West Virginia Engagements

Hi, I'm Melissa, a photographer and brand content creator based in Wv. So glad you're here.

I had the pleasure of meeting Lauren at a wedding show this past winter. Her mom and her came over to speak to my assistant and I as we discussed wedding options. After they walked off my assistant and I were talking about what a sweet heart she was and how we –Hoped- she booked with me. To my surprise I caught her mom in the hallway just as the show was ending and she told me she decided to book! I was thrilled.
“A wise man once told me that God sends you the brides that are right for you.” I wholeheartedly agree. Lauren and Justin are a prime example. Lauren is kind and easy to get along with. At her engagement session I was shocked at how photogenic she was. I don’t think she took one bad photo.
Her soon to be husband Justin was seriously as great as she was! In the photos, when they looked into each others eyes, it was natural. It wasn’t awkward or silly, it was Sweet. If their wedding day goes in anyway like there engagement session, its is going to be amazing.
To top it off their wedding is going to be at one of my favorite venues Daniels Vineyard.
Stay tuned for these gorgeous wedding photos coming this July!

-Engagement photos were taken at another amazing wedding venue Athena Farm & Vineyard Located in Beckley, Wv

Behind the Camera

MELISSA
KINCAID

I've always been drawn to things that feel timeless — beautiful in a way that doesn't fade. That's how I approach weddings, too.
I'm not just showing up to take photos. I'm paying attention to the moments as they're happening and capturing them in a way that feels real, natural, and true to you.
I've been doing this for over a decade, and what still drives me is the same thing that started it all — a genuine love for people and the stories they carry. My work has been featured in Magnolia Rouge, Cake & Lace, and other fine publications, but my favorite measure of success is still a bride who says she forgot I was even there.
Based in Charleston, West Virginia, I photograph weddings across WV, Virginia, and destinations worldwide — and I'd love to be part of yours.
