Michelle is a very talents photographer and we can't wait to have her there for our big day. As part of our package, she included an engagement session and I'm not exaggerating when I say that the last time my fiance and I had professional pictures taken we were seniors in high school. But Michelle made us feel at ease and even sent us some ideas via Pinterest before our session. The pictures were beautiful and a great trial run before the wedding photos. Michelle even touched up a few of our weird/double-chin-inducing angles to make the shots look perfect.

Michelle was awesome to work with. Great communication and flexible. She was on time for all of our meetings and on the wedding day. She had plan B & C, which was helpful given the rain. I received my photos back sooner than promised. Most importantly, our pictures are beautiful! Thank you Michelle!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Michelle is a beautiful and artistic soul. You will connect with her immediately! She LOVES what she does and will make sure your engagement, bridal, and wedding day photos are exactly what you had imagined. She goes out of her way to make clients happy and the end result beautiful. I highly recommend Arising Light Photography.
