Recently she began directing and producing her own productions, directing models into creative poses and bringing to life original and creative shoot concepts. Melissa met Lily Marcheschi, a stunning 5’11”, thirteen year old girl, in a restaurant. She immediately realized Lily’s power-house combination of stellar bone structure, piercing eyes, and her long dancers frame was exactly what she needed to succeed in the industry. Marcheschi’s playful side, her love of food, and dance and acting, brought photos to life and under Melissa’s wing she’s on her way to reaching her full potential.
