“My name is Melissa and I am a photographer based out of Los Angeles, California. I have always been in love with photography and taking pictures since picking up a camera at the age of 7. I hope to one day become an editorial and fashion photographer, and have my work showcased around the world. I also want to inspire people to chase after their dreams and passions, and not be discouraged by what others may say. We have one life to live, and we may as well try to live our best life.”
