Artist Bio
Mel started her photography journey in elementary school. Even from that young age, she had the overwhelming need to not only consume stories but to produce them by freezing them forever in a single frame.
Throughout her life, she placed me in jobs that kept the camera and stories close - marketing, advertising, teaching journalism & English, and finally just going all in as a full-time photographer.
She is inspired by bold color and light, nostalgia, nature, and childhood.
Her work has been featured in multiple gallery shows and publications.
