About

Hi, I'm Michelle and I'm so glad you're here! I am dually-based in both Washington, DC and Jackson, MS, specializing in photographing thoughtful and joyful outdoor weddings throughout the East Coast and Southeastern United States.

My photos are often described as romantic, soft, and timeless. As a hybrid photographer, I utilize both traditional film and digital photography to capture love stories. I crave the flexibility I get using both mediums. I'm able to produce a timeless, romantic photograph on film while maintaining the speed and reliability of a digital backup system.

I love working with couples who are deeply in love and value the experience of their wedding day with close family and friends. My shooting style is classic and joyful with a bit of editorial flair. I use my surroundings and the given natural light to create emotive images unique to the energy of each relationship. It's important to me that we get to know each other so I can get on that level with you.

Choosing a wedding photographer is a big decision because those photos are going to be the only reminder of what your day was like. It's not just about documenting, but truly capturing the feeling of the day. Every time you look at your images I want you to remember how it felt to be there. Let me tell your story in a way that allows you to relive those moments over and over again.

Michelle is the best!

If you're looking for a wedding photographer - hire Michelle immediately! Michelle was so kind and lovely, but most importantly she is incredibly talented. We had a rainy wedding day but you would never know based on the gorgeous photos she was able to capture. We couldn't be happier with the outcome - working with Michelle was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!

Highly recommend!

Michelle was the 2nd shooter at our wedding in August 2020 and she was wonderful - a pleasure to spend time with on our wedding day, and the photos all came out beautifully. She has a very calm and warm presence that helped create a great energy that day.
