ABOUT
THE HISTORY OF M&M PHOTOGRAPHY
We've spent the last four decades building a business that schools and communities can count on, and we're excited to see what lies ahead in the future.
M&M Photography was founded in 1982 by Mark and Marianne Moulden with the goal of providing high-quality, affordable photography services to the South Hills of Pittsburgh and surrounding areas. From their conveniently located studio in Bethel Park at 4934 Library Road, M&M Photography has built a reputation for delivering exceptional service and beautiful images for a variety of occasions.
The studio is staffed by a dedicated team of both full-time and part-time professionals, allowing them to efficiently accommodate a wide range of client photo requests. The facility features two well-equipped camera rooms and an inviting outdoor space, which includes stone steps, a charming railed fence, lush greenery, and seasonal flowers. This versatile setting enables M&M’s photographers to capture both indoor and outdoor portraits without clients needing to travel to multiple locations, offering a convenient and seamless experience.
Additionally, M&M Photography distinguishes itself as one of the few remaining studios in the area that specializes in print-based photography, ensuring that clients can enjoy the timeless tradition of physical prints to cherish and display. With a legacy of over forty years, M&M Photography continues to serve the local community with dedication and expertise.

THE HEART OF IT ALL
Melissa is a proud mom of three energetic boys and happily married to her wonderful, fun-loving husband. They cherish family time, whether it’s game nights, bike rides, or taking vacations together. The boys keep Melissa and Wes young, and remind them that while the days can feel long, the years truly fly by. It’s a constant reminder to savor every moment! Family is her greatest joy and the reason she strives to balance everything in life. At the end of the day, it’s the laughter, love, and little moments with them that make it all worthwhile.
