I hired 2 photographers for my wedding and I loved every minute of them being there. They had creative ideas for pictures and went along with our crazy and playful family and friends. They helped capture magic for my big day! As a heavier woman and person with tattoos, I want someone who would appreciate what I was working with and new how to photograph it well. I'm confident that my pictures will make me ball my eyes out when I see them. They made us feel confident and had us smiling the whole time! I couldn't thank them enough!!

Mike and Inna were AMAZING!! Very attentive to what we wanted.
Mike understood exactly what we wanted and created the perfect opportunities for photo shoots during our wedding. We could not be happier! AND - the meeting to view the spreads for our book was AWESOME!! There were some special details we didn't expect and it made for an incredible viewing experience :)

I wish I could rate more than 5 stars. Mike is who you want to photograph your wedding and boudoir shoot! He's done both for my wife and I. The boudoir shoot was scary for both of us in the beginning. Mike made us both feel so comfortable, we had SO much fun, and the experience brought my wife and I closer together. Our wedding pictures are INCREDIBLE!! Neither of us cried the day of our wedding, but when we saw our slideshow of our wedding day that Mike had put together-- we both cried like babies! Every single person that I show our wedding pictures to say how amazing they are and how they feel like they were at the wedding too. Mike captured our day from beginning to end - the emotions, the love, the dancing, the fun... he captured people's fun and loving spirits in every single picture. I honestly can't thank you enough, Mike, for all of our beautiful pictures from both shoots... I'm sure they're not our last shoots with you either! Highly, highly recommend Mike for your photographer! ☆☆☆

Just picked up our photos today - including our incredible 5 foot tall metal print! We are OVER THE MOON! Mike was amazing, our shots are incredible, he was a pleasure to work with! Our photos feel so unique and so us. I wish we could take pictures with him every day!! Thank you Mike!!

Mike is truly the best. During the planning process he held phone meetings with us to ensure we got all of the photos we wanted, and so that he could truly capture the moment as opposed to posed photos. As soon as I arrived at the venue he stepped out and introduced himself and got started. He was so professional, quick, and efficient. Unfortunately it was extremely windy on our wedding day, but he was able to work with it and make sure our photos were fantastic. You can tell he is so passionate about what he does based off his interactions with us throughout the evening. He checked in before he left to make sure there weren't any photos that we were missing and to see if there was anything else we wanted. I cannot wait to see our photos because I know they are going to be nothing short of amazing.

I first saw Mike Allebach when he was photographing my cousin's wedding. I enjoyed his style - he quickly analyzed everything before taking photos. When I saw her wedding photos, I knew I wanted him as my photographer! He offered me an in-studio or phone meeting. It was great to use his website to pick a time that was convenient for me. He called me and we spoke on the phone for about 30 minutes. He was easy to talk to, and he helped me decide if I should wear my glasses or not during the wedding. After I signed the contract, I later filled out a sheet indicating the times, details, wedding party, and specific photos I wanted. Two weeks before the wedding, we had another phone meeting to make sure everything was still correct! The day of the wedding was crazy, but Mike helped ease my nervousness. He did help guide my photos and the wedding party photos, and he was not bossy. He was very professional and nice to everyone. My family and friends all commented on how great he was and wasn't like any other photographer they saw. I barely noticed him at the ceremony and during the rest of the wedding because he was able to position himself in a good spot! I'm so glad we decided to use Mike Allebach and his assistant. After the wedding, he invited my husband and I to do a photo reveal at his studio. We enjoyed looking at all of the photos, and it was great to see everything come together and see our guests dancing and having a good time! He was quick with giving us a storyboard to choose our album photos! Everything was done quickly and our album is perfect! His website photos show his unique style, and we are so happy we chose him! Even though I was not a tattooed bride (like many of his brides) Mike still gave us beautiful wedding photos! He also offers couple and family photo sessions so we might use him later down the road!

Mike Allebach was the white knight of our wedding! He stepped in at the 11th hour (literally) when our original photographer fell through the night before our wedding. We immediately felt comfortable with Mike and his assistant, even though we didn't have the chance to prep with him the way we would have in a more traditional scenario. It was also incredibly assuring to see them jump into action. Because of the circumstances, we didn't have any time to tell Mike what our must-have shot list was... as it turns out, that didn't matter because they captured all the details we were hoping to get. Mike and his assistant were always (discreetly) with the action at the wedding. Any time something interesting or meaningful was happening, they were there without anyone having to alert them. Many guests remarked how amazing it was that two people seemed to be in ten places at once. When we got our photos, we were impressed by how well they captured the spirit of our wedding day. It has been such a joy to look through our pictures and see moments that we fondly remember and a few that we missed but Mike got! Aside from being great while shooting our wedding, the follow-up communication has been relaxed, professional, and timely. Mike is clearly a top-notch photographer and we consider ourselves lucky that he shot our wedding! We could not be happier with Allebach Photography and recommend them a million times over.

His photos were stunning! We felt so comfortable with him and in turn were able to get amazing shots! He was great to work with, we had a lot of fun with him!

It was a real pleasure to work with Mike and the team at Allebach Photography. From our first meeting, I was grateful for his openness and flexibility, and in person at the event he and his assistant were great. I've been to a lot of weddings where the photographers feel like paparazzi (in a bad way) and are very distracting; not the case here, they felt perfectly absorbed into the event and captured so many fun and fabulous moments. The colors of Mike's photography are especially dazzling. The engagement photos that came with the package were my surprise favorite. I hadn't been planning to have engagement photos, but since they were part of the package we took them, and they are some of my all-time favorite shots. I worked with a lot of vendors for the wedding, and Allebach Photography stood out. Though their tagline is "tattooed brides" and I'm tattoo-free, the philosophy that comes along with that tagline was what drew us to them. Mike brings a spirit of figuring out who you and your partner are and celebrating that. I highly recommend working with them!

Mike Allebach is not only one of the most amazing photographers he is an amazing person. From our initial meeting with Mike he made us fall in love with his creative eye and passion for photography. The difference between Allebach photography and mostly everyone else is that Mike understands his clients and what they want, he sees their vision through his camera. He has an extreme passion for what he does and it is exuded through his photos. The moments he captured from our engagement session to our wedding photos were priceless.
He had our photos to us in a timely manner and was not intrusive on our wedding day.
Allebach photography and Mike Allebach are simply the best and we would highly recommend their service.
