Wedding photography that lets you effortlessly live the day you’ve been dreaming of
Your love deserves an all-day, all-out celebration, not a rushed series of moments squeezed into a few hours that leaves you wondering where it all went.
Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime experience with the love of your life, so it's natural to have some essential questions…
With many years of experience photographing in diverse settings my calm presence helps keep your day flowing smoothly and the documentary-with-guidance approach ensures you'll receive breathtaking photos that feel genuinely "you", because they are.
What makes your approach different from other photographers?
I've developed a gentle approach that helps you feel comfortable from the first click. I'll guide you with easy prompts that bring out genuine smiles and natural interactions, turning what could be an awkward experience into one of the most enjoyable parts of your day.
What if I we feel awkward in front of the camera?
With my full-day coverage approach, you never have to worry about missing those fleeting moments. From getting ready with your friends to your last dance, I'll be there documenting all the tears, the laughter, and all those in-between moments you might otherwise miss.
How will I make sure we capture all the meaningful moments?
I’m Michelle— and I know you don’t want just any photographer; you want someone you jive with and who will make your life way easier. That’s why I’m not a vendor that needs to be directed on where to be or what to do. Someone who can read a room, your energy, and who’ll know what next steps are needed and guide you along the way.

My absolute favorite wedding so far was with a couple who connected with me like friends, we even went bar hopping in Nashville afterward! They truly trusted me with their day and gave me creative freedom to capture real moments, not Pinterest poses. The result? Photos showing their genuine laughter, personalities, and relationships. They immediately recognized themselves in those images, and that's what I aim for in every wedding: creating photos where you truly see your love story reflected back at you.
So add the personal touches, take that adventure, wear that second dress. Your wedding should feel like the best party of your life!
I encourage you to envision the best day of your life, a true celebration of your love, and when you think you've gone too far, go even further.

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 that fit our budget, and 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 is someone who is so super sweet and an absolute pleasure to work with!

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!
Mariah and Sean
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.
Louise and Chris
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!!!

Q2: How do we reserve our date?
A: With a signed contract detailing what you can expect from me and a 50% retainer, once complete I'll be locked in for your date
A: Yes, I'm Alaska based but have photographed weddings in Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Georgia and London. So if you're getting married outside of Alaska I would love to photograph your day.
