Marriage & Motherhood
Hey girl! I see you scrolling through Instagram trying to find the perfect photographer. From your dream wedding day to bringing your new baby home from the hospital, you want it all beautifully captured so you can see your life’s greatest love stories unfold before your eyes. You want to smile at your wedding portrait each morning when you both jump out of bed and start to get ready for the day. You want to point out how much your little one has grown as you carry them up the stairs for their bath at night. You want those memories safeguarded, and you want them all. I get it.
The thought of one day forgetting those fleeting moments and all the small details is overwhelming. Wedding days go by in a blink of an eye and babies grow up much too fast. But, your photos do last a lifetime. Your photography investment is a promise towards preserving your family’s legacy and making your heart happy in the process.

Hi, I’m Melissa! You can find me picking up my pink drink with an infant car seat under one arm and my toddler’s little hand wrapped up with the other. I’m probably wearing a pair of Rothy’s and I most definitely am in a dress. (Easiest mom hack out there, am I right?)
I want to remember every moment of this beautifully chaotic life I live and I’m passionate about helping you do the same. I’ll lead you every step of the way, from an effortless planning process to designing the pages of your heirloom album, so that the visual proof of your family’s connection shines brightly in your home.

"Melissa creates magic. She has captured the most special moments of my family’s life. I would never hesitate to recommend her to anyone who wants a true professional to create a customized photography experience. Melissa is fast to respond, patient and goes the extra yard to ensure you have the best experience. Not to mention she was beyond kind to our little ones during the entire shoot. They loved her! We can't wait for our next shoot with her."
