Engagement sessions aren’t a checklist item - they’re a chance to make memories before the big day. These sessions give you a moment to relax in front of the camera, build trust, and reveal the way you two actually interact when no one’s watching. Think of it as practice for presence, not posing.

Your wedding day isn’t meant to be managed.
These celebrations are built around connection, shared energy, and time spent with the people who matter most.
From quiet moments to full dance floors, presented as they naturally unfolded - unforced, personal, and lived-in.

Michelle + Justin’s Hill Country wedding was colorful, relaxed, and built around enjoying the day without overthinking it.

What working together actually feels like
Most Austin couples tell me the same thing afterward:
“It felt easy.”
From our first conversation through the final moments of the night, I’m a steady presence you don’t have to manage. I work fluidly with your team, adapt when plans shift, and stay focused on what’s unfolding - not forcing moments or pulling you out of them.
You don’t need to pose or overthink it.
You get to be here. Everything else is handled.
You're not here by accident.
This first step is about confirming the details - your date, location, and the overall feel you’re planning - and making sure everything aligns so we can move forward smoothly.
No sales talk. No convincing. Just clarity, expectations, and next steps.
1. Let's Chat!
2. Ask Me Anything
This is where we talk through the details.
We’ll connect live - in person or virtually - to walk through your plans, priorities, and any questions you have. We’ll cover timing, logistics, and the moments that matter most to you so everything feels clear and well thought out.
After our call, I’ll put together a custom collection based on your needs. Once the contract is signed and the date is secured, you’re officially on the calendar - and we’re set.
Engagement sessions with me are designed as an experience - and they’re reserved for wedding clients only.
We plan them together with intention, take our time, and let the session unfold naturally. The goal isn’t a checklist of poses, but images that feel lived-in and personal.
By the time the wedding day arrives, the camera already feels familiar - and everything flows that much easier.
3. The Engagement Session
On your wedding day, you don’t need to think about photography.
I’m there as a calm, steady presence - guiding when it’s helpful, blending in when it’s not, and adapting as the day unfolds. Nothing feels rushed or overproduced, and nothing important gets missed.
You get to stay present with your people. I’ll take care of the rest.
4. Wedding Day!
After the wedding, you’ll receive a carefully curated online gallery that reflects how the day actually felt.
From there, you’ll have access to print credits, album options, and heirloom pieces designed to be lived with - not forgotten in a folder. Album design is collaborative and intentional, so the final result feels just as personal as the day itself.
This is where everything comes together.
5. Your Photographs
Michele was the best decision! She made us feel so comfortable. So many of our friends and family told us how much they loved her after our wedding! Book 1836, you will not regret it!
Taylor + Jarrett
Y'all! Michele was the absolute best photographer we could have asked for! Can't wait for more to come 🤗

Our photographer, Michele, was absolutely amazing to work with! She made our day so special and was so easy to get along with. Nothing felt stressful or awkward and our pictures were absolutely stunning! Couldn't have asked for a better team on our wedding day!

Lauren + Brandon
OMG I'm looking through them now! They are INCREDIBLE!! John has to wait until he gets home, but I'm in full-blown waterworks over here!

Lacey + John
There are some other hilarious photos, but so many that are breathtaking. You are truly a goddess among humans! I have no idea how you were everywhere all at once, but you somehow got moments that I saw happening and sent a prayer up that somehow, someone would snag them with a camera.
Dripping Springs, Texas
Angela + Josh
I got so many compliments about you, specifically, from our guests. They raved about you (completely unprompted, they were the ones bringing you up)! Thank you so much for going above and beyond on our special day. I truly feel like I cannot thank you enough.

Use the form below to tell me about your plans—what you’re excited about, what matters most to you, and anything you want me to know. I’ll review the details personally and be in touch soon with next steps.
I take on a limited number of weddings each year so I can be fully present for every couple I work with. If we’re aligned, I’d love to talk more.
