Collections

Let's build your family the perfect collection that captures all the moments you just can't live without. That first year comes with so many changes, lots of appointments, some (or many) sleepless nights, and a whole bunch of joy! You know you want to document as many new phases as possible but, let's be real, it can be so hard to do as you juggle everything on your plate.  

Booking a session collection right from the start is designed to take the stress away from remembering if or when to schedule your next session. Once you pick which collection you'd like, I'll provide that gentle reminder when it's time to get your baby scheduled for their next session, dress your family from the client closet, and make sure your artwork gets printed so all you have to do is enjoy the memories.

The Maternity & Newborn Collection provides two sessions to document the start of your baby's journey.  The First Year Collection follows baby throughout that first year for a maternity, newborn, 6 month milestone, and one year milestone session.  Each collection comes with their own perks such as artwork credit, complimentary birth announcements and prints, and even discounts on additional sessions that can be added to customize your collection.

You won't believe how much your little one has grown by year one!  Celebrate with a family session followed by a complimentary cake smash session.

One YEar Milestone + Cake Smash

Babies change so quickly! I recommend capturing their mannerisms and developmental milestones around the 6 month mark at a minimum.

6 Month Milestone

Once baby arrives, we'll document all their sweet little features along with snuggles with mom, dad, and siblings.

Newborn

Captured around 30 weeks of pregnancy, this session features mama and her growing bump, but the whole family is welcome to join too!

Birth Announcements & Heirloom Art

Forget stressing over how to display your session images and let me design your 

Birth announcements    -    Heirloom Albums    -    Framed Prints    -    Portfolio Boxes

Your experience is not yet finished once you leave your session.  When your hand-edited digital images are delivered through your online gallery, you'll also receive a custom designed album layout and over 30 personalized birth announcements.  All you need to do is sign off on the design and I'll make sure everything gets printed and is ready to enjoy!  Each session receives artwork credit as part of their session fees.  First Year Collections enjoy even more perks including additional artwork credit, 25 complimentary birth announcements, and a complimentary portfolio box.

A welcoming space to relax and enjoy the experience.

A Peek Inside the Studio

welcoming    -    bright    -    classic

Located on the second floor of the beautiful Lotus House of Mint Hill, NC, my clients are able to enjoy the comforts of home while mom tends to their newborn and dad lets big siblings get all their crazies out before (or during!) the session.  The studio is located conveniently just 1 mile from I-485 Exit 43.

Sessions may also be held in your home or at one of my favorite outdoor locations around greater Charlotte.

"Melissa was fantastic. We had newborn and family photos taken in a beautiful natural light studio. Melissa is great to work with and her work is 12/10! She managed a fussy baby and a toddler who was … “toddlering” to say the least, haha - and our pictures came out amazing!! We can’t wait to work with her again for more family pictures! Can’t recommend enough - communication, professionalism, and her work"

"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."

She was so kind and bubbly during our session, I love that she guided us into poses that were comfortable and then let us giggle and interact so the photos were authentically “us”. I’m forever thankful for these moments now frozen in time thanks to Melissa!"

She helps make the entire process so seamless from recommendations on how to prepare for the session, to being comfortable in front of the camera, and above all gets my stoic little one to actually smile.
