Working with Michelle was a dream. Her attention to detail behind the camera and in her editing quality is unmatched. We worked with her for two very special photo sessions— maternity and newborn lifestyles photos. From the moment I reached out, I knew she was passionate about her craft. She really cares about her clients and is always willing to go the the extra mile. We live ~6 hours away and she made the trek to capture our special moments without question. I also appreciated how she goes with the flow, brings props if you need them (like flowers at my maternity shoot which added such a special touch), walks you through poses, and plays music to put you at ease. We can’t wait for her to capture more of our family memories to come!

Michelle has given me the BEST photographer experience I have ever had. Not only is she the sweetest soul, but she makes you feel comfortable which is crucial when it comes to getting great photos that you love. We were really able to be our full selves in front of her and the camera and she is 100% the reason to thank for this. Both shoots I have done with Michelle have been so fun and easy, I can’t wait to work with her again. Her artistic eye and opinion is so trustworthy. I am forever grateful for the engagement session and boudoir shoot I got to experience with her and I can’t wait for more shoots in the future with her!

This was our first time doing a professional photo shoot together as a couple. I found Michelle on ig and reached out to her to do maternity photos with us. I shared with her our insecurities about being photographed and she assured us she would help guide us and make us feel comfortable. And boy did she deliver! She was so warm and kind and made the whole experience so wonderful! We last minute brought our doggo to the shoot and Michelle was so patient with all 3 of us! One thing I loved most was Michelle’s energy! She was so excited when we found great lighting and when there was a moment that a flock of birds flew by in the distance. Her passion for her craft was so inspiring and her excitement was contagious! Our photos turned out beautiful as expected! They were exactly what we were wanting and we trusted her the whole time! We could not recommend her more and we hope to do more shoots with her in the future!
