Hello, I’m Michaela, a Southern Rhode Island-based photographer with a deep passion for capturing the beauty in life’s Captivating Chaos. With over 10 years of experience in photography, and a background in Early Childhood Development & Education, I've spent years working closely with children—first as a pre-kindergarten teacher, and now as a stay-at-home mom to a lively toddler who keeps me on my toes.

As a mother and photographer, I know firsthand how challenging it can be to capture the perfect shot of busy little ones (especially when there are tears involved). Specializing in candid photography, my mission is to create a relaxed, enjoyable experience for your family. My goal is to make sure you feel comfortable so that your session feels natural and fun, not forced. While I absolutely love working with children, I also cherish photographing the special connections between couples or anyone looking to celebrate their unique beauty through portraits.

I believe that the best photographs come from moments when you feel completely at ease—when you're truly yourself. My approach to photography focuses on capturing those authentic, unposed moments that tell your story. Whether it’s a spontaneous laugh, a quiet moment between parent and child, or a loving glance between partners, these are the images I treasure—and I want you to cherish them, too. My aim is to create an environment where you can let go of any pressure, relax, and be fully present in the moment.

Having experienced every stage of life through the lens of another Photographer’s camera—from dating and engagement photos to my wedding, pregnancy announcement, maternity session, and now as a growing family—I understand the significance of capturing these fleeting moments. It’s my goal to help you preserve the essence of wherever you are in life, and to follow along as your story unfolds. No occasion is too small, and every moment is worth celebrating.
