The messy,
tender, fleeting
bits you'll want to keep.
I'm Mel and for ten years I've been photographing families. At home and outdoors.
Less smile for the camera,
more be with each other.
Life. As it is right now.

Hello, I'm Mel
This all started with one too many glasses of red and a round-the-world ticket.
Back in 2017 I booked a six month trip on a whim, handed in my notice and bought a new camera which turned into the love of my life.
Since then I've photographed families from the first bump right through to baby number five. I'm quietly obsessed with light, I'm a bit of a baby whisperer and what I love most is the raw, beautiful chaos of this season of your life.
When I'm not shooting, I'm pottering about at my Suffolk cottage or out walking somewhere in the trees.
