as meaningful as they are beautiful. 

Warm & Connected

My Goal is to give you images that                 you, images you can           , not just see.

and I know how much this matters. 

I'm Michelle

That's why your session will be a time to simply slow down and enjoy one another as I gently direct you. 

In Their Words

"You have a calmness about you that made us feel so comfortable during our session"

- The Maces

The Love Michelle Newborn Experience

No forcing, no staging, and not a "say cheese" in sight. 

Just a carefully planned session documenting
the love and bonding taking place as you welcome
your new addition,
in the comfort and safety of your own home. 

I handle everything, from start to finish. 
You won't need to worry about
what to wear, or even where
you're going to put your hands!

And as a former NICU nurse,
you can trust that I'll handle 
your delicate newborn with care.

Your priceless photographs will last a lifetime, and are worth it.

Before your Session

In the weeks before your session, I'll guide you through location and styling choices that will bring your vision to life (this part is really fun!). 

You'll receive a questionnaire so I can get to know you and your family a little better, and hear about your desires and concerns for your session.

All that is asked of you is that you slow down and enjoy one another. I'll tell you exactly what to do.
