Welcome to my website! My name is Melanie Montoya and am a newborn photographer in Albuquerque NM and surrounding areas. I specialize in Newborn and Maternity photography. Babies hold a special place in my heart and I believe that Newborn images become your most precious heirlooms for generations to come.
