Halloween Fun

Working with Michael was an amazing experience. He was so nice to talk to on the phone and answered all of my questions. On the day of my wedding Mike was on time, well prepared, professional and super fun to work with. Mike listened to all the ideas that we had for spots to take photos at our venue and made them all work. Mike paid special attention to details. We had a small civil ceremony and Mike captured every aspect of it. I was pleasantly surprised to receive a link to our gallery just three days later. Our photos are beautiful! I am so pleased and couldn't be happier with them. I am so thrilled that we chose Molinski Photography to capture our wedding day.

Excellent!

Michael exceeded every expectation we had when looking for a wedding photographer! Mike and his wife Nicole were very responsive right off the bat. They provided us with all wedding package details, photos they had taken at our venue in the past, and answered all of our questions. Mike worked around his busy schedule to find the time to take our engagement photoshoot during the peak of the fall season. He provided great location suggestions for the engagement shoot and first look, he was also very receptive to our ideas and made sure we had the backdrops we were looking for.

When Covid-19 hit, we changed our wedding plans several times! The initial thought of postponement, to an elopement, to a downsized guest list and a change of venue. Mike was very accommodating through all of our many wedding plan changes. He adjusted the package for us a few times without any hesitation as we continued to change our plans. Mike called the week before the wedding to finalize details and answer all of our remaining questions. Mike also worked with us before the wedding to trial a new live stream setting on his video camera! He was very attentive throughout the entire process.

The day of the wedding, Mike was more than just our photographer. He became a partial wedding day coordination and Master of Ceremonies as we had cancelled our DJ. He stepped up to assist my cousin with announcing the bridal party and special dances. He videotaped the ceremony and had it uploaded to view the very next day. Mike even found a way to make the 2 toddler ring bearers smile in our pictures. On top of thinking of every detail, Mike took amazing photographs and had them edited and uploaded for us within a week! The Molinski’s do exceptional work and we are very happy with how our photos turned out and with how he assisted with making our day memorable.

Amazing Professional Photos

Michael is very professional, and extremely talented. The photographs exceeded our expectations! My husband and I didn't have a large wedding (50 guests), due to COVID regulations. We decided to meet at 2 additional locations for pictures, before the wedding. Michael is true artist, as he incorporated an old train bridge, a river and greenery into the photos. For the 2nd stop we took pictures at my parents house. I loved the garden pictures and how he used different angles. The final stop was at the wedding venue, which is at a golf course. It was a windy day and we had access to golf carts. Michael brought a photo umbrella for shade and a sandbag to hold it down. He thought of everything. Throughout the day he acted with the upmost professionalism and patience. He was very polite and pleasant to all of my guests. Additionally, he was extremely helpful to me during the ceremony and reception. He reminded me to take all the family pictures. He even pinned the groomsmens (3) boutonnieres on them. He was a tremendous help to my husband and I. The pictures are absolutely perfect and we will cherish them for years. We will definitely use Michael again for our next event. Thank you!

From our first meeting until our wedding day Mike and Nicole were just a phone call away and answered any questions we might of had. We had our engagement photos taken by Mike and they came out fantastic. He was up for trying something new and the photos were great. Wedding day, Mike and Nicole were amazing. They worked with our crazy wedding party and did anything for the perfect picture. We can’t wait to see our wedding photos!

Mike and Nicole Molinski were amazing every step of the way! They are the nicest couple and very laid back which makes you feel super comfortable! They are very professional and will work with you to help create the perfect day. We really liked how they are with you from start to finish that day to help capture all the great moments throughout the whole evening. Their photo booth was the best value we found and I highly recommend using theirs- it was a huge hit at our wedding and we used the photos as our favors. We definitely recommend Molinski Photography!!!!
