Hello there!


My name is Melanie Taylor. Thanks for dropping by!

I'm an on-location Modern Lifestyle Professional Portrait and Party/Event Photographer and have been enjoying capturing people's smiles for almost 17 years now in New Jersey and the New York City area. My love for photography started when I was young when I always had a camera on hand taking photos of people and places. My favorite hobby eventually led me to this photography business when people started to ask me to take photos for them and I've never stopped since then!


In case you have a few more minutes, here's a few more fun little things about me to get to know me a little more...

  • of course i love taking photos every time and everywhere! my iphone's storage is always full! feel free to check out my 3 Instagram accounts :-)
  • i love the Arts and Architecture which is why I have a "special artistic eye" and style for taking photos ;-)
  • i love food, dessert and travelling and love to explore
  • i love NYC
  • i love the Summer season and the beach since I grew up in a tropical country
  • i love dogs and cats, and we have a little Yorkie fur baby named Maui
  • i love watching TV, movies, concerts and Broadway shows
  • i love the Fall Season which is why we got married in October which is also the perfect time for leaf peeping. Note that my photo was taken by my husband (who is not a photographer) during one of our Wedding Anniversary Fall Trips in one of our fave places - Stowe, Vermont
  • i love children and children love me. ;-) I grew up taking care of some of my cousins.
  • i love music - most genres


That's all folks! Thanks again for taking your time to get to know me! I can't wait to meet you and your families as well! See you soon! :-)
