I’m a Colorado-based wedding photographer with 10 years of experience shooting joyful couples and the families and friends who love them!
I believe in creating beautiful images of your wedding day and also in serving my couples and their families well.
I believe everyone is beautiful and photogenic and deserves to look their best on your wedding day.
I believe a wedding day is the first day of a marriage and it’s important to embrace the joy as well as the unexpected turns of the day as part of your unique story.
I believe that you should choose a wedding photographer you trust and enjoy spending time with, because you’ll probably see your photographer more than your groom on your wedding day!
And most of all, I believe there is nothing more joyful than a bride and groom on their wedding day. I would consider it an honor to capture that beauty on yours!
Michele is so very kind and patient and encouraging! Our pictures are incredibly beautiful and timeless and we will treasure them forever. We are beyond thrilled that we chose Michele for our wedding photographer. Truly, it was the best decision we made in our entire wedding planning process!
You can end your search! Michele is the most kind soul and an INCREDIBLE photographer. We could not ask for a better experience! She is professional and clearly a veteran! We love you, Michele!
Oooh, such a great question! I like to capture the majority of the day in an editorial style, capturing details of the day and using natural posing cues so that your photographs look like they belong in a magazine.
During family formals, I know how to corral a crowd. I work quickly so everyone can get to cocktail hour, but I take time to make sure everyone looks their best. I pay special attention to making sure to flatter the mother of the bride and groom, and to make sure grandparents feel comfortable.
During the reception, I switch over to photojournalistic mode and capture the dances and toasts, tears and laughter, and the hugs and emotional moments of the day as they happen.
Since I take only a limited number of weddings each year, most of my couples book 12-15 months in advance to make sure I’m available on their wedding date.
Booking early also means my couples will have more time to schedule their engagement session.
And, here’s one of my favorite wedding photography tips: An engagement session is the best way to ensure you’re comfortable in front of the camera on your wedding day. Not only will we create a folio of images of this special time in your life that you’ll treasure forever, but you’ll also know how I like to pose and shoot my couples so you can relax on your wedding day and trust me with your images.

Michele went above and beyond to make our wedding extra special and to make us feel like rockstars in front of the camera! We have never enjoyed taking photos before, but Michele gave us great direction on how to pose and made us feel super comfortable. Thank you for an unforgettable wedding, Michele!
My favorite thing about weddings is the relationships I have with my brides and grooms, so drop me a note and let’s start getting to know each other!
