Hello, I’m Michelle — The Confidence Photographer.
I help women feel confident in photos, particularly those who would usually rather be anywhere else than in front of a camera!
Some of my clients tell me they hate having their photograph taken. Others believe they simply aren’t photogenic. And many are confident, accomplished women who feel completely comfortable in their work — but much less comfortable when a camera is pointed at them.
My job is to change that experience.
My shoots are relaxed, natural and very personal. There are no intimidating studio lights or lots of equipment — just me, my camera and plenty of conversation. It often feels much more like being out with a friend who happens to have brought her camera along than being on a formal photoshoot.
Before becoming a photographer, I worked in human rights for more than ten years. Connecting with people — whatever their background, profession or level of seniority — has always been one of my greatest strengths, and it is at the heart of how I photograph people now.
When you feel comfortable with the person behind the camera, you stop worrying quite so much about how you look. You relax, your personality comes through and the photographs begin to feel much more like you.
I offer Personal Branding Photography, Headshots and Confidence Shoots, working with business owners, professionals and women going through a new chapter in their lives.
Because I genuinely believe the camera isn’t the problem. With the right experience, it can actually become part of the solution.
