Vancouver editorial portrait photographer

Soul-deep portraits for unhurried hearts—those who dance in their kitchen, treasure real conversations, and believe the best moments can’t be rushed.

THE RHYTHM OF OUR WORK

In a world of cookie-cutter photography, we’ll create something different.
We start with a conversation about what makes you groove. Then we shoot—giving you space to express yourself fully and dance to your own beat. You’ll walk away with portraits that feel like an editorial spread, except it’s actually you—liberated, not constrained.

Standing Ovations

“She was able to help me see my body in whole in new ways, and also see parts of me that I have always been self conscious of, in the most beautiful new ways. I am whole and I am ART! Seeing myself this way really disrupted some negative self perceptions and has brought me deeper into my healing journey. “

“Michele is an exceptional photographer with a remarkable talent for capturing authentic moments and personality.
She doesn’t just take photos; she helps create a visual story that perfectly represents
you and your brand.”

That Defy Expectations


ready to create together?

Let’s make
some noise!

I’m not for everyone, and that’s ok. I’m here for the dreamers and the REBELS, who want to create more than images.

My work sits at the intersection of fine art and editorial photography, celebrating individuals who refuse to be confined by conventional beauty standards.

For those who find poetry in simplicity and depth in the unspoken—welcome. I’m here for the souls who crave depth, who understand that true beauty lives in the raw, unfiltered moments. 

My vibrant spirit meets your authentic self to create portraits that go beyond the surface—way beyond the trends and filtered perfection flooding your feeds.
