learn more about melissa
As a former theatre girl turned Wedding Photographer, I’ve heard the phrase, “Once more with feeling” plenty of times; but it gives the connotation “to put on” a feeling, and that’s just not it for me.
I want you to feel FREE and completely in the moment on your Wedding Day. I create an environment for you to be your most AUTHENTIC self. Making people feel comfortable is something that has always come natural to me. When you are comfortable, you’re able, not only to be your most authentic self, but also to CONNECT with those around you; and while that’s happening, I’ll be there creating ART out of how it felt.

A few Baltimore wedding venues I've photographed weddings in:
Recommended Baltimore venues for engagement & formal photos:
SHE IS TRULY AN ARTIST AND FANTASTIC AT HER CRAFT
"My husband and I were lucky enough to have Melissa photograph both our engagement photos and our elopement. Melissa is so kind, flexible and professional. I can't say enough great things about her, and that's just as a person. She is truly an artist and fantastic at her craft. Our photos are so beautiful, and really capture our day in such a magical way."
SHE DOESN’T POSE YOU SHE JUST SHOOTS WHO YOU ARE!
"Melissa is wonderful! She is such a great photographer and makes you feel at ease and captures the most amazing moments and memories of your day!! I have been blown away with all the amazing pictures I have received from her, wedding and engagement pictures! She always has a smile on her face and she laughs and smiles with you! She doesn’t pose you she just shoots who you are! We heard nothing but positive words about her from our bridal party and guests too! Dave her second shooter was also amazing! Pick Bliss every time! You won’t regret it!"
SHE IS FRIENDLY, HELPFUL AND HAS A VISION
"Melissa was such a pleasure to work with! She is friendly, helpful and has a vision. She took the most beautiful elopement photos for us and just photographed our bigger wedding. She is great at getting candid and more artsy shots while still getting the classic portraits you want from a wedding. Could not recommend her enough!"
THE TEAM WAS FRIENDLY, POSITIVE, AND HELPFUL AND OUR PHOTOS ARE HIGH QUALITY.
"Thank you, Melissa, for our beautiful wedding photos! Melissa did an amazing job communicating with us, building a timeline, and wrangling family members for portraits on our wedding day. Having amazing photos of our wedding was very important to me and I am happy we trusted Bliss to provide them. The team was friendly, positive, and helpful and our photos are high quality. I also appreciate that we have a mixture of posed pictures and candid moments."
Melissa and her team are truly amazing!!
"Melissa exceeded expectations! She was so professional, caring, and fun to work with and really helped the day flow so smoothly. Melissa sent us a sneak peek of both our wedding pictures 1-2 days after! We had our entire wedding album back in less than three weeks! We had friends married two weeks before us who had yet to see one picture from their wedding by the time Melissa had sent us all our pictures. Everyone who sees our pictures cannot stop complimenting them! We cannot recommend Melissa enough and can’t wait to work with her again in the future!"
