Cleveland Hot List 2020 - Best Photographer

Hi everyone, my name is Michaela!

I met Katrina and Mark through my amazing husband and mother-in-law. They’re neighbors! I fell in love with their work and just knew I had to book them for my, at the time, future wedding!

Since then, I have adored their company and work from afar, until we were able to get our wedding album and I approached the subject of mentoring.

​

That is how, in short, I am here now excited to be your family photographer!

After speaking with Katrina about if she was interested and/or willing to mentor me in photography, it was a short-lived dream turned to reality. I have been able to assist and learn under Katrina in engagement shoots, family shoots, and weddings. I have been loving every minute of it and I am so excited to continue this journey with Love is All You Need and Katrina!

I have loved photography for ages, and I dabbled a bit back in high school, but it always felt more of a dream instead of something I would one day be pursuing further.

​

For me photography is so much more than just capturing a photo. It’s freezing that moment in time to cherish forever, it’s capturing the crooked smile, or the sparkle in your eye. It’s showcasing the fun and silly moments that are usually more intimate. That is in turn why I love photography and what I want to do for you. I want to give you an elegant and whimsical photo instead of a stiff rigid portrait. I want to give you the experience you would feel as if you were just hanging out at home snapping photos with your phone or taking selfies, but with a bit more structure!

I can’t wait to start working with you and capturing your photos!
