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.
As a Bald Head Island photographer, I truly believe a session wouldn’t be complete on Bald Head Island without capturing the iconic Old Baldy Lighthouse. Old Baldy makes a stunning backdrop with the historic lighthouse and beautiful surrounding gardens with stunning Oak trees with Spanish moss. There is something so magical about the oak trees and the way the light filters through the Spanish moss.
