Hey There, Friend!

Hey there! I'm Michelle, a native Delaware gal, with a passion for the ocean and photography. Growing up near the coastal beaches was a dream, and it's where I still find my peace.

As a creative at heart, I originally fell in love with travel photography and decided to take the leap and start my own business after having my two kiddos. They were the perfect models! It's been an incredible ten year journey, and I'm so grateful to have found my voice and the courage to be me.

I believe everyone deserves to be seen, heard and celebrated!

That's why I'm here to help you tell your story through imagery. I promise to be kind, listen carefully, and make you feel comfortable.

I really do love getting to know you and your loved ones.

Let's create some magic together! I'd be honored to capture your family's story and preserve your memories. Thank you for trusting me with this special season of life.

Can't wait to work with you!

Keep smiling,
- Michelle

The unseen side of stunning photos: late nights, countless tweaks, and a passion for perfection. Good editing isn’t just about pressing buttons, it’s about telling a story, evoking emotions, and capturing essence. 📖 It’s not just about filters and presets. Good editing requires patience, practice, and a keen eye for detail. Hours of tweaking, experimenting, and refining to bring out the best in every shot. 📸 Beyond the software and tools, good editing demands creativity, intuition, and dedication. It’s where art meets technicality, and vision meets precision. The unsung hero of photography. 🦸‍♀️ #editinglife #photography #editingtips #postproduction #photographyediting #delawarephotographer
