My purpose is to show you how beautiful you are as you are!

My passion for photography comes from a deep love for finding beauty in the simplest moments. Every click of the camera is an opportunity to capture the unique essence of each moment. I strive to create a comfortable and authentic environment, allowing your true selves to shine through in every photograph.

Meli Miller Photography and Pet

Hola! My name is Melisa, but you can call me Meli.

I'm a portrait photographer, visual designer, artist and former Montessori Teacher. I am obsessed with all things celestial: The moon, stars, sunsets, and clouds. But my love doesn't stop at the sky; I'm also a huge fan of capturing the beauty that's all around us. From the magic in a child's smile, to the love that floats between a couple or the eyes of a mother holding her babyfor the first time. I'm all about those raw, authentic moments.

By pushing my limits, I’ve learned to embrace my true self and see the world with a fresh perspective. This has allowed me to help my clients uncover their own unique beauty and authenticity. I believe that everyone has a story to tell, and my goal is to capture it in a way that is both meaningful and visually stunning. I'm a Colombian photographer with a natural ability for connecting with people on a personal level and making them feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera.

So, if you're ready to capture the magic of your life...

A perfect day for me involves a picnic, a good laugh, and maybe a little binge-watching of Friends. When I'm not snapping photos, you'll probably find me barefoot in the grass, lost in a good book, or hanging out with my dog, Cosmo; Oh, and did I mention that I have the best husband in the world? He's my biggest fan, supporter, and adventure buddy.

I used to be terrified of butterflies, but after a personal breakthrough, I realized they are a symbol of transformation and growth. Just like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon, I've learned to step out of my comfort zone and embrace the journey of self-discovery. Butterflies now remind me to evolve, blossom, and follow my dreams.

Some kind words!

My Approach

My photography approach is to understand your vision, connect with your story, and translate it into timeless images. I believe in going beyond just taking photos to truly encapsulate the emotions and narrative of your special day.

No forced poses that look uncomfortable for the family, especially newborn sessions. No stiff or uncomfortable positions here, just cozy, natural setups that match what feels good for your family or little one. The aim is to keep a happy and relaxed environment so the session is smooth and easy.

Pose with the flow

​I’m all about giving you options! We can do your session at your home, or even outdoors (weather permitting). I’m happy to adapt to your preferences and the needs of the day, just let me know what you’re up for!

Versatile

Your family's safety is my top priority. I stick to comfy, natural poses,  and I’m also CPR certified, and a former Montessori Teacher.
So you can relax knowing your little one is in good hands!

Safety

Personal Touch

I strive to create a relaxed and enjoyable experience. I want to get to know you and your family to better capture your unique moments.
