Hi, I'm Michelle.

​I grew up in Weslaco, Texas, and have proudly called Austin home since I first set foot on the Forty Acres in 2002. I’m a mom, a middle school administrator, a proud Texas Longhorn, and an avid tennis player — and I also love photography!

That passion began when my son was born. I picked up a Canon camera to document our family and quickly found myself behind the lens at every family gathering, capturing moments and creating photo albums as gifts. My father, Noble Allen, was my biggest supporter. Just before his passing in 2016, he encouraged me to take the next step and start my own photography business. With his encouragement, I upgraded my equipment, took a few courses, and never looked back.

I specialize in natural light photography, capturing authentic moments with a bright and airy feel. Because of my full-time role in education, I’m available for sessions one weekend each month. Please reach out for availability — I’d love to work with you!
