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

Just for you, Dad

When we went home to LA a few weeks ago, I took some pictures of my kids playing around on my parent’s “farm”.  The kids always have a blast running around and getting filthy.  They spend their time collecting eggs from the chicken coop, riding around on 4-wheelers, hunting for 4 leaf clovers, playing on the deck,...

I need your two cents. Really, I do!

I’m thinking of doing an ad in a local magazine, and I’m trying to decide what to list as my “special offer.”
That’s where you come in.  Which of the following is the most appealing offer to you?

25% off the session fee
a free 11 X 14 when you book
a free accordian book when you book

Or, if...
