Drawn to soft, creamy goodness and beautiful natural light, I believe that photography is all about emotion and connection; bringing you back to the moment when you held your little one for the first time. Those heart-felt moments cannot be replicated or replaced, but they can be forever remembered and cherished through the images we create. Whether you want digital files, love having artwork on the walls, or treasure an album that tells your story- our goal is put these memories in your hands in a tangible way that you can enjoy each and every day.
Megan Marlene Photography is a natural-light portrait studio welcoming the dearest newborns and families from the Greater Anchorage, Eagle River, and Mat-Su Valley Areas and across Alaska. Specializing in maternity, fresh 48, newborn, baby, milestone, and family portraits, my studio established the pure, light, and airy photography that we are known for and create a luxury experience for my clients and their families.

With three littles of my own, I know first-hand what it feels like to have your children grow up too fast. You can't even blink before the months and years pass by and it makes me want to hold onto each precious memory with both hands. And I'm not the only parent to feel that way. Understanding and sharing that heart-pull to document each season and milestone is what drives my photography and makes my heart truly happy.
Expertise
With nearly 15 years in photography and nine years as a newborn photographer, I've welcomed over 300 babies and hundreds of families.
Care
I'm a mom, too. I know how important these memories are. We'll go over every concern and I will take care of all the details so you can simply enjoy the experience.
Reputation
Word-of-mouth referrals make up 3/4 of new families to the studio. I take to heart the honor and responsibility to live up to that trust.

After getting in touch, we'll chat about the details and get you officially booked. A $200 payment is made to reserve your chosen date and the paperwork signed- everything is conducted online and is as easy as can be. And just like that, you're on the calendar!
Next, we'll set up a time for our consultation. Ideally, I love to have you come by the studio so we can meet in person, plan our session, try on the wardrobe, and get to know each other. But if you're limited on free time then we can chat over the phone and do all of our planning via email.
Studio sessions take place in my natural-light East Anchorage studio. Our time is relaxed, with a play area for siblings, snacks and drinks, and a full studio wardrobe, taking all the guesswork out of what to wear. Outdoor sessions can take place in one of my favorite Palmer or Anchorage locations during the golden sunrise and sunset hours. Or if you have a special spot in mind, I'm always up for an adventure!
About two weeks after our session you're invited back to the Studio for our Gallery Reveal. I'm a big believer in the tangible and making your images accessible. Every collection includes the must-have digital files and each product is designed to be simple with ready-to-hang artwork and custom heirloom albums.

Amazing photos! Awesome experience. Megan made me so comfortable with her calm spirit. The sessions were fun. And the pictures are priceless. I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else for pictures.
