Max doesn't just take great shots, he makes you feel comfortable on your special day. He has pure natural talent with great work ethic. Max creates a vibe that not only gives you phenomenal pictures, but in those moments you don't even realize your taking a picture. You are having the time of your life and he captures it for you and creates a memory of a lifetime. Max gave us memories we will cherish forever. He scouted our area before our wedding to deliver the pictures we wanted, but also suggest ideas we would never thought of. It's not just the talent and knowledge he has, but the little details he pays attention to , takes your pictures to another level.

We hired Maximilian Franz Photography for our annual conference, in the hopes of getting a few nice photos for use in our marketing. Our expectations were fully exceeded! Max was professional, communicative, timely, and thorough. He caught all of our requested shots, plus hundreds of beautiful candid shots as well. He really captured the spirit of the event in each photo! Max was also unobtrusive and not disruptive of the whole event, which made it so easy to have him there. After a great day on Saturday, he turned the photos around by first thing Monday morning, which was way faster than we could have ever imagined! Truly, working with Max was a pleasure from start to finish, and we now have hundreds of gorgeous photos that will help us grow our organization and strengthen our marketing. We could not recommend Max highly enough!

Max is EVERYTHING you could want in a wedding photographer and I cannot recommend him enough! I knew I wanted him to be our wedding photographer when we got engaged because I had worked with him before – including for my best friend’s wedding. In fact, it was so important to me that I cleared the date with him before we booked the date with our venue and I’m so glad that we did! Max really takes the time to get to know you and understand who you are as people and a couple so that he and his team can capture exactly what you want to make sure you have the most beautiful memories of your wedding day. For example, I was stressed out by the thought of creating a “must-have” photo list and he told me that was fine as I wasn’t paying him so that I would have to create a list of pictures for him to take (although if that is what the couple wants, he’s happy to do that too, as he did with my best friend – who also has the MOST gorgeous pictures). Instead, we talked about what, generally, was important to us and Max’s instincts are so incredible and he’s so experienced that he captured the day perfectly – including making sure that we had all the pictures that might typically go on a list as well as the very essence of who we are as a couple. He also scoped out the hotel, venue, and surrounding areas beforehand so that he already knew where we could take beautiful, unique photographs – including grabbing my husband and I for a few minutes during golden hour to take some AMAZING pictures in the fading sunlight. He and his team also didn’t stick out the way some photographers do – they blended as part of the wedding which I think is part of what makes the photos they are able to get so special. Bonus? About a month before our wedding I decided that I wanted a videographer at the wedding to create a short “highlight” video – and he got me an amazing team he worked with before – for THOUSANDS of dollars less than anyone I found. Bottom line: choose Max if you want a stress-free, amazing photographer who will make sure that your photographs are everything you could imagine to capture your special day!
