Today we're checking in with Melissa Dunne! In her last appearance on the show in 2023, we talked about how she got her start, the lessons she learned, and the creative path that led her forward. Today, she returns to share how her career has evolved into art direction, what it means to shape a brand’s visual identity, and the creative decisions that go into every photoshoot.
As the Art Director and Creative Content Manager at Nic+Zoe, Melissa leads brand strategy and provides on-set direction for photoshoots in New York and Boston. Join us as we dive into her journey, her approach to storytelling through visuals, and what she’s learned along the way.
