What People are Saying....



Snapped With Love Photography has a Facebook FAN PAGE!!!! Many of my clients have left amazing remarks about our work and I wanted to take a moment to share!!!

I hold MANY contests on FaceBook, if you're not a fan, you should be!!!



We love your work. Not only have you done the best maternity pics for us, but you have inspired me to be a photographer as well. You are artistic and extremely patient and uber talented. We have hired you to do our friend's wedding as well as our newborn and Christmas pics.

We LOVE your work!!!! Keep it up girl. ♥

Not only is Melissa Brewer one of my dearest friends but she is an excellent person. So when she decided to take up photography on a full time basis, I thought, 'who better to capture my family's memories than my good friend'. What makes her different? She takes the time to get to know who YOU are... and puts that on paper. Melissa has a great gift... and I have many memories to prove it. All my love Missy!!! Keep up the good work!!!


Melissa took our family pictures in November. They were truly the best pictures we have ever had taken! She even got my moody 8 year old daughter to smile! I was so happy with the pictures. Everyone LOVED them and we had the best time taking them. I will cherish these pictures forever. Thanks, Melissa!!!

Snapped with Love Photography has done an amazing job of friends of mine family pictures. She was able to capture great moments over and over again that you can only cross your fingers and hope for ONE picture like that. Hopefully I will be using you in the future for my pictures and I will recommend you to anyone who asks about great photographers.

Melissa photographed my family in September 2009. She did an AWESOME job, and we were very pleased with the pictures!!! Even though the weather wasn't all that we hoped for, we all worked through it, and the pictures turned out great!! Thanks Melissa!!!!!!!

I met Melissa about 4 years ago. She tried to help me find a job through Dan Temps when I first moved here to Houston. We've kept in touch all this time, mainly through FB. When I noticed Melissa was doing photography, I contacted her for her information. She gave me her website and when I viewed the photographs she had taken and the moments she had captured, I knew I had to book an appointment! I love the textures in her photography and the creativity she uses. My husband and I spent one Saturday morning with Melissa taking pictures. I waited anxiously for her to post a sample of the pictures on FB and when she did, I was amazed at the results! She captured us completely. Her photos captured our goofiness, our love, and to my surprise, even made us look sexy. lol I guess you often wonder how people see you and Melissa has given me a glimpse of how the world might see Danny and me. Not only that, but she has given me the best pictures to display in our home and share with our loved ones. Thank you, Melissa! I will definitely be using your services again in the near future and recommending you!

What fun it is to see the end result after a photo shoot.. I remember looking at some pics last year after Melissa shot our Tiny Treasure's preschool splash day.. I could see the passion she has for capturing that perfect shot and the expressions on the childrens faces were priceless.. I cant wait to see what my family pictures look like she shot us today !! I will report back with another review when I see them...AND I admit I am a Snapped With Love Photography stalker.. I look at Melissa's blog and see the amazing pics she posts of people I dont even know.. I love them all !!! And now I can truly say I love mine.. I do have to admit I wasnt too sure about the gushy ones, but I do love them all .. Thanks Melissa!!!!!

I am very please with my experiences with Snapped with Love Photography. Melissa first took maternity pictures of me. I wasn't sure about having maternity pictures taken but knew it was my last pregnancy and I wouldn't have the chance again. Melissa made me look wonderful in the pictures! She has sense taken pictures of my children twice since then. She is great with kids and really captures the moment. There were so many cute ones to chose from. I have been very happy with my pictures and would highly recommend her.

I was referred by a co-worker when I has having a hard time finding the RIGHT person to capture the memorable moments of my wedding and I wanted to work with someone I trusted and Melissa was that person automatically! She was so easy to work with and made getting your picture taken FUN! And now I visual memories that will last me my family and friends a life time! Thank you Melissa! I highly recommend you to EVERYONE!

Melissa photographed our daughters baptism on Dec 6. The pictures came out more beautiful than we could have ever hoped for. The compliments from friends and family have been endless.

Melissa photographed me at 36 weeks with my FOURTH pregnancy. I was really nervous about the way I looked and not sure I would like my photos. When we scheduled with Melissa, she gave me lots of samples to look at so I could get an idea of what to expect and let her know what I liked/disliked. She found a private place so I could be comfortable baring my tummy. She set me at ease immediately, and had me laughing through the session. She was also amazingly patient with my kids. When I saw the photos, I was so pleasantly surprised that I cried! She touched up my tummy to hide the inevitable marks, and got really great angles. I was so happy with my experience and highly endorse her. If I am blessed with a fifth baby, I know who to call. Thank you so much!!!

Words truly cannot express how wonderful and talented Missy is when it comes to taking pictures!!! She loves what she does and it shows. I highly recommend Snapped With Love Photography to anyone getting married, having a baby, needing holiday pictures, or just wanting to capture a special moment in time. Thanks Missy for giving me pictures that I will always cherish!!!

Melissa did our family photo shoot on Nov 21. It was raining, cold and I had 3 cranky children. Melissa did a FANTASTIC job working with us. We met at the original location, then we traveled twice. She worked very hard considering the weather conditions.

Thank you for making our family photos beautiful and a special memory that we will cherish forever! I have recommended Snapped With Love Photography to numerous family/friends. Melissa truly loves what she does and it definitely shows in her work ethic and her photos!!
