I'm Michelle
Because you shouldn’t have to choose just one moment to remember, this is your way to hold on to the whole story.
Because some moments are meant to be seen as they unfold, movement, emotion, and the beauty of this season, just as it was.
These sweet girls are the same ages as my boys, and their mama and I both homeschool. Watching friendship develop between families is so amazing, especially when you have so many similarities! This session was taken at my favorite field to photograph at in San Marcos.
I just love capturing emotion that comes from family bonding paired with being outdoors. There’s something about being in the warm sun without a care in the world. We got this beautiful, golden light as the girls romped and played in the field which gave us some stunning portraits of their sisterhood.
These sisters were made for each other! They’re best friends, and completely love each other. Their bond is so sweet and it’s a blessing to watch them grow closer throughout the years. Capturing sisterhood on camera is full of twirls, giggles, holding hands, and picking flowers! There was definitely no shortage of sweet sister moments during our session.
What better way to spend the morning of your portrait session than turning it into a mommy and me experience? I am passionate about creating a luxury portrait experience for my clients, one that is unparalleled in service. This includes options for hair and make up for mama, full styling for the family, and complete access to our Client Wardrobe Collection. HMUA arrives at your home before your session to pamper mama with full hair and make up, taking the stress away from doing it yourself.
The girls’ outfits are some of my most recent additions to my Client Wardrobe Collection. I am always on the search for timeless, heirloom pieces that are feminine and classic for daughters to match their mamas during our sessions! It’s so fun to shop for girl’s clothing for my wardrobe collection, since I’m a boy mom and don’t get to play dress up!

Hair & Make-up: Unique & Flawless
The years of raising babies goes by so quickly – though the days seem long, they grow up so fast. Quality time with your hubby and with your kiddos is rare – but can be beautifully captured on film during our portrait sessions. It’s not every day you can experience a day of quality time while having gorgeous imagery of you and your family done! Consider our luxury portrait experience a gift of precious quality time with stunning imagery you can enjoy long after the little years are gone.
To book your portrait experience, please send me a message to see what fall dates are still available! If you follow me on Instagram, you can find my available portrait session dates saved to my story highlights.
These photographs become treasures passed through generations. Your children will one day hold these images close, seeing themselves through your loving eyes and discovering the quiet grace that surrounded their earliest days.

Pure, Organic & Timeless
If this season feels tender, beautiful, or just a little fleeting, it may be His way of inviting you to pause and hold it close. I’d be honored to walk with you.
Beautiful moments you captured of the sisters!
Beautiful family session! I love the love and connection you’ve captured between sisters!
You make this look so easy and flawless! These are so very lovely.
This session is beautiful…the emotion, styling, lighting, everything!
So beautiful! And I absolutely LOVE the girls’ dresses, especially the flowered one.
