"Michael is an amazing photographer and does a great job of thinking outside the box to provide amazing customer service. I knew when he embraced my list of shots with a smile, he was going to be great on our big day. He blew me away with his attention to small details and reminders to get every shot I told him I wanted an. He was with us for the ENITRE day and was so greatly priced considering he was with us all day. Michael literally came at 8am for girl time and didn't leave until the last toes left the dance floor. I was so impressed by the color of his photos and loved all the candid shots he captured. We have already continued to use Michael's services after the wedding and will continue for years to come. He fits right into our family and captures every shot perfectly."

"Michael was absolutely amazing. He was with us the entire time, from 10:45am at my house to 1:00am at the reception, and all for one very reasonable flat fee. He even rode in the limo bus with us. He was able to get amazing and creative shots at the Rock Hall downtown as well as individuals with the bridal party and several guests as they left. He was attentive but never in the way, and everyone complimented him. I would highly recommend him to anyone!"

"Michael did a wonderful job with our wedding and engagement session. Our pictures went great through the whole day, from coming to the salon that morning to staying throughout the whole reception! He even gave us tips about what to expect that day and how to cut our cake. He is a true professional and I'm so glad there was Thumbtack that helped me find him quickly! Great prices as well! Thank you, Michael!!!"

"What a wonderful person to work with!!!! Very professional and extremely friendly and nice. I haven't gotten pictures yet because I literally just got married but what I saw so far from him is stunning and I know my husband and I are going to love them!!! Thank you so much Michael for photographing our special day for us. :)"

"Michael was amazing at our wedding! He offered his time management skills which helped everything run smoothly and was present at the rehearsal to offer input. He really goes above and beyond for his clients and takes their thoughts and needs into consideration. He did an amazing job not only as the photographer but was also an amazing support system as well. I definitely would recommend him!!!"

"Michael is such an amazing photographer. We were blown away by his services and wish we could give him even more stars. He was with us the whole day, switching between different locations. He is such an easy going guy and was such a pleasure to have around all day. I can't wait to have our pictures back but I know they will be fabulous based on the quality of our engagement shoot. If you are having a wedding don't think twice, hire Michael!"
