If you're an explorer who craves unique architecture, sunrises and sunsets over sprawling coastal waters, safe hikes leading to gorgeous views, and nearby towns filled with culture and delicious food -- I'm your girl! My Domestic U.S. and International Destination engagement, elopement, and wedding collections include location idea-mapping, additional sessions that you won't see in local collections, flexible timelines, and fully customizable add-ons. The best part: you won't have to be responsible for getting me there... I'll take care of it.

"Within the shots she captured, I can feel all the emotions I felt that day."
"If you’re looking for a photographer that will allow you to re-live moments that only your heart can describe, HIRE MELISSA NOW! My proposal was a surprise to me while vacationing in Puerto Rico with friends and I am so grateful to be able to re-live the moments. Within the shots she captured, I can feel all the emotions I felt that day. Her attention to details and ability to capture genuine candids is why you need to hire her! I cried happy tears instantly. Months later, my fiancé and I still love going through the photos, retelling the beautiful chaos of the day."
"We for sure have our forever photographer."
"Melissa is AMAZING! We had spoke to so many photographers and none were as excited as she was when we told her we wanted to shoot at the Grand Canyon. I'm a really shy person and don't like taking photos, but she made us feel at ease and took the most beautiful photos. 10 out of 10 would recommend her! We for sure have our forever photographer."
"Absolutely who you want alongside you on your wedding day."
"Not only is she an incredible photographer, she is the sweetest person and absolutely who you want alongside you on your wedding day. She has gone above and beyond for us and we couldn’t appreciate her more! We will absolutely be booking her again for life’s most important moments!"
"I am over the moon..."
"They captured every moment and emotion from the day so perfectly. I am over the moon happy with how amazing our pictures turned out. Not only are the pictures INCREDIBLE, but they were amazing to work with! They were super personable and made everyone feel really comfortable every minute of the day- even the groomsmen. I highly recommend Stella Shots Media for any and all professional photography needs."
