Hi, i'm Mel.

Creative lover, story seeker and possibly the most optimistic person you've met. I am based in Noosa, Sunshine Coast, capturing photos that spark joy and tell unique stories.

Smile with Mel was born out of a love for documenting and connecting with others. With a degree in Advertising and Marketing and over 10 years working in the industry, I decided to dive deeper into my love for visual media. Honing my skills I studied in Australia and Canada, and developed my own creative style.

⠀

For me it’s all about capturing the moments in-between, making whoever is front of my lens feel comfortable, and leaving you or your business with something you can look back on in years to come and still feel excited about.⠀

I truly believe we look our best when we are just being ourselves and I strive to make anyone in front of the camera feel comfortable enough for that to happen!
