Fatima & Raza,

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

Rice University is such a beautiful spot for portraits, with all of its gorgeous archways, warm stone, and greenery. I can already picture how stunning your photos will be.

I would love to hear more about your plans and everything you're dreaming up for your session!

I'm so excited to celebrate you two!

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
