welcome
My name is Mel, short for Meltem, which means “the breeze”—cool, right? How fitting for a woman who grew up on the Mediterranean! I’ve been photographing raw connection, love, laughter, and everything in between for 3 years. My work is all about capturing the essence of YOU and your story as it unfolds in front of my camera. Every session is special to me. It’s beautiful, it’s messy, and it’s totally one-of-a-kind. I’m passionate about capturing every part of it.
This passion drives my distinctive style, where I focus on connection and comfort to create imagery that not only stands out but also speaks to the heart. It’s this approach that leaves my clients excited and eager for the next session, knowing they’ll receive something truly meaningful.

MY ART
My art captures intimate, emotive moments with a warm, cinematic style. I excel in highlighting genuine connections, and using natural light to create timeless and evocative images. Each photograph I take is more than just a picture; it’s a piece of INTENTIONAL ART.
My editing process is where my vision truly shines. By enhancing the natural beauty and emotion already present in my shots, I bring out the depth and richness in each scene. I make sure that every image resonates with warmth and authenticity, transforming raw moments into beautifully crafted memories. My work is creating art that not only captures moments but also evokes feelings and tells a compelling story.

“I tend to think of the act of photographing, generally speaking, as an adventure. My favorite thing is to go where I’ve never been.”
