VA-BASED WEDDING
& PORTRAIT PHOTOGRAPHER

based in lynchburg,va | available for weddings and elopements worldwide

My name is Michaela! I'm a Lynchburg, Virginia-based wedding and couple's photographer who specializes in blending documentary storytelling with an editorial eye since 2018. I focus on genuine moments as they naturally unfold, while creating imagery that feels elevated, intentional and timeless. My work is guided by presence- knowing when to gently step in, and when to let a moment breathe. I'd love to capture your wedding, elopement or couple's session in central VA or anywhere else! Travel is one of my love languages.

I might be the photographer for you if...

...you value real moments and gentle guidance over rigid, stiff poses

...you want photos that feel effortless, emotional and artful

...you love the look of romantic, film-inspired photos

LOVE NOTES

"Michaela was absolutely amazing on our wedding day, and leading up to it as well. Not only did she listen to what we wanted, she captured our special day beautifully, and the pictures turned out better than we could have ever hoped. She is absolutely wonderful and you will NOT be disappointed choosing her to photograph your day!"
