About Melodie Joy Creatives

Melodie Joy Creatives

Owner | Photo | Design |Travel

I am truly happy you're here. My passion is to create a connection, capturing a moment that's gone forever, impossible to reproduce. You are not just a client. I answered the call of the Caribbean and immersed myself in the wild beauty of the Dominican Republic, but I'm available to travel throughout the United States and the Caribbean — and everywhere in between! Driven by a passion for these islands, the invigorating salt air, and a simpler way of life, living on my sailboat has completely transformed my approach to capturing the raw, unfiltered essence of love and adventure that makes each experience unforgettable.

With 20+ years of experience in the wedding industry, a seasoned people person & lifestyle photographer, I'm here to guide you through this whole process, from documenting that celebratory kiss after you've said “I will” to celebrating “I do”. I'm a values-based business. I infuse my passion for capturing the real you & moments together. I will do everything in my power to make you feel comfortable during our time together with incredible photos. I always include: All your photos. Full copyrights. An online gallery. Custom built packages for your budget, vision & location. Cheers!

Typically, couples book me about 10 - 13 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame.
ALWAYS! I’ll bring one or more assistant photographers, depending on the size of your wedding.
Definitely. All final images will be edited for color, saturation, exposure, and sharpness to ensure they look beautiful. I also offer retouching services like blemish removal and teeth whitening for NO CHARGE
Fast Turnaround, Guaranteed I'm known for my quick turnaround — it's one of my specialties! All clients receive a 30-photo teaser gallery to enjoy on your honeymoon. Your full wedding gallery will then be fully edited and ready within 10 days. In rare cases involving special circumstances, it may take up to two weeks — but that's the exception, not the rule. I always aim to get your photos to you as quickly as possible, at no extra charge. Along with your edited photos, you'll receive an online gallery with high-resolution image files, so you can download, view, and share your memories with loved ones — and order prints right away!
YES, I offer a highlight reel for Social Media only. With drone footage!
I do! Just let me know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and I’ll send that over to them.
In my 27 years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve never cancelled a booking. In the very rare event that I’m unable to photograph your wedding, I’ll make sure you’re covered by one of my colleagues or my contracted assistant, so you can find the perfect replacement.
