"She does absolutely amazing work and made the whole shoot fun! Was great working with horses that didn’t want to stand still. Will definitely use again!!
- Emily H.
Wow! I hired Michelle to do our family photos. In prior years, this has been a very stressful event. It was a completely different experience with Michelle! She had great ideas for poses & backgrounds. The problem now is choosing which ones to print and frame! The search is over for a great photographer!

When you fill out the contact form I will reach out to you within 48 hours. When we chat I want to know your why. I want to know about your heart horse. The day in the life at the barn and how you feel while riding or hunting. I want to know what sets you free when you are out in the field on the range. In addition to which collection you are interested in. I want you to paint the picture of your vision and the wonderful wall art we will create together.
Are we the right fit?!
The Process
Choose your favorite location or two of my favorite county parks, Broemmelsiek & Indian Camp Creek. Both have amazing views, woodland terrains, flower gardens and wide open fields. Not quite your jam and prefer your sanctuary?! No problem, I will travel out to you and love to personalize your art work using your fields, equipment, and barns!
Lets talk location
I highly recommend booking with me ASAP. Some seniors, riders and hunters even book me for their date before narrowing down the details or when they know the date of their next show!
I don't mean this to be any pressure, but I book very early on (normally 6+ months in advance for peak dates). So, book as soon as you can to reserve your date! There's only one of me, and dates fill up fast.
Let's get you booked!
✨ Now this is where the fun really begins! I know you’re excited and ideas are already starting to flow, but this is the time where we come together and create the vision for your session. Over the next few weeks, you’ll receive a guide to help bring your ideas to life, shape the vision for your session, and give you a clear picture of what to expect along the way.
Let's do this!
How exciting!! It is the day of your session and time to have some fun! Be sure to have checked off your checklist for both your horse and self. Grab any last minute items and lets make some wall art!
I will arrive in blue jeans and boots ready to go. Take a deep breath, be present and lets enjoy our time together creating lasting memories.
