book your photographer
you're looking to capture your sweet family just as they are
Hey there mama! I see you hustling everyday to make sure everyone is fed, clothed, and ready to tackle the day. You know life is so busy and time passes so quickly and it's important for you to purposefully slow down and spend time with your family. You want photos to look back on for every stage your growing family goes through.
I got you!
Hey!
I'm Michelle
wife, mom, and
craver of connections
I got into photography for my love of a good story, and I love being able to share that story in a visual way through photographs. Each and every one of my clients offers a unique story from their "meet cute" to how they ended up with three kids! Every family is a culmination of that initial love story of how the universe chose two people to be together. It is an honor and a privilege to serve as a documenter of that story and produce images for you to enjoy forever.
Testimonials from Past Families
We will absolutely use her again
Michelle was very easy to schedule with, prompt in her responses, and shares a very user friendly digital gallery with her clients that is easily accessible. We will absolutely use her again in the future and I recommend her to anyone looking for a photography for couples, families, maternities, or weddings.

We used Michelle for our maternity and newborn photos and to say we were blown away with both shoots is an understatement! Michelle is so kind, directs the shoot so well and made us feel so comfortable throughout both of our shoots with her! We would highly recommend using Michelle for any of your photography needs!!

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.

Michelle is an AMAZING photographer and wonderful to work with!!!! She went out of her way to work with our busy schedule to get family photos and the whole experience was smooth and fun. I HIGHLY recommend her if you’re looking for beautiful photographs!!!
riley m.
Michelle photographing our family was wonderful. It's tough to get everyone together and in the right "headspace" for family photos, but Michelle made it so easy. She was very good at selecting appealing background and guiding us as to which poses were most flattering as well as capturing attractive candid shots.

While the industry standard is 4 weeks, I deliver a handful of "sneak peek" photos within 24 hours of your session, and your final gallery will be delivered within two to three weeks!!

Absolutely. In fact, your gallery has an integrated online print store where you can conveniently order from the BEST quality print labs that I have hand-selected for you.

I dual write every single photo to two different SD cards, and then immediately back them up to at least 2 additional security hard drives.
back
Easy. You inquire, then if you'd like we can hop on a brief Zoom call and make sure we're the right fit, and I send you a contract & invoice that you can take care of with just a few clicks.

As early as you can. Dates usually book up quick, and I only do a maximum of two sessions per week to ensure top-notch attention is given to all my families. Maternity photos are typically best taken anytime between 30-34 weeks. By this time you’ve developed a nice baby bump and typically aren’t too uncomfortable. Newborn photos are best taken within the baby’s first 14 days. I just make a note in my calendar of your due date, then when baby actually comes - let me know! We will set a firm date from there!

"We had a wonderful experience with Michelle! For our newborn photos she came to our home and created a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Her patience and gentle approach with our little ones resulted in stunning photos we will cherish forever. The final images exceeded our expectations! I highly recommend Michelle for anyone looking for beautiful newborn and family photography."

Invest
in
the gift
of
legacy albums
an heirloom
Instead of just downloading your images to your hard drive and sharing a link with your family and friends, you take it a step further and invest in a family heirloom keepsake that will help you remember these beautiful (and hectic) first days. Baby books can be hard to keep up with, so let me take care of this for you.
Envision yourself sitting in your future living room with your kids who ask questions about when they were a baby. You grab your legacy album and flip through the pages, half of the album in your lap and the other half in theirs, and you.start to reminisce about when they were so little.. If your child is anything like ours, they will be in awe of these old pictures. Legacy albums aren’t just for you, they are also for those that come after you. What a beautiful gift to hand down to future generations.
