We loved Marian and Mike Linett! Not only were they helpful, professional, and knowledgable, but also took the time to make sure allll of our photos came out more than perfect. They helped us not only with our wedding photos but our casual photos and bridal photos also. All of our photos came out beautiful. Mike and Marian go beyond to capture the perfect moments you would not remember without them. We are so happy to have had them both for our photographer and cannot wait for the baby to be born to have another session in my wedding gown. I recommend them to anyone wanting the perfect photos for your wedding.

The Best!!!!

I reached out after our photographer canceled as our wedding neared and from the first time, I spoke with Mike I was sure we were now in amazing hands. Then the pandemic hit but Mike did not miss a beat. We had to make many changes but what did not change was the welcoming and professional nature of Custom Photography they were always quick to respond and willing to adapt to it all. I can't wait until our next photoshoot!! We highly recommend Mike & Marian! Wedding postponed until August 2021.

If you are seeking the "Top of the Line" in customer service, quality of work and total satisfaction then look no more. Mike & Marion Linett of Custom Photography is a class act. You will not find a better, more qualified, award winning, joy of people to work with than these two. One of the many praises I have about them making our special day one we will cherish for life is the fact that they were able to work with our limited budget. Since we booked them a year out, we were able to make payments up to just weeks before the wedding. Which was a major help for us because we paid for our wedding ourselves and were able to do so with no credit card debt or loans. Best of all, we did not have to sacrifice on quality of work. Mike & Marion treated us like royalty and catered to all of our request and needs. Even down to our engagement and wedding dress photo shoot were Marian helped my bride Enriqua with her wedding dress fitting and even put on her shoes! You can't find better customer service than that if you tried. They have 30 plus years in this industry and it shows. Any one of your photos could easily be featured on the coverer of the best wedding magazines in this country. So if you are Blessed enough to book them early enough to do your wedding; you are in the best possible hands you could hope to be in. If the unfortunate chance arrives and they are NOT available to do your wedding on the day you want.-SWITCH YOUR DATE! They are that good.
Hope this was helpful,
Lance and Enriqua McKinney

Custom Photography is one of the best choices you can make for your wedding day photos. Mike and Marian Linett are dedicated to what they do, and have many awards to show for it. They have been in the business for years, they have a very professional studio, and on the wedding day they always know how to bring out the best smiles in the clients they photograph. We cherish our own wedding photos done by Mike & Marian, and would recommend them to all brides.

Mike and Marian Linett are a pleasure to work with and have been the consummate wedding professionals that many vendors have come to admire. They are both enthusiastic about being at every wedding and it's contagious. Usually, I don't get to talk to the brides after they have received their photos, however, I have met with their clients, post wedding and have seen just how excited they are about their pictures and albums. The level of personal attention they give their clients is consistent and the long-lasting connection they make with the bride, groom and their families is a testament to the referral network they continue to build.
