Courthouse Weddings Make Getting
Real talk, planning a wedding can get overwhelming QUICK!
Too many decisions to make, when the only decision you need to make is to say "I DO".
San Diego County courthouse weddings have made getting married fun and easy! The only other decision you need to make is which of their beautiful locations you wish to book your ceremony at!
My top 3:
San Diego | Santee | San Marcos
Let's turn your civil wedding into an adventure! The fun doesn't stop after your ceremony. We can take your formal portraits at any beach, park, neighborhood your hearts desire! Make your couple portraits about YOU and what represents you both as a couple!
SAN MARCOS
SANTEE
SAN DIEGO
One minute you are in a small enchanted forest the next, surrounded by architecture. Located just a few minutes away from the courthouse.
The Santee ceremony location itself has a desert feel. Clean and minimal. There is a bonus location nearby! If you are into boulders and hills, then get your comfy shoes on!
If you are looking for palm trees, city scape views and blue waters, then the San Diego location is where you want to be!
"Where do I start besides my wedding would not have been the same without Melissa. My whole family, and husband fell in love with her. I saw her pictures and could not believe her exquisite use of lighting (brides you know what I mean). You won't go wrong with her. Day of our wedding--she put our minds at ease. She took charge, made us laugh and comfortable during photos, and made it all a breeze. A true professional. Can't believe we found her. You'll be lucky if she's not already booked on your day."

Even if you just got engaged or if you already have your venue set, it's never too early to start discussing your photos. I know the wedding planning process can be overwhelming and you might feel like you don't even know what you should be asking or needing. You might even want to put off searching for a photographer. Rest assured, I will help guide you through the timeline + logistics of your wedding day. I also am happy to share with you my vendor suggestions should you still need some. I want to make this as fun and easy for you as possible. It's never too early to contact me to check my availability.
BOOK
Once contact has been established, I will send you my Wedding Timeline Checklist so you can confirm the amount of wedding coverage you would like to book me for. I am always happy to discuss this via a phone call, email or in person meet. If you are out of state/country, we can video chat :) Once all details are confirmed I will send you over the contract electronically to sign.

Wedding Walk Thru
From time of booking till the wedding day, and even after wedding day, we are always in communication. If you ever need anything never hesitate to ask. Within two weeks of your wedding date I like to do a wedding walk thru on site. Ideally at your ceremony time. Here we can confirm timeline, portrait locations, family portrait group combinations and any other items pending. If you are out of town we can facetime too.

I will make sure you stay hydrated with water + bubbly :) Within 48 hours you will get some sneek peeks from me. Final edited gallery will be delievered within 3 weeks. CHEERS!!
