Capturing love, laughter & happily ever after

Welcome to our little slice of photo magic here in Boise, Idaho! As a lifestyle, family and brand photographer, I specialize in candid, emotional images full of connection that make you, your family, or your brandโ€™s personality shine.

ย Whether you’re looking to capture those precious family moments or make your brand shine, I’ve got you covered with a touch of creativity and a lot of heart. Let’s make some memories together!

hey, i'm mikelle!

Iโ€™m a Boise-based photographer with a serious passion for capturing the magic of everyday life. I made the leap from the corporate grind to follow my love for photography, and now Iโ€™m all about lifestyle, family, and branding photography.

My style? Think authentic, creative and meaningful images that truly showcase who you are with a personal touch. Every session is not just a shoot, but a fun and memorable experience!

Whether you want to freeze those precious family moments, celebrate a milestone, or give your brand a fresh visual identity, Iโ€™m here for it. Photography is so much more to me than snapping pics; itโ€™s about telling your story one frame at a time. Letโ€™s capture the essence of your life, family, or brand in a way that truly resonates and stands the test of time.

mini sessions

I do lifestyle mini sessions 3 times per year in the Spring, Summer, and Fall. My creative concept designed mini sessions with fun themes and backdrops happen sporadically as the ideas come to me. Flower fields, mommy & me’s, downtown urban settings, and natural light studios are just a few of the concepts I love!

The fun part! Since we did such an amazing job planning your session, you justย show up ready to go and I get to work my magic. I will guide you and your family through the session so we both walk away knowing we got every image youย dreamed of.

Personalized Experience

Each session is uniquely designed to give you the gallery you've been dreaming of. My favorite thing about this job is the chance to create a truly personalized experience for each client. This means a gallery that speaks to you and fills your heart.

Comfortable sessions

Attitude is everything. I want my clients to feel relaxed and at ease so their true selves shine in their images.My experience has taught me to adapt to anything to make the process stress-free, fun and natural. It's what creates genuine, heartfelt images.

Flexible scheduling

Life is busy, so I offer flexible scheduling that fits into your chaos. Reach out and I will do everything I can to accommodate your schedule.
