Sarasota's Premier Senior Photographer
delightful whimsy, inherent joy, delicious authenticity
This is the last year she's fully, entirely yours.
Senior year moves fast...soak it in.
CONNECTION.
We want it. We seek it. We crave it.
You deserve photos that actually feel like her.
For her.
For you.
For the years ahead.
Nice to meet you
I am a wife, a daughter, a friend.
A singer, an artist, a creator of beautiful things.
I believe in true love and happy endings and best friends.
I love coffee, traveling with my best half, New Hampshire in the fall, and beach days in January.
I am a midwestern girl living in a Florida world, and I couldn’t be happier.
And I believe every single one of those things about me shows up in how I photograph you.
You are not a template.
You are the giggle, the eye roll, the thing nobody else notices but I will. I am here to celebrate exactly that.
Nothing thrills me more than capturing what makes you beautiful and unique. More than anything, I am here to celebrate you.
Call me. Email me. Let’s have coffee and we’ll craft just the perfect way to capture your joy.
xoxo,
michaela

Bold, unapologetic, a little bit chaos, entirely her own.
This is what happens when a senior portrait stops trying to look like everyone else’s. It just looks like her.

They just showed up as themselves.
