Hi! My name is Melissa and I am a photographer/content creator based in Tacoma, WA. I grew up around the South Sound of Washington state and as I grew older I fell in love with the pacific northwest and everything it has to offer. Really I have a huge connection with the outdoors and the time I spend in nature provides a healing, unlike anything I know. I love to try to capture these moments through my lens and share them with others.
My family and I enjoy hiking, backpacking, fishing, camping, road trips, kayaking, and really all types of activities outdoors. In a nutshell, I love my cats, a good book, peppermint mochas at cute coffee shops, exploring new areas, comedy, and learning about natural wonders/phenomena.
