Ardour Photography & Film By Mel 

I'm Mel, I am the face behind Ardour Photography. 

I'm a family photographer based in Bristol who specialises in Motherhood Photography. Why Ardour? Well, Ardour actually means to have great passion or enthusiasm about something or someone. When I was thinking about what to name my business, I wanted it to have true weight. The word Ardour was perfect! Not only does it represent the passion I have for photography, but also the love you have for your family.

To me images are not just an expense they are a true investment. They are something you can treasure forever allowing you to tell your life story. I believe that an image is a gateway that takes you back to all those warm and magical feelings of a moment in time that would otherwise fade if not captured. 
​
I am so passionate about what I do and I am truly grateful for you allowing me to do what I love. Now let's start capturing your story!
