Wedding Photographer in Mountain Home, Northwest Arkansas & Southwest Missouri
Your wedding day is one of the biggest days of your life — full of laughter, a few happy tears, and a thousand little moments you'll want to hold onto forever. I'd love to be there to capture all of it. I'm Michele McCoy, a Mountain Home–based wedding photographer, and I photograph weddings all across Northwest Arkansas and Southwest Missouri — Bentonville, Fayetteville, Eureka Springs, Springfield, Branson, and everywhere in between. My style is true-to-color and timeless — a blend of natural, candid moments and beautiful posed shots, woven into a story that brings you right back to this day for years to come. Think of me as a friend with a camera, and I'd be honored to capture yours.

What Every Collection Includes
Every local wedding collection comes with everything you need to relax and enjoy your day:
- A complimentary engagement session
- Professional editing of every photo
- A private online gallery to view, share, and download
- The option of a second photographer and an LED photo booth (included in the larger collections)
- Flexible payments — reserve your date with $500, then pay the rest at your own pace up to 30 days before your wedding
Getting married farther out? We'll build a custom collection together on your consultation call — tailored to your day, your venue, and the coverage you want.
The Investment
My local wedding collections start at $1,800 for six hours of coverage and go up to $3,500 for a full twelve-hour day with a second photographer and the LED photo booth — each with a complimentary engagement session and a full gallery of professionally edited photos. See all the details and reserve your local date online right on my booking page. For a wedding farther out or something more custom, let's design the perfect collection together on a consultation call.
How it Works
- Book or connect. Local couples can reserve a date online in minutes. If you're farther out or want to talk first, schedule a free consultation and we'll design the perfect plan together.
- Plan your day together. I'll send a simple questionnaire, and we'll have a pre-wedding consultation call to walk through your timeline and must-have moments.
- Your wedding day. I capture everything — candid and posed — in a relaxed, natural way. For local collections, your complimentary engagement session happens before the big day.
- Your gallery arrives. Your professionally edited photos land in a private online gallery, typically within 6–8 weeks, ready to share, download, and print.
Add a Little Fun — The LED Photo Booth
Want your reception to be a blast? My two larger collections include an LED photo booth — the kind guests line up for all night. It's a fun way to send everyone home with a keepsake, and it's one less vendor for you to book and pay for. You'll find it built right into The Signature and The Full Story.

The two larger collections also include a second photographer and an LED photo booth for your reception.
Do you include an engagement session?
Yes — every local wedding collection includes a complimentary engagement session, scheduled at a time and place that work for you before the big day. It's a relaxed way to get comfortable in front of the camera, and the photos are perfect for save-the-dates. For weddings farther out, we'll go over the details together on your consultation call.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes! You reserve your date with a $500 deposit, then pay the balance at your own pace — monthly or whenever works — right up until 30 days before your wedding. I'll send friendly reminders along the way, so you can spread it out however feels comfortable.
Do you have a second photographer?
Yes — my two larger collections, The Signature and The Full Story, include a second photographer, which is a great fit for bigger weddings and full-day coverage. Either way, I personally photograph your wedding from start to finish.
What is your photography style?
My style is true-to-color and timeless — a natural blend of candid, in-the-moment shots and beautiful posed portraits, woven into a story that brings you right back to your day. Think of me as a friend with a camera, there to capture the laughter, the happy tears, and everything in between.
Will we get all the images, and can we print them?
Yes — you'll receive a full gallery of every professionally edited photo in a private online gallery, ready to view, share, and download in high resolution. You can order prints, albums, and canvases right from your gallery. (Unedited RAW files aren't included.)
When will we get our wedding photos?
Your wedding gallery is typically ready within 6–8 weeks, delivered in a private online gallery you can share and download. I love sending a few sneak peeks soon after your day, too, so you have something to share right away.
What areas do you serve, and do you travel?
I'm based in Mountain Home and photograph weddings across the Twin Lakes area, North Central and Northwest Arkansas, and Southwest Missouri — including Eureka Springs, Bella Vista, Bentonville, Fayetteville, Springfield, and Branson. For local weddings within about an hour of Mountain Home, travel is included, and I love destination weddings too.
How far in advance should we book?
The sooner the better — popular dates book up fast, and you can reserve up to two years out. If your date is available, booking early locks it in with just a $500 deposit.
What if you get sick or can't make it?
Your day is protected. In the rare case I can't photograph your wedding due to illness or an emergency, I'll arrange a qualified replacement photographer — and if one can't be secured, you'll receive a full refund. Your images are also backed up and delivered through a secure online gallery.
