Hi there! I am Melissa. I live in Macomb Michigan with my sweet lil family. I am so happy you're here!

​

With a 20-year background in the creative field, my path to family photography has been shaped by many influences. I’ve always had a passion for documenting my children’s moments, often being the one behind the camera. Growing up, I found inspiration in art, which led me to pursue a degree in Graphic Design at the College for Creative Studies. I graduated with high honors and was named “Senior of the Year,” a recognition that remains one of my proudest accomplishments.

 

In my career as a Graphic Design Lead and Art Director, I’ve had the privilege of working on high-profile projects for renowned clients such as Stellantis, Uconnect, Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep, Arts, Beats & Eats, the Detroit Institute of Arts, Kid Rock, Eminem, Union Joints Restaurants, Carhartt and more. These experiences, alongside collaborating with talented photographers on large-scale photo shoots, taught me invaluable lessons in lighting and composition.

 

Today, I still work full-time as a Graphic Design Lead, but photography is a hobby and a passion that I want to grow even more. As a self-taught family photographer, I bring a unique perspective to my work. I specialize in capturing candid, natural moments—whether with families, babies, kids, or seniors—and my goal is to turn beautiful moments into lasting memories you'll cherish forever.
