About

Hi there! I am a wedding, elopement & portrait photographer based in Los Angeles, but I travel all over the country for photography sessions! I focus on engagements, weddings, elopements, family lifestyle portraits, and lifestyle branding photos for creatives & businesses. Most photographers limit the amount of photos they return to a small number, but I always turn over all of the successful images we make together, which can be a lot :) I am super passionate about nature & natural light and constantly try to incorporate both of those elements into my photography sessions. If you want dreamy, aesthetically beautiful photos for you or your family, reach out to me and let's get you scheduled for a session! IG is @michellelanning_photo

Michelle is amazing ! I did my engagement and maternity photoshoot with her. I love both of them. her style is very clean and the color/editing is just right. She knows how to make you comfortable and direct you if u don’t know how to pose like me. She is very sweet and professional :)

Well what can I say about Michelle that wouldn’t be so gushy! I love this woman. She was so professional, extremely lively, she was respectful and communicative and made each process both the engagement photos and the wedding perfect! Making the investment for a quality photographer I can honestly say was the best choice we could have made, and in all fairness we wanted a photographer that we would feel comfortable being ourselves around and omg, we found her! I can’t even express in words how amazing our engagement photos turned out and how fantastic the time was. Her professionalism and how alert and prepared she was at my wedding left me at ease and also got me excited. I honestly had a flurry of emotions overwhelming me that day and her energy and “can do” attitude made my day so much better. I can’t be more appreciative. Thank you Michelle so much for everything! Choose her!

Michelle was amazing! We can’t stop looking at our engagement photos and as we keep looking at them we continue to fall in love with them. Michelle was open to everything and even suggested poses for us to do. We loved everything about this shoot!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I have set pricing for all of my photography on my website, but sometimes I offer discounts!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When I work with someone new, I like to ask what their needs and expectations are so that I can understand what they are looking for and what does not interest them (style, location, poses, etc.) I like to explain the process for each type of photo shoot and decided on a location together that will suit my client's needs.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have many years of experience photographing weddings, elopements, engagements, proposals, family sessions, branding sessions, newborns, interiors, nature.
