Hi, I’m Michelle, a wedding and editorial photographer based in Monterey, California. I am so excited you’re here. 

I started my career in fashion photography more than a decade ago. I moved into photographing couples when I saw I could bring my editorially-trained eye to capture people in love. We all deserve to feel fabulous—like we just stepped out of the pages of Vanity Fair—and that’s what I aim to give clients through my art: effortlessly chic images of you having the best time on your biggest days. 

In my 13+ years as a photographer, I’ve witnessed some of the most beautiful weddings around Monterey, Big Sur, Carmel, and across the country. Next stop: Wherever you want to take me! 

My clients tell me my chill and easygoing nature helps them feel at ease in front of the camera, which is such a compliment. Their trust allows me to photograph the most cherished moments of their lives while they remain in the moment. I don’t take that responsibility lightly.

I like to describe my photography style as elegant, stylish, minimalistic, and timeless. My approach to capturing any event's intimate, unposed moments is rooted in my editorial background and underlined by my focus on authenticity, composition, and lighting. 

I think of what I do as a form of visual storytelling and am humbled that my work has been featured in publications including People, Marie Claire, Elle, Dare Magazine, Harper's Bazaar, Carats & Cake, and The Anti-Bride.
