About me
Hello! I’m Michèle, a passionate photographer based in amsterdam
I was born and raised in Switzerland, in a village near Zürich, until I made the adventurous decision to move to the Netherlands—my grandfather’s home country.
I specialize in capturing authentic moments—those little glances, big laughs, and everything in between. Whether I’m photographing a couple, a family, an adventurous solo session, or an event, my goal is to create beautiful photos that feel timeless and true to you. To me, photography is as much about connection as it is about creativity. When you feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera, that’s when the magic happens—and it’s so much fun!
I look forward to connecting with you, getting to know who you are, what you love, and what you’re passionate about.

2025 - 10 years anniversary
it all started with horse photography
My wish for my 20th birthday? A good camera. But what next? I knew I wouldn’t improve my photography without truly understanding my new camera. So, I began taking classes and had the incredible opportunity to learn from a full-time wedding photographer during an internship. From 2015 onwards, I started offering horse photoshoots. Over the years, I explored various genres and discovered my passion for storytelling. I discovered the beauty in everyday moments—the laughter, the connections, and the small details that often go unnoticed. Since moving to Amsterdam, I’ve focused on couples, maternity, solo, and event photography.
