First, I have to say that Mike takes beautiful pictures. Due to his ability, as well as past reviews I've read, I chose him above all other professional photographers in my area. He captured some beautiful moments for my daughter's wedding in May. So, why do I give him a 2-star review? There are two reasons. First of all, my daughter and her husband could not even enjoy their own reception. He hounded them and the wedding party throughout the whole event for pictures. It seemed he only cared about capturing the moment, but the moments were so forced that it wasn't actually "capturing" the moments that should have been natural and special... ones that my daughter and her husband should have been able to enjoy. Instead, they will remember their reception as hurried and tiring. Secondly, Mike was extremely unprofessional. When I ordered his services, he told me I would have pictures back within 2 weeks. After the wedding, I asked him how long I would have to wait for pictures, and he told me 4-5 weeks! I was a little disturbed by this, but I understood as his services were in demand. After 5 weeks, I contacted him to ask about my pictures, and he told me it would be another 2-3 weeks. I told him that I couldn't wait that long... that I needed the pictures back as he promised as I wanted to do something special for my daughter and her husband, grandparents, and other special guests... that it would be an after thought waiting that long. But, he kept beating around the bush and then started flirting with me. It seemed he was holding my pictures until I would respond favorably to him. Then all of a sudden, he disabled all his social media (Facebook, Instagram, etc). I was so afraid I wasn't going to receive my pictures, so I contacted his wife. I told her about his flirting. Thankfully, she was able to straighten out the situation. We worked it out to where he'd deliver the pictures to my husband... which is when my husband had a stern talk with him. Unfortunately, Mike was still playing games. When I viewed the pictures, they were pixalated and had his watermark on them. I texted him and asked for them to be fixed and re-delivered to my husband. He did remove the watermark, but several of the pictures (especially indoor pictures) were pixalated. He said it was due to the lighting. I was not happy, and I feel he did this on purpose because he didn't get what he wanted. Additionally, I was not able to do my special project I wanted to for grandparents and special guests as too much time had lapsed at this point. On top of all that, his wife asked me for all email copies of Mike flirting. I obliged and gave them to her. I felt really bad for her as she said that he had cheated on her in the recent past. Additionally, we both learned that he was texting and calling my wedding director and sending her vulgar and provocative messages. This is definitely something I shouldn't have had to deal with. It ruined the last images of my daughter's wedding. In the end, all Mike was concerned about was getting a great online review from me. I sat on it for a while because I wanted to pray about the situation and not do something hastily. It's been almost 4 months, and unfortunately, I feel that people should know the truth. Hopefully, he has changed. But, according to Mike's wife (which you can see her review from 5 months ago here), this is not the first time he has approached women clients in a non-professional manner. I feel that people should know the truth as it's obvious that Mike has a problem, and I'd hate for any young woman to get caught up in a situation she doesn't want. I will say that Mike did apologize to my husband and me. Was he sincere? I'm not sure as I don't know him personally.
