When you think about getting pictures with you and your man, are you thinking things like:
“What do I do with my hands?”
“Do I look at the camera, each other, outer space?”
“I’m so awkward!”
“He’s so awkward!”
“We’re. going. to. look. so. awkward!”
STOP.RIGHT.THERE.
What if I told you it wasn’t about knowing what to do with your hands, but more about you guys having a relaxing date night having fun with each other? And lucky for you, I know exactly how to give you just that.
Once you show up to the shoot, I have an entire list of ideas ready to go that I customize to you and your boo. These ideas will help keep things relaxed, fun and are guaranteed to help even the most introverted human being feel totally comfortable in front of the camera
I am not a ‘one size fits all’ prompts kind of gal. Once you book, I schedule a quick video chat to get to know my couple prior to even starting our shoot. That way I can prioritize making you both feel completely comfortable with prompts and actions that you will actually enjoy!
I am super confident I can capture you and your man the way YOU envision (and make sure you have a blast doing it!) There’s so much more to a couple’s session than standing in front of the camera and smiling.
It’s meant to be FUN and filled with CONNECTION! I want BOTH of you to leave the session feeling like it was a memorable date night getting to do something different together other than watching Parks & Rec or The Office. My camera and I will just happen to be there ;) I promise I’ll be the best third wheel you’ve ever had!
Ps. Parks & Rec is superior. I will be taking no questions at this time.
We won’t be taking pictures the entire time! Yep! You heard me. If I tried to snap pictures every second of our time together, there would be no opportunity to actually CONNECT with each other which is the ENTIRE goal for the evening. So get ready to relax in a beautiful location where the entire evening is focused on me celebrating the love you share together.

“She’s so kind and such joy to be around!”
“My husband and I enjoyed our session with Melissa so much! Having pictures taken can be awkward and nerve racking, but everything was very relaxed and fun. She’s so kind and such joy to be around, not to mention our pictures turned out amazing!”
