  • Welcome to my here today

    My name is Melissa Squires.. What I do is to capture frames of you that show your real true inner shining rock star self. It isn’t about being someone else, dressing some certain way and you don't need any secret sauce, you are what makes YOU and wonderful and interesting and special. My images reflect the beauty, joy, and inner soul of my subjects, and the moments they inhabit.. these images are forever.

    Photography is how I express myself, how I see, how I celebrate who we are today.

    My son is my breath and my husband is my life. I will be quite satisfied when I am 80 if I have loved them well and taken some amazing photographs along the way.

stephanie and chris

Too many pictures in this post I know! But it is so hard to choose. Stephanie and Chris were married in the beautiful state capital of michigan, Lansing. I had been a few times to Lansing but we had the most fun ever exploring around campus and finding amazing places for portraits.

Then of course the ceremony was at the historic and beautiful Turner Dodge House and the reception was at the very cool Beggars Banquet a very groovy bar downtown!

So please forgive me so many images, it’s lucky this post isn’t three times as long!
