Elopement and Wedding Photography
Providing authentic, cheerful, and inclusive photography experiences!
Melissa van Ruiten Photography is happy to celebrate diversity,
in love and being,
regardless of race, religion, gender identity,
sexual orientation, age, body type, or ability!
Whether you’re planning an intimate elopement, a daring adventure, or a brilliant celebration surrounded by family and friends, I would be happy to work with you to document every detail of your special day.
I am based in the San Francisco Bay Area, travel often to the PNW, Boston/Cape Cod, and am perfectly willing to travel to your dream location!

Oh heeeeeeey…..
Me: a little awkward, a little sassy, BIG nerd, goofy, cares deeply about kindness and equity, will pet all dogs
You: madly in love with life, enjoys laughing, might hug a tree or two, not afraid of having fun, lives in the moment
“We’re so grateful to have worked with you as our wedding photographer. From our engagement shoot to the BIG day, we felt comfortable and confident in front of your lens.”
