Outstanding Wedding Photographer!

We are so happy with our experience working with Misha Media on our wedding day! From the moment we met Michele and Andy, their warmth and professionalism instantly put us at ease. Their attention to detail and vision perfectly captured every moment, from candid smiles to deeply emotional scenes.
The photos are breathtaking—far exceeding our expectations. Their skillful use of natural light and thoughtful composition made every image look like a masterpiece.
Despite the typical wedding-day chaos, Michele and Andy managed everything effortlessly, keeping us on track while still being flexible enough to capture those spontaneous, meaningful moments.
These photos are a treasure we’ll cherish forever. We can’t recommend Misha Media enough for anyone wanting their wedding memories beautifully preserved. They truly go above and beyond!

Photography

Michele and Andy were AMAZING to work with for our wedding! Michele and I worked through the wedding timeline on three occasions, she answered all my simple and complex questions and gave appropriate feedback and suggestions. My husband and I do not take many pictures, but both Andy and Michele made the day so easy and comfortable. They were so much fun and the pictures came out exactly how I wanted them and we got them two weeks after our wedding!! I do not have enough great things to say about them: professional, high energy, thorough. Everything you could ask for on your wedding day

Amazing Photo/Video/Photo Booth

The whole team at Misha Media is great to work with. Michele, who is the main photographer, is great to work with and she provides wedding information as well as photo/video tips to make your wedding day go as smoothly as possible. She provides great information and tips when taking photos. Andy was with the groomsmen and was really fun to work with. He is genuine and funny and the experience he helped foster was closer to just “hanging out” than a stranger present to take photos. It was so important for the overall comfort and experience. My husband and I aren’t the best at taking pictures naturally and she and her team make it as easy and smooth as possible. Misha Media did our photography, videography, and photobooth. We would highly recommend using them. They made our wedding day amazing!!!

Amazing experience!

One of my coworkers had her wedding photographed by Michele and Andy, and from the moment I saw the photos, I knew I wanted them as our wedding photographers! From the first phone call, my husband and I felt completely comfortable with Michele. She was so patient and answered all of our questions. As an added bonus, they provided us with a great online tool to help plan out our wedding timeline. On the day of, Michele and Andy were so friendly and professional! We loved that they gave us different ideas on how to pose, as we needed a lot of guidance! The final photos are stunning, and my husband and I will treasure them for life. Thank you so much to the entire Misha Media team. I would recommend them to anyone!

Amazing work!

We hired Misha Media for our wedding photos and absolutely loved working with Michele and Andy. They helped guide me through the whole process prior to the wedding day, and made it so easy to get the shots I wanted. Highly recommend using them!

Highly Recommend!

From the very beginning, we knew Misha Media would be the ones for us! Choosing our photographers and videographers gave me so much anxiety because it’s something that you invest so much money on and you just want to look back on your wedding day for all the years to come. All my anxiety was cleared away the second we spoke to Michele over the phone! My husband is stationed in San Diego so at the time, we were across the country from each other. Michele made it so easy to include him by scheduling a phone meeting for us all since we couldn’t meet in person. I remember right when we all hung up, I called my husband back and we both agreed, without any doubts, that they would be the ones we work with. But it didn’t stop there- they were consistent and responsive throughout the entire process all the way until the day of the wedding and even after! Michele was such joy to work with and she was so organized with timelines and all! I had no idea what to expect on the day of our wedding, and she broke it down from the second I woke up to the second our night was over. She made the whole process as stress-free as possible! She is so detail oriented and she asked questions that we would never have even thought about if she had never brought it up (which happened a handful of times, so we are very grateful for that!) They were so awesome that we ended up including the photobooth they offered as well, which was a huge hit at the reception! Very convenient since they ended up being an all-in-one package deal for us- photo, video, and photobooth. We had the pleasure of having Noelle and Joey, and Michele and Andy on the day of. They made us feel so comfortable, it felt like we all knew each other forever! Their great personalities matched their great work ethic. I could go on and on about how great their team was, but I’ll just leave it at I’m so grateful to have had them at our wedding day. From the church ceremony to the hotel reception, it was all a smooth transition. We cannot thank you guys enough! We highly recommend Misha Media to anyone and everyone!

The best of the best

If you want awesome photos and kind photographers, Michelle and Andy are the ones for you. Prompt and attentive + they knew how to work with our groomsmen who were wild that night. I can't wait to get our pics back.

Best decision you can make

My husband and I chose Misha Media Photography for our wedding and it was the best decision! When we initially started looking for photographers we didn’t feel comfortable with anyone we talked to, but when we spoke to Michele, we knew we found the right place. She is so friendly and asks a lot of detailed questions to get to know you. I loved that quality because I know the better they knew us, the better they could capture our personalities. Their whole process from start to finish was so organized and detailed and it made me so confident that we were in good hands.

Jenny and Elaine were our photographers for the day. My husband and I did not do engagement photos, so it was a little nerve-wracking using photographers that we never worked with before or had even met, but they were both fantastic. They gave great direction to everyone and captured so many beautiful photos and they put up with crazy wedding guests!

After our wedding, we got our photos back so quick and during the whole process, before and after, Michele and her team have been so quick to respond to any questions we had. I cannot thank Misha Media enough for capturing these amazing memories for us and I would highly recommend them to anyone!

Absolutely wonderful experience

My husband and I used Misha Media for our engagement photo shoot as well as our wedding. Our photographers were Mindy and Bryan and our videographers were Joey and Noelle. Although I have not gotten the wedding photos or video back yet, I felt inclined to write the review anyway based on the engagement photos and the experience of both the wedding day and the engagement shoot. Where to begin....getting photographed isn't something that my husband or I have ever experienced so it was a little nerve wracking and awkward at first but Mindy and Bryan helped us pose and made conversation to help make things more relaxed and comfortable during our engagement shoot. I definitely recommend the engagement shoot since it helps you get to know your wedding photographers and you know more of what to expect during wedding photos.

During the ten hours that we had Mindy and Bryan and the nine hours that we had Joey and Noelle they were all ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL. Mindy was the lead photographer and she truly seemed like she was a part of my bridal party. She knew my bridesmaids by name and made suggestions for photo ops that I never would have thought of. Bryan did a fantastic job at making sure all the little detail shots I asked for were captured and he did a great job directing the groomsman on how to pose.

Joey and Noelle did an amazing job recording the whole day - they never once got in anyone's way and truly did their job with elegance and grace. One of my groomsman said he didn't know what to expect with so much going on at once but he could tell that everyone from Misha Media were extremely professional and knew exactly what they were doing. I cannot agree more or express it any better myself. I feel like all four of them were such a critical part of the day.

I'm anxious to see the final product but have the utmost confidence based on the engagement photos we received and the quality of service.

Thank you SO MUCH for helping me capture the best day of our lives!

Misha Media was amazing!! We hired them for our wedding and we have no regrets.! They’re really knowledgeable and take such beautiful pictures. Michele was my main contact and she would respond so quickly to any question that I had. She would even take the time to respond when they were out of town doing other photo shoots! They really want to make your experience stress free and enjoyable. Highly recommend them!

I can't say enough about Misha Media! I was able to film along side of them at a wedding this winter and just felt right at home the entire time. They are friendly, courteous, and superbly skilled in their craft! I was so taken aback when I got to see some of the photos from the wedding. Would highly, highly recommend Misha Media for anything you are looking to do!
