About Me



Trained portrait photographer turned wedding photographer I have experience in any type of photography you could possibly need. I have won multiple Scholastic Arts awards for my photography as well as being chosen to be in numerous art shows. When I was little my mother would have to hide the film on the top shelf so I wouldn't use it all. I have always had a passion for taking great pictures and used to make my little brothers pose for me when we were little. I am very detail oriented in everything I do and it really shows in my photography. It’s my goal to eventually work for a sports magazine or National Geographic, but I don’t think I will ever stop doing portraits and weddings no matter where my photography career takes me.

I love being a Photographer in Pittsburgh because there are so many beautiful and historic places to take pictures. I also love taking rustic pictures in Washington, PA where I spent most of my school years. I love being outside and camping, or golfing (regular and mini, we take our mini golf pretty seriously!) and spending time with my family. I recently got married to a wonderful man I met at the Washington Crown Centre at a Harry Potter book release party in 2005. (Brownie points if you know which book!) I am very outgoing and sometimes talk too much, especially when I am talking about something I am passionate about. Let's meet up at your favorite coffee place to discuss your portrait needs, I'm sure you'll want to keep me around for a while!

I am taking a picture everyday this year as one of my New Year's Resolutions. Visit my blog for my 366 here at J Mik 366. This will be a very personal blog where you can get to know the everyday me!
