Branding

Whether you're a yoga teacher, florist, maker, or creative entrepeneur, your brand deserves photos that show the heart behind your work. 

Your business isn't just a product or service- it's you. My branding sessions are designed to go deeper than just headshots. I want to help capture your story, process and personality in a way that feels natural, intentional, and visually consistent with your brand.

Whether you're refreshing your website, launching a new offer to the world, or just need content that reflects your growth, I'm here to help you show up confidently, without the overwhelm.

"She makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera!"

"If you want lasting memories caught on film, Melissa is your girl! She is an amazing photographer who makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera! I usually feel very awkward having my photo taken, but with her I did not! Melissa snapped gorgeous photos of me, my boyfriend and our one year old son. It got me excited for future shoots! Thank you so much for the beautiful photos you captured of our family!!" -Celeste B.

"I always leave shoots with her feeling more confident in my own skin and energized by the creative energy she instills." 

"Melissa is a passionate and talented photographer. I always leave shoots with her feeling more confident in my own skin and energized by the creative energy she instills. She always makes me feel really comfortable in front of the camera and has a nice way of interacting with you throughout the shoot so that it feels more like you're hanging out with a friend and gives gentle directions that can make a world of difference in the final product. She is completely devoted to getting you the pictures you envision and has the ability to help you with a vision if need be. I highly suggest her for all your photography needs!" -Maddy C.

"I really can't say enough good things about how these photos came out.

MeliRae did a truly incredible job and I will treasure these photos forever. Her attention to lighting and detail is exceptional. She made us feel very comfortable and we were able to flow through our morning activities despite a camera being around. She is truly an amazing artist and we are so grateful to have had her capture this special day for us. -Sydney M.
