Xo,Michelle Gilley

Hi, I’m Michelle! I’m a wife, mom of two, and a lover of Target hauls, Sephora treats, and a good caffeine fix. I’m at my happiest chasing sunsets, and summer is when I thrive most—especially with my favorite trips, like a weekend in Lake George. If I’m not cheering at a sports field or a cheer competition, you’ll find me making a fun Reel or TikTok.

But beyond the fun, I know how fleeting these moments are. I lost my mom when I was young, and the few photos I have are priceless. That’s why I created Michelle Faye Photography: to ensure families never miss out.

I believe beautiful, high-end photography should be accessible to every family. And when I’m turning my home into a weekend studio—thanks to my supportive family letting me kick them out—I’m making sure you have these chapters preserved. The ordinary moments now are the ones you’ll treasure later—and that’s why I do this.

Let's Document this season of life
