Classic. Joyful. Romantic. Passionate about providing timeless images for those who cherish love, treasure memories and adventure together. Hello and welcome!
(65)
My name is Michelle and I am a wedding photographer of classic, joyful and romantic weddings. I am passionate about providing timeless images for those who cherish love, treasure memories, adventure together and share a sentimental heart. I love to celebrate and capture one of the best days of your life with honor, respect and joy. I completely understand firsthand that planning a wedding is one o
f the most exciting and sometimes confusing things you will ever undertake. In understanding that, I have made it my goal to make the photographic part of your process fun, simple and enjoyable. My heart is to give you an incredible photographic experience from beginning to end. I want your experience to be all it can be. I want you to feel as strong a love for each other as my husband and I do and to feel natural, happy and comfortable in front of the lens. You should look back with love and fondness on every moment captured. A decade down the road from now, I want you to see just how classic and timeless you look even though the styles may have changed. I hope that you will smile together at your hair before it started greying and laugh at the sweet wrinkle lines you see in each other’s faces fifty years from now. So that’s why I do things like I do…encouraging you in your love and keeping YOU in mind, giving you a wonderful photographic experience. As much as I love photographing the rings, the florals, and the other lovely details of your day, my focus still lies largely on the tender moments, the shared laughter, the stunning portraits together and the unexpected expressions and the gathering of friends and family. I want to capture the moments in your wedding day that you will treasure forever. I whole-heartedly believe that your wedding is not just about that one day, but the entire experience from the planning stage to the growing old together. I want to provide you with images that you can look back upon and smile, laugh, and remember…to remind you of your beginning and your foundation. Your photography is a large part of your wedding experience and it should be fun, real and memorable.
Tia and Michael’s engagement session saw golden sun, rain, rain in the sun, an epic rainbow and skies that just seemed to “open up.” It was an incredible session on Skyline Drive and I can’t wait for their September wedding! I’m hoping for amazing weather then too.
So many wonderful moments we’re had at Susan and Daniel’s wedding day. Feel free to scroll through some of the highlights on the blog this evening!

The skies opened up just in time for Tia and Michael’s engagement session!
Sadly, Susan and Daniel had to say goodbye to this sweet boy Bowie less than a week after their wedding. He was such a dear boy and I am so glad that my team and I could capture some precious memories for them. Tonight, Susan, Daniel and Bowie are on the blog…

Stefani and Darnell’s historic downtown Leesburg engagement session is over on the blog tonight along with their love story. Not only are these two great together but also, I kinda really enjoy historic downtown Leesburg!
Brooke and Boydie are married! The weather was perfect Wednesday as these two entered into the covenant of marriage in an intimate ceremony with their closest family and friends around them, before God Almighgy. It was not without challenges leading up to the day, most notably Brooke’s broken foot bone. But with the help of a scooter, a stool and friends…she did it! I couldn’t be more honored to have served Brooke and Boydie! Congratulations!!! Here’s a sneak peek at the day.

Good gracious! Monday’s maternity session with Mel and Aaron at was absolutely stunning! I have to share a peek! The weather was PERFECT and it’s also close to their first wedding anniverary (they tied the knot here at as well!). I’m so excited for their growing family! Can you guess the gender?
Lauren and Matt’s enchanting engagement session is on the blog today! This Spring session and their sweet story makes me excited for their wedding later this year!

When the sun sets all around you in every direction and then it gets dark and you see the flash and the diamond…it’s indescribable really. The precision, the solar flares, the beauty…the most intelligent human could never do this. Only God. I’d travel again to see it in totality!
Wedding day bridal portraits at never disappoint. I’m looking forward to being back at this historic place this year.
Who’s ready for florals and sunshine?!
I know I’m not on here very often but I thought I’d pop in to mention how much I love engagement sessions not far from my home. Why? Because my absolute favorite places for engagement sessions are not far. And with restaurant week coming up, it’s the perfect time for engagement sessions. Here are a few of my favorite locations not far from where I live:marsh (featured here)

There’s nothing quite like a classic black and white at the Lincoln Memorial…
Congratulations Claire-Marie and Caleb! What a joy to serve you and your families. Félicitations pour ton mariage!
Thank you Christina and Josh for such a sweet and thorough review!
“Lieb Photographic was one of the first vendors we hired when we got engaged in September 2022. I found her through our venue (Morais Vineyards) since she’s one of their preferred vendors for photography. I was immediately drawn to her “airy” fine art photo style. We scheduled a phone call and Michelle was so welcoming and easy going that she put us at ease. We decided to do 2 engagement sessions to take advantage of the different seasons.
Our first engagement session with Michelle solidified that we had made the best choice in choosing her as our photographer. We don’t usually get our photos taken and Michelle was a pro at making us feel comfortable and helped us pose, but also gave us room for us to be ourselves. Throughout the year, she kept in touch by sending us her Wedding Guide (advice for planning your photo session and her other pro tips) and by sending open dates for photoshoots. She even mailed us a thank you gift (his and her vow books that we ultimately used in our wedding, which was very nice to not have to order another thing for our wedding). Michelle has consistently been a fast emailer and open to ideas. Our second engagement session was a new location for us and Michelle, Longwood Gardens in PA. She was so excited to go there and quickly found the best locations to take photos and navigate the crowds. Oh my goodness, the pictures Michelle took are absolutely stunning. If you’re thinking about doing 2 engagement sessions, I highly recommend it because the 2nd time around I felt much more comfortable in front of the camera. Also, the variety of photos we have is awesome. Plus, it’s another special day to look back on! On our wedding day, December 10, 2023, the weather was bad for photos - overcast, dark/gray all day, rainy, 90% humidity in the 60’s. However, I was not worried at all because Michelle knows our venue, Morais, inside and out and has worked in so many different weather conditions - which is 100% a huge benefit to picking a vendor familiar with your venue. Michelle’s photos from our wedding are incredibly beautiful and so special to us and our families.”
“Should nothing of our efforts stand, No legacy survive, Unless the Lord does raise the house, In vain its builders strive. To you who boast tomorrow’s gain, Tell me, what is your life? A mist, it vanishes at dawn, All glory be to Christ.
All glory be to Christ our King,
All glory be to Christ.
His rule and reign we’ll ever sing,
All glory be to Christ.
His will be done, His kingdom come, On earth as is above. Who is Himself our daily bread, Praise Him the Lord of love. Let living waters satisfy the thirsty without price. Come eat of Him, our Living Bread, all glory be to Christ.
All glory be to Christ our King,
All glory be to Christ.
His rule and reign we’ll ever sing,
All glory be to Christ.
When on the day, the great I Am, the Faithful and the True, The Lamb who was for sinner’s slain, Is making all things new.
Behold our God shall live with us, And be our Steadfast Light, And we shall e’er His people be, All glory be to Christ.
All glory be to Christ our King,
All glory be to Christ.
His rule and reign we’ll ever sing,
All glory be to Christ.
All glory be to Christ our King,
All glory be to Christ.
His rule and reign we’ll ever sing,
All glory be to Christ.”
Happy New Year’s Eve! Cheers to all the newly married couples of 2023 and to the ones tying the knot in 2024!

Extreme heat, rain, and unpredictable weather CAN and DOES happen. Having a venue with a backup weather plan and space to accommodate is a must. is one of those places where plan B, C or even D can happen.
