Melissa McArdle is a dreamer. She loves the beauty of life and the special moments strung together through visual storytelling. With an intuitive sense for capturing the essence of her clients, delectable culinary moments, intimate details of objects, and the design aesthetic of creative souls and artist’s spaces, Melissa offers a diverse approach to her photography.

She believes the capturing of a moment in time is a gift, a piece of someone’s story being witnessed and honored while awake, aware and present.

Finding inspiration around her and gathering clients visions of how they wish for their story to unfold or be shared has opened another door to Melissa’s ongoing artistic love affair with imagery, words and design. Through creative consulting, she continues to build brand narratives through visual media, brand consulting, website design layout/building, and social media marketing.

The world is her playground - and she loves creating with clients here, there and every where: mel@melissamcardle.com
