"We had the absolute best time with Michelle. She made us feel incredibly comfortable the whole time and she is a wonderful communicator! She made the whole experience so memorable for me and my husband. She is so genuine and kind! We are SO happy with our photos and we will definitely book with Michelle again in the future!"
Meghan & Sean
Michelle is one of those people you meet that you feel like you’ve known forever. We always feel awkward posing for photos, but when we met her for our engagement shoot it felt like we were old friends hanging out. Not only is she amazing at capturing your day, but she listens to your inspo, photo styles you love and executes it beautifully! Michelle truly made our wedding memories perfect for us and her overall warmth, friendship, talent and professionalism cant be beat.
"The photos we got were straight out of a fairy tale or magazine. Michelle turned our dreams into reality… She was fun, easy to work with, and made us feel so comfortable. I was nervous and anxious and she made me feel at ease. It ended up being such a sweet and memorable experience. Michelle has a gift and I am so glad that destiny brought us together… She captured our love and relationship perfectly and we are eternally grateful."

Fill out the inquiry form and tell me all about your wedding plans. The date, location, and what matters most to you. This helps me start picturing your day right alongside you.
We’ll hop on a quick call to get to know each other, answer your questions, and talk through your ideas. I’ll share how I can help make your day stress-free, from location tips to timeline suggestions.

Great question. Yes! Wherever your memories take place, I can be there to document them. Some of my upcoming destinations include places like Cancun and Nashville, and the rest of my travel schedule can be found over here. Get in touch so we can talk more about your destination wedding vision.
Documentary with a film-inspired look that centers around the memories. You’ll notice a warmth that peeks through my imagery, channeling the organic tone of film photography. All with true colors and story-driven takes.
You’ll never be limited to a shotlist with me. Instead, I focus on movement and candid imagery to let your emotions shine through. I provide posing guidance for the essential portraits, but will otherwise let you soak in the moment (which makes it easier to love the warm imagery that follows).
Once we have talked through the details on a phone call (book that here!) — or maybe over a coffee — you’ll receive a personalized proposal via email based on the inspiration you shared. Then, your wedding photography package and date will be officially booked with a 50% service retainer and a few signatures.
