She has a true gift for making everyone feel completely at ease in front of the camera and even our dogs! What I love most is how she captures those genuine moments you can't fake: the laughs, the connection, the little quirks that make our family us. Her photos have become a cherished part of our holiday tradition, and we couldn't imagine working with anyone else.

After thoroughly looking for photographers for over a month, we're glad that we discovered Melissa…read more She was extremely responsive and made herself quickly available to connect via video chat to discuss our options. We were hoping to get photos done before our son's 1st birthday and she was able to provide us with a great date/time option. We really lucked out. On the day of our shoot we couldn't have asked for a better experience. The drive to the studio was beautiful and worth it - we drove from over 30 minutes away. The studio was immaculate and ready to go for our time together. Her prep email was extremely detail oriented and let us know exactly what to expect. Once there we could easily see the setups and there was a perfect place for us to finish getting ready. Even though we brought most of our outfits she also offered an additional one for us to use and it photographed so lovely. Lastly, the cake smash session was literally the icing on the cake. She has a wonderful referral that made the most beautiful cake for us. Our custom banner was EXACTLY what we were looking for in terms of colors and vibe. She got our son to warm up, have fun, and capture his personality. Melissa's patience, professionalism, strong communication via email/text, and warmth was much appreciated as first time parents for our first shoot. We look forward to working with her again in the future!

She helped me pick out a lovely gown from her collection of maternity gowns to borrow for the photo shoot. She was even so kind to reschedule a gown try on when I accidentally missed the appointment! She put my husband and I at ease during the photo shoot, choosing a beautiful location and knowing what poses to suggest to create beautiful photos that we will forever cherish. We couldn't be more thankful and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for maternity photos!

I thought getting married was a really tough decision.. I was wrong, finding a wedding photographer…read morewas ten times harder. My wife and I couldn't agree on anyone until we met Mary Ellen. She was super busy at the time and we had to wait a couple days to get an appointment, but it was worth it. My wife and Mary Ellen hit it off immediately.

She was in the middle of refurbishing the other half of her upstairs and the after photos she posted on her Instagram look great for your future shoot.

I'm not what you would call a "girlie girl," so the idea of picking out outfits and posing for photos was completely new and a bit scary for me. We started with a phone call and Michael did a great job of walking me through outfit choices and suggestions. The day of, I met him at his studio. He was absolutely delightful. Professional, respectful, funny, calming, and flattering, the perfect combination to calm you down and make you feel good about yourself. He knew exactly what to say to help me relax and get the shot. What I loved most was the process. Due to the way the studio is set up, we could take a series of photos, then go and sit down and take a look at the photos. This allowed for us to discuss lighting, colors, and positioning. Before taking another series. After I choose the photos I was happy with, Michael "finalized them" with some minor edits and emailed me the final photos. Even then he was willing to make some changes. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised by the experience. Something I initially dreaded turned into an amazing and even fun time. I highly recommend Michael and will definitely return for future photography needs.

Hey you. Yes, YOU. Are you using a selfie for your LinkedIn profile? It's OK. Michael Epaul…read morephotography can fix that. It was time for me to get some corporate headshots and my employer was not about to spend any money in hiring a professional for me. I decided I owed it to myself to put my best face forward. I searched for portrait photographers with a studio in Springfield, and Michael Epaul came up. First, I will say, that this trend of photographers not having a studio baffles me. I would never consider someone a professional if they did not have a professional work space! That being said, Michael Epaul Photography has a gorgeous, cozy studio, so you don't have to worry about a setting. For the ladies, or anyone interested, hair & makeup can be added to your session. This worked out well because it took the pressure off me of having to arrive at the studio in perfect condition. And then the headshots began. From start to finish, the process was streamlined. Prompt communication via text and/or email worked very well. I was given about 20 pictures to choose from; I picked one and was given 2 versions of it. And don't tell anyone, but....Michael was able to ahem....touch up things about me in a natural way (aka he took away the 10 lbs the camera adds). Overall, very satisfied with this portrait session and look forward to doing business with this photographer in the future. NOTE: on site parking, accepts credit cards, and photographer does more than just portraits (weddings mitzvahs and more!)

She did amazing work photographing my daughter's first birthday party this summer as well as a cake smash and family session. She is so patient and gentle and takes her time to make sure everyone around her is comfortable and happy! And the photos were beyond amazing! We very recently had the pleasure of being photographed by Ana again for a family Christmas "mini session" at a tree farm. We had so much fun and created beautiful memories that we will cherish forever. My daughter is usually very shy but she warmed up to Ana very quickly and had a blast! I would highly recommend the mini sessions for fall/holiday memories and a quick fun time with family or friends!
