Today I wandered along a deserted beach.....wandering, watching, smelling and picking up little shells. I felt sooo at peace and happy. There was a little crisp breeze, the sea was so calm and a sailing boat skimmed along the ocean heading North. I lay back with my face to the sun and saw an eagle soar above. The grass swayed and I stayed.
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)
