About Melinda

Hi! My name is Melinda, and I am a wife and mother of 3. Before starting a business, I worked full- time as an Ultrasound Technologist. I started photography as an outlet to find myself once motherhood was the only thing I could identify with. What started as a hobby instantly grew to a newly uncovered passion! I began specializing in family because that was the most natural for me. That eventually evolved into newborn and maternity. This was an easy transition since I could so easily relate to moms and had personal and professional experience with newborns. They say you never work a day in your life if you are doing something you love, but I think it has made me want to work harder! I am constantly striving for greatness and growth, and I love to be inspired. I also love to learn and discover new ways to elevate the experience I provide for my clients.

While being a successful photographer and business owner is my dream, my family and faith are the motivating drive behind it all! They are the "why" and support that makes me push myself to never give up.

FAVORITE PASTIME OR HOBBY

My favorite thing to do is spend time with my family. I love playing board games together, singing and dancing in the kitchen and getting outdoors with them. Watching our kids get excited and experience new things makes me so happy. For me, it's seeing the pure joy on their face!

I do a really great Mickey Mouse impression! Funny thing is, my childhood nickname is Minnie!
