I'm Michelle
You just celebrated one year around the sun with your little love! Now let’s document this precious and fleeting season for you to cherish always.
As a Topsail Island photographer, you’ll often find me on the beach in the summer months. Sunrise is my absolute favorite time of day to capture portraits at the beach! We often have the beach to ourselves, and the sunrise and early morning light is so dreamy! The beaches here get very crowded in the summer months, so I always recommend shooting at sunrise even if you’re not an early riser. It does make for a super early morning, but then you have the rest of the day to relax which is perfect if you are here on vacation.
The First Year Collective is the most popular choice for moms who don’t want to miss capturing a precious moment from baby’s first year! It’s true what they say – the days are long, but the years are short. It goes by fast. Trust, me as I mom I know. That’s why I have made it my mission to effortlessly document baby’s first year.
