Hello there Beautiful People! I'm Michelle owner + creative behind Michelle Monet' Photography! I've been behind the camera since 2006 and I can still remember my very first "real" camera; a HP Photosmart compact camera. It was popping back then but YIKES the image quality now is scary! That thing took actual batteries, had no zoom functionality AND had a wrist strap! 😂 I took that little thing EVERYWHERE OK! Swipe for some actual footage. 🥴🤣
After college, I took on my first job and with my very first paycheck; I brought a Kodak EasyShare Z5010. I wanted to step up my picture taking game so bad 😂 I was PUMPED about my upgrade ok! Of course I've upgraded again and I've been ever since. So I've pretty much had a camera in my hand my entire life but I never really did anything serious with it. It was more of a hobby for me at the time. So, how did I get here?
Well,
I loved taking pictures.
I loved creating things.
I loved making people feel good.
I loved styling +
I loved making things look pretty.
So, ⏩ Fast forward to 2020
I combined all my talents and finally started putting them to good use. I randomly would style outfits I dreamed of wearing outside but never did (I'm shy y'all) and photograph them. Why? I don't have a clue lol. I use to buy fabric as a backdrop just to take pictures of all the jewelry I had and also never wore lol. And, I absolutely loved doing of food. Then one day a friend of mine asked me if I'd be interested in shooting her shoe line that she's working on. Ummmm YES please, I'd love too! So for the longest time, I was already doing product photography for fun before I even really knew what it was. And that's what led to the start of my business...MMP! Welcome guys!
