My Story

Hi, I’m Melissa the photographer, editor, marketer, customer relations, social media manager and whatever else it takes to be behind the camera and name “Melissa Rebecca Photography”.

The reality is I’m a farmer’s daughter that loves the craic and making people smile. I don’t take life too seriously and always up for a good laugh. Some things that bring me joy is walks in the country side with my wee mummy and my pet rabbit “Marmalade” and hamster “Mabel”. If you haven’t figured it out yet I’m a big animal lover. Special discount if you have an alpaca! (as long as you let me pet it).

There once was a time that I thought I was going to be the next David Attenborough. This is where my love for photography started... Wildlife! Having travelled all over the UK and my photos being featured by the BBC, you can rest assured that I have the skills, knowledge and talent to provide you with top quality photography.

Animals are cute and all but they didn’t fulfil my need to capture authentic memories and bring people joy. I love seeing people smile, laugh and giggle through my lens. Happy people make me happy. I’m a very sentimental person and I know how important it is to capture the moments and memories so that they will last a lifetime and more. This is why I began photographing the most important day of a person’s life... Their wedding day!

I recently got engaged myself to the wonderfully talented, Kyle! He is a wedding videographer and I’m very grateful that most couples chose him to record their wedding day too. As a bride to be myself I know how stressful planning a wedding can be, thats why Kyle and I have simplified things and offer a combined photography and videography package.

I hope your wedding planning process is going smoothly and allow me to congratulate you both on the beginning of such a special journey!
