Welcome to MpStockPhotos

Rooted imagery for growing brands


Rooted. Real. Ready to use. Brand and stock photography for businesses, makers, and creatives who care about meaning, not marketing trends.

"I’m Michelle, a Wisconsin-based photographer offering two ways to work with me: custom photo sessions for farms and local brands, and a growing library of stock images."

Photography Services for Local Businesses

We specialize in custom photography for small farms, markets, and outdoor brands that value intention, process, and story. Our work is rooted in the slow business mindset—built on relationships, not rushed results. Whether for your website, social media, or signage, we photograph on-location and develop image collections over time—not just in a single session—so your visuals grow as your business does.

(Please note: all new complimentary client sessions are currently full.)

Read the Rooted in Collaboration blog for a behind-the-scenes look at what I’m currently working on.

Unlimited Access to Our Stock Image Library

Every photography client gets unlimited access to my complete royalty-free stock image library at no extra cost. This growing archive offers thousands of professionally curated, nature-based, seasonal, and lifestyle images—ready for use across your social media, website, newsletters, and signage. It’s like having your own personalized image bank, designed to keep your brand visuals fresh and consistent all year round.

Stock Images for Designers and Creative Buyers

For designers, artists, and everyday buyers, we offer a curated collection of high-resolution, royalty-free stock images (3000x2000 or 3000x3000 at 300 DPI). There are no confusing packages or tiers—just straightforward downloads.

Affordable Fine Art Prints

Looking for wall art? Our affordable fine art prints bring warmth, beauty, and spirit to everyday spaces without inflated prices or gatekeeping. Whether you’re decorating a creative studio, gallery wall, or home office, you’ll find something to inspire.

Special Pricing for Non-Profits and Wholesale Buyers

If you’re a non-profit or wholesale buyer, we’re happy to offer special pricing. Please contact us to learn more.

Welcome

I’m so grateful you’re here. This shop is home to my photography—available as downloadable digital images and affordable fine art prints—all created with care from my small, woman-owned business in Southeastern Wisconsin.

My work grew from a love of nature, homesteading, and slow, intentional living. Whether capturing wildflower meadows or quiet forest paths, I aim to create images that feel peaceful, grounded, and real.

Much of my photography happens in my cozy studio overlooking a secret garden and vegetable beds, with my loyal dog Axel nearby. Now, I’m excited to serve local farms, flower growers, food producers, and outdoor brands with custom photography that tells their stories beautifully.

Many of my nature images are also featured in hospitals and healing spaces across Southeastern Wisconsin as part of my Arts in Medicine work.

When you shop here or work with me, you support a real artist who values fair pricing, authentic work, and meaningful connection—not a faceless stock platform.

Thank you for visiting.

Warmly,

Michelle

mpstockphotos Philosophy

Welcome to MpStockPhotos — where stock photography gets personal and real storytelling comes first.

This isn’t your average stock company, and I’m proud of that. MpStockPhotos is a woman-owned small art business born from a love of nature, a passion for storytelling, and a desire to change how photography is valued. It’s not just about pretty pictures — it’s about connection. Connection to the land, to each other, and to the everyday beauty around us.

Every image in my collection is more than a snapshot — it’s part of a larger narrative, grounded in authenticity and waiting to be shared.

I’ve recently expanded my work to offer custom photography for local farms, markets, growers, and nature-based businesses. My goal is to create thoughtful imagery that reflects the heart of what you do — while continuing to offer digital downloads and fine art prints for buyers seeking meaningful visuals for their own projects or spaces.

This shift isn’t just creative — it’s personal. I believe we can honor artistry and ethics. We don’t have to accept a system where photographers are underpaid and undervalued. When you choose to work with me or purchase from this site, you’re saying yes to fair compensation, creative integrity, and a more human-centered approach to business.

Stock photography is real art — and it’s time we treat it that way.

Thanks for being part of something better.

Warmly,

Michelle
