the woman behind the lens
Hiii, hello, welcome!
If we haven’t met before, I’m Michelle! I’m honored that you took the time to make a pit stop on my website and check out who I am and what I do! I am the woman behind the lens and who will be stepping into your home to lighten your load and help you make time for the things that matter most to you.
I live for the ephemeral moments of life. The magical, messy chaos of it all. The moments that will slip by if you don’t take a second to be present with them, notice them, give shape to them. The way your partner grabs your hand when no one is looking or the glance they give you across the room that is a language only you speak. The way the light dances on the table. The warm and kind encounters of strangers passing by in the world. The way your child’s face lights up as you enter the door because their favorite person on earth is home and they waited all day to show you something new or just simply be with you. As if nothing else in that moment matters. These moments. I want to capture them and make time for them.
My goal is to capture these special moments to the best of my ability in a way that is authentic and true to your story. Whether that is your wedding day, family, home, brand, maternity, you name it.
I also want to give you time in your busy schedules for these transient moments to exist, unfold, and be present with them. They can’t be redone or relived and will flash by if we don’t stop to notice them.
Let me help you hold on to these memories. Whether that is documenting these moments with photographs or giving you time in your schedule to focus on what matters most to you - dancing around the kitchen with your children, a workout class, focusing on a new business, time to unwind after a busy day, staring off into the abyss for a couple hours because adulting is well . . . a lot. I’ve gotcuuu covered.
Let’s hold onto the beautiful, messy chaos of life that makes it all worth living.
When I am not capturing photos or tending to a home, you can find me on some sort of an excursion - abroad, exploring quaint towns, up north - I’ll go anywhere and everywhere but camping, a cabin in the woods and boating on the lake have a special place in my heart. Writing, cooking something new and probably singing and dancing around my kitchen while doing it - don’t worry I save these musical performances for my own home. Volunteering for equine therapy, reading a good book out loud to the ducks at the pond, taking an art class, scavenging for some great vintage finds and wandering the farmers market, movement of any kind depending on what is tickling my fancy, comedy, live music and going down a rabbit hole finding stellar new bops. I have a special love for good table books, collage art and ephemera. Deeply fascinated by God and spirituality, philosophy, all things art, healing work and learning about the human body - with an emphasis on neuroscience, gut health and nervous system healing.
