"Megan is amazing! We had a Spring mini session with our rambunctious 4 year old and 6 month old baby. She kept them both entertained by making the shoot fun, and captured some of the sweetest and most beautiful candid photos of our family. I ordered a huge print for our wall the same day we got our photos back because there were just magical. 10/10 recommend!"

"I had the best experience with Megan doing a mommy & me photoshoot with my 5 month old. I'm shy and awkward during photoshoots because I have no idea what to do. Megan instantly made me feel so comfortable and had lots of suggestions for poses and things to do with my baby, and she caught some great candids too! The photos turned out amazing!"

"Megan was great! I did a mommy & me shoot recently with 2 overtired, hungry kids, and I was sure we wouldn't get any good photos....but she somehow captured the sweetest moments. Megan was so patient, kind, and had tricks up her sleeve to keep my kids engaged. I will treasure these photos! Highly recommend!"

“I booked a mini session for my daughter and I following her 2nd birthday, and Megan was an absolute joy to work with. She picked a beautiful location and was great at managing my two year olds attitude, getting big smiles, and great photos. We will definitely work with her again in the future! Thanks Megan!"

"Working with Megan Lydon Photography was such a wonderful experience. She captured both our Mommy & me session and a Spring Family Mini, and the photos were everything we hoped for- natural, joyful, and full of love. Megan has a special talent for making families, especially young children, feel relaxed and comfortable, which truly shines through in her work. We’re incredibly grateful for the beautiful memories she helped create and can’t recommend her enough!”

“I reached out to Megan when I saw her post about mini sessions because I wanted family photos now that we were a family of 5. I wasn’t sure how it would go with a 5 yr old, an almost 3 yr old and a 5 month old, however, she was so kind and welcoming, and made it as stress free as possible. She made us all feel right at ease, the kids were comfortable instantly! She made it fun and captured the exact photos I wanted. It was a short, sweet, picture perfect session.
