Melissa Hatcher Photography – Photo Blog bio picture

Meet Melissa!

Let's see......you want to know about me, huh?

I'm pretty simple.  I've been in love with the same man since I was 16 years old.  He is my best friend and we believe in each other....always have....always will.  We have 3 of the most beautiful children you'll ever lay eyes on!  I'm most comfortable in jeans and a t-shirt (baseball undershirts are my fave!) although I do love getting dressed up for a night out on the town.  Sushi Den, anyone?  I'm a southern girl through and through.  I love crawfish!  Give me a huge slice of chocolate cake with fudge icing and a cold coke and I'm in heaven!  I'm a Daddy's girl.  I love the outdoors and I am more than willing to take part in anything remotely competitive.  I hate to lose even more than I hate clutter.  I am a lover of practical jokes and was taught by the best.  This is why, to this day, I don't answer my Mother's phone calls on April Fool's Day.  I cherish my friends and family.  They are the ones that have made me who I am.  I love the Lord with all my heart.  He is my strength and my joy.  He has blessed me in every way!  Oh, yeah......and did I mention I LOVE photography!  It is my PASSION!

In my bag:  Nikon D700, 85mm f 1.4 and 50mm f 1.8

Thanks for all the great advice and positive feedback about my brochure. It was fun putting it together. I still have a few little tweaks to do before I send it to the printer. I am hoping to have them in my hands within the next couple weeks.
I did my first family shoot of 2009...

Off to the printer!

So, I’ve had a few requests to see the finished product of my session information trifold brochure. I’ve been working on it for a while and I finally finished. I’m hoping to get it off to the printer in the next couple days.

A little shout out to my wonderful hubby. I couldn’t have done...

Look who is 2!

It has been a slow month as far as photo sessions go. I am scheduled to have two next weekend, and hopefully booking a few more for February. I actually haven’t minded the slow for a while. Before the holidays it was crazy busy, and it is good to use this time to play and...

What’s wrong with these pics?

As I was messing around photoshop the other day trying to figure out how to do make my logo into a copyright image, I discovered something. Can you see what I see?
Not cool, right? The one on the left is the one that is on my business cards. I fixed the image to look...

Little Snowbunnies

We woke up to around 5 inches of snow this morning blanketing our street and front yard. Since the kids are still on their break, and I’m trying to be the cool, fun mom for two more weeks, I decided to take on the task of bundling them all up and heading outside to play....

Someone pinch me!

I can’t believe it! The picture I entered in the photo contest got chosen as one of the top 5. I’ve been waiting ALL day, stalking the site to see who won, and during a small window of non-stalking activity I recieved an email from my cousin saying, “Congrats on the photo contest”....
