About - Megan Read Photography

WE'RE MEG + IAN

Partners in love, life, and business

Together for 10 years, shooting side by side for 7 years. We grew up together in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania. Both of us have photography backgrounds so it made sense for us to start shooting together as a team.

As a couple we work closely to capture weddings in a genuine & fun fashion. We believe your images should take you back and not only remind you of how your wedding looked, but how it felt.

Our style can be described as light, clean, and elegant. We take pride in capturing the graceful, vibrant and heartfelt moments while creating a comfortable and enjoyable experience for our couples. While we primarily focus on those pretty romantic photos, we also heavily prioritize documenting the rawness of your day and all of the gritty, imperfect moments that tell a real story.

The Team

Our goal with every wedding is to create soft, bright, and natural-looking images that tell your story authentically. Our artistic, photojournalistic approach is used to honor the integrity of your wedding- allowing you to enjoy every moment of your day and still receive photos that will evoke joy for years to come.

We are a duo. We don't have an extensive associate team or editors that we’re passing you off to; instead, you get the owners of the business, who are committed to serving you fully. We are the ones behind the business and we care more than you know.

Every step of our process is meant to learn more about you and your story to make your wedding photos all that you've dreamed they would be. You will receive a personally tailored approach from our questionnaires to learn more about your priorities, to a custom photo timeline. We've shot over 150 weddings together and bring our storytelling + intention to every wedding we document.

We are based in New York City but we travel all over the East Coast for weddings. We are constantly dreaming up our next big trip. If you're planning an elopement, wedding, anniversary session, engagement photos- let's talk!

The short of it

We went to middle school & high school together (ask to see our prom photo), started dating shortly after graduating, moved to Philadelphia and picked up cameras together. After 4 years in Philly, 5 years in Pittsburgh, we now find ourselves in NYC for our next adventure. We love exploring the outdoors, loving on our cats, watching movies, thrifting, and trying out new places to eat.
