Motherhood sessions, from maternity to newborn and lifestyle shoots, capture the precious moments of your journey as a mom. These photos are an invaluable way to preserve the beauty, love, and raw emotion of your bond with your little ones.

I WANT TO WORK WITH YOU!

Mommas that book with me are finally getting the chance to be in front of the camera, they finally get to be in a beautiful photo with their sweet kiddos.

mothers deserve to have pictures with their babies.

Embracing the beauty of motherhood

I focus on capturing the beautiful, tender moments of motherhood and your little one’s first milestones—those tiny baby toes, the soft scent of a newborn,  all of the energy of a toddler, the cleverness of your not quite teenage and truly just the pure joy of watching your baby grow. I believe these moments are too precious not to document, and I’m here to help preserve these memories so you can cherish them forever.

We decided to get married in Cancun and there was no one else we would have wanted to come and take pictures of our big day and party with us. We had the best week ever and having the best photographer is just the cherry on top. We love Mel and are so grateful for her. I've looked through our gallery several times already and I could cry. I love our photos and I felt like I was right back in Mexico with my best friends marrying the man of my dreams.

We decided to get married in Cancun and there was no one else we would have wanted

Melissa has been my go to photographer for the last 5 years (from casual photos, to engagement photos, to our wedding photos!) and I cannot put into words how thankful I am for her capturing some of the most precious moments. Especially thankful for her on our wedding day, one of the most stressful days of my life and she made things SO smooth. Plus, she’s a girls girl and will ALWAYS make sure you look your absolute best in photos. A few photos from my wedding attached. The best human and the best photographer.

Mel is just PHENOMENAL to work with!! My husband and I have used her several times and could not sing her praise enough. She makes us feel so comfortable and relaxed and we get so many STUNNING photos that really capture our energy. She is our first recommendation to friends & family… everyone for that matter!

Mel is just phenomenal to work with

I absolutely love our photos and cannot wait until next year to shoot together again. Melissa is so great and it just felt so natural. She was so positive and made it so much fun for us, we felt so comfortable. I want to post them all, we can't stop looking at them! I always wanted pictures in my dream Pinterest outfit and Melissa made my Pinterest Board dreams come true!

Melissa made my Pinterest Dreams come true

Mel is hands down the most professional and kind hearted photographers I have ever worked with! It is truly like hanging out with a friend! She prioritizes making sure you feel comfortable during your shoot, and is the ultimate hype girl! She made me feel so confident, and the images are ones I will treasure for a lifetime. Mel is truly a gift, worth every penny. Could not recommend her enough!

she made me feel so confident

I have absolutely nothing but good things to say about Melissa. She has captured our most important life milestones, that I will cherish forever. She’s extremely detailed oriented, punctual, cares about what you genuinely want, but also has the most amazing way of capturing pictures (candids) when you least expect it! She truly has a gift for photography, wonderful ideas, and the only person I will ever use/trust for my photography needs! Highly recommend!
