I’m drawn to real, unposed moments, the ones that unfold naturally and honestly. My work thrives outdoors, where connection meets the beauty of the landscape, and where every frame feels both grounded and poetic. Blending storytelling and artistry to create timeless, emotive images.

I specialize in capturing real moments for those who value connection over perfection. Whether you're planning a dreamy desert elopement, an intimate wedding or a lifestyle session, I’m here to tell your story through beautiful, detailed imagery.

About

Hey, I’m Meliyah

Christ follower, storyteller, book lover, & your new photographer

I’ve been doing photography for three years now and I continually find myself loving it more and more. I fell in love with photography because it freezes time. It documents what, when, and where in a single moment. There’s so many moments in life I love to go back to relive and I want to give that to others as well! As an elopement, intimate wedding, and lifestyle photographer I offer more than just beautiful photos. I deliver a full experience rooted in trust, creativity, and attention to detail so you to can relive the sweet moments.

I’m so grateful that God gifted me with the ability to capture His incredible creation! I’m super outgoing, always laughing, chasing adventure, savoring slow mornings, and getting lost in books. These are honestly the things that make up most of my days. I live to document and tell stories, dive into new tales, and create my own journey. Because at the heart of it all, life is about love, stories, and memories!
