It has come to a point in my life where I never get to take center stage anymore. It was a rejuvenating experience to get the opportunity to feel glamorous again. I encourage you to to capture this stage in your life while you can with Michelle.

I’m thrilled with the final images! It’s so special to capture this moment in time with my sons and celebrate our special relationship while feeling like I look like the best version of myself!

I knew from my headshot session that I could trust Michelle for beautiful images that would also be flattering and show me in my best light, so I was excited to capture some portraits with my children, in a way that we can all treasure for years yo come!

Don’t wait, you’ll never be younger than you are - do it today!

The images are absolutely stunning and You will not regret doing this shoot.

The hair and makeup made the experience glamorous. It is not often that the mother is subject of the photo since the focus is often on the children.

I feel that every mother should take time out of herself. Moments like these can never be captured again. I want to do it again and again as my daughter grows up.
— Michelle Klinger-Smith

ABOUT YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER

 

Michelle has spent the last decade developing her photographic style, passion, and specialty for photographing women in business. 

In 2020, Michelle became a mother herself and found a new appreciation for all mothers. She has quickly understood how fleeting our time is with our little ones.

Photography is a powerful art form that allows us to capture our family milestones and moments in our lives while leaving a legacy for future generations.

Sadly, as you flip through many old photo albums, you will notice mothers are often missing from the photographs. Michelle wants to help women exist in portraits and encourage busy mothers to remove the pressures of daily life - if only for an afternoon to embrace their beauty and strength.

Each photo shoot is custom designed to align with her client's style and personality to create a collection of stunning and timeless portraits to be shared with future generations. Many clients often remark that their fears of being in front of the camera faded instantly due to Michelle's guidance and expert posing. 

Michelle has been interviewed on NBC 6 local news and featured in various publications, including The Florida Luxury Guide, Ocean Drive Magazine, and the Bizz Talk Radio Show. Her work has graced the covers of multiple magazines. 

Savannah College of Art and Design has recognized Michelle's talent as a Distinguished Alumnus. She began this work as part of her artist residency within the SCAD Alumni Atelier Associate in Savannah.
