Canberra Wedding and Milestone Portrait Photographer, Melissa Flanagan

A little about me,

I am a Canberra based Wedding Photographer, I LOVE what I do, it is such an exciting time, and believe me, it's infectious. Being photographed by me, is a day full of memories, laughing and relaxed imagery is just a bonus. I very very often then photograph you and your partner, as you become parents, and begin families, (sometimes not always in that order!). On your special day, no matter the event, you need to be surrounded by passionate people, who LOVE what they do! I have been capturing everything from engagement sessions, maternity portraits, newborn images, your children's milestone sessions, christening images, family portraits, and of course, weddings.

Mum to three, wife of one, friend & photographer of hundreds (probably more). With over 20 years of experience, your precious memories are in the safest of hands. I capture when they fall in love,  when they propose, when they tie the knot, then they fall pregnant, and when they become families. Canberra Wedding Photography is just one thing I LOVE doing, the leading up to and the life after is what I adore capturing also. So whether it is - just as you've become engaged, you're deciding to take the jump and marry your life partner, big or small celebrations, newborn portraits, family portraits, or just because... contact Mel, discuss your needs and we can tailor your portraits to
