West Virginia Wedding

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

Styled shoots are always special for photographers. All participants work so hard to create a dream wedding. Beautiful florals, tablescapes, and the flower wall was my absolute favorite. Might I add the couple looked like they were out of Vogue! There is so much to love.
This was my first styled shoot. Previously I was also a skeptic because it sounds a little intimidating only having a small amount of time to shoot each event. Moreover, you are also shooting alongside other photographers who need to get their shots as well! When I finally decided to give the Styled Session a try, it was fate Chelsey and I crossed paths! We were both part of an international styled group where I asked for Styled Shoots on the Eastern Coast. When Chelsea posted that she was planning one at 304 Collective in Fairmont, West Virginia, I immediately jumped at the opportunity. I was willing to travel to Charleston South Carolina for a Styled Session so when I realized it was only two hours north, that was definitely more appealing.
Chelsey planned every detail from a photographers standpoint. From the lighting, to display, to the couple; it was phenomenal!
I have seen so many florals over the years, but I love what Shyla put together. If I was getting married again these are the florals I would choose without a doubt! Pinks are my favorite! In fact, I love them so much the flower photos are the background on my computer!
So without further waiting, I hope you enjoy all these beautiful photos and amazing vendors I was blessed to work with! I would HIGHLY recommend each and everyone one of them 🙂

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.
