Your story. Told Fully.

I believe your wedding deserves to be documented as a complete story, not squeezed into a small window of time. That’s why I offer versatile collections that let us tell every part of your wedding celebration.

From an intimate nikkah to a joyful haldi or a wedding celebration that unfolds over several days, your photographs should reflect what makes it yours.

My approach blends candid storytelling with gently guided, editorial portraits. I’m there for the meaningful traditions, the energy in the room, and the moments with your people that you’ll want to remember long after the celebration ends.

Let’s talk soon!

I’m so excited you’re here and considering Michaela Mae & Co. to document your wedding day.

Every family celebrates differently. I want to learn which traditions you’re including, who matters most to you, and what deserves particular care throughout your celebration.

Before your event, we’ll talk through the schedule, meaningful moments, photography guidelines, and any privacy or modesty preferences you’d like me to understand. That conversation helps me document your day thoughtfully while giving you space to be present with your family and each other.
