Hi, I’m Melissa.

When you book a family session with me, you’re getting a fellow parent with twenty years of professional experience as a storyteller. I equally understand how to beautifully tell your story as a family, and what it’s like when the house is a mess and the kids are having meltdowns.

When you take a photography course from me, you’re learning from someone who believes that EVERYONE has the capacity to make meaningful photos. It’s with this premise that I teach parents how to take their best photos yet, so you can make the most of the time you spend taking pictures.

When you choose to trust me to tell your story, you’re choosing a highly qualified photographer with a Master of Fine Arts in Media Arts Production and professional background as a video producer and editor, and writer. I understand how to connect by capturing the feeling of a moment with each image.

When you book with me, I create art out of real life, unscripted.
