I had always had a phobia of being in front of the camera. I would take pics and always disliked what I saw until I decided to have a headshot session with Michele. She made me feel so comfortable, in a situation that would normally have brought on plenty anxiety. Then the photos came and I cried my eyes out. For the FIRST time in my entire life I looked at a photo of me and saw myself as beautiful. I still hold on to that memory and am so grateful to Michele for showing me myself in such a beautiful way.

Michele is the most creative and well skilled artist I have ever had the pleasure of working with personally and in business. She took generational photos of my mother and sister and me. She shot us during a 1/2 day set. I am camera-shy and Michele was able to have me relaxed and playful. The photos she presented us are the most beautiful we have ever seen. She captures the essence of a person in both her still and candid work. I engaged her to do my office headshots and some stills. They are outstanding. She is an extremely talented. I will work with her on all my creative projects. I am consistently amazed by her work.

Michele is a PHENOMENAL photographer. I have worked with her multiple times, and each time is a better experience. Michele has an exquisite gift of making me feel comfortable in front of the camera. My nerves are always put to ease and the photos come out SO good. She's so talented at finding the perfect light, I see the pictures BEFORE any touchups are made and I can't believe it's me! I recommend her all of the time.
