Head and shoulders portrait of Charleston Wedding Photographer Mell Bell

Mell Bell | Photographer

Let’s be honest.
Getting your photo taken is awkward.
It’s weird.

The good news is: I am too.

My secret:
lean into the awkward.
Lean hard enough and
it turns into real happiness
and maybe friendship.

I live for that moment.

I know how to help you feel comfortable
in front of a camera
and in your own skin,
so you can really be yourself.

I love eye crinkles and giant laughs
and that twinkle in the eye
like my dad had.

I don’t have many photos of him,
so when I see that kind of look

I don’t miss.

I’m nice. If you’re nice let’s do this.
