MELODY JANE PHOTO

PORTRAIT | WEDDING | LIFESTYLE | EVENT

 

it all started with my love for ACTING - AND THE ACTORS THEMSELVES.

 

I’ve been an actor, singer, and musical theatre kid for as long as I can remember - but when I got my first Nikon D80 at 14, something clicked (and it wasn’t just the shutter). As much as I adore storytelling through performance, nothing compares to the fulfillment I find in capturing people living their stories. There's a kind of magic that happens when our energies meet. Witnessing someone in their element and preserving that moment through my lens... that’s where the real story lives.


My passion for storytelling now extends beyond headshots - which was my primary work for years. Now, I see stories everywhere... even in something as simple as a glass of wine or the way a light reflects off of a musician's guitar.


Stories are all around all the time; and it's my job and privilege to capture and celebrate them as often as I can.

Testimonials

Melody Jane is simply and purely a magical human being. When the day arrived to meet up for my shoot, I had a completely unexpected and tragic loss in my life. She was flexible with me in compassionate understanding. Her authenticity, professionalism and sensitivity to the human condition brought an essence out of me that I didn’t even know I had. I use her work (and will continue to) in everything I do as a representative of a large body of people. I am a poet but she is poetry in motion. Her eye for beauty and capturing special moments is unmatched. 10/10.

JESSE JAMES ZIEGLER

As someone who has had their photograph taken for over 25 years spent as a professional actor, I'm here to say that Melody is a gifted photographer. The best photographs are on the other side of a successful shoot, and Melody sets the tone for one that is open, fun, and exciting. As a result, she makes you feel more beautiful than you've ever felt in your life, and most importantly, she captures the true YOU.


DEB LEAMY

We had the pleasure of working with Melody for our wine consulting business, and it was a great experience. She understood our vision and effectively captured the essence of our brand through their photography.


Thanks to Melody, we now have a set of images that enhance our marketing efforts and help establish our brand identity. I would recommend her talents to anyone looking for professional photography that truly reflects their business.
