animal lover • photo taker • oreo addict

My name is Melissa Minkner and I have been photographing women for 10 years in Colorado. I have always been drawn to the beauty of bare skin and started my boudoir journey when I was 18. After suffering from my own personal struggles, I booked a boudoir shoot for myself. I battled so much with the all too familiar, "I am not enough". I was at the very lowest in my life and my images had given me strength to stay true to myself, and to be proud of it.
I am passionate about giving that type of peace to every person who comes to me. You are enough, I am enough, and we, are ENOUGH!

Lead Hair and Makeup Artist

I have been involved in the beauty industry for nearly a decade. Having started my career working with a prestigious makeup brand and gaining invaluable skills, I constantly sought out more opportunities and began working with local photographers and became published as a makeup artist. Besides specializing in bridal and boudoir makeup, I am also a licensed esthetician in Colorado. My love for my artistry and passion for the business are evident as I truly strive to bring out the natural beauty in each person I have the pleasure of working with.

"Melissa is so fun through the whole process, and creative. She took a VERY general idea of what I wanted and turned into reality. I did this shoot for me and for fun, and I can't wait to see the rest!"
