Melissa is a food, beverage, and hospitality photographer based in the San Francisco Bay Area. For her, food and beverage photography is not just about creating beautiful images – it’s about telling authentic stories that connect us to our shared human experience. Her hope is that her work will inspire others to discover new tastes, explore new cultures, and experience the joys of sharing a good meal with the people we love.
She came to photography from a background in writing as well as in the restaurant industry, where she developed a deep love for the art of crafting stories as well as a huge passion for food and beverage. Her colleagues and clients describe her as engaging, optimistic, and creative, aligning with her core values of joy and integrity.
She can’t wait to meet you and create amazing imagery together!
