Melissa Maggio is a photographer based in central New Jersey who is currently enrolled at Mason Gross at Rutgers University, New Brunswick.

I fully began my photography journey when I was in High School and it has become my main medium for artistic expression since. For as long as I can remember I enjoyed taking pictures and creating moments to document, even as a child I would constantly take my parents camera and create staged photographs using sheets as backdrops and toys as subjects. My love for photography has grown since having the opportunity to study at Mason Gross School of the Arts where I have gained so much knowledge on the craft. I work with a range of portraiture and landscape photography and am always willing to experiment and try something new.
