Hi there! I'm a sweet tea addicted, book loving, adventure seeking fur mom based in Gloucester, Virginia. My husband (also my second photographer!) and I capture weddings all across the Love State, from the beaches in Hampton Roads to the mountains in the Blue Ridge. We provide couples with bright, true to color photography so you and your loved ones can enjoy your wedding day for generations to come. We offer high organization, fast communication, and strict attention to detail so you don't have to worry about a single thing - just enjoy the moment with you best friend & love!

Melanie was the perfect choice for our wedding photographer! She was so easy to work with and helpful at determining what we needed for our special day. It was great to have a test run to her work by doing engagement photos first. She was so flexible with us on ensuring the weather would be perfect. We loved how she made us feel comfortable in front of the camera since it was really our first time professionally. After taking photos she had a really quick turnaround for sneak peeks before all the rest were ready. The shots she took for the engagement and for the wedding were gorgeous and creative! Melanie managed to beautifully capture all the special moments, even those we didn't realize would be so important to remember! We are thrilled with the final product and would highly recommend Photography by Melanie to any couple looking for an outstanding wedding photographer!

In creating Signature DJs, Brandon recruited a team of professional and experienced DJs and event planners available to meet and exceed all of your needs.

We offer so many different options to personalize your wedding and make the experience unique for you and your guests. We have lighting, special effects, and even licensed pyrotechnicians on our team that can provide professional fireworks displays (both day and night) to show off your style with impact!

Awarded Best of Zola
Now for the details: Brandon, Kellie, Elmer, and Becky were excellent to work with. They were communicative throughout the entire process and even sent monthly checklists to ensure the wedding planning timeline was ironed out and reminded you of the small details that most folks forget about. It’s the little things like these emails that went above and beyond to make sure our evening went as smoothly as possible. Our DJ, Elmer, was very enthusiastic despite challenges at the beginning of the event – the venue coordinator was very combative with him during set-up – and he didn’t let it affect the energy of the evening. (We didn’t find out until after the wedding date from our other vendors setting up and we had to reach out and ask about it because he didn’t want us to worry at all). He provided a high energy level and hits for dancing the whole evening and stuck to our favorite music vibes. Our photo booth operator, Becky, pulled us aside to take photos in the booth and thank goodness she did because we didn’t get the chance to go in before or after she pulled us aside. She put our guestbook together throughout the evening and it was fun to have something that captured our night to look through the next morning. Signature DJs was reasonably priced considering everything we received - music for ceremony & reception, mics, uplighting for dance floor, photo booth with guest book, monogram, and bubble exit complete with 2 bubble machines and bubbles for individual guests. They were flexible with our requests (customized monogram, unconventional timeline, and last-minute song additions) and had already worked at our venue so they were already familiar with the space which was super helpful because the venue coordinator was awful to work with. They put us at ease and gave us confidence that our day would be wonderful when we were the most stressed. Thank you so much, Brandon, Kellie, and team for setting the tone and giving us a memorable night!

With backgrounds rooted in storytelling, Bryauna studied broadcast at VCU and spent years creating and editing content, while Jamar built a strong presence as a video-focused content creator.

Awarded Best of Zola
We absolutely loved working with Bryauna and Jamar at Moments for Life Visuals. From booking our initial consultation to giving updates on wedding timelines to following up post wedding, they were responsive and easy to get in touch with. Jamar showed up right on time on our wedding day and we felt really comfortable with him around. He managed to capture the entire vibe of the day from the big moments to the little details. We were really on the fence about whether or not the cost of a videographer would be worth it since we already booked a photographer. Moments for Life had packages that fit with our budget and we’re so glad we booked them. Photos are great, but the videos we got are so full of life and are truly magical. If you’re on the fence about hiring a videographer - DO IT! We also really appreciated that Moments for Life gave us the raw footage of our ceremony, reception speeches, dancing, and cake cutting.

As both a bride and a former wedding coordinator, I can’t recommend Kaytlyn enough! From the very beginning, she was a dream to work with — professional, responsive, and so easygoing. We first worked with her for our engagement session, and the results were absolutely stunning — she captured us so naturally and beautifully that we knew instantly she was the perfect choice for our wedding. On a personal note, I also booked a boudoir session with her as a surprise for my husband on our wedding day. She made me feel completely comfortable in a very vulnerable setting, and within minutes I was totally at ease. The results were elegant, empowering, and something I will treasure forever. On the wedding day itself, she blended seamlessly into the flow of events, capturing everything without ever feeling intrusive. Having worked with many photographers in my coordinator role, I can say her professionalism and ability to connect with her clients is truly exceptional. She has that rare combination of talent, warmth, and efficiency that every bride dreams of in a wedding vendor. If you’re a bride looking for a photographer who will make you feel comfortable, capture your day beautifully, and handle everything with professionalism, look no further — Kaytlyn is the one!

Mak was everything we could have hoped for as a wedding photographer. Since the moment we had a consultation, she was nothing but friendly and honest. She made my husband, who is extremely camera shy, feel comfortable in front of the camera and offered so many poses for us. Not to mention the quality of our gallery!! As someone who gets overwhelmed with major decision making, I can say with upmost confidence that Mak was the best and easiest decision as a vendor for our wedding, and I would choose her again and again!! This is your sign to book with her!!
