the girl behind the camera
Hi, my name is Melanie Napier, but please call me Mel.
I'm a friendly country girl at heart, having grown up on a cattle station in Millaroo, west of Ayr. My love of photography began as a child, snapping wildlife and birds - even if they often turned out as tiny specks once the film was developed (sorry mum!). That passion never left me.
These days, I balance life as a full-time IT professional with my creative heartwork: photography. From capturing treasured family memories to the beauty of landscapes and the professionalism of commercial shoots, photography is what keeps me grounded.
I hold a Bachelor of Business Administration and am lucky to share life with my wonderful husband, two grown boys, their partners and a beautiful granddaughter. Through Melanie Napier Memories & Photography, I aim to create keepsakes you'll treasure - heartfelt, honest and full of life.
I'd love to help you tell your story through my lens📷❤️
