Hi There, I’m Melissa!

The photographer behind the lens.
I’m a family and lifestyle photographer based in Strathroy. As a mom of two and a seasoned early childhood educator, I understand how to connect with children to create a relaxed and comfortable environment during your session.
I’m beginning my journey as a professional photographer and dedicated to turning my passion for photography into a thriving photography business that captures meaningful moments for families.
Back in 1996, a summer to remember - I was only 10. With my first 35mm camera, I took a photo of an elk on the side of the road with the Rocky Mountains in the background. I meant to take a "normaI" size picture. Later realizing I had my camera settings set to panoramic. Oops! - My parents loved it so much, that it we had it enlarged for my moms 50th. I believe that photo was my calling and was told I had a great eye for photography. I have been "shutter - happy" ever since.
What sets me apart? I believe that photography comes with patience and connection. I take time to understand my clients so that I can capture their personality.
I have compiled my photos together - both past and present for viewing. Currently, I am focusing on family photography and mini sessions. I am looking to build my portfolio and welcome any opportunity that comes along. I would love to work with you to capture your life's moments.
