Working with Michael was amazing! I don't have a single negative comment! His was work was perfect, he delivered the edited photos quickly and it was so easy working with him. He shot our engagement party at a cafe and captured some great still shots of decor and some candid shots of us and our guests. I would definitely recommend him to anyone and would love to work with him again!

Mike was THE BEST. I found him last minute on Thumbtack but he was super responsive, punctual and the work product was excellent. He took direction well and the photos speak for themselves. Hire him!

Michael was accommodating and agreed to cover my wedding despite the short notice and the budget limitations. My husband and I do not like pictures that look contrived or staged so I am quite pleased that the pictures he's taken were able to fully capture the intimate, low-key wedding that I've always wanted. I have no qualms recommending him to friends and family! Thanks Michael!
