MY PROCESS
WHAT’S INCLUDED IN EVERY SESSION
01.
Pre-session consultation
Every session begins with a thoughtful conversation.
We’ll talk through your vision, your story, and how you want your images to feel. Whether you have a fully formed concept or just a spark of an idea, we’ll shape it together into something cohesive and aligned.
This preparation allows you to show up feeling confident, clear, and fully yourself.
02.
Guidance on Location, Wardrobe and Movement
You don’t need to have it all figured out — that’s my role.
From choosing locations that reflect your energy to refining wardrobe selections that feel elevated and natural, I guide you with experience and intention.
During the session, direction is clear and intuitive — structured enough to feel supported, spacious enough to feel free.
03.
Professionally Edited, High-Resolution Imagery
Each image is thoughtfully edited with clean, true-to-life tones and an artistic eye.
Retouching is refined and natural — enhancing without overdoing, preserving texture and authenticity. The final collection reflects you at your best while still feeling honest and real.
Delivered in high resolution, ready for print, web, and wherever your story is meant to live.
04.
Private online gallery for easy viewing & downloads
Your curated gallery is delivered in a beautifully designed online space for effortless viewing, sharing, and downloading.

“Micaela is first and foremost an artist. That being said, she will take your vision and turn it into art.
Behind the camera Micaela guides you in such a way that not only makes you feel beautiful but also effortless.
Both the vision and execution is a creative collaboration, which might be why they are the only photos I’ve ever taken that capture my true spirit”Emilia Greenstein
“Micaela’s work, vision and skill behind the camera make her one of the most talented photographers I’ve worked with.
She intuitively knows how to gently guide postures, angles and subtle adjustments in ways that feel natural rather than posed.
Her innate ability to truly see your inner essence and have it come alive in the images she captures is remarkable. She is a maker of Magic”Denise Disharoon
“I’ve been working with Micaela for over 7 years now, and she’s photographed me at many different stages of my work and life.
She has a rare ability to make shoots feel relaxed and effortless while still delivering images that are clean, professional and genuinely beautiful.
She’s reliable, thoughtful and always delivers the photos quickly which matters more than people realize”Tris Thorp
