Hello, I'm Melissa
Your Couples, Maternity & Elopement Photographer
I'm so glad your here! I am a 23-year old coffee-loving photographer based in South West Florida. Growing up in a Cuban-American household with three older brothers, I learned the value of independence and creativity. From a young age, I found solace and joy in exploring different hobbies, but it was photography that truly captured my heart.
Style & Approach
My style is all about capturing what's real and making it feel like a dream. I love keeping colors natural -- true to the moment but gently enhancing them to bring out the beauty that's already there. Think creamy, soft tones that feel like a warm memory you never want to forget. I'm endlessly inspired by the golden glow of sunsets, the calming blues of the beach, and the rich greens tucked away in the Florida parks. There's just something magical about photographing people in the middle of God's creation that no studio could ever replace.
Faith & Community
My faith is at the core of everything I do. I truly believe that when we put God first, everything else falls into place. It's through my faith that I found the strength to turn the desires in my heart into a business. I put my whole entire heart into my business, my family, and everything I do is with intentionality. I'm dedicated to serving the Hispanic community, speaking both English and Spanish to ensure all stories are heard and celebrated.
Building meaningful Connections
Photography, for me, has always been about connection. I love getting to know the people in front of my camera and making them comfortable whether it's your first time or 5th. I want it to feel authentic and like you can truly feel like yourselve's. When clients come back to me for more sessions whether that's an engagement, anniversary, growing families or any milestone, it means the world to me. It feels like I get to witness and be a part of your story.
