Hi!, 

I'm Melissa

I'm located in Murrysville, PA. Thanks for stopping by to learn more about me.

First and foremost, I am the wife to my incredible hubby and mom to three not so little children. 

I 'm trained in lighting, posing, and newborn safety with over 11+ years experience. Over the last decade I have worked extremely hard to find my style of photography and create polished, professional work for my clients.

Before photography, I taught First Grade  for 8 years. I went on maternity leave with our third child and during that time continued creating outside the classroom with photography and design.  I love working with families and being able to create.

What I love most about photography is capturing emotion. I'd be honored to document those moments for you. 

I'm so glad you're here!

News From The

Portrait Studio

MHP is opening a new studio located in Murrysville, PA.  Construction is under way now and we hope to have an opening date of January 1,2025! 
The studio will have a cozy reception area for clients with a coffee and snack bar.  Our new studio will have a separate changing room for moms and families with a full length mirror. The open floor plan and high ceilings will be a wonderful new space with endless possibilities to create dream setups for our clients. 

"I think, at a child's birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift should be curiosity."
- Eleanor Roosevelt
