My name is Melissa Robin also know as...MR.PHOTO.
I am available for travel worldwide.
I am mainly an on-location photographer.
There is always something churning deep inside of me, something indescribable, something that can’t be spoken or written down, something that can only be captured and created behind my camera. Speaking in photographs. I consider myself a capturer of moments. I photograph to tell a story and for the moments between movements.
My photographic style is considered raw, emotional, & original.

Please read the following series and let me know if you'd be interested in modeling for any of these.
To view all of these series please visit,
www.melissarobinphoto.com and go the art gallery.
DROWN.
This book explores the relationship between humans & water. Both emotional and physical connections between humans and water. My Ideal model for this is some one who normally enjoys being around and in water. I am also shooting in my studio with water. All models must sign a model release form for print & publishing. I am looking for people with strong features & unique characteristics. All size, shapes, and colors are needed for this project.
Fly.
This series is about being free and letting go. I am trying to capture this feeling. With visual representations of flight and flying. (balloons, kites, anything that flies) If you have any sort of flying reference tattooed on you, (birds, feathers, ect.) your perfect for this.
Heart Attack.
This a series I have been building since 2008. This series explores love. The idle period between giving in and opening up. The space between letting go and moving on. To love, to hurt, to fear, is to be human and to have a Heart Attack. I am looking for mainly females, to interpret ideals of love. I am looking to capture the feeling of being loved, being hurt and being scared.
Fine Art Nudes.
I am interested in photographically exploring the beautiful form of the female body, in all its shapes, sizes, and colors. Implied nudes and nude. I am piecing together a series with nude women interacting with nature. (trees,rocks, ect.)
If you are intrigued - please send me a link of photo(s) of you.
also: your full name, age, and email address.
Thank you!
