..I'm Michelle :) I'm a SAHM with a passion for photography. I married my childhood sweetheart 9 years ago and we've been together for 18 years. We have two beautiful children, Charlotte who is 7 and William is 5 :) And we're Aussies :D
I've always had a passion for photography. I remember my first camera when I was in the 3rd grade, it was long and flat and pink and it made a 'ping!' sound when you pressed the shutter.
I loved photography all through high school, always making excuses to skip some other class so I could use the darkroom.
My husband bought me my first SLR camera for my 17th birthday, a Canon EOS 500 N. That was back in the days of film!
In 2005 I got my first digital camera, a Fuji FinePix P&S, just in time to take away on our honeymoon (along with my SLR of course!)
In 2010 I finally took the plunge and upgraded my beloved SLR to a DSLR and I haven't looked back. I started shooting in Manual in February 2011, just in time for my first big wedding shoot.
People have always encouraged me to start my own photography business but for now I'm happy to be able to take beautiful photos of my babies and maybe shoot some friends and family along the way. I've even had the privilege of shooting five weddings!
