Melissa Stimpson Photography

A lover of luminous light, joyful elegance and images with feeling. Melissa’s photographs have been described as timeless, bold, deeply romantic with the perfect balance of honest wonder. A constant student of light and composition has elevated her photography over the past decade resulting in a curation of images that tell each unique love story. Melissa brings a calm and organized energy to each event while nailing the often fast paced wedding day timeline and always comes prepared with a plan B. It starts by working with each couple personally and listening to their wedding day hopes and dreams then creates a plan that successfully delivers the moment’s you never want to forget. Melissa has experience in editorial, photojournalism, and commercial photography but has become best known for her sincere fine art wedding style. In 2010 Melissa launched her photography career following her graduation from the prestigious Hallmark Institute of Photography. Shortly after, she wed her high school sweetheart in Providence Rhode Island and now reside in the small town of Wilbraham Massachusetts with their two children, Sage and Sebastian.
