Melanie Pullen is an American photographer from New York who is renowned for her work based on 1920’s NYPD and LAPD crime scene files.
Each of her pictures are stylized around real crime scenes derived from police records, in which high fashion attire and use of scenery draws the audiences attention away from the crime and focuses on the different aspects of the work until the victim is noticed and scenarios of how the murder came about is put into play.

Her photos have an aspect of fantasy to them as can be seen in "Blue Water" and "Dorothy", one looking like a murmaid and the other based of a fictional character.
