I believe your wedding deserves to be documented as a complete story, not squeezed into a small window of time. That’s why I photograph weddings as either a full day or a full weekend.
Full-day coverage includes up to 12 hours of photography, giving us the freedom to document everything from the quiet moments of getting ready to the energy of the dance floor without making your day revolve around the clock.
For couples planning a weekend filled with welcome parties, rehearsal dinners, wedding-day celebrations, or day-after gatherings, full-weekend coverage allows me to tell the story beyond just the wedding itself.
The goal is simple: you enjoy your wedding as it unfolds, and I’ll be there to preserve the story of it.

I’m so excited you’re here and considering Michaela Mae & Co. to document your wedding day.
I know choosing your wedding photographer is about so much more than finding someone who takes beautiful photos. You’re choosing the person who will be beside you for some of the most meaningful, emotional, and joy filled moments of your day.
