A LITTLE ABOUT Melody!

I’m a photographer based in Springfield, MO, dedicated to capturing life’s most meaningful moments. My love for photography is deeply rooted in my appreciation for relationships—both personally and professionally. As a speech-language pathologist working in public schools, I have the privilege of connecting with children every day, helping them find their voices and express themselves. That same passion for storytelling translates into my photography, where I strive to capture authentic emotions, personalities, and connections.

I believe learning and growth never stop, and that excitement fuels my creativity behind the lens. Every photograph should reflect the unique personality and vibe of the people in it. Whether it’s a high-energy senior session, an emotional wedding moment, a professional headshot, or a dynamic performance, I tailor each session to embrace the subject—you. I welcome creative collaboration—let’s bring your vision to life!

More About Me!

  • I hold a Master’s degree in Speech-Language Pathology and continue to serve children in public schools, where I find daily inspiration in their resilience, joy, and curiosity.

  • My husband, Aaron, and I, along with our two children, share a love for travel and music festivals.

  • Our dog, Lucy, and cats, Fluffy and Dalia, have one big thing in common with me… we all love a good nap!
