Meet Michelle

What I Love About Photography

None of us will live forever, but photography is about creating something that does!  I love all of the people that I get to work with. 

 I have been doing photography since 1998. 


I have photographed Kent Hrbek with the Minnesota Twins.  We have done photography for an MTV special.  And a few others that we were sworn to secrecy...shhhhh

My Passion

I am very passionate about empowering women.  Whether it be through photography or women in business, helping women encourage, empower, and build each other up is amazing. 


I have served on many boards and clubs throughout my community.  Through photography we are involved in Now I Lay Me Down To Sleep, a non-profit organization providing heirloom portraits for families who have babies that will not leave the hospital.  I believe that everyone needs to give back, it helps us to be the best that we can be.   

Faves

Anything Black and White and Pink (of course!) Anything that sparkles or glitters.  My sister says that when I was a baby I was dropped in a box of glitter and I've been sparkling ever since!!

Life In General

Life is all about the memories!  You have choices to work, sleep, save, spend, etc.  But don't forget about all of the people in your life - spend time with them, visit, call but remember that life is short.


Remember to love yourself first, do things for you - don't expect others to do them for you.  Take time to travel, smell the roses and just enjoy the life that you've built!!!  XOXO
