Love for Yellow Umbrella:

"Michelle took graduation pictures for my friends and I. She did such an amazing job with managing all of our schedules for individual and group shots that helped us create incredible memories!! She scouted multiple locations that created a great mix of pictures for us. Thank you Michelle! Can’t wait to schedule more shoots with you in the future!"

"Michelle was absolutely fabulous to work with! She did newborn photos for us and we couldn’t have asked for more. She really cares and spent time making sure we got every picture we wanted. Thanks again Michelle!!"

Family with newborn smiles for a portrait in their home.

Love for Yellow Umbrella:

"Our experiences with our photo shoots were incredible! Michelle was communicative, kind, and, most importantly, loving to our babies. Scheduling was easy, and Michelle was willing to squeeze us into her schedule when it was most convenient for us — a tough feat when working with a pregnancy/newborn timeframe! Our photos came out stunning. Michelle encouraged us to be comfortable in both our clothing and environment. She made sure the love in our family shone in every picture. We can’t wait for our next photo shoot with Yellow Umbrella Imagery!"
