Bio: Michelle Del Guercio

Quote: John Muir - inspiration

Michelle Del Guercio, a sensitive and intuitive medical, lifestyle and portrait photographer, is passionate about shooting all types of people and their environments.

Obsessed with seeking out the truth in a frozen moment, Michelle has been living and breathing photography for the past 15 years.

She is inspired by nature and dedicated to sustainable living, using every opportunity to incorporate these elements into her work.

In happy times and sad, she’s always documenting. (Her son may never forgive her for photographing him in the emergency room.)

Known for her naturalistic style, she seeks out happy, healthy people from all walks of life. Michelle’s portraits always resonate because she creates a relaxed atmosphere that instantly puts her subjects at ease. She believes in a loose and spontaneous approach, always prepared to turn and shoot in the other direction, capturing the unexpected.

Michelle’s annual report for St. Mary's Children's Hospital was recognized as Best in Show by the Healthcare Marketing Report and won first place for Children's Hospitals.

She and her family divide their time between their homes in New York City and the Hudson Valley, where Michelle loves to entertain, using any excuse to bring folks together.
