THE MK STUDIOS EXPERIENCE

The MK Studios experience has always been about freedom – to express your individuality, your style & personality, and the freedom to tell your story with images that reflect who you are. I’m here to capture your TRUE self, and I believe you deserve to be celebrated with a photoshoot that authentically represents your legacy for the rest of time.

My mission is simple: for all women of all ages & sizes to know their true beauty exceeds beyond what you find in mainstream magazines. Whether you’re in need of new headshots, grad card photos, boudoir imagery to gift your partner (or just for you!), or photos of you with the people you love most, I tailor your needs into a dream photoshoot. My shooting style is fashionable, bold, bright, and a little offbeat.

Michelle, thank you so much for these photos - you are so talented! I have always hated to have my picture taken because I come out so terrible. You were able to produce images I am not embarrassed to share. Because of you, I now have some pictures I can leave to my kids when I'm gone.

Phenomenal work and the pictures look great! The shoot was also one of my favorite times because I got to spend time with Michelle.

FAQs

WHAT IS YOUR STANCE ON RETOUCHING?

All the images you purchase will be naturally edited, high resolution images. I will smooth out obvious blemishes, but I don't want to alter who you are so, I won't slim your arms in every photo or make you a size two. You portrait session is about celebrating yourself and embracing you true, authentic beauty. This is about being you and owning it! If you wake up the morning of your session with a zit on your face, not to worry - we can zap that rascal out!

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR?

My general advice is to wear pieces that make you feel comfortable. If you are uncomfortable in any of your clothing, that will definitely come through in the final images. I also advise bringing several outfits to choose from across different categories. For example, if you have a casual blouse + jeans outfit, bring a dress as your second outfit. Having something causal and something formal will give you different looks and add more variety to your images. I also think it's a great idea to bring several accessories. Accessories can make one outfit look like three!

DOES THE SESSION FEE INCLUDE DIGITAL FILES OF ALL THE IMAGES?

No, it does not include digital files but you can purchase them! The session fee basically secures your spot on my calendar, pays for my assistant, the professional hair and makeup, and gas for me to get to your session.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO POSE. IS A PORTRAIT SESSION FOR ME?

Yes! Posing is completely my job, and I will instruct you, guide you, and walk you through it. Don't worry - I got you!

WHAT SHOULD I BRING?

Water, chapstick, your outfits and accessories, and any props you might want to include. I like to keep it simple!
