Hi, I’m Melissa but you can call me Lissa. I first picked up my first camera in High School but it wasn't until I grew and built a family of my own that I truly saw the depth of it’s value. To photograph deep connection, sincere and vulnerable moments with those you love and keep them. Time is so very fleeting.

My focus is the realness. The precious & messy details that make up the everyday. I want ladybug fingers and windblown hair. I want you to SEE yourself. I want you to look at your gallery and FEEL what a force you are. What a force your children are.

I need you to show up. Be open. Let yourself play. With your children, your dress, your hair. Bring your handmaid blankets & comfortable shoes.

I got you.

- Lissa
