documentary style imagery

For the everyday romantics; I focus on aesthetically documenting life and its happenings. For the people who celebrate their biggest milestones by relishing in the most minor details. From the “I do.” to the “Hold my beer, " let’s tell your life's authentic and beautiful story.

myself

hi, i’m melinda

I’m the gal behind the camera and business owner of Melinda Kaye Photography. During my first maternity leave in 2019, I decided to finally pursue my passion for photography. What started out as a hobby quickly turned into my dream job, and I eventually left my full-time marketing job to go all in.

I live for capturing the special moments in life- from engagements, weddings, family shoots... and everything in between, I couldn’t image doing anything else. My goal is to capture whimsical and intimate moments showcasing emotion and connection between loved ones. I strongly encourage you to be silly, be in love, be you, and let me share that and capture it with you.

Some things are meant to be documented.

  • If you're currently on the wedding photographer hunt, call off the search and book Melinda, NOW!! My husband and I got married September 2021 and are still telling people about how amazing our experience with Melinda was. Our wedding photos are our most prized possession -- simply STUNNING photos that genuinely capture who we are as a couple and the general feeling of love and excitement that was in the air on our wedding day. Plus, she's an absolute gem to work with. We loved our experience with Melinda so much that we continue (and always will) to use her for our family photo sessions. We feel lucky to have gained a friend as well as the most gorgeous photos to look back on.

  • "We love Melinda! She captures our family so well- what we thought was a cheesy pose during a session- turned into a beautiful portrait. She listens to our requests and goes above and beyond. Her personality is caring, detailed, and genuine. Our family sessions are an annual event and we are so excited to always choose Melinda."

    The LaPlante Family

  • "Melinda has been such a joy to work with! Her kindness and patience behind the camera made us feel so confident and comfortable with being in front of the camera. She is incredibly talented at capturing genuine smiles, love and happiness in each photo! We have never had photos that truly show our personalities like these, and that is a true testament to Melinda."

    Morganne & Ben

  • “Melinda has now done 3 photo sessions for us and each one has been as incredible as the last. Her style and consistency keep us coming back! She makes everyone feel incredibly comfortable through the whole session - pets, kids and husbands! She’s incredibly patient yet can get amazing shots quickly when there’s a lot going on. She knows the types of shots that look great, but can also get any shot you’re looking for. My entire family loves working with her and through sneak peeks of her work, I’ve had several people asking for her info!”
