Into The Light
From the moment you reach out, my goal is for you to feel seen, heard, supported, and loved. I personally read and respond to every inquiry.
After reviewing your information, I'll get in touch to answer any questions, ask a few of my own, and share available dates.
Once you confirm a date for your shoot, I'll send you a contract to reserve your spot, and we can begin the planning phase!
01. Connection Comes First
After you’ve booked, I’ll send you resources to help you plan for your shoot (styling support is always available). I’ll also provide a link for you to schedule an (entirely optional) creative call so we can get to know each other better before the experience!
02. Planning Your Session
I prioritize co-creation and intentional collaboration in my work. While I may be the artist, your honest engagement is essential for creating meaningful art. My approach to photography is unconventional; instead of telling you how to pose, I guide you through embodiment practices before shooting. This can include conversation, meditation, playing a game, singing, dancing, breathing together, and more, all aimed at bringing you into the seat of your power and wisdom.
For editing, I follow a ‘less is more’ philosophy. I shoot in bold, direct light, using natural contrasts to highlight your story rather than relying on heavy editing. The result is artful, candid photography that speaks volumes — striking, vivid images that reveal the true depth of your heart and capture the sacred beauty in your life.
03. The Experience
I create images that become timeless works of art in your home, cherished and passed down for generations. Each package includes prints of your images, with sizes and quantities depending on your package selection.
When your full gallery is ready, you'll receive my hand-selected favorites along with print recommendations. Once you've chosen the photographs you want to display, I'll handle the entire printing process for you!

I’ll meet you in your home or at a special place that holds meaning for you. It’s important that you and your family members feel completely at ease. Think of the comfort you feel with close friends or loved ones — where you can walk into their place without knocking or sit together in warm silence or laugh wildly until you’re in tears. That’s the level of comfort I’m aiming for, and as we begin the session, we’ll use rituals like breathwork, family activities, and play to help everyone relax and feel at home.
Once the shoot is complete, you’ll receive a collection of 60 beautiful docu-style images, including my selected favorites and options for printing.
*Pre-consultation and styling support is available.

Are you a woman with a wild heart? If your answer is a resounding YES, we’re bound to create something extraordinary together.
To create your portraits, we’ll convene at a place of significance, and set the tone with a clearing ritual to help you fully land in your body and connect with spirit. Before the shoot, you might choose to journal, or I can guide you through meditation or somatic work. Trust that we’ll find the medicine that soothes your being, softens your skin, and opens the door for your most magnetic expression to pour through. Then, together, we’ll craft a visual narrative of your individual expedition and exploration, leaving you with a collection of portraits that you can revisit for the rest of your life — each one capturing the essence of your journey and serving as a timeless reminder of your inner light.
After our session, you’ll receive a collection of 45 portraits, including my selected favorites and options for printing.
*Pre-consultation and styling support is available.

This portrait experience is more than just a session; it's an opportunity to be seen in your truest form. As an artist, maker, teacher, or guide, you bring something unique and vital to the world. My approach is deeply rooted in attentiveness and concentration, allowing me to uncover the layers of your story. I dedicate myself fully to understanding the heart of your work and the energy you put into it. Each image is a reflection of raw beauty—the passion that fuels your creativity, the wisdom you impart, and the strength in your craft. Through a combination of intimate connection and artistic vision, I aim to create portraits that not only show what you do, but also who you are in your most authentic, empowered state.

I love love, and any reason to travel. I’ve flown to Spain to shoot a week-long wedding, and I’d do it again in a heartbeat. If you have a wedding, elopement, vow renewal, or any other kind of ceremony or perhaps even a once-in-a-lifetime adventure planned that you want documented, reach out via my contact form so we can discuss a completely custom package for you.
“Michelle has been our family photographer since we returned to Boise in 2018, and I can’t recommend her highly enough. Not only is she a close friend of many years, but she also brings a special touch to every photo shoot. As a photographer myself, I can be quite particular about the direction of the shoots, but Michelle has a remarkable way of blending her vision with mine. Her communication is top-notch, making sure that we both achieve the desired outcome while keeping the process enjoyable and fun. What sets Michelle apart is her genuine care for her clients. She takes the time to get to know each person, ensuring that everyone feels comfortable and open, allowing her to capture authentic, cherished moments. Her artistic eye is exceptional, and she’s continually honing her craft by attending workshops, seeking out new experiences, and educating herself.
One of the most personal experiences we shared was when I invited Michelle to photograph the home birth of my third son. It was an incredibly intense and sacred moment, and I trusted Michelle completely to handle it with the care and respect it deserved. She did an unbelievable job, capturing the raw beauty of that experience without ever intruding on the intimacy of the moment. Michelle is not just a talented photographer but also a person of great integrity and kindness. She’s become an extension of our family, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who can turn precious moments into lasting memories.”

“Michelle is an extraordinary photographer. Her creativity, passion, and expertise radiate in every shot she takes, making each photo truly frame-worthy. My husband and I were thrilled to have her capture both our engagement and entire wedding weekend. For our engagement session, Michelle expertly selected stunning locations in Boise, ensuring the light and scenery were perfect. She guided us with poses, helping us feel completely at ease. We loved our photos so much that we used them for our save-the-dates and wedding website.
During our wedding weekend, Michelle was present at every event, capturing a beautiful mix of candid moments and posed shots of individuals, couples, and groups. Beyond her incredible photography, she was a calming and reassuring presence during the emotional and hectic moments, helping me stay centered and making me feel comfortable and beautiful all day long. We are incredibly fortunate to have had Michelle with us to document such a monumental moment in our lives!”
