About

Hey there! I'm Mel. I’m a full-time wedding photographer currently based out of a little town in the middle of the mountains of Western Maryland. I have a serious case of wanderlust, an obsession with castles, all dogs, Game of Thrones, and pretty much anything that takes me outside. I’ve been photographing weddings & elopements for over five years now, and I’m madly in love with it! Nothings inspires me more than two people who make each other laugh, and decide that they want to keep doing it for the rest of their life!

Talented photographer, wonderful human.

Mel is a wonderful human and absolutely talented photographer. We booked Mel originally for our December 2020 wedding, which eventually turned into a December 2021 wedding due to the pandemic. Mel handled the change with ease and was so easy to work with.

Our engagement photos were on what I can only describe as the coldest, windiest day in 2021, but she made it look like we were warm as can be and just happy to be there. On our wedding day, she kept all the formal photos of the wedding party and family moving like a well-oiled machine, and all our guests who saw her and her second shooter throughout the night commented on how happy they looked to be capturing photos of our day.

Mel sent us some awesome sneak peek photos while we were on our minimoon, and we can't wait to get the rest of the album! We know that any prints we buy are going to look awesome. I highly recommend hiring Mel for your wedding or other photographer needs!

Melissa is the absolute best!

We used Farfalla for our engagement/ wedding photos back in February '19 and October! One of the best things that she does is include an engagement session in the wedding packages. I love that the engagement session gives you a chance to comfortable with your photographer and also see just how awesome her style is going to be for your wedding photos. Our engagement session was on a cold windy day and Melissa totally rocked by making sure we were all still having fun! She has such a bubbly personality it feels like you've known her forever which makes you so relaxed on the big day! She also pays attention to the little details that leave a lasting impact (our USB with our photos we is stunning!). Overall, I 100% reccomend Farfalla Photography to everyone looking for a photographer that makes you feel beautiful and relaxed!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
