photos that are captured with warmth and intentionality, photos that are full of life, photos that notice the details and in-between, photos that paint a picture of what it felt like…
Photos that feel like you
Imagery rooted in presence that is…
Thoughtful, True to Life, and Full of Feeling
capturing your day as it’s lived so you can be present to what matters most.
More genuine than staged
Photos that feel less like something staged and more like something truly lived. That feel natural and full of meaning. That feel like years of collecting all your favourite things, treasured and uniquely beautiful in their own way that come together to tell a story. Photos that transport you back to relive the moments you were fully present to with the people you love most.
Being a documentary photographer with an editorial eye, the most important part of my job is creating a space where you feel like you can be yourselves.
I believe YOU inspire the vision and the work, which serves as the guiding force and foundation for how your unique story is told and captured. There’s no moment too big or too small, they are all worth documenting!
Don’t worry, throughout the process I will guide you, direct you, and avoid anything the feels awkward and unnatural.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Hey there,
it’s Melissa
Based in Hamilton ON photographing Ontario and beyond, I am a full time photographer capturing weddings, families, couples and everything in between.
I love capturing life as it’s happening, the big life changing moments and the everyday in-between moments!
