this isn't just a photoshoot. my goal is to create a

experience to tell your story.

fun

the experience

First things first, submit your inquiry under the BOOK ME tab + don't leave out any details! Tell me all about y'all's love story + what you want captured during our time together. Within 24 business hours I'll send over my detailed Investment Guide + we'll start planning your perfect session!

To make things officially official you'll sign the dotted line + pay a 30% non-refundable booking retainer!

step 2: secure your date

This is one of my favorite parts of the whole process: planning all the small details! I'm not that photographer that goes radio silent once you pay your deposit. We will be in regular communication between booking + your session date because I want to make sure you get absolutely everything out of your experience. I'll be sending you all the fun style + prep guides and fun questionnaires, really getting to know y'all on a personal level so I can tell your story as authentically as possible.

step 3: planning

I know all too well how scary it can be getting in front of the camera, but let me reassure you now: within a few minutes all those jitters will go away. I won't make you awkwardly stare at the camera + add unnecessary pressure. I want to capture y'all in your element, how you are together and that is with prompts rather than poses. By the time the shoot is over, you're going to feel like freakin' Beyonce (cue hair blowing in the wind).

step 4: the big day

Once all is said + done, it's time for my magic to happen! Within four weeks of your session I'll send your full online gallery via email for you to download + order gorgeous, luxury prints! Trust me, I'll be working hard to get your photos to you sooner than four weeks because I know you'll be so anxious + excited to see how they turned out!

step 5: gallery delivery

kailani + max

Not only did the photos turn out incredible and better than we could have ever imagined, but the way she guided us throughout the day made us feel so comfortable and at ease on what can be a stressful day! I cannot recommend Mae Meadows Photography enough!!! She is extremely professional, insanely talented, and truly one of the friendliest people we have ever met! I will cherish these photographs for the rest of my life!! Her attention to detail is out of this world! She captured our wedding exactly how it felt to live it! She is AMAZING!!!"

"Megan took our engagement photos and we’re over the moon with our beautiful photos and the great experience we’ve had! We brought our dog along for our photo session and loved that she captured some photos of us to treasure with her in them. We can’t wait for her to be present at our wedding and capture those memories as well. Megan is super sweet, made us feel comfortable, and has been professional with her time, communication, and quality of work. You will not regret hiring her as your photographer!"

steph + kyle

"Megan took our pictures last year in the sand dunes and we were so in love with them that we just knew she had to capture our maternity session! We are both a little camera shy but Megan makes it feel so easy and always knows how to make you feel comfortable and relaxed. She is seriously magic and puts so much love and effort into all of her work!! She is the absolute sweetest and I couldn't recommend her enough."

love notes

I'm based out of a suburb southwest of Denver, Colorado! I regularly shoot all over the Denver-metro area as well as Colorado Springs + Boulder.

Another question I'm frequently asked is if I travel + the answer is hell yeah! Please refer to the next FAQ for Travel Fee info!

Where are you located?

back to FAQs

In State Travel:
All of my packages include a total of 30 complimentary miles. For locations that require more than 30 miles of travel, a flat rate round-trip Travel Fee will incur depending on the distance. This fee covers drive time, tolls, gas + vehicle maintenance. If your location is 2+ hours away, an additional fee will be added to cover the cost of a hotel + food.

Out of State Travel:
Air fare + lodging + rental car will be calculated based on your desired location.


What are your Travel Fees?

back to FAQs

I shoot on dual Canon 5D Mark IV camera bodies which have dual memory card slots so that I am recording all of my images on 2 SD cards simultaneously. As soon as I get home from sessions I immediately back up the images on 3 separate external hard drives AND a cloud backup. Just to be extra extra safe, I do not erase my SD cards until the session has been delivered. 
 

So rest assured your images are safe + sound with plenty of backups to prevent anything from being lost.

How do you backup your images?

back to FAQs

Nope! I only deliver the best of the best + that is my unique, creative edits!

Do you deliver raw/unedited images?

back to FAQs

My turn-around time is 4 weeks for regular sessions, 6 weeks for elopements and 8 weeks for weddings.

What is your turnaround time?

back to FAQs

I tend to book up two-three months in advance. Please please please reach out as soon as you know you want to book with me to ensure we can get a date scheduled for you! I always say: it's never "too soon"!

How far in advance should I book?

back to FAQs

First things first: submit that inquiry under the “BOOK ME” tab! After discussing all the deets + deciding that we are the right fit for one another, it's time to make it official by signing a contract + paying your 30% non-refundable booking deposit. Dates are not guaranteed + bookings are handled on a first come, first serve basis.

How do I book with you?
