PHOTOGRAPHER
FOR THE

moments

that matter

HI, I’M MICHELLE!

I'm a Bay Area-based wedding photographer serving Northern California. For the past five years, I’ve had the absolute honor of documenting love stories with a photojournalistic heart and a refined, editorial eye.

Before weddings, I spent over eight years photographing portraits—and that background still shapes how I see the world: through expressions, subtle glances, and quiet, meaningful moments. My style is rooted in honesty, empathy, and deep connection. I take the time to truly get to know my couples, because understanding your story allows me to capture your love in its most natural and powerful form.

Love, in all its forms, inspires me every day—not just from my partner, but from the chosen family and community that have shaped my life. I carry that inspiration with me into every wedding day, creating imagery that reflects the intimacy, joy, and humanity of your relationships. My goal is for you to look back and not just see beautiful photos, but to feel something all over again.
