Hi, I’m Melissa. I am a small-town Ontario photographer and designer with big dreams. I am a hopeless romantic who is obsessed with tacos, puppies and shoes. Most days you will find me behind my computer either working away hard with a huge smile on my face… Or hardly working, watching my favourite TV shows: The Bachelor, Grey’s Anatomy or How to Get Away with Murder. I’m a wedding photographer, graphic designer and entrepreneur – plus, I am always looking for a new adventure / new place to explore. I am a dog lover, hard cider drinker, cheese connoisseur and championship napper.
“CINDERELLA IS PROOF THAT A NEW PAIR OF SHOES CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE.”
My photography style? It is light, honest and genuine. I believe that everyone is photogenic and has a beautiful story to be told. I make it simple by keeping it light-hearted, and focus on those precious candid moments that naturally occur between two people who are madly in love.
My favourite part of my career, would have to be the people. I get to meet plenty of folks, document one of their happiness memories and share in all the love that surrounds them. Years from now, I want you to look at your photographs and have all those memories come flooding back. The bliss, sentiment, light and laughter from your special day. It should almost be like you get to relive it all over again.
I am so blessed and thankful for my life and career. I learn from my mistakes and grow as a photographer every day, looking for new and innovated ideas. No Melissa Bride Experience is the exact same. Yes, you will have a beautiful, entertaining adventure with me but each wedding is captured in a different light then the last one. Everyone is unique!
If you’re dying to hear more, here are five things you might not know about me.
I snort when I laugh
I have terrible dance moves but that doesn’t keep me off the dance floor
I can barbeque up a mean medium-rare steak
I have over 50 pairs of shoes and still counting
And I love going on long road trips
