you're in love, you're engaged, and you're excited to start the next chapter of your lives together. your wedding day will be one of the best days of your life and i'm here to help everything go smoothly while capturing stunning imagery of you as a couple, as well as your loved ones, for you to cherish forever.
i have over a decade of experience and over 200 weddings under my belt, and i would love to help you make your wedding day dreams come true. my clients often refer to me as a pro photographer and wedding planner all rolled into one, so you're really getting the package deal when you decide to share your day with me. I want you to be relaxed, stress-free and to have fun!
My full-day wedding packages include a complimentary engagement session. This is a great opportunity for us to get to know one another and break the ice so that there are no nerves or awkwardness on the big day. It'll be fun, I promise!
You can choose any location you'd like in Hamilton or surrounding area, or I'd be happy to offer some suggestions of my favourite local spots.
I also love dogs, so if you have a furry family member that you would like to include I would be delighted!
Most of my clients opt for full-day coverage which would start with the getting ready pictures and go all the way through and including some dancing at the reception. Having said that, every wedding day is a bit different, and I'm happy to discuss your specific wants and needs and create a coverage plan that is designed just for you. Your final collection will have a nice mixture of posed formals, fun candids and stylized detail shots to beautifully tell the story of your day.
The first step will be scheduling an in-person wedding consultation at my home studio in Hamilton. At this appointment we can get to know each other a bit, chat about your big day and your thoughts on photography.
I have lots of artwork and product samples to show you so you can start to envision and get excited about your own wedding collection. We can discuss the ideas and plans you have for your special day, as well as briefly discuss a rough timeline to see what package might be the best fit for you.
There is absolutely no obligation to book on the spot, I'm just here to introduce myself and answer your questions.
Aside from capturing the most beautiful images of your big day, my next most important goal is for you to really enjoy the day while we're doing it. With my over decade of experience I have developed a seamless timeline and flow for your wedding day that will minimize stress and allow you to relax and really take in everything that is happening.
I will work with you to coordinate all of the key players and details so that nothing is missed or forgotten. I'm always available throughout your planning process to discuss ideas and help to navigate potential obstacles. I truly offer a full-service experience.

I typically book my wedding clients 12-18 months in advance, but as soon as you have your venue booked and your date secured, you're ready to lock down your photographer. June through October are traditionally the busiest months for weddings in Ontario so those dates tend to book up faster than others.
I will work with you in great detail to create a timeline that is both realistic and relaxed so that you can enjoy every minute of the day without feeling rushed to quickly move onto the next thing. This is just a rough guideline, but it should give you a good idea of how much time should be allocated for each section of the day that you're planning to have photographed. This timeline is based on my most popular packages of 10 or 12 hours.
Book your big day with the best Hamilton wedding photographer! When you choose Moments by Melissa Miller to capture your important memories, you don't need to worry about a thing. From the initial consultation all the way through to having your premium portrait products displayed in your home, every detail is covered with care.

If you are still on the search for a venue that's totally alright, I'm always happy to meet with you and get the ball rolling. I may even have some helpful insight to any venues that have made it onto your short list. We can then coordinate with the venue you choose to find a date that works for everyone.

ME! (Melissa). I do not subcontract my weddings out, nor are there multiple lead photographers on staff. I am who you will meet with, and I will be there on your wedding day. Your second shooter will be chosen from my selective group of long-standing colleagues who are all absolutely fantastic!

Processing time varies depending on what season you're getting married in and can be anywhere from 4 weeks to 12 weeks. You will however have access to a large sneak peek on my blog the week immediately following the wedding. It should tide you and your loved ones over while you are waiting for your full collection to be processed.
