My Compass is My Camera

Capturing our Natural World of Nightscapes, Landscapes and Nature Through Photography

Hello !

Meet Michelle. Bend Oregon photographer

What do you get when a 12-year-old is gifted a Minolta SLR camera?

If you guessed a lifelong obsession, you win!

Have you ever seen a sunset so beautiful that it takes your breath away or looked up at the night sky with thousands of twinkling stars above, leaving you momentarily speechless?

Those and more are what I capture in our beautiful landscape of Central Oregon and beyond so that you can experience those awe inspiring moments in your home any time you want.

I’m Michelle Adams. Bend Oregon based photographer, adventure seeker, educator, wilderness and travel enthusiast.

Testimonials

5/5
“Michelle was so great to work with. She went above anyones expectations to get it delivered to a birthday party. We really appreciate her. Our Smith Rock photo on metal is beautiful. We look forward to buying more pieces of art from her..”

“Michelle was very helpful and supportive to our small startup business by donating some of the images from her photo shoot with AdvenChair. I was particularly impressed with how hard she worked to get some great angles on the trail. She also went out of her way to deliver a print so that I could give it as a gift. I highly recommend Michelle and look forward to her help in the future..”

"When you are a violinist and a speaker, it's very difficult to get high quality professional pictures because you're constantly in action. Not only were the pictures phenomenal, but during the photo shoot I hardly noticed Michelle was even there! This is key for capturing people in their most natural and authentic ways"
Diane Allen (Speaker)
