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

My Favorite Wedding Venues of 2026
These venues are my current obsession for 2026 weddings. Each one has something unique to offer—some are bold and grand, while others are intimate, quiet, and quaint. The best part? Every couple can find a space that perfectly reflects their story. (And yes, they’re listed in no particular order 😉)

The Bradford

The Bradford is a European-inspired wedding venue nestled in the heart of North Carolina, known for its refined architecture, manicured grounds, and effortlessly romantic atmosphere.bradford wedding

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.
