Melissa
With over two decades of experience, Melissa's career in photography began when Raven was born. She had the desire to pick up a canon film camera her grandmother had found at a bus station in 1966. Becoming a mother made her yearn to create images she cherished. She wanted to capture every moment, feeling, and milestone. That yearning and passion to create never left and extended into a career in photography. It is her ultimate desire to capture your story through images that have a deeper meaning.

Raven
During her time at Auburn University, Raven honed in her exquisite hair and makeup skills for all of the lights, camera, and action while performing as a majorette for the Auburn University Tiger Eyes. This gave her invaluable experience in learning how makeup truly transfers on camera. On any given day you can find Raven scouring the aisles of Sephora or creating outfits and obsessing over luxury fabrics for your shoots. Her creative eye, attention to detail, and her superb editing skills (as you can see throughout the portfolio) is the chef's kiss to your final images.

'This was the best thing I could have done for myself. My hair and makeup were both absolutely stunning. Melissa & Raven are just the best. They were so encouraging, empowering, fun, sweet, and caring. They also walked me through everything and coached me with poses every step of the way. I cannot praise them enough. If it were possible to give more than 5 stars, they would get more. If you are thinking about doing a shoot with them, stop thinking and book right now!"

''I cannot even explain how FABULOUS Melissa and Raven are! They are both incredibly kind and thoughtful while also being very professional and detail oriented. I wasn't sure what to expect when doing a shoot like this, but they made me feel so comfortable (they're both so, so fun) while guiding me through the session. My pictures came out INCREDIBLE and I am hoping to do another session with them soon! If I could give 10 stars, I would. You will not regret your decision to book with these ladies.''

''Melissa and Raven made me feel seen, heard and celebrated throughout the entire day and their support gave me the confidence to let the power of my beauty shine through these photos. I have never felt more gorgeous and safe in expressing my feminine sensual super powers and these women are sincerely angels in every way. I wish I could give every woman the gift of shooting with MLC because it allowed me to express and see myself in a way that has changed my life for the better.''

''THANK YOU!! I can’t even describe how happy I was with today. I had so much fun, felt so amazingly beautiful and sexy. I needed this after my break up.
Some of those shots you showed me…I was BLOWN AWAY. I am so excited to see my proofs. I still can’t believe some of those shots were me.
Thank you so much for helping me get out of my own way and out of this break up funk you helped me realize I am a badass bitch! (Yea you know me and I swear! Lol)"''
