hello there!

How I tell your story. . .

With a keen eye for detail and a love for capturing authentic moments, I specialize in Wedding and High School Senior photography.

I believe it's a privilege to help you preserve your cherished memories through my lens. My goal is to capture you just as you are, whether you're traditional or non-traditional, because your story is unique and shouldn't look like everyone else's.

Every session is an experience unique to you. I want to know what you're all about and how we can best capture that. I want to photograph you in a location that feels like home to you or represents something about your story. The more I know about you - the more I can capture YOU instead of just a pretty picture. Let's work together to create timeless images that tell your unique story.

It's the moments between the moments that create the magic for me!

The word on the street . . .

"We were thrilled with the entire process, from the initial consultation to the final prints. Melisa truly captured every detail of who we are as a couple."

A Magical Winter Day at Fort Derick

I had the absolute joy of photographing Emily and Tyler's engagement session at the picturesque Fort Derick in Frederick, MD. This spot holds a special place in their hearts as it was where they had their very first date. Tyler took Emily fishing (how cute is that?), and even though the weather was freezing and snowing lightly, their love and determination warmed up the entire session.
