Hello!!! My name is Michelle Adrianne Hall and what I want you to know about me is that I truly LOVE what I do. I started taking photography classes in high school and definitely was the photo nerd staying late in the lab to develop photos, my mind was always thinking about the next photo opportunity and had a million photos hung on my bedroom walls. Fast forward 10 years later, I am still a little dorky, daydreaming whenever I have time, and now have a house full of walls plastered with artwork… but that’s who I am!
When working with clients, I use my best (actually boarder line terrible) jokes to add an element of fun in all of my interactions. I truly believe that the best photos come from people being themselves and being happy, silly and carefree. Sure I can pose you, your family or your kiddos but the best photos will always be of someone’s personality shining through.
When I’m not behind the lens, I spend most of my time with my amazing family. I am the mother to two wonderful girls Ava and Ruby (my fur baby) and married to my high school sweetheart Steve. We spend our “free time” going to movies, taking walks around our neighborhood and exploring the newest restaurant.
Things I Love
- Movies! From Jurassic Park to The Sound of Music… I never get tired of spending an afternoon lounging on my couch getting lost in a good movie.
- Tacos! My first agenda whenever I travel is to research the best taco spot. My 4 year old daughter is already following in my footsteps as Mexican food has quickly become her favorite!
- Lipstick! Pinks, red, oranges… you name it, I own it!
- Music! I define myself as having one of the most eclectic arrays of Pandora stations. They range from Bruno Mars and Bon Jovi to Michael Bolton (yes long blonde hair, sappy 90s singer Michel Bolton) and Nat King Cole.
- Dogs! I have owned dogs throughout my entire life and now is no exception. I adopted my 3-legged dog in 2014 and am amazed everyday by her perseverance.
I get asked all the time “where does the Elle Anne” come from in your company name?” Well… unfortunately with Michelle Hall being a pretty popular name, that was not a choice for the name of my company but I really wanted the name to be something that specifically represented me. So I went with Mich[ELLE] Adri[ANNE], taking parts from both my first and middle name.
