After graduating film school at NYU, Melissa Blackall spent two years engaged in national service with the traveling AmeriCorps NCCC program. Infected with wanderlust, she then moved to Alaska where she continued to develop her photography skills.
She started Melissa Blackall Photography (MBP) in 2007 while living in Washington, DC. As her business grew, she moved back to her home state of Massachusetts. Melissa is currently based in Somerville, MA and continues to shoot for clients all over the country and beyond.
She applies her diverse artistic background (writing, directing, and filmmaking) during every shoot. Whether she's photographing a lecture, performance, corporate executive or family, she's always looking for authentic moments. She finds beauty in capturing what connects people to what they do and love.
She's also dedicated to exploring relationships within and to nature. You can see her conservation photography and filmmaking here: WildLinks.Org
