About

Hello! I am Michelle, and for the past 13 years I have had the privilege of capturing countless magical moments of the happiest days of people's lives.

My style is playful, romantic and genuine. I love to capture the joy and love that radiate from my couples on their wedding day, and my goal is to make you feel comfortable and natural in front of my camera. Whether its a sweet kiss in front of a castle, or a candid moment on a carousel, I'm always on the lookout for those special candid moments that tell the story of your love.

I believe that your wedding day should be stress-free and filled with laughter, and I do my best to contribute to that atmosphere. From the first consultation to the final delivery, I strive to make the process as smooth and enjoyable as possible. I am always open to your ideas and suggestions, and I am happy to offer guidance and support whenever you need it.

While my love for Disney weddings is evident, I am always excited to travel and photograph weddings in new locations. Whether its a beachside ceremony or a mountain-top celebration, I am ready to create stunning images for you that will last a lifetime. I have teams in Southern California, Savannah & North Georgia, Central Florida, and Northern Colorado, and we travel world wide.

In addition to photography, we also offer videography services to create a beautiful, cohesive visual story of your wedding day.

Let's make some magic together!!

Fantastic!

We requested Michelle as our photographer and one of her team as our videographer based on their website and reviews on Disney Wedding Facebook groups and they were both AMAZING!!!! They were responsive during the lead up to the wedding and on the day of, they arrived early to meet us and were incredibly patient and kind while posing us and our wedding party. Everyone at the wedding had great things to say about them and we really enjoyed their company!!! When I get my photos back, I will upload a few, but the ones we saw looked incredible! For reference, we got married at Disney World in Florida.

Most amazing wedding photos!!

My brother and sister in law recommended Michelle to us for our wedding. Our wedding was suppose to take place April 2020 but due to covid we had to reschedule. Michelle was amazing to work with. She was so flexible and accommodating and made a very stressful situation a little less stressful. When wedding day finally arrived she was early. We really didn’t have any ideas on poses or where to take photos. We trusted her expertise and she didn’t let us down. All our photos were gorgeous. She also captured so many amazing candids of everyone dancing, mingling and laughing. We will definitely be using Michelle again!!

Michelle is awesome! We chose her not only for our Engagement Pics, but for our wedding too. I could not be happier. She went above and beyond to provide us exactly what we wanted and so much more. When it comes to photography, you really need to have trust in your vendor to make sure they get the perfect shot, Michelle did a great job! We are super happy with all the amazing work she put in to our wedding. From the first look, to the reception, Michelle was totally spot on. I could not think of anyone better to capture our special moment, thanks Michelle!

We were recommended Michelle through a friend who had recently gotten married. Someone in her family had used Michelle and she told us the biggest regret from her wedding was not hiring Michelle Lacson herself.

From initial correspondence to getting our final wedding photos back Michelle was always professional, gracious and quick with communication.

Our wedding was a bit crazy, due to our massive wedding party (22 total) and guest total (250) yet Michelle and her 2nd photographer handled it with ease. She kept us to our timeline and made sure every photo on our wish list was taken before they left for the night. My only regret was not hiring her for a longer amount of time!

I would absolutely recommend Michelle to a friend (and already have). The only thing I would tell other brides is that her timeline of getting photos back to you is spot on... expect around 8 weeks.

Look forward to using her in the future!

We just got our engagement photos back and I absolutely love them. Michelle was patient and took time with us even with my fiance's crazy photo ideas. She is fantastic at what she does! Thank you Michelle for everything. If you have the chance to book with her do it right away you will not be disappointed.

What a gem! Michelle is such a phenomenal photographer! She even made me look beautiful! She took such beautiful, artistic shots of our wedding and reception! Super easy to work with! She is such a lovely person! When I first got to see my pictures, I was completely speechless. My husband and I both cried like babies because of how beautiful these pictures were! The hardest part I have now to do is choose which photos are my favorites and which to print off because they all are my favorites and I want to show them all off! Michelle pulls out all the stops to make sure your day is captured in the most memorable way possible! She has such passion for making your day perfect! The pictures we have are so bright and vivid. The overall quality more than I can say! Many pics look like they should be published! We were so blessed to have her as part of our wedding day! Now we can look back on our day and remember every part of this amazing day! Many candid shots of the dance floor made me cry as I could see all the smiles and the wonderful time everyone had! No wonder people are still talking about what a great time they had! Thank you Michelle for doing such an amazing job! No way could we have asked for anyone better!

From one bride to another, or anyone looking for a photographer to give them the pictures of their dreams, stop looking and book Michelle! Booking Michelle was easy and with her beautiful portfolio her pricing is amazingly affordable! We did our engagement shoot at the Santa Monica Pier with Michelle herself and it was so much fun! She made us feel so relaxed and confident. She planned out the perfect timing for all of the pictures we wanted in daylight, sunset, and the night time. She knows how to work your good side, and is open minded to let you do what you want. When we got our engagement pictures back they were beyond our expectations and we knew we had the best photographer for our special day. Michelle is a great communicator coming up to and on your event. Michelle and her assistant photographer shot our wedding, which was on a Yacht in Newport Harbor, definitely a venue for an experienced photographer. They showed up on time, dressed professionally, and with great attitudes. They put everyone at ease and flowed well with my other vendors and day of coordinator. They also were really good at coordinating the family pictures after the ceremony. I felt as if they were friends who cared about my special day not just professional photographers. We got our pictures back around 8-10 weeks after our wedding on a cute USB in the mail. We didn’t feel like we had to wait long for them at all especially during a busy season and the great quality of the pictures. We cried happy tears looking at our pictures, they were fairytale, dream come true wedding pictures that we will cherish forever and ever! Did I mention she gives you all of your pictures? No nonsense of here’s 20 and buy the rest kind of deal. We will definitely be using her in the future for other events and recommending her to anyone who needs pictures! Michelle is one of a kind and I believe that her style is so great because she actually loves what she does.

Michelle is the absolute BEST! She has examples on her website and brings you albums of her work. Very honest prices, amazing quality photos and the packages she offers beat any wedding photographer I've come across. She went out of her way to get to know me and my husband to create the perfect engagement and wedding photos. She always came to me for meetings and was very flexible on times, meeting places and locations for pictures. She knew my good and bad side and showed me pictures for approval before moving on to another scenery. Michelle works well with others, and had no problem collaborating with my videographer and DJ. She made sure we were both so happy and she is such a nice and comfortable person to be around. I plan to recommend her to everybody I know in need of a photographer. I can't say enough nice things about Michelle.

I had such a bad experience searching for a photographer prior to finding Michelle... None of their work was that I envisioned. Also, I felt like they were priced extremely high. I was told about Michelle & checked her website out. I was so relieved by her work. I booked my consultation with her an she was so kind & sweet! She even got a drink for me that said, "bride to be". Those are the details that make a bride feel special. So sweet on her part. Anyway, I felt she was honest and super professional about her prices & work. She showed some of her wedding albums an I just fell in love. Her style of photography is superb. I felt like all my friends & family looked like celebrities! I was so worried (for her) because my husband is the hardest when it comes to taking photos. He's not a smiley person & certainly doesn't like having pictures taken. She somehow got the man to crack lol I know it wasn't easy. Bless her for that haha!
Than angles an visions of what she see's & how she edits is amazing! I keep re-living the day all over again, but better. The way she captured the details made me feel like I was flipping through a wedding magazine or on Pinterest.

First off, let me say that Michelle Lacson at Michelle Lacson Photography is such a fabulous photographer, and an even more fabulous person! My husband and I got married at Disneyland last month, and when we called Michelle, she was more than willing to do our Engagement photos right away, and we went all over Disney's California Adventures Park taking pictures. She knew just the right spots to get the most adorable pictures, and they not only looked amazing, but she delivered them touched up, and perfect in a timely fashion. Michelle went above and beyond the call of duty for our wedding. She brought several shooters with her for the day of, and stayed until she captured every precious moment of our most special day. She and her team are so experienced. They knew exactly what they were doing. They kept my husband and I moving at a great pace, and made sure that no matter where we were throughout the ceremony and reception, we got pictures of everything, from our gazebo, to our horse and carriage to our first dance, to the cake cutting, to just plain having fun on the dance floor or chatting with friends and family throughout the evening. She even made us our Guest book, and because it was a Disney Wedding, she filled it with pictures of us, and sprinkled quotes from "Peter Pan" throughout the book. The next day we had a private photo shoot inside the Disneyland park, and she was there with us bright and early at 4 am, ready to take some gorgeous pictures...and with a smile! What commitment! Michelle is so quick to respond, and always answered any questions in a timely fashion when I needed her. The friendship we built with Michelle and her team is priceless, and we feel so lucky and blessed to call her our photographer for life! :) We will be calling Michelle again for our next event, no doubt about it. THANK YOU MICHELLE LACSON PHOTOGRAPAHY! We will treasure our amazing pictures forever.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Michelle is wonderful to work with! Very talented, professional and has a keen eye for details to capture every little things you had planned for your event. Loved working with her!

Michelle is such a fun photographer to work with. I have shot with Michelle many times at events (mostly weddings) and found myself loving every minute of it. She loves trying new things and has mastered the art of sun flare. Her images are vintage-esque while being soft and romantic at the same time. Her editing style makes images that i can only describe as warm and cuddly. Her clients absolutely adore her and I can whole heartedly recommended her for anyone looking for a lifestyle photographer that can capture that vintage look.
