Oh hey! I’m Melissa, a Boston family & newborn photographer, but I like to refer to myself as a toddler-whispering, child-taming, photographic ninja. I’m also a mother of two little dudes and two fluffy pups, which puts me right there in the trenches with my clients (see film to catch a glimpse into my world! Credit to my friend Amy Murgatroyd). I spend my weekdays as an elementary Reading Specialist and my weekends and school vacations capturing the beautiful chaos of families like yours. My two jobs complement each other so well and I can’t imagine choosing one over the other. If there’s one thing I’ve learned over the last few years, it’s that time is a thief and photos allow us the ability to hold on to it all.
