Melissa Joy Creative is a Frome-based wedding photography specialist dedicated to telling the story of your day with warmth, clarity and attention to feeling. As a photographer who centres weddings as her primary focus, Melissa approaches every celebration with an eye for honest emotion: the quiet looks, the unscripted laughter, and the small gestures that turn moments into memories. Her goal is to deliver professional wedding photos that feel like you — candid, considered and beautifully composed. Why choose Melissa Joy Creative? Because you’ll get a photographer who treats your wedding as a story to be honoured, not an assembly line of posed shots. Melissa blends a calm, unobtrusive presence with a thoughtful directing style when needed, helping couples feel relaxed in front of the camera. That balance means she captures the genuine atmosphere of your ceremony and reception while still creating flattering, gallery-ready images you’ll treasure. What makes Melissa’s approach special is her commitment to connection and craft. She listens closely to your priorities — whether you want a documentary record of the day, intimate bridal portraits, or a mixture of both — and tailors her approach to suit your wedding personality. Lighting, composition and timing are handled with care, so each frame reflects the emotion and detail that matters most: family embraces, candid smiles, and the unique moments only those present can remember. How she works with couples: Melissa values clear communication and a relaxed working relationship. From initial enquiry through your gallery delivery, she focuses on making the process straightforward and supportive. On the day, she aims to be a friendly, steady presence who blends into the flow of your celebration while capturing the decisive moments. For couples who want it, Melissa also offers complementary wedding video as a secondary service — a supportive addition that brings motion and sound to your visual story without overshadowing the photography focus. Rooted in Frome and serving couples across the UK, Melissa Joy Creative specialises in wedding and engagement photography with a skill for capturing authentic, emotional images. If you’re looking for a wedding day photographer who prioritises your story, atmosphere and joy, Melissa brings creativity, care and a calm confidence to your day.
