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

Amy Wenzel is AMAZING!!!

Wow! What an amazing weekend I had at Amy Wenzel’s Photography Workshop! I don’t even know where to start. I traveled to Michigan earlier in the summer to attend the workshop, but as you know, her husband was diagnosed with a Brain tumor the very evening we arrived. This was the much-anticipated postponed/rescheduled event!

I met up with my good friend, Kristen again in Michigan, and we had a fantastic time! There is sooo much information floating around in my head at the moment. I’m hoping that it somehow continues to absorb so that I don’t forget a thing.

I’ve been so excited to edit and post some of my favorite images I took from our afternoon of shooting. The models were pretty impressive. I mean, the oldest was 9 and they all seemed to be naturals. Can you imagine being a kid and having 20 crazy photographers coming at you with their cameras, yelling at you and telling you how to turn your head? Kinda intimidating, don’t ya think?

Amy, if by chance you read this…..YOU ROCK! I learned so much and loved getting to hang with you for a few days! Thanks again!

October 2, 2009 - 1:28 am Missy - very nice! i love them and they looked like shots out of a magazine... you're such a pro! like the new logo! The first little girl is a doll!

October 2, 2009 - 1:31 am Missy - wait...why don't you have your logo look like the one at the top of your blog? You know, with the word photography in that kind of font is what i mean?! just an idea!

October 3, 2009 - 8:50 pm Dawn - Gorgeous images, Melissa!

August 16, 2010 - 12:46 pm Carrie - Hi there, I love your pictures! they are so crisp and clear. I love photography, but am so much a beginner it's not even funny! I was wondering if you could give me some advice-as to what kind of camera-lens you use to make such clear pictures. I can't get that clarity with my canon rebel. Any advice would be awesome! Have a great day, Carrie Thomas
