This was our first time doing family pictures and I was a little nervous! I never know if my kids (4 and 6) are going to cooperate with anything. I don’t know what it is about Michelle but they LOVED her. She made us all feel instantly relaxed and we had a blast! I received the proofs last week and cried some happy tears. They were amazing! She captured our family’s personalities and the quality was off the charts. Thank you, Michelle! I can’t recommend you enough!!

We've used Michelle for photos for our family for several years now. We've done family shoots, shoots with just the kids, maternity pictures, newborn, Christmas... the list is long. She is a joy to work with and always brings the best expressions out of my kids *and* my husband which is honestly a feat in itself. She is super patient with the kids and will spend as much time as needed to make sure she gets the shots.
