The Person Behind the Lens
An artist from an early age, Mel learned to hone her creative talents and came to the realisation that photography was her passion. Like many photographers, she began her career capturing the special moments in people's lives including babies, family portraits and weddings. Although Mel's focus and passion has shifted to Commercial Photography, many of her former clients still manage to convince her to return time and again to photograph those priceless famil;y memories. After many years of working in customer service industries, as well as squeezing in the time to have three children, Mel develop a truly unique perspective when it comes to photographing people from all warps of life and thrives on the challenge of extracting a genuine smile from the most 'stubborn' of clients. Brisbane born and bred, Mel and her team can help you discover the best locations to showcase your brand.
