Wedding and Portrait Photographer in Nantucket and Cape Cod

Hello! I’m Melissa! I'm a

Meet Melissa

Nantucket, MA & Cape Cod Wedding + Portrait Photographer

I truly believe that New England is the most beautiful place to live, and the best place to raise a family. It is breathtaking to me, and it has my heart. 

Inspired by the beauty of my home and the love of my family, I spend my days capturing the kinds of images that make you stop, smile and ask time to please slow down. 

Your story is beautiful and I can’t wait to capture it in images you will treasure for years to come. I believe in real moments and heartfelt conversations on the front porch. In the kinds of images that remind you of the joy that can be found in the simplest of moments together.

Melissa made us both feel so at ease and comfortable during our session, and you can see that in our photos...  Her photos are absolutely classic, she works to find the most beautiful light. We will treasure these forever. Thank you Melissa for being part of our special day.

Melissa is an absolute bright light, and overall joy!

She has a gentle calmness about her in the busyness and sometimes chaos of what comes with a wedding. The photos are absolutely beautiful and I already have many of them framed throughout my house. I highly recommend hiring Melissa to capture your special day's moments. She is worth every cent!

She did an absolutely beautiful job with capturing every special moment...

Melissa is not only a great photographer but now grown into the sweetest friend! Not only does she share in your excitement of all your life moments, but she goes out of her way to capture them perfectly! She traveled to Nantucket for our 1 year shoot and galavanted all over the island with us just because that's where we were going for our anniversary trip. 

You will not be disappointed when you hire Melissa...
