You know that feeling when you catch yourself staring at your kid and thinking, How are you already this big?

That’s the whole point.

Because these years are loud and fast and full of tiny details you swear you’ll remember forever, until you’re standing in the kitchen holding a tiny sock like it’s evidence of a past life. You deserve images that don’t just prove you were there. You deserve portraits that feel like your family, and look like art on your walls.

I’m Michele, a Twin Cities photographer with 15 years of experience photographing families, motherhood, babies, and all the in between. I’m here for the real stuff, the connection, the way your toddler clings to your leg one minute and sprints away the next. And I’m also here to make it look beautiful.

A photo session doesn’t need to feel like a production. You’re already doing a lot.

My job is to make this easy to walk into and easy to trust. I’ll guide you gently, give you direction that feels natural, and keep things moving without turning your family into a performance.

Expect a mix of calm structure and room to breathe. Your kids can be themselves. You can exhale. And you can actually be in the frame without worrying about what your hair is doing every two seconds.
