Growing up in New York City, Michelle was always fascinated by the visual stimulation that the cityscape and bustle of people around her represented. She believes these early visual experiences helped to shape her distinct photographic style, one that gives particular attention to detail while remaining true to the "as you find it" nature of a person in their own environment. Michelle has found photography to be both a dramatic and individual way to preserve memories of people, places, and things.

In particular, it represents to her, a great way to track the life changes of cherished family members and close friends. With deep self-awareness of her own unique visual style, Michelle's art has become the expression of the beauty she sees in the world — and in the people around her. Michelle loves to capture on film the distinctive elements about a person, so in her photos you'll find her photographic subjects to be unusually candid and un-posed.

Michelle initially began her photography business as a self-taught artist. However, Michelle has since taken many photography and lighting courses with highly skilled professionals. She is also a member of the PPA (Professional Photographers of America). Michelle strives for very high standards in photography, and is also committed to providing professional and courteous service to each client.
