I’m Mel, a lifestyle, portrait, and sports photographer

I pick up my camera to find the beauty in the simplest moments

Photography is an extension of my life. I'm a mom of 4 kids who keep me on my toes. Sports photography is my passion and with 4 kids in club soccer, there's always so much to capture. Let me capture those moments for you too. Whether a proposal, prom, sports actions or senior portraits, let me help you in making those memories last a lifetime.

I was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii. I have been lucky enough to grow up and see the beauty the world presents to us if we just take the time to see it.

Fact 2


Sneaking in pictures of kids is a must for me. They might not always like it but I honestly believe they will thank me one day when they are showing their children a photo with a story behind it that I was able to capture.

Just like with my photography, I enjoy the simpler things in life - being out and about with friends and family is something that brings me so much joy. I love the people in my life, so I want to always take it all in whenever possible.
