Just a mom looking at these photos thinking, how did I get so lucky?
Nine years into motherhood and I still don’t always know what I’m doing 👀 but one thing I do know for sure is being Riley’s mom is the greatest blessing and the best thing that’s ever happened to me 🥺
To Riley — thank you for growing with me, loving me, teaching me patience, and making life so much sweeter.
To my husband — thank you for loving me through every version of motherhood, for being my best friend and my person for the past 11 years. I’m endlessly grateful for you, for us, and for the life we’re building together. My favourite thing will always be growing old with you xx
And to our second baby Charlie, thank for your unconditional love, for keeping life chaotic, loud, and permanently covered in dog hair 🐾
Thank you for making me a mama, for loving me through every season, and for giving me this beautiful little life 💛

Hi, I’m Melinda 🙋🏻♀️ I just wanted to pop in, say hello, and introduce myself to those of you I have yet to meet.
🌿 When I’m not in wedding season or doing family sessions, you can usually find me enjoying the great outdoors with my dog, Nacho. I love being in nature, and while I may not post on here all the time (sorry!), I’m always behind a camera in some form, capturing moments.
📸 Recently, I added a drone to my list of toys, so I’ve been having fun practicing my flying skills and learning how to be my own photographer… lol ✨
If you’re new here, welcome 💛 Feel free to say hi or stick around; I love connecting with the people behind the stories I get to capture.
They are here for a part of your life but you are a part of their WHOLE life. Sometimes fur-family doesn’t always get to join the photo shoots but let me tell you…you will never regret having them be a part of the family photoshoot 💛 🐾
