Chanhassen Child Photographer :: Minnesota Landscape Arboretum

Wednesday I had a chance to spend time with two absolutely beautiful little girls. We went to the MN Landscape Arboretum which always makes for a beautiful backdrop. Between the sun kissed blond hair, perfect fair skin and super cute dresses, the session made me wish, a tiny bit, that I had a little ...

Minneapolis Wedding Photographer :: Anne + Brian = Married!

Last Friday I had the wonderful opportunity to capture Anne & Brian's wedding. The minute I walked in the door, I knew it was going to be a special day. Anne reminds me of a 1950's Hollywood star. She possesses so much glamour and class. I could tell her handsome husband agreed. Here is a sneak ...

Minneapolis MN Wedding Photographer

Meet Michelle

“I’m not sure which is harder,” says Michelle Tanner. “Going to the dentist or talking about oneself.”

Luckily, Michelle’s work does much of her talking for her: fresh, clean, modern. “I work actively to stay up on modern photography trends, but ultimately want to create a timeless product. I love the storytelling aspect of photography. I want you to look back on your images and be taken back to that moment, feeling the same feelings you did when the picture was captured.”

Michelle also understands it can be overwhelming for couples and families to pick a photographer who best complements their personalities. “There are numerous photographers in the Twin Cities area, and we all have tons of passion for what we do,” she says. As to Michelle, her emphasis is on great composition, without forced posing. She possesses a real knack for being in the right place at the right time, capturing natural moments as they happen. Her eye is quick and the shots are crisp, meaning images stand on their own without need for extreme editing or re-touching.

On the professional side, she aims for best possible communication – both timely and clear – before, during and after the wedding or session. She strives for optimism, honesty, organization, flexibility and – as much as possible – a stress-free day for you! Ever-calm amid the storm, Michelle remains “invisible” as needed, but can easily step up to guided directing at a moment’s notice.
