FASHION PHOTOGRAPHY | MEL TJOENG

 

 

 

 

 

 

Some people have amazing talents. Some people are amazing human beings. Some people are both. 

Melanie Tjoeng is an avid traveller and storyteller. Born in Queensland’s capital city of Brisbane, she spent most of her early years playing in the tepid waters and dense jungles of Papua New Guinea’s Sepik coastal town of Wewak. She has been traversing the globe since she was born and has lived in Hawaii, Mexico, Denmark, Australia and Papua New Guinea. As a learned Anthropologist, her passion for storytelling came naturally and when she discovered her love for the captured image, photography seemed like the perfect calling. 

As of late, she has wandered over to the wondrous world of fashion photography, where the industry invited her magic with open arms. Her body of work is all beautifully whimsical and gives a sense of sweet nostalgia. To lay eyes on her photographs is to fall in-love.
