I'M MELISSA. PHOTOGRAPHER, WIFE, AND MAMA TO TWO

Meet your new photographer BFF...

You're here for a reason, and I hope you feel a connection to my work, style, and approach and are looking to document yourself and your loved ones in a similar way. Storytelling sessions are focused on capturing the love and connection you share in a fun and laid-back approach.

We will play games, snuggle, laugh, and I keep things moving at a pace that mirrors your family's energy. I am not here to make you say "cheese!" mold you into stiff, awkward poses, or stop your children from being themselves. Lifestyle family photography sessions are all about telling your story while making lasting memories.

what our photoshoots are like...

You will find that my work may not be the cheapest nor the most expensive, but it represents the best value. With over five years of experience, a perfect review record on Google, you can invest confidently, knowing your money will be well spent. You won't regret capturing your family just as they are today as the years fly by and your babies grow up.

I want you to have fun and enjoy the time with your family as we create memories. That is why I help with everything from beginning to end. Between planning, one on one styling for the whole family, creating a memorable experience during our session and ending our time together with a beautiful digital gallery and heirloom artwork for your home.
