Hello! I’m Michelle, a Virginia-based photographer working primarily along the East Coast, though I’m always happy to travel wherever your story takes me.
Before photography, I was a painter, and that foundation still deeply shapes the way I see and document the world. I’m drawn to photography as a form of storytelling, capturing real, unscripted moments and the emotions that live within them. My background in art influences everything from composition and color to the quiet details that often matter most.
I fell in love with photographing weddings in 2016. From the still, intimate moments to the joyful celebrations, my goal is to document your day in a way that feels honest, and true to who you are.
