Melissa Baerwald

Melissa Baerwald is a family photojournalist. She documents the everyday life of families in the PNW and all that comes with it – the laughter, the tantrums, the quiet moments, the chaos, and all the love in between. She is passionate about photographing real life through honest images that capture your story and the essence of your family. She believes that everyone has a story to tell and that photographs are the best records of time. Melissa sees magic in the small moments that may otherwise go by unnoticed and believes that the messy, chaotic, and unpredictable pockets of time are the most beautiful. She loves to explore our sense of place and document the unique connection each family has to their physical environment at home or in nature. Melissa lives in Seattle with her partner and 2 boys and when she isn’t cheering from the sidelines of a soccer pitch or baseball field, she can be found riding her bike.
