my mission
your unique love story
soft, loving memories
sincere storytelling
I consider the very fact that you've chosen to browse my website and consider Michaela Cox Photography to photograph your special moments a HUGE honor! There is an endless sea of photographers out there, and here you are! After shooting weddings for 5+ years, my sense of being exactly where I'm called to be has just become even more solidified with every season. I believe that every couple and individual has a beautiful and unique story worthy of telling. You aren't just another name on a project list. My heart is happiest when I get the opportunity to listen to you and get to know your soul. It's my greatest desire to form meaningful connection, serve you through my talents, and bring glory to God throughout the process. Through this longing to serve and my creative spirit, I realize the importance of providing you and an experience that goes above and beyond expectations of what you might have of a wedding photographer. After all, I couldn't do this without you!
intentionally captured
moments
When it comes to my shooting style, I make it a goal of mine to strike the balance between a documentary, candid approach and one that emphasizes intentionality and my knowledge and experience as an artist. I keep my eyes open for those small moments- a father's tear, a shared laugh between you and your maid of honor over an inside joke, the anticipation of your guests awaiting your walk to the altar- but I will also be there to provide guidance when the situation calls for it (think family formals, portraits of the two of you, etc.). I'll capture your big and small moments, and make sure you look your best as well! My editing style is romantic but true to color. As I've grown in my skills over the years, I've come to value that timeless and classic, yet still modern look that I bring out of my photos- and if you like my work, you do, too!
Now that you've read about my heart behind what I do, this space is dedicated to the nitty gritty and (practical) juicy details. When you hire me as your wedding photographer, these are a few perks that you can expect!
All of my pricing is available right here on my website. No needing to wait for brochures- it's all here in one place! Also enjoy NO wedding day travel fees with my packages.
As my client, you'll receive thoughtfully curated guides for things like engagement sessions, timeline planning, wedding day function and more.

SECOND SHOOTER
All of my wedding packages include a second shooter- most often my wonderfully talented hubby that's been shooting by my side for 4 years. This ensures your day is captured from more than one perspective and details don't go missed!
KEEPSAKE GIFTS
When you book my gold or diamond wedding packages, you'll also receive a special keepsake box of a few hand-selected prints, a usb thrumb-drive with all of your photos (along with an online digital gallery), and a little something extra! The keepsake box can also be added on to my elopement and ivory packages for an extra charge.
CUSTOMIZATION
If the packages I have listed don't quite fit your needs, we can work together to create a custom package that checks all of your boxes!
