The Investment Details
We hired Michelle to be our wedding photographer, and we couldn't have made a better decision. Not only did she take her time to really get to know us and make us comfortable, but she was able to guide us through the chaos of getting married and getting all the appropriate photos. She really went above and beyond and we are so in love with our wedding photos. We WILL be using Michelle again for any future events we have or if our family grows.

We've had Michelle do a few photo shoots for us, and every time I am blown away by the talent this woman has. She has the ability to turn something very uncomfortable and awkward, into something incredibly carefree and comfortable. Michelle is just a beautiful person both inside and out. Highly recommend!

For all my big life events I have used Michelle Rae Photography. From my engagement to my wedding and the birth of my first children. Michelle is professional, helpful and just an overall sweetheart. My son was not exactly willing to cooperate for his newborn photos and Michelle spent hours calmly trying to make it work and the end result was prefect. My family will always use life's depictions for our future family milestones.

I would totally recommend Michelle for your newborn and family photos. She did an amazing job with our photos. She was so accommodating, very good at communicating and she was so good with our newborn Audrey. She did an amazing job with all the photos and had a lot of props too. Thanks Michelle!!
