I am thrilled to share with you the amazing photos Michelle Photography created  for my Little Girls Pearl and Crystal necklace and bracelet set in my Etsy shop.

MEET MICHELLE

I'm Michelle, a portrait and wedding photographer in Huntington Beach, California. Loving living in beautiful Orange County, CA that is filled with so many colorful, fun places to create gorgeous memories! I love that I get the opportunity to make people feel and look beautiful through my photography.  Michelle Photography specializes in wedding, portrait, corporate, and childrens photography. We have been featured in numerous publications such as Grace Ormonde, Modern Bride, Ceremony Mag and PDN and have also been on Platinum Weddings & HGTV Weddings.  I have 2 little girls now who inspire me so much.  My favorite thing to do is to take my girls out to fun locations and let them pretend to be little models while I capture their sweet faces.  I'm so happy to have partnered with Linda to shoot these beautiful pieces of jewelry.  My girls absolutely love them, and I can tell they feel so beautiful when they wear them.  Every little girl should have their own set!  These are perfect for flower girls, birthday girls, or just to make any little girl feel special!  I think they would make a great Easter basket gift!

Thank you so much Michelle for

making my jewelry look so special!

Going Coastal

I just can't resist another spring visit to the coast and Seabrook where the Coastal Living's Idea house is.
It's such a quiet area of Washington's coast and a great 
place to get away!
If you just can't get there, be sure to check out their site for some great ideas and the story of the town.  It's really unique.  The views of the rugged coastline there are amazing.
