My style of photography is a mixture of fine art and documentary. It is natural, honest, authentic and timeless. Lover of light, shadows & colour! Inspired by the great outdoors and avid tea drinker.
Not only talented beyond belief Melissa is also a delightful person, who became a friend following our fabulous yet quite precarious pre-wedding shoot in the snow-covered Lake District. Her exquisite shots of our winter wedding captured the essence of the day perfectly. All the images are so stunning, it was a challenge to narrow it down for our album. We look back regularly on the photos and are still amazed by how incredible Melissa made us and the day look.

It is difficult to explain how wonderful Melissa is in so little words. She made our day so special! She is friendly, funny, creative and caring. It felt like she was a close friend at our wedding, we loved her so much. The photos were even better than expected, she went above and beyond to make sure out photos were bespoke and personal.

I knew from the outset that I just had to have Melissa as my photographer. Melissa was just a dream to work with. She is friendly, relaxed and helped us to stay calm. Most of the time we didn't even realise she was snapping away. My final image blew me away! The photos capture all the love and laughter that was shared with us and every image is visually stunning - I felt like the images belonged in the pages of a bridal magazine.

Melissa Beattie. I found her lovely work searching for photographers in Cumbria. We were so lucky to work with her. From the beginning and throughout the entire process she was so easy-going, calm and just a joy to work with. She spent time getting to know us and really listened to what was important to us. So many people commented how amazing she was - super kind and interesting to chat to but also really low-key in getting photographs. I felt super rushed the morning of the wedding trying to organise everyone and didn’t have the time I wanted to get ready and felt like my make up wasn’t necessarily the best it could have been but Melissa managed to capture some beautiful moments and give us pictures that we absolutely love and cherish. She is a dream to work with!
