Today, with over a decade of experience and an unwavering love for my craft, I've transformed that passion into a thriving career. With a bustling household, three kids, three Boston terriers, a cat, and even a chicken, my life is an exhilarating balancing act. Alongside my husband's engineering firm and our two local Airbnbs, we constantly seek adventure and new horizons. Whether it's freezing cherished family moments, capturing the essence of a newborn, or seeking captivating family portraits, I'm thrilled to be your go-to photographer for those extraordinary memories you hold dear.
Hi, I'm Melissa
am Melissa, the passionate force behind MLoueez Photography—a journey that began when I embraced motherhood and endeavored to preserve every precious moment of my children's lives.
I
After graduating from high school, I pursued my love for Fine Arts at the University of Arizona. Following a career as a Graphic Designer, I moved back to Kingman with a growing family, seeking a stronger connection to our roots.
With the birth of my first child, I yearned for a creative outlet and discovered the power of photography. The desire to freeze fleeting moments in time became my passion, leading me to invest in professional equipment and capture cherished memories for others. Today, as my children have grown, they even lend a hand during some of my photography sessions.
Being a photographer has been an incredible journey, filled with both ups and downs, but the joy of preserving memories for my clients is truly rewarding. My deep love for Kingman and the profound impact of family connections continue to inspire me in my craft.
My background story
orn in Mildenhall, UK, and raised in Kingman, AZ, I've always been surrounded by a tight-knit community that I deeply cherish.

A Look into my
Life
1 / 2
In the depths of my heart, my favorite things are my children, nephews, and nieces—the essence of my family. Every moment spent with them is a treasure that fuels my soul. However, life's journey presented me with the unimaginable pain of losing a niece last year—a heart-wrenching experience that tested my strength to its core. The profound grief of losing a precious loved one, particularly someone so young, has deeply transformed my perspective as a photographer. It has infused my work with a profound sense of purpose and meaning, as I strive to capture and preserve the fleeting beauty of life for others, cherishing every precious memory with utmost reverence.
