Your family,

Honest photos of this season of life

michele equitz

Bellevue, WA based photographer

I’m Michele, the eyes and heart behind the camera. I’ve taken photos on and off for years, but recently I felt a strong pull to come back to it, with a focus on the stories tucked inside everyday life. I’m not here to make your family look perfect; I’m here to notice the way your kid reaches for your hand, the way you laugh with your partner, the tiny moments you’ll want to remember later.

If you’re looking for photos that feel like your real life, just a bit more beautifully framed, you’re in the right place.

“From the moment we met Michele, she made our chaotic little crew feel completely at ease. The photos feel like us, just a little softer and more beautiful than everyday life.”

“Michele somehow caught all the tiny in-between moments I didn’t even realize I wanted to remember. Nothing felt forced, and the photos feel like memories, not a photoshoot.”

“We’ve done family photos before, but this was the first time I didn’t stress about keeping the kids ‘perfect.’ Michele embraced the chaos, and the images are honestly some of my favorites ever.”
