Your go-to, Atlanta-based photographer for all things lifestyle and brand

Sometimes, we don’t even realize how beautiful, real, and raw an event was until after the fact, when we witness it captured in an image. When you encapsulate a moment in time with the help of a professional photographer, you get the opportunity to relive that moment over and over again.

Over the course of my 9 years as an Atlanta-based photographer, I’ve had the pleasure of working with families, entrepreneurs, small businesses, and creative professionals. From the hum-drum of everyday life to the once in a lifetime mind-blowing moments, I’ve captured it all.

    Melle is a dream to work with! She managed to capture some beautiful family photos, even with our two very active and easily distracted little boys in the mix. We will definitely be using her again for our photo needs!
