Most of my portraits are captured in my studio which is located in my home in Algona, Iowa. However, my sessions are not limited to the studio. I love to photograph on location, especially when my clients know of a location that will make their images uniquely their own. Desiring a more intimate session? I am happy to come to your home!
Images created in our studio are retouched to reveal the very best version of you on your very best day. Under eye circles wrinkles are lightened, stray hairs are addressed, blemishes are removed, eyes are brightened, and should you have any area of concern that you would like us to address, we are happy to accommodate in our retouching.
In a word, Yes! Our retouching and our products are guaranteed, ordered to specification with the highest quality canvases, leather albums, and gift prints. Wall portraits framed in our studio are guaranteed for life. All images captured by Portraits by Michelle are archived in multiple locations for image retrieval.
The amount that each client spends varies depending on what is purchased. Classic session fees for one person are $150 with $25/additional subject and wall portraits start at $650. Fine Art session fees for one person are $150 with $50 for each additional subject and wall portraits start at $800. I am happy to meet with you to answer your additional questions with a no obligation consultation.
