I was so grateful to find Michael Pangilinan. I can not recommend him enough. His quality of work and style of photography was exactly what I was looking for, and to top it off, he is also a great guy to work with. Michael's photography captures those special moments and makes you feel like you are there. His attention to lighting and framing display his skill and create an artistic feel. These are not pictures just anyone can take, and will take us back to that day for the rest of out lives.

He is so easy to work with. From the first time we spoke on the phone, to our coffee meet, to the wedding and after, my husband and I have been nothing but impressed. He worked with out budget and timeline. Michael put everyone at ease and got along great with my entire wedding party. Everyone loved him! He handled some of the stressful points of the day with professionalism. My husband did not meet Michael until the wedding day. He is not one to be impressed with photography ("It's just a picture"), and was not excited about having pictures taken. I think he surprised himself more than he did me at how much he enjoyed having the pictures taken and how happy he was with the results. Now he even wants to do have an anniversary shoot!

You are missing out if you don't at least give yourself a chance to look at his work! Even my sister has recommended him over her photographer (shhh!)

We had such a fantastic experience. We love our pictures from our wedding day and couldn't be happier with the whole experience. Mike was always easy to reach and very professional. We literally have nothing but great things to say. Our day was perfect, and this was a huge piece of making it that way. If you're looking for a photographer, you won't be disappointed!

Well I am the mother of the bride and I really don't even know where to start. Michael was absolutely a pleasure to work with from day one. He put my mind at ease from our first meeting. My daughter Brittney had a vision of the style of pictures she wanted and he listened to what she had to say and totally did everything she wanted. She is not one to like the traditional posing and he was totally ok with that and just did his thing and made everything seem so simple and natural. He came to my home and his creativity was just unbelievable. He took shots that I would of never thought of. Through mirrors and sliding glass doors and even included my dog Brody. He captured so many special memories of that day with all of our family and friends but yet you didn't even know that him and his assistant Samantha were even around half the time.
I own a party rental store and plan weddings all the time for people. I would refer Michael without any hesitation. He was by far one of the most professional, creative, nicest, people I have encountered in my career. Thank you Michael for a wonderful day of special memories.

Where do I begin? If I had the ability to rate our experience with Michael higher, I would. Before the ceremony, I, the groom, enjoyed Samantha's (assistant photographer) company at my parents home as me and my friends prepared for the wedding. Michael was busy capturing the queen at her parents home. My parents have a very tiny one floor house and not once did I feel like Samantha was taking up space. She captured some epic shots and the best part was that they were natural, un-staged, genuine photographs. Those are where the best memories happen and I'm so lucky that those moments were captured by such a talented individual.

Due to other commitments, I didn't have the opportunity to meet Michael prior to my wedding day, but it didn't matter, he made us feel so comfortable and was very personable and so great to work with. As we're getting pictures taken, we just kept repeating to ourselves, "these pictures are going to be amazing." He picked two great locations for us to shoot at, showing that he really put in the effort before our wedding to find spots that fit the style we were looking for. My brother was a handful that day, he's hilarious, but he was pretty obnoxious and during some bridal party shots, he was out of control, but Michael went with it. He understood the excitement of the day. He laughed with us and shared in so many of our great memories. Throughout the wedding, Michael and Samantha were ninjas! They were everywhere, but no one knew it! Everything was so organic. The pictures were, well, I don't have the skill to describe them any other way than amazing.

I can go on and on, but in the best interest of readers, I'll sum it up. Michael's work speaks for itself, but it doesn't do justice to the experience working with him He truly cared about us and we felt it throughout the day. If you want that same feeling with your photographer, use Michael.

When our planned photographer didn't work out, we were scrambling to find a replacement within 4 weeks before our wedding. I stumbled upon Michael's work through mutual friends on Facebook and decided to give him a call, hoping he'd be available. Not only was he willing to shoot our wedding, but he also worked with our budget and schedules to reshoot our engagement pictures before our wedding.

Michael is a super nice guy, really laid back, and definitely wants to give you the best pictures for your wedding. He and his team worked hard to give us a TON of great pictures to remember our day by. We couldn't be happier.
