light and airy
They say the days are long, but the years are short and time is the only thing we cannot buy, get back, or trade. With every year that passes, our children grow and change... There's no better way to honor the blessing of your growing family than documenting every season along the way.
From one momma to another, I understand the importance of a relationship with a photographer whose style you love, who's personality you connect with, who will guide you and will pray with and for you every step of your motherhood journey.
I cannot wait to get to know your beautiful family.
xoxo,Meivys

I highly recommend Meivys & David for event and portrait photography. The images were exactly what we wanted. For our baby shower, we received a detailed timeline or run of show and they asked for specifics on "must have" photos. For our most recent portrait shoot, we were given awesome tips on what to wear, and an amazing pinterest board with possible poses and ideas. We also love that the entire gallery of photos was made available to us digitally in less than two weeks. I have worked with other photographers, and this turn around time is unheard of! Simply incredible! So grateful to have these memories. Wishing Meivys & David continued success, thank you so much!"
"From the moment you reach out to the delivery of the photos, they are extremely client driven and thoughtful.

"Their work is truly exceptional. We couldn't recommend them more.
Meivys and David are truly fantastic! My husband and I have always disliked having pictures taken of us. However, we wanted to have beautiful pictures with our baby girl. Meivys and David have been amazing during our two sessions. They have made sure to help us feel comfortable with the process. Furthermore, the picture quality is amazing. Their work is truly exceptional. We couldn't recommend them more. You will not regret it! :) We can't wait to work with them again.

When I found out I was pregnant, photography was one of the most important elements for me during this journey. Since the moment I got in contact with them I knew right away we had found our photographers. I was able to see their style and it was exactly what we were looking for and I couldn't be happier with my decision. They are friendly and responsible, fun and easy to work with. We had wonderful experiences each and every time we hire them for our family events and that's the reason we keep hiring them and highly recommending them to our friends and family.
"They are super easy to work with, very professional and detail oriented...

From the moment we scheduled with them, they were beyond prepared to answer all of our questions...Working with them on the day of our shoot it was so evident to us that they are true professionals. They have such an attention to detail, creating a memorable and enjoyable moment, and making sure we had images we truly loved. What's best is that within the same day as our photo session they shared with us some sneak pictures from our session and quickly followed up about when we could expect our finished images. We look forward to working with them in the future! They are truly superb!

On the day of the session your only job enjoy the moment - you don't have to worry about poses, untucked shirts, loose hairs, etc. I will coach you through entire session with prompts rather than poses so that we get natural , gentle, timeless images. If you have little ones, expect tickling, eskimo kisses, and lots of loving and laughter. My goal is always to ensure you are comfortable and soaking up the core memories you are building during the session.

When your album and prints arrive, we inspect them and repackage them for you with so much love. As a photographer, I feel like my work is done when your photographs are displayed like art in your home or your albums and folio boxes on your coffee tables, all carefully curated for conversations and joyful storytelling.

Prints &LuxuryAlbums
There is something SO special about creating an heirloom collection
We're big fans of art prints and luxury albums. While it may have a lot to do with having albums and prints in our home growing up, it has even more to do with security and legacy. Technology is unreliable, but printed photographs will always endure and withstand the test of time. No matter how technology changes, or what we will face in the future, you will always have your family's story in print and protected. We can hold it, touch it, feel it, relive it, and share it. What a beautiful legacy we can leave the next generation.
If you haven’t already invested in heirlooms of your own, you're in for a treat when you get your first one in your hands. However, we're so passionate about helping you create your heirloom collection that you can always come back at any time and order one up to a year after you session.

Question: when should i book & when do we shoot?
Answer: depends on what your dream session is like
Photographers are booked out months in advance, so you'll want to book as soon as you find the perfect fit for your family. Depending on your goals for you family's session, you'll want to book a minimum of 2 months in advance to give adequate amount of time to prepare without feeling rushed or pressured.

Question: what's your photography style?
Answer: Light, Airy + Vibrant
Most photographers have a particular shooting and editing style, whether it's light and airy, dramatic and heavy on lighting effects, or moody and dark, you'll be able to notice consistency in their portfolio that will indicate what the final images will be. Whichever style you love, be sure to your photographer is able to deliver the style you want and always dreamed of. If you like a light and airy style, don't book a moody photographer and vice versa. We suggest looking through the photographer's portfolio and don't sacrifice your preferred style for price! These are your FOREVER memories.

Next Question
QUESTION: WILL YOU BE THE PHOTOGRAPHER FOR MY SESSION?
Answer: Absolutely!
This may sound like a silly question, but depending on the photography company, you may not always have the owners or lead photographers photographing your session. It's important to ask this so you're not surprised on the day with a photographer you haven't met yet. We photograph all of our own sessions. We pride ourselves in building relationships with our clients; being there for them every step of the way and communicating expectations throughout every touchpoint.

Next Question
QUESTION: HOW LONG AFTER THE SESSION WILL WE RECEIVE OUR IMAGES?
Answer: Sneak Peeks within 24 hours, 4-6 weeks
This question can vary a ton! Photographers all have their timelines and you can't rush art!, you know what I mean? We always provide our families with 24 hour Sneak Peeks and deliver your gallery between 4-6 weeks after your session. However, we know just how excited you are to see them and how excited we are to share them, so we try our best to get the images to you ASAP!
