NYC LIFESTYLE AND FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHER

Natural Images with a Polished Point of View

Whether I’m photographing a family or a brand, I focus on the real connection, personality, and details that tell your story. My approach is relaxed and fun, because I believe the best photos happen when you feel completely like yourself.

Where I work

While I’m based in New York City, I travel throughout the Tri-State area, the Hamptons, and South Florida to work with families and founders.

MEET MICHELLE ROSE: YOUR GO-TO PHOTOGRAPHER IN NYC

MY CREATIVE JOURNEY

My life behind the lens began when I was about 10 years old at summer camp. After I quickly learned that I was allergic to just about everything the camp had to offer, I ended up with a double period of photography. I stepped into the cold, crisp darkroom, watched photos develop right before my eyes, and knew I was home. →
