Melinda Smith is Ridgeway’s Digital Artist and John’s assistant. She takes his images, develops them and “pretties them up” for the client’s to see. Melinda’s education is in graphic arts and has worked for a couple of other portrait studios before coming to work for the best studio. 
Melinda and her husband, Brian had a baby boy in Decedmber of 2009, Nathan. He is adorable, of course. Melinda is a girl after my own heart…she loves jewelry, even though she steals most of it from her mother. Not fair!!!! I have to go and buy mine, but I do have to say that she has excellent taste.
We have been lucky enough to have Melinda be with us for almost four years. She is talented and we are glad to have her as part of the Ridgeway team.
