Hello I’m Mel- A Documentary Wedding & Family Photographer

Hello my name is Mel or Melissa and I’m going to be honest…

Writing this section of my website has been interesting. It’s forced me to look into my soul and ask myself… who am I?

I recently have been diagnosed formally with ADHD (yes neurospicy community!) and it made me realize how much of a mask I have been wearing for the last 15+ years to prevent myself from being vulnerable about who I am in fear of rejection and disconnection. Well after my diagnosis I said NO MORE! I now choose to celebrating and honour the connections I have with people by being my most honest, unfiltered, adventurous, joyful and quirky self. If you want to read more about this discovery head over to my blog!

My goal when I photograph you for your Wedding, Family or Soul Dog session is to create an environment where you feel like you can be PRESENT, safe to diverge from the norm, connected to loved ones, and never afraid of a bit of adventure and surprises! Im here to help you embrace life’s beautiful imperfections. In each imperfection I instead see a gift to be shared and memory to cherish.
