About

Michael Murphree is the photographic talent behind Litetrap Weddings. He has 20 years of experience as a commercial and celebrity photographer, starting his career as apprentice to world-famous photographer Annie Leibovitz. He has travelled the world photographing iconic names and faces including Angelina Jolie and Will Farrell.

Litetrap Weddings was born from our experiences as editorial storytellers, traveling the world, documenting people for major magazines, advertising agencies and entertainment companies. It became clear that our fulfillment came from the relationships with our subjects and the chance to capture real, honest and intimate moments- all of the qualities of a really good wedding.

Your wedding is one of the most important moments of your story. While you are busy enjoying your event, we will authentically capture all of the moments as they unfold—the surprises, the details, the awe and elation—to create a collection of images that encapsulates your day for generations to come.

Planning: With everything going on in the madness of wedding planning, Michael was an incredible asset. He was organized, responsive, and provided valuable insights/perspectives. We felt comfortable with him immediately and knew we were in good hands.

Day of: Because he took the time to get to know us and understanding what we were wanted, he fit right into the day. We so enjoyed having him there.

Pictures: Beautiful, wonderful, amazing. They encapsulated the day perfectly.

Michael is such an amazing, creative photographer! He included every special moment from my son's Bar Mitzvah and from the reception. We will cherish these pictures and relive our special day because of Michael's professionalism. Also, the green screen photo booth was a huge hit at the reception! Everyone had so much fun having their pictures taken with the creative backgrounds! It's fun for every age!

My family has been fortunate enough to have Michael as our photographer twice! He has done both family and newborn sessions for us, and I cannot praise him enough for his patience, professionalism, and talent.
For our family portrait session, Michael went out of his way to scout out the perfect outdoor setting, making every effort to accommodate my preferences, and found a lovely location near our home (I could not travel far at that time, as I was near my due date with my second baby). When our toddler had several melt-downs during the session, Michael took it all in stride and was so sweet and helpful, even finding ways to lighten her mood so we could capture some especially precious images after she was calm.
For our newborn session later on, Michael came to our home and was so thoughtful and patient, as I was tending to an active toddler and a somewhat fussy baby. He kindly waited as I nursed the baby many times during the shoot, and his unflagging cheerfulness and wealth of funny stories kept everyone at ease (a monumental task when visiting the home of a newborn and their exhausted parents) the whole morning.
Besides being prompt, courteous, and kind, Michael is an immensely gifted photographer with a keen eye for capturing priceless moments in time. There are countless shots from both sessions that are not only technically gorgeous, they just take my breath away, they are so beautiful, so moving. If you are lucky enough to have Michael at your photo session, whatever event it may be for, know that he is worth his weight in gold, both as a wonderful person and as an extraordinary photographer. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
