SWFL-BASED MULTI-PASSIONATE CREATIVE.
Hi, I’m Melanie Mae Williamson, and I’m a multi-passionate creative with an endless love for music (and an unapologetic obsession with my two sweet cat princes!).
Growing up, my mother was the coolest person in the world to me (still is!), and so when I saw her with a camera everywhere she went, I knew it was what I wanted to do.
I’ve been shooting in some form for as long as I can remember, professionally since 2013, and music-focused since 2019.
I'm based out of Punta Gorda, Florida, and love to travel!

The Coursing
If you have a band, you need Melanie. She is super skilled with both live performance shots and promo shots. Melanie's pictures give your EPK, website, and social media a professional look. She is super easy to work with and, as a fan of music, knows exactly what you are looking for. We highly recommend Melanie Mae!
Orphan Riot
Good live photography is hard to come by, and Melanie delivers in a big way. We hired her for some music venue shots and we've booked her for another date already.
Faster On Fire
All of us here at #R77 cannot express how blown away we are. You captured our passion, anger, joy, and energy in a way no one has in our 5 years of making music. Thank you; you are truly gifted.
Rocket 77
Working with Melanie is an awesome experience. She's a go-getter who comes up with amazing shots and creative ways to execute different live and promotional material. If you're ever in need of a photographer for music and non-music related things I highly suggest reaching out to Melanie as she is professional and has done photography for local and industry legends.
