Wedding, elopement, & lifestyle photographer

Welcome,

I'm Melissa. Full-time photographer, dog mama, and pursuer of the best version of myself.

Life is more than a carefully composed social media profile and I believe that the best stories are those that exude authenticity. That is why I'm passionate about photographing elopements, weddings and lifestyle portraits that tell the whole story, not just a perfectly curated one. Life is full of ups, downs, messes, & hardships - I'm here to help you see the beauty in what it means to be human.

You captured me so well! I never thought I was photogenic. Thanks for making me look fabulous!

Conserving the natural beauty that surrounds all of us is a huge mission of mine. I follow Leave No Trace principles and strive to minimize my impact on the daily. I spent many years as a naturalist prior to becoming a photographer, so I'm always down to talk about our beautiful natural surroundings during our time together in hopes that we can all learn how to better care for our earth.

Photographs that truly speak to your heart.

Whether it's an adventure elopement, a couples session, or a candid family moment, I'm all about capturing that real-real in a documentary style. When you see your photos for the first time, I want you to feel at home. Every person has a story to tell, allow me to tell yours.
