Through years of photographing I’ve learned that the more we connect, the more relaxed you’ll feel, which makes for powerful photos that will still resonate with you years from now.
I help design & plan your session better when I learn all about you & the things you love. I want to hear about all of your branding details, view all your Pinterest & vision boards, hear about your dream maternity shoot, the coffee shop you met your partner at (and where you would like your engagement photos), or to be welcomed into your home.
let’s bring your vision to life.
BRanding
No two brands are the same which is why we believe in building branding sessions fully curated for your brand identity. From custom sets to unique headshots we want you (and everyone else) to look at your images and say “wow that’s so on brand”. We want you to have clear, concise, brand imagery and welcome clients to work with us at their location of choice or in our studio space in Pinehurst, North Carolina.
Boudoir
I get excited for every single client and there hasn’t been a single shoot that I’ve finished without a giant derpy smile on my face. It’s a complete honor to work with someone in such a fun and intimate way.
If you’ve been thinking about a boudoir shoot, I hope you reach out! I promise you won’t regret it!
Lifestyle
We’re honored to be capturing snippets of big moments in clients lives.
From engagements, maternity, family, in-home sessions, we do it all here and make sure to tailor the experience entirely to your needs. Each session will be created specifically for you and will leave you tangible reminders of memories to treasure.
CREATIVE SESSIONS
Do you have an idea not listed above? Send us an email, and we’ll bring your vision to life!
Do you provide styling help?
Yes! We have Pinterest style guides, as well as links for places to shop. We encourage you to reach out to us to help with outfit, props, or other styling choices.
Do you help with posing?
We’re pretty shy in front of the camera…
Yes! You do not have to be a model to look like one on camera. We’re here to help direct you into poses that feel comfortable, look editorial or candid, and make you feel great.
FEEL THE LOVE
I don’t ever want to hire another photographer again. Melissa is the perfect combination of professional and whimsical. She lets her personality shine in her session, making you feel incredibly comfortable. We loved her so much we had to have her for the birth of our daughter, newborn and Christmas minis!! If you’re on the fence – jump over it!!!! Melissa is amazing!! Couldn’t recommend her more.
