Candid, documentary-style wedding photography for couples in Tampa and destination weddings worldwide.
YOLO.
Yeah, I said it — because your wedding day only happens once.
No do-overs. No “let’s try that again.” Just one real, emotional, unforgettable day — and you deserve to actually be in it, not stressing over every little detail. That’s where I come in.
As a Tampa wedding photographer, I’m here to keep things calm, natural, and completely you. I’ll fix the flyaways, keep things moving, and capture everything as it truly happens — from the big emotional moments to the quiet in-between ones.
Because the best photos aren’t staged — they’re felt.

Kind words from my couples:
“Melissa is truly an amazing photographer!
My husband and I eloped to New York from Sweden in May 2019. Since we live in another country it was quite hard to plan everything ahead. We knew we wanted a photographer to capture our day and I had an idea of what style I wanted. I got in contact with Melissa and I’m SO happy and beyond lucky we got her as our wedding photographer. Through the whole planning process, she was more than helpful and made me feel safe about that everything would be just fine. If you want to be in control of your day and feel relaxed about getting amazing photos, Melissa is your go-to-photographer. Especially if you love the old-school vintage style. She really listened to our thoughts and requests and delivered photos that we will treasure through our whole lives. I can’t thank her enough for keeping our memories safe through her lens. Last but not least, both Melissa and her husband were so kind and warm-hearted and professional at the same time.”
“M.A.D. Images, Inc. was the best decision of my wedding planning life. Melissa was the linchpin of our wedding (minus the amazing union between me and my husband)! Melissa is a pro through and through. Her eye for detail, for lighting, etc. is uncanny - she is a natural and the results are absolutely breathtaking. But even beyond her amazing work, it is her attitude - she made us feel so relaxed and she was incredibly flexible. From start to finish she had high energy, was all about us, and downright FUN. I honestly love her so much. She is a hustler and she takes the most unique, romantic photos. Our family and friends can not stop talking about how gorgeous the photos turned out - not to mention, Melissa works super hard to get previews out right away (such an exciting thing to have some pictures so quickly). I could not be more happy with the entire experience. There was even one point in the night where things were getting a little stressful (table cloths missing, or something), and Melissa swooped in and kept me and my husband calm. The first thing you should do when wedding planning is book M.A.D. IMAGES, INC.”
“Melissa Is The Best! She Drove Two Hours Away To Shoot My Wedding In The Middle Of The Freezing Woods, She Even Came Out Ahead Of Time To Make Sure She Had The Right Location And Came Hours Early The Day Of! She’s Open To Any Ideas You Have In Mind. She’s Been Spoiling Me With Sneak Peeks And We Cannot Wait To See The Rest!
”
“Where do I even start....Melissa absolutely blew our minds from the start of our engagement shoot to now receiving our wedding photos. My husband and I were kind of nervous going into our engagement shoot and we were so blown away by Melissa’s energy and direction. She really made us feel comfortable throughout our engagement shoot, and once we got the pictures back, we were even more impressed. We knew immediately that she was our wedding photographer. Melissa is so professional but also a breath of fresh air and super fun! The way she uses natural light and edits is just so impressive. She was so quick to respond anytime we had any questions or needed anything, which puts any stressed out bride at ease. The day of the wedding I just can’t tell you how impressed we were. She was very thorough but wasted no time. She was so efficient while taking our family portraits/ bride and groom portraits. We actually finished pictures ahead of schedule! My husband especially was very happy to not spend hours in front of the camera. We just received and looked through all of our wedding photos and we are so blown away. Her artistic vision was beyond what we expected for our wedding photos. You can just feel her passion for what she does Melissa captured every single important moment of the whole evening. The photos are absolutely breathtaking and we can’t wait to order some prints and an album! We will definitely be working with Melissa for all of our important life events in the future!! 20/10 would recommend MAD images inc!!!”
