Hi y'all! I'm Mel.
I'm a mama, wife, and photographer. I understand firsthand how fleeting these once in a lifetime moments are, and the importance of how they should be remembered. My approach is always creating an environment where wedding days can feel authentic + less posed for a camera. I focus on documenting the raw emotions of your day, and being the person you know you can be yourself around. I look forward to documenting more moments that feel like you + your people and less like the algorithm tells you your day should look. 

If connection over perfection is how you want to remember your day, I'm your photographer.
