Gray, Jaime, 9 of their favorite humans, and the most magical Airbnb tucked within Olympic National Park.

The day held rainy lake-side vows, dreamy adventures through the mossy woods, and the most whimsical portrait time among the panoramic mountain views. An incredible honor to document a day full of so much love, joy, and adventure.

I didn’t grow up dreaming of being a photographer. I did, however, grow up noticing.

The way light moved through a room. The colors of a sunset reflecting on water. How loud my family laughed around a table. Cool rocks and interesting feathers that always had to come home with me. Even then, I think I was trying to hold onto moments and make them more tangible.

As I’ve gotten older, I think that same noticing has turned into creating. Photography, of course. But also pottery and sewing and gardening and decorating our home and setting a table for people I love. I find so much inspiration in the world around me + I think creating has become one of the ways I process and appreciate it.

I love things that feel a little imperfect and full of character. Film grain, thrifted glassware, handmade pottery, old houses, wild gardens. I love traveling somewhere completely new just as much as I love & appreciate coming home. I love Jesus + feel closest to him when I slow down enough to notice how much beauty there is in the sweet little life he’s given me.

Somewhere along the way, a camera became the thing I reach for most often. Not just at weddings, but on camping trips and vacations, at home with Jake + our cats, around a table with friends, or anytime the light is doing something I don’t want to forget.

I think that’s what I love most about creating photographs. They’ve taught me to look a little closer at my own life, too.

So hi, I’m Michaela (Mich for short) :) photographer, former nurse, hobby queen, wife to my favorite person, lover of old + quirky things, and someone who is probably always going to be collecting little pieces of life as I go.

So beyond grateful you’re here. 🎞️

Set among the historic homes, brick paths, and autumn color of Irvine Park. These sessions are open to couples, families, maternity, or simply documenting a season of your own.

One of my favorite parts of seeing a wedding day unfold is watching all the details come together piece by piece. I love using all these details to thread your day together through storytelling + artful documentation. A few favorite frames from C + N’s beautiful La Pointe Events wedding day.
