Your love is a story.
Tell it beautifully.
Keep it forever.
Heartfelt lifestyle photography for real San Diego families.
Your love stories are unique to you.
Each year & milestone is fleeting, and deeply meaningful in its own way.
You want to hold on to it.
I will make a beautiful record of it, so you can keep it forever.
Love, Michelle Photography

"Thank you, Michelle, for helping us preserve these miraculous moments in our lives."
David and Laura
I'm Michelle, and I see you.
You want your love stories told through moody, dramatic images.
Images you can feel, not just see.
Posed perfection doesn't move you. Authentic emotion does.
You want a fun and fast-moving session that is genuinely enjoyable.
You want unfussy pricing, with your images included.
You're in the right place.
Because your memories, and the people in them, are worth it.
