What Drives Us
Her passion for helping children and young adults feel confident and look their best inspired the vision behind Luxpixia.
She saw a gap in the market for a different kind of school photography experience — one that feels modern, creative, organized, and genuinely exciting.
Luxpixia was founded and imagined by Michelle Gritters, a photographer with nearly 30 years of experience in the photography industry and owner of Michelle Gritters Luxe Studio — a luxury portrait brand known for its nearly perfect 5-star rating and exceptional customer service. For more than 20 years, Michelle has operated a high-volume photography studio with multiple photographers, editors, and staff members serving families, schools, sports organizations, and communities. Along the way, she has received multiple awards through the Professional Photographers of Iowa and earned a Top 4 placement in the International Photographic Competition through Professional Photographers of America for her portrait work and artistic excellence.
Our Story
Too often, school photography feels outdated, rushed, and impersonal.
Luxpixia was created to change that.
With the latest technology in cameras, lighting, software, and workflow systems, our mission is to bring something fresh, bold, modern, and genuinely amazing to school photography.
We believe school portraits should feel polished, fun, professional, and memorable — not boring.
