Hi, I'm Melissa

FEATURED WEDDINGS
Love stories I’ve documented
Welcome to my world of capturing love stories in the stunning backdrop of Queenstown, New Zealand. I'm all about that relaxed yet stylish blend of documentary and editorial photography—think of it as capturing your day in a way that's both real and effortlessly elegant.
Picture this: you and your love, cozied up on the couch with a glass of wine and your full wedding gallery to look back through and relive. Unfolding through a mix of digital sharpness and film magic, giving your photos that dreamy, nostalgic vibe that feels like a warm hug from the past, moments that you can look back and feel for the rest of time.
Whether you're planning a grand wedding bash or a secret elopement, your love story is truly one of a kind. And guess what? I'm all about celebrating that uniqueness! From your goofy inside jokes to the stolen glances that speak volumes, I'll capture it all in a way that's authentically you.
Because let's face it, love isn't one-size-fits-all, and neither should your photos be. Every shoot with me is a chance to create images that reflect your vibe, your connection, and your story together in a way that's effortless.

We hired Melissa to photograph our elopement in the Queenstown area. She went far beyond our expectations and we couldn't be happier with the results. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone in the area looking for a photographer. She played the role of photographer, coordinator, Uber driver, and friend. We had the best elopement day because of her.

CLAIRE & SAM
We were blown away by our wedding photos taken by Melissa. She truly captured the magic of our day. The thing we loved the most was her relaxed presence throughout the day. We were hardly aware that she was taking pictures which really put our wedding party and guests at ease. Melissa's photos were so beautiful, the local magazine snapped them up and made us the Wedding of the Week!! We can’t thank you enough Melissa xx
We just want to say a great big thank you to Melissa for going above, and beyond cannot express the level of work, she put into making our moment a dream come true. She was so supportive and made us feel so comfortable being in front of a camera as I’m quite camera shy so she really gave us great confidence and made it so enjoyable. We thoroughly enjoyed her presence and cannot agree enough that Melissa’s work is perfection. When we received our sneak peek photos. We were speechless, what a beautiful moment is was and every moment after she really made it so beautiful her Work is MAGIC

We were so lucky to have Melissa photograph our wedding. She was a dream to have around and managed to strike a perfect balance where the day never felt like it was interrupted for a photoshoot, yet she still managed to capture sooo many incredible shots. She went above and beyond for us and we are truly grateful for her energy, talent and generosity. It will be a pleasure to look at her photos for many years to come!
