Meet the face
behind the posts

"It's one of life's precious gifts to the world; to be able to look at one photo and suddenly spark so many memories that it feels like the magic of a moment is happening all over again for the first time."

​

Melanie Costanzo, aka "Melanie Ventures," is a born and raised proud Ohio native. She loves all things Ohio: Cleveland Sports, hiking the state's metro parks, supporting local artists and entrepreneurs, and stuffing her face inside the local food scene.

​

She received her start at Kent State University where she took a year of graphic design through their Visual Communications Design program. Following, she decided to pursue a photography degree at Cuyahoga Community College. 

​

"I stumbled into photography at a young age. I was always so mesmerized by the invention of a handheld machine that had the capability to "freeze" a moment in time so it could be saved to last forever. It's one of life's precious gifts to the world; to be able to look at one photo and suddenly spark so many memories that it feels like the magic of a moment is happening all over again for the first time."

 

Through color, composition, and a gift for perfect timing,

Melanie captures timeless photography no matter the occasion.
