About

Los Angeles Wedding / Elopement Photographer

Getting to know my couples is the most important to me. If you’re looking for a photographer to just get the typical “smile at the camera”, super posed photos, I might not be your girl. I use photography to tell the narrative of your wedding day. For years to come, I want you to look back at your photos and feel the same emotions you did on the day of your wedding. I want to be more than just the photographer at your wedding, I want to be your friend and get to know who you are. I’m all about having genuine connections with my couples, so then on your wedding day I can capture your true personalities and tell the unique story of your love.

Me: people usually say that I’m “shorter than they expected” or ask if I’m old enough to be photographing a wedding | I’m 27 | almost always sarcastic | I’m more reserved until I know you…then the real me will come out | I live in the moment, never take anything for granted | I love hard • my husband Parker | my bichon-poo, Penny | long walks | paint by numbers | puzzles | surfing | bonfires in the fall | fireplace on, snow falling | new white shoes | uninterrupted family time | spooning | rubbing my face with no makeup on | clean countertops | lazy Saturdays | sushi | freshly washed sheets

YOU: I am your third wheel & your emotion support human | I’m basically just another bridesmaid - I’m there for anything you need | more than just a photographer | I promise you won’t feel awkward | I capture moments that will give you the same emotions when you look back at them years later | small moments | quiet moments | the story of you.

Melanie is a true gem!

Melanie was so wonderful to work with and we are very grateful that we found her in the crowded NYC market of wedding photographers. In addition to providing us with excellent photos, she was very flexible and fair in her pricing to help us stay within our budget. Prior to our engagement shoot and wedding, Melanie worked closely with us to learn about our stylistic preferences and she was great at providing plenty of direction throughout the shoots to make sure our images looked natural. I definitely recommend Melanie and I would use her again in a heartbeat. We will cherish our photos for many years to come!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
