Hi, I'm Michelle. Thank you for stopping by!
Life is all about the moments. Births, Birthdays, Weddings, Pregnancy...whatever the moment is in YOUR life is what I want to capture.
My photography journey began in 2009 when, at the urging of my husband, I began to pursue a Bachelor's Degree in Photography. He recognized my passion and wanted me to reach out and grab it! This is one thing that sets me apart; I not only have been teaching myself but I have also been putting in the work to formally learn the art and science of photography.
Your session will be professionally directed, captured and processed by me. Rest assured, I will be doing my best to capture images that you will cherish for years and be proud to hang on your walls. Our session will be fun and energetic and I promise to capture some true emotions and moments just for YOU.
I am a wife and mother. My husband and my child are my world.
I can't start my day without a cup of coffee and the Today show.
I'm obsessed with the show 'Criminal Minds', it's a good thing A&E runs a marathon at least once a week. Wait, maybe not.
Want more information? Send me an email or give me a call. I am willing to meet prior to your session and/or event and chat about making your vision a reality. I particularly enjoy having these chats at the local coffee shop!
I specialize in on-location, natural-light photography in the Columbia, SC metro area. I am also available for sessions in Cape Cod, MA and Southern NJ at various times throughout the year. Stay tuned to the blog for details!
