Melanie Jade: Photographer bio picture

The Person

Well first of all, I try not to take myself too seriously, so it's hard for me to think about what I want to say about myself!  I grew up in Florida with a large family. My enitre family has Art running through their veins. My Grandfather was a professional photographer, Mom and Dad both have artistic qualities, and I think all of my sibblings have a knack for being creative one way or another! So here I am, married with children and wondering how in the world am I going to channel my passion into something beautiful, productive, fulfilling, and find bliss all at the same time!? But seriously, I sometimes feel like photography is my drug.

I am 6 years married with three sweet boys, 4, 2, and 5 months. (I'm going to have to keep that updated...). I love my family dearly, I love my Heavenly Father and going to church, I'm a good girl, and I never INTEND to offend anybody :) I'm very gullible, goofy, and an all around happy-go-lucky person.

The Photographer

Why Photography?  Oh goodness, I need an outlet, I LOVE people, I love love, and I LOVE adorable little baby fat rolls. I HAVE to create, I can't breathe without that.  Though being a full time mom and homemaker takes up most of my time and energy, I just can't keep myself from obsessing and dreaming about being an amazing wedding Photographer.  Over the past 4 years in the wedding industry, I feel like I've become a regular wedding junkie!  By recognizing the latest styles and wedding trends, I am prepared to capture everything that is unique and beautiful at your wedding and wrap it all up into an amazing timeless package.  And that amazing package is the work of art you will walk away with when the day is all said and done.  How well do you want to remember it?

Brian & Emily Wedding

Monday, June 9, 2008 Posted in Wedding Day

Brian and Emily were married in Corbet, Oregon at The View Point Inn, which had an amazing view looking out at the Columbia River!  Their wedding was very intimate with about 20 people total!  After their ceremony and a few pictures, they all sat down for dinner at the Inn.  It was very low key (which was nice for a change), but the intimacy made it feel just as wonderful!  They were very sweet together, and did great things with out much direction, in fact I’d say I just had to tell them where to stand!

There was a horse really close to it’s fence, so we went over to pet it and get this shot! Reminiscent of a famous picture I’ve seen of a man paying for flowers as a donkey is eating them…(He didn’t really eat them! I’m not sure what’s poisonous or what’s not!)

Then we went back inside to shoot in one more of the awesome rooms!

I just had a great time relaxing THEM and enjoying the scenery.  I also enjoyed how fun the Inn was decorated!  Brian and Emily Reserved the entire upstairs and every room was ADORABLE!
