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 so hard about what I want to say about myself!  I grew up in Florida with a large family of nine kids. My enitre family has Art running through their veins. My G-pa was a professional photographer (old school), 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 my photography is like my drug, ha ha ha. I am 5 years married with two sweet boys, 3 and 18 mo. (I'm going to have to keep that updated...). I love my family dearly, I love my beliefs and going to church, I'm a good girl, and I never INTEND to offend anybody :) Sarchasm is non-existant in my blood, so I can get very confused around it sometimes, but that's okay.

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 3 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 was 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?

Yellow Gold Grandbabies

Well, I’ve had the privilage to photograph a few weddings out at Yellow Gold Farms, and they must have enjoyed having us, because they had me come back and photograph their beautiful Grandaughters!  These girls were adorable, and I’m sure you think I’m just saying this, but they were so well behaved!  I hope they love their pictures.

I am so far behind these days, so I am just posting a few of my favorites that I thought were fun and different…

September 4, 2009 - 11:12 pm Missy Cochran - Photographer - Bah ha ha ha ha!!! I even gave him a sound effect! It's a high pitched inward gasp that sounds just a little strained

Chad & Toni: Wedding Day

Missy has been excited for this wedding since she met with the bride and groom for the first time, and as soon as I saw the engagement session they rocked with Missy, I new we were in for an amazing wedding.  I just have to say that Chad adores Toni and Toni adores Chad.  They were both just so happy to be with eachother, you might even say “Giddy!”  The entire day was just lovely…
