Hi, I'm Michaela!

I currently shoot Central Illinois as well as shooting on the Gulf Coast in Alabama when I am home to visit family! Thanks for hopping on this page and wanting to learn more about me! I'm 24yrs old and have been married to Jon, my amazing husband (aka that cutie in the pic with me) since September of 2020. I love good coffee (I spend 80% of my life sitting in coffee shops), The Office, and my sweet yellow lab named Delta. She's literally the best ever. Ever since I was young, I've been so passionate about taking photos. It started with pictures of nature. I just loved to capture beautiful moments! I was also a pro at using those vintage built in Instagram filters. I took millions of photos on my little iPod Touch until eventually for my 13th birthday, I got a camera. I've been in love ever since.

I'd be honored to not just take your photos, but to get to know you. I believe that all my talents and creativity are a gift from God, and that they are more than just cool skills. They are opportunities for connection. So let's connect! I love capturing REAL moments, not just the cheesy-fake-awkward smile stuff. So if I sound like your kinda gal, head on over to my contact page and let's do this!
