HEARTFELT  BRANDING SESSIONS

Imagine, you’re surrounded by blue water, the gentle shhh-ing of trees and luminous sky. There’s a dusting of magic on everything. You’re relaxed and connected and listening to your heart’s voice. You’re being photographed in your best light by a kind soul (me) and you barely notice the camera.

Photos that feel like YOU.

Photos that feel like YOU.

HEARTFELT Branding Sessions focus on what is true + beautiful about you.

I work with purpose driven creatives + changemakers to create beautiful and authentic visual content to reach your audience with heart and soul.

I believe the purpose of a photograph is to communicate a feeling and a truth. If you feel freedom, peace, joy, or love in your photos, your audience will feel this, too. And, when your truth resonates with others, you make an impact.

“The most magical part of working with Melanie is how she connects with you from her heart. I was left not only with new energy and excitement for my business, but also a boost to my personal sense of vitality, interconnection, purpose and passion for my work.”

Melanie Gordon Toronto Fine Art Photographer

MY PASSION IS TO CREATE

SO WE CONNECT.

I help people feel like themselves in photographs. My photographs live at the intersection of wonder and tenderness. Here we make connections together, because making art is always a collaboration. My mission as a photographer is to reflect what is true and beautiful, and in so doing, to help people feel seen and felt.

I’ve been exploring humanness for 30 years—from my anthropology degree to my work as a portrait and documentary photographer, and in my art practice, photographing my own motherhood experience as I healed from breast cancer.

My fine art photography and short films have been supported by the Canada Council for the Arts, the Ontario Arts Council, and the Laidlaw Foundation. My photographs have been exhibited in Canada and internationally, and commissioned by leaders who are committed to building peace and improving children’s wellbeing. Four books have been published of my portraits. I live in Toronto with my husband and two daughters.
