Michelle Moore — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 20:28:37 +0000

Happy Monday! The sun is shining in Seattle – and gives us excitement for the upcoming Spring & Summer months. Here is a look back from this past year at one of our Class of 2012 Senior Reps, Anna. Anna was photographed in one of our gorgeous Seattle Parks with the beautiful tall grass, and lovely back-lit sun. I love that she brought her dog to her session, she followed us around the entire day and was so well-behaved! We are always happy to accommodate you bringing your pets, just be sure to chat with us before-hand. Thanks!

Windy Nature Inspired Senior Portraits with Maryliah, Class of 2012

Michelle Moore — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 01:20:04 +0000

A few months ago I ventured to one of Seattle’s most popular parks to photograph Maryliah for her Senior Portraits. It was windy – but beautiful. I love that she chose to have our hair & makeup stylist [Jenny] place a small braid at the crown of her hair. It really added to the soft romantic vibe of her wardrobe and location. Choosing a nature location was especially perfect for the shots at the end with her dog! We encourage you to bring your pets to your [Senior Portraits]. ENJOY!

Horseshoe Boutique 2011/2012 Fall/Winter Lookbook

Michelle Moore — Sat, 17 Sep 2011 14:00:00 +0000

I’m sure many of you don’t know this, but throughout college I worked retail part-time, and did photography part-time until I took my business FULL-time in 2006. Through my years of working at local boutiques around Seattle I met quite a few amazing women and people in business and the fashion industry. I truly believe [Horseshoe] boutique in Ballard is one of the best women’s boutiques we have in the city. Owner Jill Andersen has an extremely kind heart, and the kind of passion for her job you don’t find just anywhere. Jill has been an amazing friend and mentor, and when she asked to hire me to create a lookbook for her brand-new online store I couldn’t have been more thrilled!

The shoot was amazing, we shot along the water at Discovery Park, near the lighthouse. Jill and her store manager Mandy Kruger pulled out all the stops to create each look (12 in total) to highlight the best of the Northwest with all her favorite brands they carry in the store (and now online!). I always love working with Jill, she has such a strong vision, and I was thrilled to be there to capture it all. I think the post-processing really is what ties together the look. I created a washed out, grainy “film look” to compliment the style of Jill’s shop (both in person and online). The action used came from Red Leaf Studio’s [Film Shift Actions] they so graciously sent me a few months ago to experiment with.

Check out the new [Horseshoe] website here, or stop by next time you are in the Ballard neighborhood of Seattle to see the shop in person. They will be cycling through all the images over the fall and winter, so be sure to visit the site often to see more images from the shoot!!

Michelle Moore is available for commercial fashion and designer lookbooks in the Seattle and Los Angeles area throughout the year. Please inquire for more information by sending an email to [studio@michellemoore.com]. Thank you!!

Creative Collaboration, “Sunday Brunch” Editorial

Michelle Moore — Sun, 30 May 2010 22:51:49 +0000

My very good friend (and one might say mentor) [Erin Vey] and I decided at the beginning of the year to do a fun project together in the spring time, to get our creative juices flowing. Last month all the pieces came together for our fun project, entitled “Tea Party” – with two girls and a dog! It was really amazing working with Erin (and crew) and bringing two worlds of photography together (Erin shoots dogs). Here is my take on our day at the park!

Enjoy!

To see Erin’s take on the day, she her [Images Here]. Even though we were both shooting the same scene, I think it is so interesting to see our different take on the day. I LOVE her images!!
