ask me a question

I am Melissa, the owner of Melissa Sampson Photography. I have a beautiful daughter, supportive husband and a household full of chaos which also includes one dog and two cats along with foster animals from time to time. To date, my work has been published in Shutter Up Magazine, front page Feature of The Photograp{her} Magazine and has been a two time Feature for Brand Model Magazine.

Some other things I enjoy include:
- Being outdoors
- Fostering kittens & puppies
- Spending time with family

Some fun facts about me:
- I grew up in East Grand Forks
- I was on the equestrian team in college
- Uggs are my choice in footwear in the winter
- My cat is named after Cleopatra

I started my photography business as a creative outlet for me outside of my full time job. My dream job would be to go full time as a newborn photographer. I would love to connect with you! Click below to find out more information or to schedule your session.
