Embracing All of Who You Are and Celebrating Authentic Beauty, with Mel Watt

Send us a text While originally studying and working as a nurse, Mel Watt knew she needed a shift and decided to study a Diploma of Photography in 2009. Initially, Mel focused her photography business around kids and families.  However, a personally challenging time led Mel to pivot in 2019 and she found a new purpose in helping women celebrate who they are and reclaim their power through black and white, no makeup portraits.
