Hi, I’m Michelle.
A mom, a USMC veteran, military wife, and a visual storyteller drawn to the quiet, fleeting moments that often go unnoticed.

I started Ever Wander Photography with a deep love for nature and the in-between—the wind in your kid’s hair, the half-smile before a laugh, the way the desert light wraps around a memory.

After years of working in research and science, photography gave me space to slow down and reconnect with the things that matter most: family, place, and presence.

I’m based in Yucca Valley and serve families, couples, and dreamers throughout the high desert and beyond. Whether it’s a homecoming, a first dance, or a quiet morning under the pines, I’m here to help you remember how it felt—not just how it looked.

Let’s tell your story, honestly and gently.
