Photography mentorship With Melanie

• Personalized Guidance – We’ll start with where you are right now and create a path toward where you want to go.
• Hands-On Learning – From camera basics to working with natural light, posing, or creating atmosphere—I’ll show you how to make your camera feel like second nature.
• Creative Exploration – I’ll encourage you to discover your own voice as a photographer, whether you love storytelling, portraits, landscapes, or a little of everything.
• Practical Tools – Editing workflows, organizing your work, and even stepping into the business side if that’s a dream of yours.
• Supportive Feedback – Honest, thoughtful critiques that help you grow while staying true to your style.

• Beginners who want to understand their camera and capture meaningful images.
• Hobbyists ready to sharpen their skills and explore new techniques.
• Aspiring professionals curious about how to build a portfolio or brand.

Mentorship can look different for everyone—sometimes it’s one-on-one sessions (online or in person), sometimes it’s shadowing me on a shoot, and often it’s a mix of both. We’ll shape it to fit your pace, your goals, and your comfort level.

Honestly, I absolutely love what I do and I love teaching.  Mentoring began organically as I found myself offering my time over coffee, a quick message here and there or a zoom call and it evolved into what it is today. Helping others come into their own personal style, seeing them grow, create  and finding confidence.

 If you feel called to grow as a photographer, I’d love to share what I’ve learned and walk alongside you as you find your own vision.
