Behind the Lens

MHPhotoBranding-20.jpg

Hi! I'm Michela, a portrait photographer based in Metro-Detroit. I specialize in capturing your unique personality and the special moments of individuals and families. My professional journey has taken me from a freelance photographer to digital art curator/content manager, and even media director. I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Photography from Columbia College Chicago in 2023.

​

While I love working locally, I’m always excited to travel for shoots—whether it’s for a special project or a new adventure, I’m ready to bring my vision to wherever you are.

​

When I'm not behind the camera, you can find me crocheting, traveling, rocking brightly colored hair, and sipping on way too much Diet Coke.

Capturing Moments, Creating Memories

Celebrating you, just as you are. 

I believe every person has a unique story to tell. I embrace and celebrate people of all backgrounds, identities, and expressions. My goal is to capture you in your most authentic, and radiant form. You deserve to be seen in your best light, exactly as you are. Every shoot is about capturing that, and I’m here to make sure your personality and beauty shine through in every frame.
