More than just a portfolio, I strive to provide the photography of your dreams through a seamless and refined experience. I also provide eye-roll worthy jokes, genuine encouragement, and the world's best guacamole recipe. It's no surprise that 90% of my current clientele comes from word of mouth referrals (yes, the guac really is THAT good!)

A snapshot into my life
When I'm not busy capturing your best self, you can find me hiking, skiing, impulse buying at Costco, and, most recently, running the Pittsburgh Half Marathon and Tough Mudder with my newly engaged fiancée!
With all the spare time that leaves, I also work full time as a nurse at Allegheny General Hospital in their Cardiothoracic Surgical ICU. On especially tough days, I love coming home to Theo, our engagement puppy, who is still under a year old!
In my spare time, you'll find me dabbling in landscape photography, but I am most passionate about capturing people and what matters to them. I also LOVE what I do, and I love to have fun doing it.
When I'm Not Behind the Camera
Michael did an absolutely amazing job with our son’s senior photography session! He was very professional and detail-oriented yet so friendly and fun. He took so many shots - different poses covering both traditional and creative styles. We just could not be happier with the images. They are wonderful! Michael really captured our son’s personality. We will treasure these photos for years to come. We would wholeheartedly recommend Michael if you’re looking to capture a special moment in life!

When it was time for my son's senior pictures, I knew I wanted Michael to be our photographer. I texted him and he gave me all the details and told me the best times for the best photos. He asked what I was looking for as far as location and ideas. After telling him I had none, he was quick to give me recommendations so I could decide. When the time came, Michael was excellent from start to finish. The pictures came back quickly and I loved them all! The hardest part of the whole process was deciding which ones to choose. Thank you Michael for capturing my son perfectly.

We loved his portfolio from the very start, and yet he went above and beyond our expectations. We could not be happier with our wedding photos. He made us feel comfortable and made us laugh all the way until the end. Michael- You have such a gift, and we are so thankful you shared it with us. How can we pick a favorite picture when they are all AMAZING!

Michael's photos of our daughter’s club volleyball team and individual shots were phenomenal! This was the first time we have seen his work and I would not hesitate to contact him for other photography needs! My daughter said that he was easy to work with and made the photo shoot go smoothly. Our daughter wants all the photos he took!!
