I’m reaching out on behalf of our close friend Michelle, someone who has always been the first to lend a hand, offer support, and give back to her community without hesitation.

Now, she needs our help.

Michelle is going through an incredibly difficult time. In 2024, she lost her full time job in addition to being faced with unexpected medical expenses. 2025 came with even more financial hardships including continuing medical bills, unexpected vet expenses for Oakley, storm damage to her home and necessary garage bills with her only vehicle. Due to all these hardships she is having a hard time getting back on her feet.

Despite everything, Michelle remains the same girl we know, the kind, loving, and generous soul we all admire and love. She's the type of person who shows up for others — and now it’s our turn to show up for her. We are hoping to raise money that will go directly toward easing her financial burden and helping her regain stability during this challenging chapter.

If you can, please consider donating or booking a photography session (July 13th is a donation session). If you can’t contribute financially, please send some good vibes and prayers her way.

It truly takes a village — and I know with your help, we can lift Michelle up the way she’s lifted so many others.
