About Melanie Orr Photography
The Woman Behind the Lens
Hey, my name is Ember! <3
I’m one of the lucky ones whose purpose was made clear, early on.My grandfather was James Bond, a spy for Mi5 and a photographer. My two aunties were also photographers so working with camera’s is in my bloodline. I played with my mothers camera when I was kid and my jr. high art teacher made a special photo program just for me when the department had shut down.
I learned on film.Shot my first wedding on black & white film in 2005, which deepened my love for storytelling. I love, love! Capturing people, weddings, businesses, and artists, it's incredibly intimate work.
I am humbled and honored each and every time someone chooses to work with me. I aim to never take this gift for granted. Giving all my presence and years of experience to each client.

Here's my philosophyI capture the essence of the world through the lens of intuition.
My photography philosophy is a celebration of the human spirit, a journey to capture the very essence of individuals immersed in their passions. Through intuitive guidance, I seek to unveil the raw, unfiltered moments where passion ignites the soul and turns it into art. Every click of the shutter is a testament to the infinite beauty found within the pursuit of one's true calling, and my lens is a bridge that connects the world to the profound.
