I'm Meghan Ann Imagery! I'm an artist, storyteller, and lover of love. It's fitting I ended up as a wedding photographer, right? I'm based in Connecticut but wishing for the dream inquiries that will send me to Alaska, Colorado, or some place new.

“Meghan Ann Imagery LLC was the perfect choice for our wedding photography. From the very beginning, her communication was very clear, and on a personal level she is incredibly kind and sweet to deal with. We weren't initially planning to have a photographer since this was our very small "legal" wedding and we were planning a larger destination wedding, but we're so glad we decided to book Meghan last minute. On Mother's Day, she gladly accepted the job and captured every special moment beautifully. The quality of her work was tremendous, exceeding our expectations with how fast she turned around our photos, and we now have precious memories to cherish forever. We are absolutely thrilled with the photos and cannot recommend Meghan Ann Imagery LLC highly enough.”

I’ll be there to make sure the heart of your day makes its way back to you — so you can remember what really mattered on your wedding day.

“I am a photographer and wedding photography was the most important and sacred aspect of my wedding. I knew I made the right choice trusting the Greens Photo with our special day.

The core of my business is serving YOU, my clients, my people, my pals.

Every time we look at our photos, we are transported back to that magical day, reliving the emotions, the laughter, and even the quiet, tender moments we might have missed in the hustle and bustle of it all. Oh and if you are also camera-nervous couple like us, don’t worry, Ashley gets your back!! Her attention to detail and ability made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera! We were both a little nervous about being photographed, but she had a way of guiding us through each shot in such a relaxed, natural way that we almost forgot we were posing. ;) The final images exceeded all of our expectations!! She perfectly balanced candid shots with more traditional portraits, and the lighting, composition, and timing were just flawless! We looked at our photos and we were both like “who are these stunning people??” We’ve received countless compliments on the photos, our families and friends are still raving about how beautiful and authentic the photos are, and we’ll treasure them for the rest of our lives!!

I don’t take myself too seriously. I like to have a good time. I spelI things how i want and I will never wait for a crosswalk. I prefer quality over quantity. Unless we’re talking about coffee, chocolate, wine, shopping, and deals…then i want quality and quantity. I’ve got a potty mouth and a good heart. I give so many fucks about what I do. The details, the experience and creating some real good imagery. I’m an artist and I want to create something beautiful for you.

“There are truly not enough wonderful things to say about Andria: our wedding simply would not have been as magical as it was without her. She was immediately part of our family, fixing my mom's hair clip, giving me advice on how to use the bathroom in a wedding dress (facing the wall!) calming my best friend's nerves, complimenting my grandmother. She was at once everywhere and nowhere at all, capturing EVERY moment in such beautiful, incredible detail and yet never ever pulling focus or getting in the way. Her photos speak for themselves and I can't possibly put into words how incredible she is behind a lens, but I will say that looking at each of the 1,400 photos she sent us (SO quickly and with tons of gracious communication) instantly transports me to each precious moment of the best day of my life.

Not only are her photos incredible, she is also a super organized and effective communicator, which makes pre-wedding planning and organizing all of the photos during the event SO EASY. She's captured family photos for me a couple of times, and they're some of my most treasured photos. She's also just a super kind, lovely person to be around - which is super important when you'll be spending so much of your wedding day with your photographer! She adds so much ease to the experience and turns out incredible photos with tons of thoughtfully edited photos to choose from.”

A Charleston Wedding Photographer with a fierce love for storytelling, fostering memories and capturing those moments that you will want to treasure forever. I get to tell your story. And, I think that’s pretty cool. I love traveling everywhere and anywhere, talking with my hands, buying plants (and attempting to keep them alive), and spending as much time as I can with my loved ones. I have lived in Boston, Paris, and New York City, and am now lucky enough to call Charleston home, while also still traveling the world for my clients. You can usually find me on my back porch in downtown Charleston, right next to my favorite little park.

“tldr: Jessica is amazing and I don’t think you can go wrong with her if this is the style of photos you like I had a lot of difficulty picking a photographer as I’m pretty picky with photos. I knew I wanted something bright and light, with kind of a whimsical or ethereal vibe, but it was really hard finding the style until I came across the “fine art” style. Jessica’s name came up while researching this style and I decided to reach out to her among a few other fine art photographers. I definitely hoped talks would go well with Jessica as the others I contacted ended up either not responding or were wildly out of my budget. Pre-Planning: Jessica was wonderful throughout this process. She promptly responded to my emails and answered questions clearly. I never felt like I was left in the dark for any part of the process. When I sent her the timeline of the ceremony/reception, she quickly came up with a timeline to slot in all the photos to be taken ahead of time at the location (We had access to the venue for a little over an hour prior to the ceremony). She also asked for a list of family photos that we wanted to take. This made it very easy at the wedding as she could call out people’s name to make sure everyone that was supposed to be in the pictures, were in the pictures. Jessica also sent over a list of ideas for detail shots and explained she could do this ahead of time. We didn’t want extra pictures of these and decided against it, however, I still thought it was very thoughtful of her to offer. Wedding Day: I loved her energy at the wedding. She was very calm and felt very competent. She directed my husband and I throughout the pictures, showing us poses etc. During family and wedding party photos, even though we had many bodies to fit in the frame in quite a few pictures, she led us through them with ease and the entire experience was very stress free (or as stress free as can be at a wedding lol). The venue was quite dim at specific locations, but the final results did not reflect that at all. The pictures were bright and did not look like they were taken in the dark at all. (This is a little off topic but I loved the little apron with pockets she wore for her equipment. So cute) I’m not sure when Jessica had the time, but there were pictures around the venue which were so beautiful. I definitely feel like the day was captured through the pictures. Post Wedding: Jessica sent us a sneak peak 2 days after the wedding containing 23 pictures. They turned out great and were beautiful. You can see examples on her website so I won’t elaborate, but they really are that good. The full gallery was sent almost a month after the wedding (minus 2 days) with instructions on purchasing prints or an album attached. The full download contained 650ish files, including the sneak peek pictures. Half of which were black and white, so this matched up pretty perfectly with Jessica’s estimation of the amount of photos when we spoke in the pre-planning stage.”

Hi there!! I'm Kie, pronounced like pie. I've been a photographer of some sort for nearly a decade, but weddings didn't come into my life until 2020 (perfect timing!!), it's become my personality trait and I truly don't think I could love doing anything more than this. Some things about me: I prefer series over movies (Gossip Girl, The Office, Buffy TVS, How I Met Your Mother are some of my faves), I'm nothing if not a Paramore fan, I love cute and cheesy romance novels, and I think I am hilarious. I love being your #1 hype girl, joining the party at the reception, and making you comfortable on your big day :)

“We will rave about our experience with Kie for the rest of our lives! She is an absolute angel and has exceeded every expectation we have! We booked Kie for our wedding and she did our engagement photos as well! Her work is pure art and absolutely breathtaking. She is one of the most talented photographers we have come across. Not only will her work be the photos of your dreams, but she is such a remarkable person to work with! Kie is so kind, fun, and outgoing, she is very personable and makes you feel comfortable being in front of a camera (like it’s not even there). One comment that my husband made after our first session with Kie for engagement photos, was that it felt like going on a date, we enjoyed ourselves so much, it was really fun and light-hearted. From the very beginning, she was nothing short of amazing! She is flexible with scheduling and was super willing to travel almost 5 states away to photograph our wedding! She was always on time and never skipped a beat! The one thing that we really looked for in a photographer was someone who captures the raw, pure moments, rather than being posed for every picture. Kie does exactly that, you can feel the life and soul in every picture she captures, her photos are better than your pinterest inspiration and will be the art on your wall you will cherish forever. We will definitely be using her for all of our future photography needs and we will definitely be recommending her to anyone and everyone. Thank you so much Kie! God has blessed you with an amazing gift and talent!”
