To me, photography is, at it's core, a means of connecting to our surroundings and beyond. It's a means of reminding us that the world is not so black and white, to find special insights into the ordinary. My hope is that the way I access the world through the lens can deliver something you and your people will cherish.

My name is Carlmelo (KAR-MEL-OH) - or "Mel" for short. I am a Filipino artist raised in Washington state, and now based in Fort Walton Beach/Destin, Florida.

Having started my artistic literacy as a child, my history of curiosity, playfulness, and a fluid mindsets are attributes that integrate with the professionalism and problem-solving that comes with providing service to a variety of personalities.

I will be able to find a way to work with you in which you feel at ease while getting our work done together. I believe everyone has a charm that can be captured in a way no other medium can.
