Hello,
I am Melanie, a professional photographer based in Boerne, Texas.
A sixth generation Texan, I have lived all over the state from the panhandle to the coast. I love travel, hiking, fly fishing, and documenting life with my camera.
With 26 years teaching math & art and 13 years as a photographer, I bring a unique blend of people skills and camera knowledge to every photo shoot.
How Teaching art influenced my journey as a photographer...
My work in the arts had a big impact on my desire to grow as a photographer. I became so passionate about western art that I'm still chasing great cowboy photos in my retirement!
FROM REFERENCE PHOTO...
As a high school art teacher, I made many trips to the Kokernot o6 Ranch in with Shooting West Texas Photography Workshops so that I could gather reference images for my students' art.
