedding day and crying happy tears! What she does with photography is amazing.”
— Jasmine, 2020 BRIDE
"I was so happy when we got our engagement pictures back, and I knew that our wedding photos would be even better. Megan did not disappoint!!
We both loved that she made us feel natural and not forced to pose awkwardly. It was all so relaxed and she never made us feel rushed. She was so involved, but I never felt like she was intruding.”

Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance do I need to book?
My clients typically book with me 8 to 12 months in advance; however, I have on occasion booked weddings just a few months prior. I only schedule 2 weddings per month, so I highly recommend you contact me about your date sooner than later.
Do you travel outside Missouri? Are there travel fees?
I often travel outside Missouri. I’ll build a flat travel fee into your wedding package to account for travel time and expenses. This means one package price including everything you need and no hidden or surprise fees.
Are engagement sessions included in photography packages?
My smallest wedding package, the Keep It Simple package, does not include an engagement session. All other packages include this service.
I have a big family. Will you be able to get good family photos?
Out of all the photo planning we’ll do together, family photos is where we’ll give a lot of focus. It’s rare that you have your whole family together, and I will ensure we make the most of it! I’ll guide you through this, so we have a set shot list before the wedding day, and we don’t miss anything.
