After a little break for the holidays, I jumped right back into the swing of things with a portrait session on December 28th! Brianna had e-mailed be before Christmas about setting up a session for her mother, Renee, and her beautiful warmblood/Thoroughbred, Chance. Photographs are such a thoughtful gift that lasts YEARS after the hour […]

2016 was both crazy and wonderful. Looking back on the past year brings up some great memories. I met tons of amazing people and their beautiful ponies. I traveled to places I’ve never been and flew on a plane alone for the first time. I made the decision to go part-time at my reliable office […]

I wanted to put together a look back on all my sessions in 2016! I love seeing the evolution of Melissa Gebert Photography over the past year and can’t wait to see where it takes me in 2017. Enjoy this little trip down memory lane! To book a session of your own and see yourself […]

Caleb’s senior photos had been in the works months beforehand! Of course, the original date we picked ended up being an awful rainy day, so we rescheduled for late afternoon a few days later. We caught the tail end of golden hour light and it ended up being perfect timing. These photos are extra special […]

Here is Emma’s senior session with Rocket from earlier this fall! It is so crazy to see kids I have watched grow up head into senior year. Emma and I had fun finding locations around the barn to take photos, and Rocket was a willing participant. I think he even has a little bit of […]

Back in March, Ashley contacted me about photographing their wedding in North Carolina. Of course, I immediately said “YES!”, and then jumped on Kayak.com to figure out the best way to get myself to NC. Six months, two flights, and a rental car later, I made it!Dwight and Ashley had the most fun wedding I […]

When I arrived for Kaylah’s senior session, I found out she and her horse Rice walked several MILES to our location! If that isn’t dedication, I don’t know what is. Clearly it was worth the journey!I had so much fun photographing these two. They were total naturals! Combining a beautiful location with two wonderful subjects […]

When Chasidy first talked to me about doing her senior photos, I was so thrilled! Her session at Pemaquid Beach in New Harbor resulted in some of my favorite photos EVER. She is such a natural model! Chasidy, I hope you have a wonderful senior year. I am so excited to see where the future […]

Around the same time I held my 500 Facebook Likes giveaway, Sarah was coming back from New Jersey with this beautiful guy! I am convinced D’Artagnan is a real-life unicorn. As someone who browses the CANTER website daily, meeting him did not help with my off-the-track Thoroughbred obsession. It is much easier to work around the […]

I’m in love with how in love these two are. They are real life #relationshipgoals! After photographing their proposals, it was only natural I photograph their engagement session! Don’t worry, I will be at the wedding too! If I can still hold a camera when I’m 80, I’ll probably even be photographing them at the nursing […]
