What my clients have to say...

Just wanted to say thanks again! We can not get over how beautiful all of the pictures turned out!

They (the moments captured) are everything we hoped they would be! I can't express how happy we are and how much we love the photos. You are truly amazing!



Patty & Nicholas

Bespoke Elopement, Hotel CalaLuna, Tulum, Mexico

We used Melissa for a couples shoot last fall. She is familiar with all of the great places to take shots on the beach and throughout PDC. Not only is she a great photographer, she is just a fun person to be around. She is very familiar with the area and was very flexible with her schedule to make sure mother nature cooperated. There were so many great photos it was very difficult to choose which ones we wanted. She is very creative and spontaneous with her shots. We highly recommend Melissa and look forward to another opportunity to capture memorable moments in PDC again!


Laura & Brian

Engagement Portraits, Playa del Carmen, Mexico

Amazing photos and amazing experience!! We got married in Cancun and we opted out the hotel photographer and picked Melissa, that was the best decision we've made! When you have a destination wedding, you nothing to bring back back by photos of your big day and Melissa is the best person to help you record those moments and memories!


Kelly & Desmond

Hyatt Ziva, Cancun Destination Wedding, RIviera Maya Mexico

We absolutely loved Melissa and her assistant. They captured all the perfect moments and also were so much fun to be around. I did a boudoir shoot before the wedding and they turned out amazing as well. The photo quality was amazing and I loved the lighting of all the the photos. I highly recommend her.


Leticia & Don

Villas del Palmar Destination Wedding, Cancun, RIviera Maya Mexico

Melissa made all of the arrangements for our small wedding in Mexico. She arranged a bus to transport our group to the location, an officiant, and a florist. She took amazing photographs. It was better than I ever could have imagined. Anyone planning to get married in this area of Mexico should definitely contact Melissa!!! I cannot day enough about how wonderful the experience was!!


Megan & Patrick

Corasol Bespoke Elopement Ceremony, Playa del Carmen, Mexico

Melissa is an incredible photographer AND a wonderful person. She was amazingly helpful all day during our wedding, and she was so personable and friendly that she fit into our wedding seamlessly! It felt like we had another friend there celebrating with us, which I think contributed to her getting the best shots possible because everyone was so comfortable with her. EVERY single guest had something great to say about her!! And that was even before they say the outcome of her work... now they love her AND are in awe of her talent! Thank you for helping us have the best day ever and creating breathtaking images from our trash the dress shoot! 💋 besos!


Chelsea & Tony

Dreams Sapphire Riviera Cancun Destination Wedding, Riviera Maya, Mexico

I have known Melissa for years and even had the chance to work side by side with her - when it was my time to say I do, I knew I wanted her to photograph our wedding day. She puts so much love and effort in everything she does, she's wonderful to be around and the most important thing, she is one of the kindest and sweetest persons I know (and yes, her laugh is contagious! Everyone loved her!) Thank you Melissa for being part of the best day of our lives! We will always treasure these memories!


Moni & Mars

Club House Marina Barracuda Wedding, Cancun, Mexico

Melissa was amazing and made everything super easy after we made the decision to elope. I was very nervous about taking the pics but she made it so much fun! Highly recommend Melissa! You won’t be disappointed!
