Meg Burke Photography

What Meg Burke Photography does

Meg Burke Photography is a sole-proprietor wedding and portrait photography business founded in 2011, currently operated by founder Meg Burke out of Mobile, AL with a historical base in Pensacola, FL. The business serves individual consumers and couples primarily across the Gulf Coast Alabama and Florida region, with documented destination bookings spanning Boston to Miami, Lake Tahoe, and Jamaica. Core services include wedding day photography, engagement sessions, family and individual portrait sessions, and curated portfolio lookbooks across these three categories. The underlying product is delivered as a custom one-time service: clients inquire via the website, receive a custom quote, and receive edited images at the conclusion of the session, with no disclosed subscription or recurring revenue model. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly listed, and the entire client experience — from initial inquiry through final delivery — is handled personally by Meg Burke, distinguishing the offering from larger studios that may rotate photographers. The business has a co-branded partnership with Milestones Studios operating as 'Miles & Burke' to offer integrated videography packages, and the founder has publicly announced plans to extend into brand and corporate photography in 2026. Revenue, headcount, and unit economics are not disclosed; the business operates without external funding as a bootstrapped sole proprietorship.
