welcome - I’m so glad you’re here!
You’ve decided it’s time to capture this season — the grit, the movement, the teamwork, the growth — in a way that actually feels like you. And that matters.
Whether it’s the power of a game-winning play, the discipline behind every practice, or the bond within your team, this moment deserves to be documented with intention.
My goal is to make the process easy and seamless from start to finish. I’ll guide you while keeping the energy natural and authentic — so the final images reflect your strength, connection, and the work you’ve put in.
These aren’t just action shots. They’re legacy pieces — the kind you’ll want on your walls long after the season ends.
Keep scrolling for pricing, what’s included, and what your session experience will look like.
Here you’ll find everything you need to know — what’s included, how the session flows, and how we’ll create images that capture your strength, discipline, and personality.
Whether you’re stepping onto the field, the mat, the stage, or into golden-hour light, I’ll guide you through the entire process so it feels natural, powerful, and completely you.
You show up ready to move.
I’ll take care of the rest.
Ready? Let’s do this.

After booking, you’ll receive a welcome guide, session prep details, and a short questionnaire so I can learn more about you - your sport, your style, and your story.
Inside the guide, you’ll find what to wear (uniforms, costumes, or styled looks), what to expect, and how to feel fully prepared.
It’s simple. Promise.

You’ll receive a final email one week before to confirm details.
Athlete portraits are 30 minutes. Game Day Coverage is booked based on the number and length of games.

“I couldn’t be more pleased with the session I scheduled with Michelle for my daughter. Michelle found the perfect location that created a stunning backdrop!

an experienced sports and dance photographer
In my work with athletes and dancers, I care just as much about the experience as the final images.
Sessions are relaxed, focused, and efficient so you feel confident from the start. I’ll guide you with clear direction while leaving room for natural movement and real expression. No stiff poses. No pressure.
My goal is to capture your strength, personality, and the dedication behind your craft — while I handle everything behind the scenes so you can stay in the moment.
the legacy of their hard work
For me, it is never just about delivering digital files. I know you care about the final result. The images you will frame, hang, and keep long after this season ends. You want something intentional, not a generic print.
That is why every athlete and dancer leaves with something meaningful. You have access to professional labs and beautifully crafted print options so your images become artwork that belongs on your walls. Personal. Timeless. Worth keeping.
kind words from athlete and dance families
“Michelle tells stories through her lens...she has captured my children in the genuine spirit and personalities so natural. The final images were not just beautiful, they felt alive and reflecting who my children truly are at this stage in their lives.”

My work specializes in natural, relaxed photography that captures genuine emotions and real connections. I combine traditional, documentary, and lifestyle photography to capture authentic images for you to treasure for a lifetime.
I will provide a generous gallery of images that can be displayed in your home as pieces of art. These photographs will be an investment in your family history. Images from your session often tell a story, capturing a treasured moment in time. I do not try to make you look perfect, stiff, or unnatural. I am not after that "one" shot with everyone looking at the camera and smiling. Sure, I may get some with everyone looking and smiling, but I promise if I do, it will not feel stiff or forced.
-
Choose outfits that reflect who they are and allow for easy movement. Their uniform, training gear, or a simple, comfortable outfit they feel confident in all work well. I’m happy to offer suggestions once you reach out, so their look fits the location and the style of session.

Photographs grow in value over time and become family treasures. I know the importance of archiving and saving digital images. I offer one simple, all-inclusive collection where you receive all the high resolution digital files delivered via direct download and a print release. A minimum of 25 digitals files will be available to you (but usually there are more!), in both color and black and white. Furthermore, you will have the option to buy additional prints and boutique products.

Yes - game day coverage is available as its own package. It includes documentary-style images that capture the intensity, emotion, and story of their sports game.
