Diego,

Thank you so much for reaching out, and congratulations!! I am SO excited for you and Courtney!

Bayou Bend is one of my very favorite places to photograph, and it is going to be the most beautiful backdrop for your proposal. I would love to help you plan every detail so the moment is a total surprise.

These will be the photos you two look back on forever, and I can't wait to capture her reaction!

I'm so honored to be part of this moment!

Hi, I'm Melody

I'm a Houston and destination wedding photographer who grew up in Portland, Oregon, which is where my love for nature, adventure, and photography began.

On your day, I'm there to create art you'll look back on for the rest of your lives, to document your story as it unfolds, and to hold every moment of your journey with care.

I edit every single image myself, so your gallery comes back true to color, warm, and full of life.

Intentional storytelling for the wildly in love
