• 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.

    Booking weddings now for November and December 2010 and into 2011

    Portrait sessions are limited and booking two - three months in advance; thank you for contacting and booking ahead of time to guarantee your session

in the gloaming

I told a friend and client today that I had a couple new frames of Ares I loved but I didn’t want to over do the blog with my bean.  Her reply, “I like them, you can’t overdo it I don’t think”  which made me feel great and so I am sharing my bean, taken...

six years

My Bean turned six just a few days ago, that and his first loose (and now lost) tooth.  A couple pretty big milestones (who knew your kid losing a tooth could be so freaking exciting. But it WAS!)  He let me take these on his actual birthday and didn’t give me too much grief about...
