About
John Michael’s Photography specializes in classic and photojournalistic style wedding photography. John is a skilled and professionally trained photographer with more than a decade of experience, but what really sets his work apart is his enthusiasm for photography. “I absolutely love what I do, and that's reflected in my style and how much fun we'll have at your event!”  John will capture the true essence of your special day, by detailing each and every spectacular moment with stunning photography.

I have always loved photographing weddings and special events. I love big and elaborate weddings. I love small and simple weddings. I love modern weddings. I love traditional weddings. And I love every possible variation in between. My passion is photography. I consider my camera an extension of myself. It’s not just how I make my living; it’s how I express my views of the world around me.
 
My career as a visual artist began when I was in High School. First I began with graphic arts in the printing industry, then as an artistic photographer. This became a natural transition for a successful wedding, event and portrait photographer. I use my visual sense to create not only beautiful and timeless photography, but also cutting edge wedding albums.
 
I am a firm believer that your choice of a wedding photographer should have as much to do with exquisite photography as it does with finding someone you feel absolutely at ease with. Someone who can let you be yourself, and then capture the special details and exquisite moments of your wedding story as it unfolds. My focus will be to document each and every moment of your wedding day in a creative, original, and inconspicuous manner.
We enjoy working at the following venues, and recommend their services: The Ritz Carlton Naples Beach Hotel, Hyatt Regency Coconut Point, La Playa, Naples Grande, Edgewater Beach Hotel, Naples Beach Club, The Strand, Inn on Fifth, Marco Beach Ocean Resort, Marco Island Marriott, Casa Ybel Resort, South Seas Plantation, Sanibel Harbor Resort, Tween Waters Inn, to name just a few.
John Michael is also a talented portrait photographer, specializing in astonishing and innovative portraits and outstanding family portraiture.

 I would love to hear all about your plans for your wedding.
