Your Wedding Day Will Be One of the Best Days of Your Life. You Deserve to Be Present for It.
Imagine laughing with your people. Holding your partner’s hand during the toast. Catching your mom’s face from across the room. Not once wondering if the photographer got the shot.
That’s what I’m here for. Not to direct your day but to witness it and document it honestly. What you walk away with are photos that still feel like you. Real. Warm. Yours.
The kind you’ll pull out in 50 years and feel everything all over again.
Wedding photography collections range from $4,500–$7,300, depending on hours of coverage and whether your celebration extends across multiple days. Travel to Arizona is included.
Every collection is personalized after we talk through your day and what kind of coverage actually makes sense for how you're celebrating.

When I say we could not have had a better experience with a photographer, I'm not exaggerating. When looking for photographers in the area, I really struggled to find any who's style I liked it was a last ditch search that brought me to Michelle - and thank goodness. Michelle made our awkward selves feel so relaxed and comfortable with the camera, not that we would even have been able to notice if she didn't. She was able to blend into the area so well. On top of being amazingly professional, by the end of the week it felt like we had gained another friend into our group.
Truly, you will not regret choosing her for your Wedding Photography, best decision I made for the entire day.

There are not enough thank yous in the world to repay Michelle for making my rainy wedding day the most magical day of my life. Aside from your partner, you truly do spend a lot of 1:1 time with your photographer on your wedding day, and I am SO grateful Michelle was that person. She is extremely friendly, accommodating, welcoming, funny, understanding, and above all- patient!! She helped me plan out my wedding timeline, when and where to get pictures, she guided my husband and I on posing but also let us take a natural lead. Her work is nothing short of incredible. She captured every single detail and moment of my wedding day beautifully. I’ve never been so in love with pictures in my life- they make me tear up!! I never felt so beautiful.
Every time I look back on my pictures, it takes me right back to that very moment, which is exactly what I wanted.

Michelle made our elopement experience better than we ever could have imagined! My husband and I were so nervous going into it thinking that it was going to be awkward, as neither of us are the first ones to want to jump in front of a camera. Turns out we ended up having a wonderful time! Michelle is someone who is so super sweet and an absolute pleasure to work with! She made us feel so comfortable and guided us through the whole thing. We’re both just so thankful we found her and for the beautiful photos she created for us!

Michelle literally made my elopement/intimate wedding happen! My fiancé proposed on Christmas eve, and we already had a two-week Alaskan vacation planned in April. I knew this was short notice, and not the ideal wedding season for Alaska, but I had a dream and let me tell you Michelle heard me and made it happen! I heard back from her within 30 minutes of inquiring, and she was confident our dreams were attainable. Within this short time frame, my partner was injured in an auto accident and we weren't sure our dream wedding was going to happen. Michelle was so patient and understanding, everything worked out and he was approved to fly just a week before our vacation started!
Hire her if you are looking for beautiful natural photos, a comfortable and authentic atmosphere and to walk away with a new bestie!

Michelle is AMAZING at what she does! With both our engagement session and our wedding she was so much fun and so easy to work with! Her warm, natural style was exactly what I was looking for for our fall wedding and she went above and beyond. She captured everything perfectly, all while making everyone feel as if the camera wasn't even there. We received both posed and candid shots and they're all perfect - there's even pictures from each session that I didn't even know we were able to get and I find new ones to love each time I look through them! I would recommend Michelle to anyone looking for fun, unique photos and for a photographer that truly cares about you and capturing who you are as a couple!

Michelle is the first photographer that I have ever worked with. I first met Michelle when Chloe told me that we were doing a photoshoot with her in November. Michelle is outgoing, energetic and knows how to capture the best moments just at the right moment. Once I decided that I was going to propose I knew that I wanted Michelle to capture this moment. I approached Michelle with my proposal idea and she was more than thrilled to be a part of it. Michelle was tasked with the most important part of the plan, which was to get Chloe to agree on doing another “photo shoot”. We spent 3 weeks planning the proposal while keeping it all a secret from Chloe. I can’t wait to work with Michelle again in the future.
She is a great person to shoot with & she sure does know how to get people out of their comfort zone in front of the camera; almost like it’s not there.

Michelle shot some couples photos for us on a glacier! She couldn’t have been a better match to have chosen for our photographer. We spent the whole day together and it was such a pleasure. Her eyes for details, and quick fingers for great candids. Our pictures exceeded my expectations and I have been over the moon drooling at them. She listens to you when you share your vision and what kind of vibe you are looking for! Highly recommend!!!

The reason I fell in love with wedding photography is simple: I wanted couples to have photos that still felt like them. Not just beautiful in the moment, but still warm, still real, still yours decades from now.
Everything about how I show up on your day, the calm presence, the gentle direction, the way I blend in instead of take over, comes back to that. I'm based in Alaska and travel for a small number of weddings each year.
You're based in Alaska — how does that work for a arizona wedding?
What if we care a lot about photos but don’t want the day to feel like it revolves around them?
What if we don’t feel naturally comfortable in front of the camera?
We’re planning more than just one day. Can photography cover the full experience?
That’s exactly the balance I care about most. My approach is built around documenting the day in a way that allows you to stay part of it, so the photographs feel meaningful without taking over the experience.
