About Me
- Melanie McHale
- Terrigal, NSW, Australia
- I have been a photographer for 20 years, travelling the world, meeting amazing interesting people and working with some fun, happy families and children. Beachcombing and photography have always been passions of mine. I love wandering along windswept beaches finding treasures that have been washed up on the shore. I am a professional photographer offering creative and candid images of people and places. My photographs tell a story and capture the essence of life. I offer child, family and adult portraiture along with documentary style images of community events, festivals and travel destinations. I hope you enjoy looking through my recent work :o) with love Melanie

A little miracle
Over the long weekend our family celebrated a Christening for darling little Ewan. He is a total dream, full of smiles and serenity. He truly is the quietest little baby I have ever seen and he enjoyed lots of hugs and quality time with his grandfather and aunt who met him for the first time, along with the rest of the family. Grandpa sang Irish songs and baby Ewan was transfixed, this meeting of generations gave me goose bumps -truly magic!

Secret Garden Vows
What a magical wedding I was lucky enough to photograph in the sun dappled gardens at St Fiacre's Fragrant Gardens in Terrigal. Bubbles, dancing, flowers, music, laughter, faeries and two blissfully happy people in love and ready to start the next chapter of their lives, with their beautiful daughters. I love LOVE!!!!! :o)

Copacabana Nipper Carnival
Summer = Nippers.
I love Nippers! The kids are so focussed and excited and so willing to compete and have fun in the sun and surf! I recently went along to the Nipper Carnival at Copa which was so colourful, yet the air was filled with nervous tension as the water was FREEZING and the competition was hot, with clubs competing from all along the Coast. Unfortunately our Club, Wamberal didn't go too well, but boy! they didn't give up.
Heres a story of the days events :o)

Colours of Tasmania
Tasmania is severely under-rated!!! It has so many sides to it - lush rainforests, wild, harsh mountains, incredible caves with glow worms, penguins... and incredible vibrant colours! The history of the place blew me away and I loved seeing my great great grandmothers grave in Launceston - very moving!
My favourite though were these rocks and the colours! Its like an artist has come and painted them and stained the sea blue and bleached the sand. Gorgeous!

Wildflower wonder
We celebrated a wonderful start to the New Year in Tasmania, and discovered soo many hidden treasures!! Everywhere we went the colours blew me away!!! One of the highlights was finding this secret field of daisies which the boys loved! At first they said, "playing in flowers is for girls!", but once they saw me dancing amongst them, in they came!!! xoxox
