About My Story
Hello! My name is Melissa and I am a Maternity, Birth, Newborn, Milestone and Family photographer located out of Foley, Minnesota.
I am blessed to be the mother of 4 children, 2 boys and 2 girls, and a wife to an amazing husband! I love being a mommy! They are my pride and joy!
Some of my hobbies are camping, spending time at the beach and hanging out with my family every chance we get!
To be honest, I never imagined becoming a professional photographer. Growing up my plan was to always become a Nurse in the hospital nursery or open my own daycare. I did fulfill the daycare dream for about 10 years. 9 years ago our first beautiful daughter joined our family, after 2 boys! It was then when my love for photography really begin to shine! I had always taken lots of photos as I believe photos are very important and help people remember lifes events. But when she was born I was over joyed with all the girly stuff and found myself constantly dressing her up and doing little mini shoots. About a year in and I felt the urge to expand and turn my love for photography into more!
I would love to capture the most important moments of your life and create artistic heirlooms that you will cherish for years to come. I look forward to hearing from you and documenting YOUR story!
Melissa
