the pretty pictures
Located in Richmond, I am a luxury wedding photographer in Virginia, drawn to love, laughter, adventure and classic elegance. I may be found with my hair in a messy bun on the regular, but my heart jumps on the days I have a reason to throw on a pair of Jimmy Choos. Down to earth, but appreciating the finer things in life. I believe YOLO, and on your wedding day, i will encourage you to take advantage of any small moment you can to stop and smell the roses (or rosé, whichever you prefer). A whole-hearted Enneagram 7 with a desire for authentic, warm relationships. You and I will spend more time together on your wedding day than you'll spend with most other people, and I want us to be a perfect fit. I need to be the Coco to your Chanel. If you like what you see so far and want to know more about how I can use my style of wedding photography to capture your love story, click below.

One of the most iconic DC wedding venues shone proudly atop the rolling hills of the golf course where these two said "I Do." The epitome of classic elegance and grace, Kelly and Garrett did not overlook even the smallest detail to make their Washington DC wedding day anything but magical.
THE Michelle Renée
EXPERIENCE
It's a bit surreal to look in a magazine or online feature and see your stunning couples gracing the pages, but what matters far beyond any external recognition is the bond I'm able to develop with the couples I serve and hear them tell me years after their wedding day, just how much their images mean to them.
