about me

Hi, my name is

Michaela

Your storyteller & guide

I believe the most powerful wedding photos aren’t taken — they’re felt.
They happen in the space between a direction and a reaction, in the quiet confidence of being truly seen. My work is about finding that space with you.

From Magazine Editor to Your Visual Storyteller


For years, I worked as the Photography Editor for a luxury lifestyle magazine. My days were spent commissioning photographers, art-directing shoots, and curating images for cover stories. This taught me what makes an image not just beautiful, but enduring: authenticity, composition, and narrative.


Now, I bring that editorial eye behind the camera in order to craft the visual narrative of your day with the precision and depth of a storyteller.

Driven by Human Connection


I am also a part-time psychology student on the path to becoming a licensed therapist. This isn’t just a side note — it’s central to how I work.


I understand the vulnerability of being photographed and the dynamics of human connection.

My approach is intuitive and empathetic, designed to help you feel at ease, not perform.


This is how we create portraits that reveal your true relationship, not just a pose.

A Global Soul, For Global Souls


I’m British-Filipina, married to a Frenchman, and my love for travel and connection has led me to call cities across Asia and Europe home. This life between cultures has fine-tuned my ability to connect with people from all backgrounds, wherever their celebration takes place.


I am your photographer if you’re an expat/immigrant, in a binational relationship, or simply a culturally curious couple planning a destination wedding. I understand the nuances of blending traditions and creating a day that feels uniquely yours, anywhere in the world.

Let's Create Something Meaningful.


If you’re planning an intimate wedding or elopement and value authenticity over pretense, I would be honoured to be your guide and your photographer. Let’s not just make pictures; let’s make memories that feel like you.
