[email protected] Portrait / Themed Photographer Covering Ireland and Northern Ireland. Miss Mels
(69)

Relaxed and Natural style of photography that captures moments between family members with a magical feel (cause who are we kidding we all love a little magic) taking in the surrounding natural light. Most of my shoots are held in the great outdoors , firstly to obtain that natural light, to give the smaller members some space and freedom to allow for their true personalities to come out. And to t

ake advantage of some of the most amazing backdrops that our beautiful country has to offer. I am fun and full of energy, I will spend time chatting and playing games in order to build that important relationship with the clients (especially the smaller ones) all this leads to the most natural, fun, cheesy , adoarble special , fleeting moments that get captured and re visited over and over again for many years to come. I love hearing from clients before hand on thoughts and inspiration for what they want from their shoot. As each shoot is special to each client and thats the way it should be. Most of my favoured images are those when the subject is not connecting with the camera but connecting with a mother / father / sibling / grand parent or even family pet. To me this is Real time Photography and a lot of my work would be heavily weighted this way. So please take a look through some of my work and if you feel this is the type of Photography that will suit your families personalities then don't be shy and send me a PM and we can get to planning and chatting.

19/05/2024

So a few have come to me and asked ,so I am putting out to you all … is this something that would interest you .

Post communion shoot -the day has passed and for whatever reason ,weather ,time etc you did not have any pictures took how would you feel about a mini session after the day ,now I am not sure on all the details but it would cover the communion boy or girl beautiful portraits to capture their special moment !

Please let me know guys if this was something a lot was interested in I could look at a set date ,secure a fab location and ensure everyone has those special moments !!

𝓒𝓵𝓲𝓬𝓴, 𝓒𝓪𝓹𝓽𝓾𝓻𝓮, 𝓒𝓸𝓷𝓷𝓮𝓬𝓽

Hello its Miss Mels Photography here I have been meeting families and capturing beautiful memories for the last 10 years and what a privilege it is for me to do so. First communions has always been a favourite of mine, it's always a magical day shared with your loved ones, it's a day of great pride and many blessings.

So what can you expect from me and a first communion season here at Miss Mels Photography? well as many have experienced I make sure to "Click" with the kiddos, we always make sure to have a good giggle about things, this always helps them relax into the session, we work on some stunning and classically timeless portraits, true treasures to be pass down through future generations.

I love nothing more than to "capture" these moments, and of course communion is a day of celebration with the family so I will always ensure to get some really natural exchanges with their siblings, aunts, godparents and grandparents, I love to see the connect with families and in turn hoping that in years to come, people can revisit the moment and "connect" with the image all over again.

Laughing, dancing, twirling, posing, hugs, swings, dancing, football tricks, tree climbing is to name but a few things we also might try out on the session. It's packed full of fun in the great outdoors allowing the kids the space to let their own personalities shine through, the way it should be and I am right there ready to click capture and connect.

Please feel free to PM me or contact me on [email protected] to make a booking today for Communion 2024
