Senior Rep Shoot!

…so I decided to do a senior rep shoot at the lovely Kuhs farm this year.  Well, that day and we lucked out with gorgeous temperatures but the wind was Gale Force…no joke.  Blowing horses and carriages over…well it could have anyway.  Holly Speakes did the hair/make-up for the girls.  Needless to say, they were perfect!

Thank you Devyn, Kelsey, Kailyn, and Madeline.  You were all amazing!!

…Support Habitat for Humanity…

Hello world!  My beloved friends at Matilda Jane are doing their annual auction to benefit Habitat for Humanity. I’m having a wonderful time here in Seattle, but I wanted to stop by and let you know about this amazing auction.  I myself have put a couple items in there.  Big ticket items…like wedding photography ahem..  So go bid on it, and support a good cause and in the process get a wedding photographer!  100% of the proceeds go to Habitat for Humanity.  Travel expenses for me are not included in the package.

Matilda Jane Auction

Happy Bidding!!

…Chic Retreat and a lovely young lady…

So I’ve arrived in Seattle for the first ever Chic Retreat of which I am 1 or 7 speakers.  We literally chased the sunset on the way here.  What a wonderful thing it was to be able to watch a sunset for 3 hours.  A serious treat my friends and what an honor it is to be here surrounded by such wonderful talented ladies.  Kelli France, Heidi Hope, Kara May, Jean Smith. Leah Remillet, Laura Winslow, Sarah Cornish I can’t wait to hang and get to know everyone, especially the 55 attendees.  Of course I have to give a huge shout out to my amazing sponsors…the seriously rock, PhotoFlashDrive.com, Design Aglow,  Finao, and  Diversified Lab.  Amazing company’s to partner with because they all are companies I use consistently.

Now Speaking of amazing ladies, let me introduce you to an amazing young lady.  Stephanie…Senior Class of 2013.  Good luck in your endeavors Stephanie, you’ll do amazing things!

…out on the farm…

I love photographing mid-west families, especially this little gem of a family with the neatest farm.  So much scope for the imagination…

Kids this age are sporadic, temperamental, easily over-stimulated, and down right crazy…I wouldn’t change it one single bit.  Makes my work so much more fun!

Loved little miss in her MJC and her rompin brothers in The Good Ones

…Tatum…Class of 2013

…My name is Michelle, and I’m addicted to senior sessions.  There I’m out.  The only way to cure this addiciton is to feed it lol.  Anyone who books their senior session now through April 30(session does NOT have to take place during this time) will receive a complimentary flip book with 20 session proofs.

Now swoon over the fabulous Tatum who came all the way from Cape Girardeau for her session and prepare for image overload.

Thanks for making it through!  XOXO

I have been a fan of your work for years now and I have followed your career from far, far away (Spain, to be more precise!). At this point in time, it’s so refreshing to see a photographer that keeps doing her thing in spite of trends and fads. Thank you for being brave enough to be yourself and thus inspiring people like me to do the same. :)
