Weddings & Couples

Your family’s story is built in chapters — some loud and celebratory, others quiet and meaningful. I’m here to document both, so you can look back and remember not just how it looked, but how it felt.

more about me

Hi! Im Michelle- the photographer behind Michelle Faye Photography.

I specialize in documenting growing families in a relaxed, guided way so you never have to worry about being “perfect” in front of the camera”. I’ll help you with everything from planning outfits to keeping little ones happy during your session.

My goal is simple: for your photos to feel like your real life, not a performance. Because someday the little things you’re living right now will be the things you miss the most.

Connection Call

Plan Together

Once you’re booked, I take care of the details. You’ll receive a welcome guide, style guidance, and preparation tips so you know exactly what to expect. I help with outfits, colors, and even how to prepare your kids (and husbands!)

Session Day

 This is the easy part. I will gently guide you the entire time. I focus on connection, movement, and real moments, not stiff poses. Kids can play, cuddle, run around, and be themselves… that’s where the magic happens.
