i am michelle.

hihi! I love hot weather, any excuse to eat dessert, good music, cute kitties, Louboutins, Top Model, and my unhealthy obsession with my iPhone. I say weird things like "hot sauce" as words of excitement, post twitter updates way too frequently, and hope to one day be recognized on the street. this is my tumblr.

foamofthesea asked: Hi! First of all, I adore your photography. It makes me feel refreshed every time I visit your blog. I was wondering, how do you get all of your subjects to looked so relaxed and perfectly posed? Are they all models, or do you give them direction? Thanks! xoxo

I just act like myself, have fun, and direct them to be relaxed.  The subjects on my blog are portrait clients, not models (unless it is a fashion shoot - in which case they are models).  I direct everyone I work with, be it a client, or model.
