Testimonials
We wanted some family photos that captured our connection to Hong Kong. Mel's energy, patience and creativity in finding some local spots with two young kids in the 30 degree heat was stress free.
We were super impressed with the final results, kids in a light we'd never seen.
Mel has a skill in capturing natural, authentic family moments and her persistence paid off.
We would absolutely recommend her for any family occasions.

We had our first family photo shoot as a family of four and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Melissa Scott is one of the easiest photographers to work with - warm, patient, professional and effortlessly natural in the way she pout everyone at ease, kids included. She quietly worked her magic, while we were simply together as a family having fun!
Classic Hong Kong delivered all four seasons in one hour: rain, sunshine, overcast skies, and dramatic black clouds. Melissa rolled with every change, making the most. of every moment and somehow made every back drop work in our favour.
The photos speak for themselves - candid, beautifully captured, and full of genuine emotion. She didn't just document the shoot, she created an experience for our family which is very memorable.
We would recommend her in a heartbeat.

Working with Mel has been amazing!
We're Southpaw, a boxing and Muay Thai gym in central. We've been in business since 2020, but it's only now that we finally feel our brand is starting to come together and be properly reflected in our content.
We tried out Mel for a project and instantly knew we wanted to keep her around - we offered her a monthly retainer pretty much right away. She's incredibly easy to work with and her enthusiasm for what she does really shows.
What really stands out is her eye for shots. Mel doesn't just execute what we ask for - she actively helps with the creative direction too, which has been invaluable. She brings ideas to the table and genuinely elevates our work.
Another huge plus is how personable she is. Our clients can sometimes be a bit shy or awkward in front of the camera, but Mel has this way of putting them at ease that makes the whole process so much smoother. It's a skill that's hard to find and makes a real difference in the final results.
We've worked with multiple photographers before, but Mel provides the most value by far. She's already been crucial in improving our online presence, and we're seeing the impact of her work in how we're able to present ourselves.
Honestly can't recommend her enough. If you need a photographer and videographer who's talented, collaborative, and great with people, Mel's your person!

Testimonials
We worked with Melissa on a shoot for AND SCULPT and the results were excellent. What stood out was how she captured the raw energy of our hot sculpt classes - the sweat, the movement, the flow state. Looking at the images, you feel like you're in the room, in it with the class. That's not easy to get in a hot, fast-moving studio.
She was completely professional throughout, easy to work with, and clearly knows how to shoot fitness and movement specifically. We'd absolutely work with her again and would recommend her to any studio or brand looking for editorial-quality fitness content.

My family and I had a great time doing our family photoshoot with Mel around Victoria Harbour and the Star Ferry.
Mel was so good with our children, and even managed to get some genuine smiles from our youngest which is a challenge.
Her photography style is creative and flexible, and the photos she took for us really capture the energy and vibe of our family.
I highly recommend Mel for your next family shoot.

Mel is a friendly and easygoing photographer, which made the session feel relaxed and comfortable. She gave clear direction on poses and offered helpful guidance throughout the shoot. I really appreciated her encouraging feedback. The edited photos were delivered quickly, and I was happy with the final results.
