“I can’t say enough great things about Michelle!”
Kayla + Jeb
She did our engagement pictures and our wedding and they all came out so beautiful. She made both of us feel really comfortable, while still forcing us to get out of our comfort zones to get great shots… I will cherish the investment we made with her for my whole life.”
“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.

“She is amazing to work with.”
Her communication was incredible from the time we inquired to receiving our final photos. She is amazing to work with - extremely easy going and fun! She made my partner and I feel extremely comfortable in front of the camera with candid poses that truly captured our love naturally on camera.

Asked & Answered
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).
