I’ve been keeping kind of a big secret… 🤍
Moments with Melanie Photography has officially relocated to Eastern North Carolina, and I’ll now be serving the Inner & Outer Banks area! 🌊
Columbia, SC will always hold such a special place in my heart. Starting my business there changed my life, and I’ve met so many incredible people over the years. Your support, trust, and encouragement helped me grow this business into what it is today, and I’m endlessly grateful for every single one of you.
This definitely isn’t goodbye though! I’ll still be coming back to South Carolina from time to time, continuing to do weddings and running my most popular mini sessions throughout the year. If you’re currently booked with me, not to worry, I’ll still be traveling back and forth just like I have been these past few weeks. I also have some dates available while I am in town if anyone wants to grab those last few for a session please reach out.
A little backstory on our move because it still feels surreal… we actually thought we were staying in South Carolina. Back in November, we found a house on the coast and completely fell in love with it. We put in an offer and lost it, so we took it as a sign that maybe we were meant to stay. Then in April, the house unexpectedly came back on the market after the previous offer fell through. If we wanted it, we had to move fast… so we sold our home and moved within two weeks (which was honestly a little hectic 😅).
Sometimes life gives you unexpected opportunities, and sometimes you just have to take the chance. 🤍
I’m so excited for this next chapter — beach sessions, coastal weddings, and continuing to capture beautiful moments along the East Coast. So if you find yourself vacationing in the Outer Banks or Virginia Beach and would love a beach family session while you’re there, please reach out! ☀️
