    Mike and Britney were awesome! They got so many awesome shots and they are so fun to work with. They helped me figure out a good timeline for everything and was on top of being where they needed to be to get the perfect shot!

    Mike & Carol were great! They were fun to have around the day of the wedding and the pictures turned out great. We will be able to look back at our photos and get a feel for what the day was all about!

    The way Mike has been in contact with me has been unreal! He is always there to respond to my questions and always has more of a response than I need :) He is so welcoming and makes you feel like family! HIGHLY RECOMEND!

    Hiring Fetography Portraits was the best decision we could have made when planning our wedding. Chris and I cannot say enough great things about Mike and his assistant Carol. To begin with, they drove through a hazardous snowstorm to get to our wedding which proves their dedication, care and reliability. We will not be able to thank them enough for being there that day.
    We had already loved Mike after meeting him for our engagement pictures and couldn't wait to see him again. He quickly became more than just our photographer - he became our friend. Mike has a way to make you very comfortable from the start with his professional, friendly attitude. We trusted him and told him to run the show with whatever pictures he wanted to take because we knew his amazing creativity would capture only the best moments and memories from our wedding and turn them into art. Mike doesn't just have attention to detail - he has an attention to perfection for each picture he takes.
    Starting with our initial email to Mike and throughout our engagement, he was always very quick to respond whenever we needed him. He even calmed me down whenever I started getting stressed about the big day. To say he is just a photographer is an understatement. It was truly an honor to have Mike be a part of our wedding day and his art will forever remind us of our special day. It's easy to see this is his life passion, not just a job. We already cannot wait to use Fetography Portraits again in the future and highly recommend Mike to anyone we know. Love you Mike!


    We couldn't have imagined our wedding without him!

    Still can't believe what good luck my fiance and I had finding Fetography Portraits on weddingwire. My fiance reached out for information and Mike responded with an hour which was greatly appreciated. His quick response, professionalism, friendly personality and website gallery that showed incredible talent, led us to booking him and we have been very happy ever since. Recently did our engagement photo session and loved Mike even more for making us feel comfortable and for taking amazing photos. We cannot wait to see Mike again on our wedding day and see the creative, wonderful photos he takes that day! We highly recommend Fetography Portraits!

    Mike and Carol were simply amazing. As soon as I saw his work, I knew he was the one. All of his shots that I had seen from previous weddings were so romantic and timeless, just what I wanted. When booking with him he told me little things like "you won't even know we are there taking pictures." And I rolled my eyes thinking.."Of course I'll know you're there!! You'll be in my face all night with a camera!" But after all of our formal a were taken and the party was about to start, I literally didn't notice Mike or Carol there that night. At one point in the night he did show me a few pictures he took and I was blown away. One photo was of me and my dad dancing during our father daughter dance, I was looking directly at the camera. But in all reality I don't recall seeing Mike at all.

    Mikes creativity and attention to detail is what sets him apart from all the rest. He is such a hipster in the photography world. Because he isn't about doing the same shot over and over again for couples, he literally wants the latest and greatest for his bride and groom. He made me feel like a princess, not only on my wedding day but during the entire year and a half we had him booked. Always asking if I needed anything, thanking me for support on Facebook, and always giving me a hug everytime I saw him. He did a lot of little things that I know a lot of photographers don't or wouldn't do, and I appreciated that SO much.

    We would recommend Mike from Fetography Portraits because he made it clear from the beginning that his passion is wedding photography and every one of his clients is important to him. He immediately impressed us with his timely response to our first email. We waited days to hear back from other photographers, just to get basic information. Mike emailed us back and forth right away. Then we met with him in his studio and were amazed at his work. His wedding photography is like none we had ever seen. He took our engagement photos, which turned out great, and continued to keep in touch with us throughout our engagement. He was always available to answer any questions we had. And finally, working with Mike and his team on our wedding day was a blast! He is so friendly and made everyone feel comfortable. We had many friends and family members come up to us on our wedding night and comment about how impressed they were with our photographer. I will recommend Fetography Portraits to everyone!

    One of the best choices we made for our wedding day was our choice to work with Fetography Portraits. Mike and his team went out of their way to make our day easier. They are very flexible and tailored the day to our liking.

    My favorite thing about Fetography Portraits (aside from the amazing pictures) was that I felt like Mike was really there to help and support us on our wedding day. He checked in often throughout the night just to see how we were doing.

    Additionally, I received several comments from our wedding guests on how much they enjoyed the photographers. I was not surprised to hear this because Mike and his team really help make the atmosphere fun and less stressful.

    We highly recommend Fetography Portraits!!!

    Mike is awesome. His photography is top notch and I can't imagine that there is anyone out there better. He makes you feel very comfortable and it shows in his photos. He showed up early to our appointments and stayed late. I'm extremely thankful that we choose him for our wedding photographer and we can't wait to use him for more events.

    When Brandon and I hired Mike with Fetography Portraits to be our wedding photographer, we had no idea what we were getting ourselves into. We had no idea that Mike would be the best part of our wedding planning and surely didn't think that we would consider him a great friend at the end of it all. Mike is such a great guy and an amazing photographer and knows how to get the best out of every picture. Mike makes split second decisions to ensure that every picture is a work of art. Today, we met with Mike and viewed our wedding photos with him at his studio. 3 and a half hours later, our faces literally hurt from smiling so much. I can honestly say there is not one single picture that we don't love. We had such a hard time choosing what we wanted professionally printed and put onto canvas and the difficulty in choosing speaks to the quality of each and every picture Mike creates. Mike and his assistant Carol made sure to document each and every moment of our wedding day so that we are able to look back at our photos in the coming years and remember the feelings we were feeling in that moment and re-live the day through our pictures. He did such an amazing job throughout the entire process and we are so grateful for everything that he has done. Photography is not just his job, it is his life and it clearly shows by the hundreds of texts we have received from him, the countless hours of editing and preparing for our wedding and him laughing and crying with us on our big day. To any couple in search of a wedding photographer, I would stop your search here with Fetography Portraits because it is nothing but the best. Thanks again Mike and Carol, you are so awesome.
    Your friends and life long customers,
    Danniele and Brandon

    I would highly recommend Fetography Portraits. There are a lot of photographers to choose from and Mike stood out! I did a lot of research on photographers because the photos last after the wedding, everything else is only for that one special day. We met at the bridal expo and I was amazed at how passionate he was about his work. I knew he was the one for my wedding. Leading up to the wedding, he was very helpful and willing to answer any questions I had and he responded to my emails very quickly. He arrived at the wedding early and got a lot of shots that I absolutely love! My family and friends kept telling me how great my photographer was. We had our reception at Modern Woodmen Park and he did an amazing shot on the ferris wheel. Before the wedding I told him I wanted to do that shot after a similar photo I saw on Pinterest. I immediately sent the picture to him and told him I wanted to do it and he said no problem, but his work would be better. The shot he did was absolutely amazing!!!!! Mike is willing to do whatever you want and he does it well! My wedding day was perfect and Fetography Portraits helped make it a success!

    I cannot express in words how grateful we are to Fetography Portraits for capturing so many special moments during our wedding day. The pictures that were given to us will ensure that we remember our wedding day in the best light and we won't forget any detail. We also loved the creativity that was used in many of our photos, they brought out the underlining beauty of our wedding. We also received our photos quickly which is a huge plus! We never doubted their professionalism or their passion to give us the best photos they could.
    Not only are the pictures fantastic but they are fantastic to work with! They added a wonderful spark to our day. Mike made me feel like I was the center of the world that day and the day before. He checked in on me to remind me that everything was going to be taken care of and he was there for me to make my day that much better. Our entire wedding party loved interacting with them during picture time, they knew how to make everyone smile and that is saying a lot given some of our groomsmen! They were there to help and take any photo we wanted without one complaint. Mike continued to remind us all day that he was there for us and not once did I see him look tired or annoyed even after taking photos for 7 hours! He was calm, cool, and professional, I'm not sure what else you can ask for. I'm so happy that we chose to work with Fetography Portraits and I would highly recommend them to anyone that is looking for a wonderful, caring, professional team to work with that will produce photo memories that will last forever. We trust their work and can not wait for them to capture our future special moments. Mike & Carol, thank you again for making our day even more special than it already was and being there for us.

    Mike Fetterer was a joy to work with! He is a true photography professional who is creative, punctual, and had beautiful results for us very soon after our event. Mike has an engaging, energetic personality that got the best out of everyone! In addition to speaking on the phone, he was early to our event to get ideas about the space and talk to us. Not much direction was necessary as he knows exactly how to take beautiful photos that capture special moments, especially the heartfelt, sweet moments. Those special moments between couples, family members and friends that were caught on camera when no one seems to be watching created some of Mike' s most beautiful photos from our event. The Janoski family is very happy Mike Fetterer was able to photograph our event and we look forward to working with him again!

    Today, I was also asked by a friend if I knew Mike before hiring him. When I responded that I had not known him, she was surprised at how comfortable we were and how Mike made it seem like we had known each other for some time. Mike treats us like family and is forever an important part of the memories we made that life changing day!!

    I have so much love and respect for Mike and his business! As I reminisce on our wedding day and how I'd love to do it all again, I think of him and all they did to make us comfortable and do all we asked for. He is amazing! I am so thankful to Mile and Fetography Portraits for being part of our amazing memories of that day!

    I was very particular when choosing a photographer, I wanted him to excel in his field & in artistry. I didn't want the normal posed photos of this and that. I wanted to have amazing memories of our magical day, & have keepsakes of all our intimate moments. Mike was fun to talk to, & easily understood what i wanted, in addition to giving me ideas I hadn't thought of. The day of, he performed above & beyond! His personality meshed so well with ours & everyone there, that by the end of the night, we were sad to see him leave! He even got the little, crying and tired flower girls laughing for all our photos. He had all of us laughing, he is that much fun to work with!!! When I saw our photos, I cried! Each one better than the last. His work is absolutely amazing!!!! You can see our emotions in our photos, all the intimate details. I am so pleased with my decision to work with Mike. I can never imagine referring anyone other than Mike for any event or occasion!

    Planning weddings isn't easy and making sure the day is documented professionally is SO important! Of all the things that could stress a couple out during the planning, photography was never a worry! Mike kept us informed and at ease throughout the whole process. I can't stop smiling when I look back at our pictures. It feels as if I'm reliving the day. My husband and I highly recommend Fetography Portrait!

    Mike captured the personality of my wonderful granddaughter. She hates to have her picture taken and after some beautiful posed shots he suggested we walk a block to the playground. The picture of her sliding down the slide is priceless. Her smile, bright blue eyes, and joy of childhood are captured on print for me to treasure forever. Mike will always be my family photographer. He has an incredible artistic talent.

    I'm going to apologize for the lengthy recommendation, but I cannot recommend Mike enough. From the moment that my husband and I first met him, we loved how down-to-earth and personable he was. I also recognized in him his absolute unbridled passion for his work. He is so invested in each and every event, and I never felt like we were just one client of many (although, technically speaking, because of his talent, we are!). He was always down to hear my ideas of what I wanted, and it validated me to know that perhaps I wasn't crazy in thinking something up myself.

    Since I like to be in control of things, I was not very thrilled that, despite the sunny weather predictions, our wedding day was mostly rainy. Mike checked up on me before he even came and "clocked in" at the wedding and reassured me that he would make everything work. And he absolutely did. I wasn't sure how well I'd do not making goofy faces knowing there was a camera on me all day, but Mike (and his assistant) did such a wonderful job capturing the events of the day discreetly that I honestly can say, save for the formals, I barely even noticed he was there, allowing him to capture the true emotions of the day. He was open to being pulled aside by family members for special pictures, and he consistently checked in with me or my husband to make sure that we were getting the photos that we needed or wanted. He even went above his duties to bring me some water--another gesture that showed that he truly cares about his clients.

    Now that I've seen all of our photos, including the beautiful album, they are enough to affirm that my husband and I made an excellent choice in Fetography Portraits. It's been a pleasure working with such a wonderful, caring, passionate professional, and I hope that others have the opportunity to meet him and be a part of his passion.

    Fetography Portraits did an outstanding job. I was blown away with the service I received along with the friendship created with Mike Fetterer. He takes the time to get to know his clients and their families to ensure the job he does is beyond anything you could hope for.
