The heart behind the camera

Hi, I’m Mel! A Perth-based photographer, mum of two, and the person behind the lens capturing families through some of life’s most meaningful moments.

From pregnancy and those fleeting newborn days to the beautiful chaos of family life, I know just how quickly time moves. One moment you are in the thick of it, and the next you are wondering where the years have gone. That is what draws me to photography. The chance to slow things down and preserve the moments that matter most.

My sessions are calm, relaxed and gently guided, creating space for genuine connection, emotion and natural interaction to unfold effortlessly. With over 14 years of experience, my priority has always been creating an experience where families feel comfortable, cared for and completely at ease.

Over the years, my style has evolved into something more refined and emotive, focusing not only on how these moments looked, but how they felt. The connection, the softness, the quiet in-between moments, and the beauty in simply being together.

When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll usually find me doing something creative, walking our Family dog, or being a full-time mum taxi driving between school runs, soccer training, and everyday family life. I’ve always loved art, painting, creativity, and finding beauty in the little moments. I think that naturally flows into the way I photograph families.

I don’t just create photographs for today. I create meaningful artwork designed to become part of your family’s story for years to come.

Love Letters
What a morning we had!! Mel is simply amazing. This is our first baby and first time we have ever had a photographer take photos of my partner and I but when I say Mel went above and beyond for us she really did. From the way she interacted with Aurora to the time she took even giving bub her bottle when needed. She makes you feel comfortable and at ease. Would and will be recommending Mel to everyone.
