Pond View Wedding
Lindsey and Mike were such a pleasure to work with! Their photographs were spectacular and they made us all feel so comfortable on the big day even though we did not have an engagement session with them previously. I was a little nervous since my husband usually takes a while to loosen up but they did an excellent job putting everyone at ease and capturing some beautiful photographs. -

Amazing beyond words
Lindsey and Mike were amazing to work with. They were very responsive and very professional. But they also were down to earth and easy to joke with. They were also fast and efficient. We have not stopped looking at our photos since we got them back. We are amazed by the shots that they took. We loved that Lindsey would show us photos that she took that she was excited about during wedding. You could feel her passion. There was nothing that they missed. We hope to work with them again in the future. They really made our day that much more special. We can’t praise them enough. -

Words can’t even express how AMAZING Focus Bay Photography is. Booking them for my wedding was the easiest decision I made during my entire planning process, and I would recommend them to anyone. Not only is their portfolio amazing, Lindsey and Mike are amazing people who will make sure your day goes smoothly and that every moment is captured beautifully.
Great communication and organizational skills were must-have attributes of my vendors. From the initial point of contact to the day my wedding gallery was delivered, my emails and text messages were always answered within an appropriate amount of time (I can be a little impatient, so this is saying a LOT). Lindsey and Mike ALWAYS delivered and followed-up on their promises, and when you are planning a wedding and trying to keep track of 4+ vendors, invitations, decorations, etc etc etc, it is so refreshing to have a vendor who is 100% on top of their game! They are able to recommend locations for your engagement shoot and will fill out all the necessary forms to obtain permission to take photos there. A few months before your wedding day, they will send you forms to fill out, which will help them organize the photography schedule on the day-of, and the forms were super easy to follow and to-the-point. Their organization made it very easy for me to remain organized as well!
I can’t review a photographer without discussing the pictures themselves. After stalking their instagram and their portfolio, it was apparent that the quality of their pictures are PHENOMENAL. We loved EVERY SINGLE picture in our gallery, and when there’s over 500 pictures, you would think that there would be at least 1 that you don’t care for, but NOPE, every single picture was amazing. Also, let’s be honest, most of us are NOT models. My husband and I needed all the direction and instruction we could get when it came to posing, smiling, hand placement, eyeball placement, you get the point, but thankfully Mike and Lindsey are absolute pros at giving direction, and I promise you and your spouse will look like models if you choose Focus Bay Photography as your wedding photographer.
I was pleasantly surprised by how caring and thoughtful Lindsey and Mike were. Honestly, if it weren’t for them I don’t think my day would have gone as smoothly as it did. Examples of how they exemplified this include: holding my bouquet or drink whenever I needed to free my hands (climbing in and out of a golf cart in a wedding gown is quite difficult), offering to run small errands on the day of, making sure my hair wasn’t stuck in my armpit (gross, I know, but it’s the reality of having long hair - brides beware), taking on the role of my day-of-coordinator when she was busy doing something else, I could go on and on and on. Bottom line is, Mike and Lindsey were a huge part of my wedding day in ways I would have never expected, and I am SO thankful that Focus Bay Photography was there on my big day to capture all of our special moments!

Lindsey Sent on 11/04/2019Great Photography Duo
Lindsey and Mike were clutch on our wedding day. Lindsey's communication in email and on the phone was clear and helpful leading up to the big day. On the wedding day, Lindsey helped to keep me calm, cool & collected and always assured me we were on track with time and didn't need to rush. Mike kept the group laughing, and Lindsey gave very clear direction during all of the wedding party and family photos, which we really needed. They kept us constantly moving, which gave us time to do a lot of cool sunset and vineyard photos at our venue. They captured all of the photos we requested, and were very easy and natural to work with all day/night. My husband and I both thought Lindsey and Mike were a great duo and bickered just like my husband and I do, which kept us giggling and calm during sunset photos. As for photo quality, our sneak peek photos were great, as were the photos in the final wedding gallery, and this was their first time at this venue! Highly recommend. -

Lindsey and Mike are absolute professionals. One of the great things about photographers is that you can actually know how you mesh before the wedding day, something you don't get with most vendors. We were a little nervous that taking our engagement photos would be awkward but Lindsey and Mike really put us at ease in a way that I think only a couple that works together can. On our wedding day, they were extremely organized even though we arrived a little late to the venue (they were on time and began taking venue detail shots before we arrived). We received all the photos we could have wanted, and more. For their quality and style of photography, I also noticed that their prices were a great value compared with other similar photographers. I would absolutely recommend Focus Bay for your big day! -

There is not enough characters to begin to describe how much I love Focus Bay Photography! Form my first interaction with Mike and Lindsey I knew they were going to be our photographers! Mike and Lindsey were so professional and kind throughout the whole process! Even on our wedding day they took all my crazy ideas and made them a reality! Our wedding photos are absolutely stunning! Breath taking! I know I am biased but EVERYONE has been raving about our photos! The bridal salon I bought my dress even shared some photos and called me swooning over our photos! Mike and Lindsey has hearts of pure gold and it was truly an honor to work with them! I’ll be calling them when our little family grows for more photos! I couldn’t imagine having someone else capture the most important day of my life, and all the important days to come! -

Ashleigh Sent on 10/17/2018Wonderful!!
Working with Lindsey and Mike was wonderful! We were looking for someone who was relaxed and professional, and they completely exceeded my expectations. Planning with them was so easy. They were able to make sure that I got everything I was looking for, and communicated with my mom so well when she had additional questions. Most importantly for me, I felt so comfortable taking pictures on my wedding day because they were so easy to work with. We got married on a Sunday afternoon, and despite the harsh midday sun, the pictures turned out absolutely perfectly! Thanks Lindsey and Mike!! -
Katy Sent on 05/27/2018Lindsey & Mike photographed our wedding in October 2017. They are AWESOME! I should have known how amazing they’d be when they agreed to meet us for the first time at a brewery with our dog! They are so nice and down to earth, people that we could actually connect with and let down our guards when being photographed - something we were a little nervous about, as we aren’t really the kind of couple that likes to be in front of the camera. They were also super flexible with our package - we k ew we didn’t really want an engagement session, so Mike and Lindsey worked with us to make sure our package included everything we wanted but nothing we didn’t. On the day of, they were so great - so patient with the finicky flower girl, and they totally rolled with the punches when we had some unexpected hiccups. I can’t say enough nice things about Lindsey and Mike - if you want a team that You can really get comfortable with, they should be your choice!!!

Heather Sent on 05/09/2018Lindsey and Mike are incredible photographers! They have captured huge moments throughout my husband and my's relationship starting with the proposal, to the formal engagement photo session and finally, the wedding. With every gallery, we have fallen in love with the photos and they've constantly exceeded our expectations. Lindsey and Mike are completely professional, while being fun and relatable. They even made sure we received a sneak peak the day after the wedding before we left for our honeymoon! Of course, I couldn't stop staring at them on the plane ride. We have already received so many compliments from our friends and family members as far as the quality of the photos. I can't put into words how amazing it was to work with Focus Bay and we highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for incredible proposal/engagement/wedding photos. Thank you Lindsey and Mike for capturing our perfect day!

Jackie Sent on 10/05/2017Lindsay & Mike were THE BEST situation as far as photographer/videographer team we could come by in the Southern Maryland area. Originally from Philadelphia, we had to do our research for an affordable, yet QUALITY photographer foremost, AND doubling with film as a added BONUS. The bride having a background in event planning knew that Focus Bay had what it takes to take an event and capture the essence of the couple and true meaning behind the vows and entire vision. So, being a couple from Philly, but recently settled in Maryland, Focusbay knew by interviewing us that we wanted to share our newly beloved hobbies of living by the water (fishing, crabbing, boating, bay beach sunsets) but WITH out closest friends and family on our wedding day. They absolutely took the entire theme and ran with it all throughout our photos/video. Their video team with Blue Duck Weddings totally ROCKED out vision throughout the video. AND THEN, to add to our appreciation of this Focus Bay group, the photos you could NEVER tell, but the weather wasn't the greatest. SOOOO they came BACK to our Kent Island venue and did a second photoshoot with us AGAIN after our honeymoon. Just so that we could get some photos with sunshine and on the beach of our wedding venue the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club. They NEVER made me feel like I was ridiculous for desiring more photos, even though, we all know my GROOM was doing this for THE BRIDE! Happy wife, happy life! Right!? Hah, either way, we really appreciated Focus Bay's enthusiasm for our wedded wishes from START to FINISH. They are BY FAR the best couple photography the Maryland wedding market could ask for. Highly recommend. Email if you would like to see more of our Nautical, shabby chic wedding album. -

Maddy Sent on 08/03/2016Focus Bay was great and I knew my husband and I wanted them from our first meeting. They are down-to-earth and easy to feel comfortable with, which is important when you're awkward and not the best at getting the attention or your pictures taken. They were great and had a sneak peak to us the day after our wedding, which was so unexpected and exciting. The photos we got were amazing and loved our engagement session.
