I'm melissa

Lead Photographer

I laugh just like my mom and sister and occasionally snort when I laugh really hard. I’m married to my high school sweetheart and he makes me incredibly happy. My son amazes me daily with his brilliance, I adore my dog way too much, and I love making people feel beautiful because I know what it’s like to not feel beautiful…

“Melissa was a fantastic wedding photographer! She listened to our vision for our wedding and really displayed that through the photos she took. My husband and I don't really enjoy taking photos, but Melissa made them fun and enjoyable for us! She did a wonderful job and we recommend her for any occasion you need.”
