~I have also created a greeting card line called: "Mindseye by Mel".  You can view some of the images from this line in the gallery.   These cards are being sold weekly at the Monrovia Family Street Festival by the magnificent Faerie Dream Products.  Here is a link to their site: www.faeriedreamproducts.com where you will find delights to nourish your mind, body and soul! 

~ Greetings and Salutations! 

Mel Glad Photography is owned and operated by yours truly, Melisa Glad. 

Seeing photography as art, I love to work with my clients to help them realize their photographic or artistic vision.  My purpose as an artist is to evoke emotion with my images by capturing just that....emotion.

In a world where there has been so little emotion for so long and there is so much emotion breaking free... I wish to capture all I can.  I want to make a difference. 

Mel Glad Photography aims to meet even the most imaginative and challenging photographic needs.  I love to stay creative and spontaneous within the guidelines of the clients vision.

 ~ Thank you for visiting my site.

I do events and weddings.  I also do all kinds of portraiture...from business to family.  I must confess though, my very passion in life is to photograph children.  I specialize in the candid portraiture of children.. for there is nothing more beautiful than a child at play...

So please enjoy browsing, and feel free to contact me via e-mail.  Any questions or ideas?  I would be honored to hear them!  melisaglad@yahoo.com
