Engagement Session-Kelly and Patrick

Kelly and Patrick are getting married this May and I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to photographing their wedding! They were a joy to work with and so sweet. I love engagement sessions because it not only gives the couple a chance to get comfortable in front of the camera, but it also gives us all the opportunity to know one another better. Here's only a handful of my favorites, but you can see more on my Facebook page, or see their slideshow here! Congrats Kelly and Patrick!

Post Wedding Photo Session!

I am working on a special photo project, and I'm looking for a couple willing to put on their wedding dress and suit for a creative and FUN afternoon of photos. You will receive a beautiful stretched canvas to hang in your home and an online cinematic slideshow to share with family and friends on the internet. If you are interested, please email me at melissa@melissadunstan.com!

The Bakty Family

Etsi called me in the fall to take family photographs of her, her brother and boyfriend. Her parents were going to come out too, but, unfortunately, they couldn't make it from Canada. We had a great time and it was so much fun getting to know this great family! Here are only a few of my favorites, you can see more on my Facebook Account and you can see their slideshow here.

Esti is such a beautiful woman with gorgeous eyes! I love this close up of her!

Etsi's brother is a professional ballet dancer. I don't think anyone else could have pulled this off in two feet of snow!

They wanted a Beatles Abby Road photo, so here they are crossing Mt. Elden Street!

I love this one her and John, her boyfriend. What pretty eyes she has!

Featured at WPPI with Canvas on Demand!

I was so honored and humbled to be chosen by Canvas on Demand to be one of their featured photographers at this year's Wedding and Portrait Photographers International trade show this month! It was awesome to see these canvases on display! They also took a testimonial video of me, which should be hilarious since I was SUPER EXCITED! I'll post that link when they send it to me! Thank you Canvas on Demand; you really made my month!

Engagement Session-Shelly and Clay

Shelly and Clay are getting married on October 10, 2010. I've had over 25 inquiries for this date! I was already booked for a wedding on that date, but I did have the opportunity to work with this great couple to do their engagement photos. They are from Alaska, so the cold weather and snow didn't phase them at all! What a great afternoon! I just know their wedding at Morman Lake Lodge is going to be spectacular, especially with Christiana from Peak Events helping them along the way. Here are only a few of my favorites, you can see more on my Facebook Account and their slideshow here!

This is a brand new green wall in downtown Flagstaff, and even though it was narrow and I had to get just the right angle, I think it really looks great!

Love the angle of the building, staircase and clouds in this one!

What a sweet couple!

I joked with them about giving each other Eskimo kisses since they were both in Alaska! :)

How cute are their dogs? :)

It was so pretty out at Thorpe Park! Thanks for a great day Shelly and Clay!
