Traveling has been a passion of mine since I got my first passport at 6 months old (no joke!) I sat on my moms lap and made gaga sounds at the photographer. I started traveling alone at age 6 to visit my Aunt in Missouri every Summer. I haven't stopped since. Where I go, my camera follows. I love experiencing new places and capturing each one in my own way.
I’m seriously smitten with the photos from Eric + Ashley’s Pacific Northwest wedding! I’ve know Ashley for a few years since she is the cousin of my best friend. We first met as bridesmaids in a wedding! When she got engaged, I jumped on the chance to shoot her wedding! They are based in Portland and opted to have their wedding on the Columbia Gorge, the Washington side with a killer view of Mt Hood! The PNW has a special place in my heart since most of my family is located in this area!
Oh and this wedding was featured on Oh Lovely Day today! Woo!
Shout out to my awesome assistant Deann who shot many of the details – you rock!

Yay yay yay! What a beautiful wedding…. you’ve done it again, Melissa! Amazing photos! 🙂
WOW! Incredible photos. I almost feel as if I was there!
Things I LOVE about this: the views, the photo of them in the separate windows, the field of flowers, the ceremony view through the window, escort card display and your amazing talent to create beautiful images!
What an amazing venue for a wedding! You captured the beauty of the day so well! The picture of them that’s not a first look is incredible!
