Portrait Galleries Photographed by Michelle Sadée, St. Albert's Premier Photographer

Every season of family life carries its own kind of beauty — the anticipation of motherhood, the quiet first days with a newborn, the connection between parents and children, and the moments in between that often pass too quickly.

My approach to portrait photography is centered on creating imagery that feels natural, refined, and deeply personal. In a calm studio setting with soft light and thoughtful direction, each session is designed to feel relaxed and effortless while focusing on genuine connection and emotion.

This gallery is a collection of those moments — honest expressions, subtle details, and the stories that unfold naturally when people feel comfortable being themselves. The goal is never overly posed or complicated imagery, but photographs that feel clean, modern, and full of meaning.

Michelle Sadee Photography offers studio portrait sessions in St. Albert for maternity, newborn, and family photography with a timeless and understated approach.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had both my maternity and newborn photos done by Michelle. She was so lovely to work with and both shoots turned out so well. She has great attention to detail and her photos speak for themselves. So glad she was able to capture these special moments for me.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Michelle is a true artist. A master at her craft. Her work is so beautiful and carefully curated with no detail left unfinished. In addition, she’s the kindest person with the MOST patience. I appreciate how professional she is and never makes me feel like a burden (even if I am, lol) The photos she’s given us of our sweet family are invaluable.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Michelle Sadee has a very professional, friendly and patient approach when taking newborn photos. Our baby immediately warmed up to Michelle during the shoot, even during fussy fits by our baby. Michelle provides a unique take on newborn photos that have left us with incredible photos that we will forever cherish. Thank you. Will always recommend. Update 2023-12-30 We’ve had the pleasure of working with Michelle Sadée Photography for our daughters’ newborn photos and our family’s Christmas mini sessions for the last two years. Each session with Michelle has been an extraordinary experience. Her talent in newborn photography is exceptional, beautifully capturing the delicate and precious moments of our daughters’ early days. During the Christmas minis, she skillfully brings out the joy and warmth of our family, creating lasting memories. Michelle’s work is consistently breathtaking and awe-inspiring. We are truly grateful for the moments she has preserved for us and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who excels in capturing the essence of family and the fleeting beauty of newborns.

Her studio is absolutely stunning and her work is incredible!! It was so hard to choose between all the photos because they are always all so beautiful even before any editing. Looking forward to having her continue to capture our family memories :) Thank you Michelle for being amazing at what you do!

We came back 3 years later with our second child and Michelle was still fantastic with new and updated props and sets. You can't do better for your newborn!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Michelle is AMAZING! I am not the biggest fan of having my photo taken. I always feel awkward and unsure of how to even hold my self. Michelle coaches you on how to stand and makes you just feel so beautiful 💕 what a wonderful experience. I have had my maturity photos done ( and back to me so fast ! ) and I'm already booked in for my babies photos!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the most amazing experience getting our newborn photos done with Michelle. It was the first time we had left the house with our newborn and we were nervous and uneasy about how baby would do. Michelle made us feel comfortable from the start and was incredible with our baby. She is the baby whisperer! She was so gentle and knew exactly what to do to keep baby from getting fussy and keep her comfortable. So comfortable, our daughter slept through the whole 4hr shoot! Michelle is not only professional, but warm and nurturing. Any time we communicated afterwards through text or email, Michelle answered all our questions and gave us exactly what we were hoping for. All of our photos are to die for! Michelle’s studio is beautiful and she has so many incredible props and outfits to choose from. Her style is beautiful and timeless and the quality is high end. You will not be disappointed! We will for sure be back to get more photos done in the future.
