About Bonnie Merrick
Many people don’t like having their pictures taken, and that’s okay. I try to keep my sessions light, fun, and enjoyable using different techniques. The initial consultation is a great way for me to learn what your expectations are, answer your questions, and offer any guidance I can provide.
I have been a professional photographer for over 5 years. I have experience shooting weddings, corporate events, portraits and headshots.

"Bonnie is an amazing photographer! I've worked with many over the years, and she is one of the absolute best! It started with excellent communication from the beginning and through to the very end. Bonnie kept in touch throughout the entire process. She reached out immediately, asked for preferences and requests, confirmed everything and went so far as asking for all of our group's names, including our pets. She is super thoughtful and paid great attention to detail, such as advising us on a better time for our outdoor shoot, researching the views of/from our home, providing helpful clothing tips, and graciously accommodating a reschedule request. She made the entire process stress-free, but what ultimately blew me away was Bonnie's grasp of lighting! Her work was incredible especially in getting shots where the sun was fierce and when it was setting as well as in instances where light and shadows were simultaneously present in the background. Lighting always makes the difference regardless of the backgrounds, clothing choices, poses, etc., and she nailed it! I highly recommend Bonnie, and I look forward to working with her again in the future!"
