Michelle Valantine Photography

Michelle and Lacy were absolutely a dream to work with. They seamlessly joined our day and made it a priority to get the shots that were important to me, while also being mindful that taking photographs was not the only thing I wanted to do! Her sweet demeanor and attention to detail really sealed the deal. Leading up to the wedding, Michelle and her mom really took time to get to know us and get a feel for how we wanted our wedding day to be. I am so thankful that we chose Michelle to capture our day! We will forever treasure our incredible wedding photos and are so thankful to Michelle for helping make it happen.

We loved Michelle. She has good taste and style. She was attentive to me and prepared when she arrived. Loved the finished product and enjoyed having her as my photographer

Michelle did an amazing job with our wedding photos! She was very professional and engaged, walking us through the process in a warm and encouraging way. Working with her on our wedding day was a joy and both she and her second shooter were always available when we needed her. The pictures ended up being absolutely beautiful. I would recommend her to anyone!

Michelle did a wonderful job with our wedding! She is the definition of professional. She always did her best to accommodate us, and she brought many good ideas to the table. She has the process down to a science which put us at ease. Most importantly, the pictures turned out great! Highly recommend her to anyone.

Michelle was wonderful! She is professional, has great communication and goes over and above to make sure her clients are happy. Very pleased with our photos. We would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Michelle and her second shooter, Lacy, did an incredible job! Almost every photo looked like it should be the cover of a magazine! I was in awe looking at her pictures. She captured so many small moments and different details I wouldn't have thought of on my own. She helped cater a timeline special to me and was very flexible and understanding. She was a joy to work with, and really helped my day go by smoothly. I didn't have to worry about anything and I clearly didn't need to with her and Lacy taking photos! I would highly recommend her team to anyone!

Michelle is wonderful and there are not enough words to explain how sweet and kind she is, not just professionally but personally she is one of the best people you'll meet. Michelle also works with her Mom, (who is also fantastic) and we had the pleasure of enjoying both of them for our engagement photos and our wedding. Michelle made this entire process for us such a breeze, she knew the timeline and had all these great ideas! I am so grateful that we had Michelle as our photographer and can't wait for our future maternity, baby and family photo sessions with her!!

Michelle did both our engagement and wedding photos. We could not have been happier with her as a photographer. She was flexible, thoughtful, efficient, and her skill as a photographer was incredible. She has the most calming and comforting demeaner and made everything very easy for us. The thing that I am most grateful for was that she caught moments that showed true emotions of whatever situation she captured. And finally, she got us our wedding photos exactly when she said, at our 1-month anniversary, which is something that I find very valuable. I could not recommend her more highly.

She did an amazing job. Michelle was amazing to help us get everyone together. She also was amazing at capturing all of the emotions of the day. Amazing.

Michelle and her mother are absolutely amazing! They took our engagement photos and our photos of our reception as well. They did such an amazing job on both! They are super easy to work with and made the whole experience stress free. I love their work!!

Michelle is no less than amazing in everyway. If you are someone like me and my husband we are incredibly uncomfortable in front of a camera. Michelle made the process easy and dare I say fun! We were laughing and having a great time through out our engagement and our wedding photos. Not only did we love her but our guests noted how engaged and friendly she was! Cannot recommend highly enough.

Michelle and Lacy were amazing! From the planning to the execution, Michelle Valantine was there for it all. She helped my husband and I get a game plan for what pictures we wanted and what was most important about the day. Michelle and her 2nd shooter, Lacy, made sure to capture every special moment and every little happy glance. I am over the moon happy with the pictures and with the overall professionalism of Michelle and her team. From the first meeting to the delivery of our pictures, Michelle and her team have been so great! She is very detail oriented and organized, which was very helpful for me since I am not either of those things. I felt completely comfortable trusting Michelle and her team with our special day and I'm so happy I did! The pictures speak for themselves. If you're having a hard time trying to choose which photographer to use for your special day, definitely trust Michelle Valantine! You won't regret it!!

Michelle did an absolutely fantastic job with us for our wedding. Through multiple postponements due to COVID, she was always extremely flexible and understanding. We ended up having to have a tiny wedding, and the way she shot the images maintained the warmth and excitement of a much larger wedding. She does a great job of catching the candid moments of true expression which were the pictures I loved the most. She was very organized on the wedding day and worked around our wedding plan to make sure she got all the shots in she needed. She is very detailed with helping to make a wedding itinerary with you and caters to your preferences. She basically had a similar effect to a second wedding planner! Could not recommend her enough.

Michelle and her mom are a great team and they truly listen to what the customer wants and they give suggestions for things they think will make your photos more memorable. They don't get offended if your ideas differ from theirs and they truly care that your day goes smoothly and that you are happy with the outcome. They take time to sit down and meet to go over all the details and they take extensive notes on any special or unique items you might want captured. The resulting photos were absolutely amazing and I can't imagine ever using anyone else to capture those special moments!
