and
Hi friend! I'm so glad you're here!
I'm passionate not only about photographing your family, but in encouraging you to truly ENJOY your family. Photography is amazing because it allows me to show you how beautiful your family is at this EXACT moment in time. Yes- even with the wild toddler! I love to produce images that will help you to remember not only how you all looked, but ones that you will look back on to remember how you all FELT about one another!
From one mom to another, this time is precious and I'm grateful you're here considering having me capture it all for you!
family is one of the greatest gifts there is in this life. They're the reason we work so hard, and at the end of the day, family is the thing that lasts.
I believe
- people come first. Connecting with other moms in this same season of life means so much to me! and building trust with you and your little ones is truly at the heart of what I do.
- in authenticity. I want to help you portray your family in a way that is beautiful but also is authentic to you. We don't need ball gowns and all the bell s and whistles in order to get beautiful photos!
- high quality imagery matters. I value giving you the best quality images that I can, as well as a top notch experience. I'LL GUIDE YOU THROUGH THE WHOLE PROCESS SO THAT YOU WILL COME OUT WITH BEAUTIFUL, frame-worthy photos THAT FEEL LIKE YOU!
Preserving family memories means everything to me—this photo of me and my grandmother is one of my absolute favorites. Our home is filled with gallery walls of family photos, both new and old, and they’re some of my most treasured possessions. I know how meaningful it is to hold onto these moments!
Family Memories are my why
These are a few of my favorite things. Although with two little boys it can be hard to find the time, I love to snuggle up with a book, cup of coffee in hand. Or if it's a nice day, I'll be out in my kayak with family & friends.
I love reading, kayaking, & coffee
This is personally my favorite fun fact as our chickens give us endless entertainment! Need a laugh after a long day? Bring treats to the chickens and watch them all come running.
We own Chickens, and I love to Garden.
Before I was a photographer, I was an English as a Second Language Teacher. As a newborn and family photographer there are several skills I still use from my time as a teacher (hello entertaining little ones!) I also speak Spanish from my time as an ESL teacher.
I used to be a Teacher.
I'm a wife to a hard working husband and a mom to two sweet little boys. My car is a mess and I've come to realize that's not going to change. I'm embracing the chaos that comes with this stage of life.
I'm a wife and a mom
"Having Michelle photograph my daughter’s newborn photos was an absolute dream. She was so knowledgeable and helpful in guiding my family into poses that looked great (since myself and my family really didn’t know what we were doing) and also captured so many beautiful candid shots as well."
