Michele's photographic style is casual and relaxed and sessions with her are a fun, rewarding experience. Her motto is "Acuna Matata!" (No Worries!) Kids are kids, so not stress allowed! :) As a mother of four herself, Michele easily relates to children and parents alike - and she understands!
MJ's philosophy as a child photographer is simple..."My clients allow me into their lives, sometimes to share some of their most intimate family moments. I'm honored to be entrusted with this task and I delight in being able to create family heirlooms that will be treasured for generations."
