Professional toddler and family photography of Melissa Deakin

Melissa Deakin is an on-location, natural light photographer in the Buffalo/Western New York area. She specializes in custom portraits of newborns, babies, children, teens and families.

Melissa is a mom to three young boys. She has always loved photography, and has been studying it on her own via the internet and books for quite some time now. It was when her third son was born that she knew she wanted to start her own business.

I just love photographing people and capturing those special moments that are all too fleeting.

That is my goal as a photographer, to capture real life…the way a parent looks at his/her child, the way a brother and sister play and interact with each other, a child’s infectious giggle, a newborn’s perfectly tiny toes.
