• 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.

are you watching?

I love the Olympics, I know all the arguments about commercialism, drugging, corruption, and I don’t like how some of the cites deal with finding space for the whole shindig.
But that being said, I still love the Olympics.  We’ve been up as late as we can handle watching them live.  We check up on ESPN...

creativity

I’ve been bombarded lately (wonderfully so) by links and people and information and videos and sites all talking about creativity, all of them agreeing that it is the only hope for our future, that whether someone agrees that art and learning and creativity is important is irrelevant, what is is, the words revolution and change...
