Bride and groom
Michael was an absolute rockstar to work with. Not only is he INCREDIBLY talented, but just an amazing person. He does pretty much anything to get that perfect shot, and is a magician with lighting. He is the best of the best! Super flexible, but also is sure to do what he knows is best to get the most beautiful picture. WE LOVE MICHAEL!-

Best Photographer!
We cannot say enough great things about Michael. My now-husband first met him almost 10 years ago when Michael was his brother’s wedding photographer in Key West. He made such a lasting impression on the family that my mother-in-law suggested we try to book him for our wedding. I am so glad she did!
From the very first consultation call all the way through the reception, working with him was an easy and fun experience. He made the entire process feel effortless and enjoyable.
Beyond his incredible talent, Michael is genuinely kind, compassionate, and an all-around great guy. His passion for his work truly shows in everything he does - including diving in the sand to get the perfect fireworks shot during our welcome dinner. His attention to detail made a huge difference throughout our wedding weekend. We felt completely comfortable and confident having him capture such important moments. We would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional photographer. You will not regret choosing Michael Freas as your photographer.-

Michael Freas is an artist
I believe choosing a photographer for your wedding is one of the most important steps of your wedding journey. The photos are how you're going to relive the best day of your life.
I found Michael on Instagram after going through TONS of photographers. As soon as I found his page, I knew I'd found the right guy. There's not a single photo in his portfolio that I don't love. I don't know how he does it, but he captured every single emotion of the day from me as the bride, to my husband (!!), to all our guests. I only have the preview photos (which he had to us by the NEXT MORNING - after taking like 10K photos the day before), but they are absolutely stunning. His editing style is EXACTLY what I was looking for. He doesn't zhuzh your photos up with the same boring filters. His photos feel real and rich.
My husband and I believe Michael was one of the best decisions we made about our wedding. All of our guests have already complimented on our much they love our 30-40 preview photos. I cannot wait for the rest of them to come in!
While also being incredibly talented, Michael is also very passionate about his work and the people he's shooting. We did an engagement shoot with him before the wedding and had a blast! He's a super fun guy who is really resourceful. He knows so much about the areas he works so feel free to ask him for recommendations!
We loved working with Michael and you will not regret it if you choose him! -

The BEST wedding photographer in NC
As a native of Florida I knew I wanted my wedding in a cooler weather and more nature-filled location. The mountains of North Carolina have always been a special place for me, and when I decided our wedding would be there I was a bit overwhelmed finding an out-of-town photographer. I scoured the internet, interviewed 3 sources. Michael Freas was the most highly rated, a very detailed website showing his talents, and after having a phone interview with him my now husband and I knew he was the guy for the job!
Michael is knowledgeable of the North Carolina area, of course photography and overall a great guy to interact with. I believe we had 3-4 phone call sessions, 1 meeting in person to look at wedding ceremony and reception locations and then the actual day of the wedding. Our wedding day was perfect due in part to Michael's creative vision for photos all while giving us the space to interact with our guests, and dance the night away together as husband and wife. I would highly recommend Michael as your wedding photographer! -

Impressively Talented Photographer
Seeing Michael's work is impressive, but experiencing it is truly special. His creative vision is a genuine gift, as he has a unique perspective on the world around him. During our sessions, he would occasionally share previews of what he was capturing, and I was consistently amazed by his ability to first conceptualize his vision and then execute it. Additionally, as someone who personally dislikes being photographed, Michael made the sessions feel natural, creating a comfortable and casual atmosphere. I believe this played a significant role in capturing the genuine emotions of our wedding day, which are beautifully showcased in the final product. -

No Need to Look Further For A Photographer
Once I found the Instagram of Michael Freas Photography in my early stages of wedding planning, I knew I had to inquire quickly....because I knew due to his quality of work, his schedule would book fast! He was my first vendor I booked early in my planning process, but with no regret! Michael brought the upbeat, creativity to our wedding weekend in Key Largo. He looked for all of the right angles for the shots and made the shots happen! I felt confident in Michael (and his quiet but hilarious assistant, Julio) during every part of our day. He took control when needed and blended into the day seamlessly. He even sent me sneak peak photos the very next day! I will cherish these moments he captured forever. If you're looking for a fun, versatile, and adventurous photographer, Michael is your guy! -

AMAZING photos and such a fun photographer!
Michael was such an amazing photographer to work with. We were originally attracted to some of the photos we saw on his Instagram page- they were unique and stunningly beautiful especially the way he captured scenic backgrounds. He did not disappoint when it came to our photos. We not only got those amazing scenic photos- but he also captured all of the love, fun and the amazing celebration we had that day. Michael felt like he was another fun guest at out wedding. Everyone enjoyed his presence and energy that he brought to the wedding day! We could not recommend him more! -

Perfect elopement photos in the mountains!
Michael did a fantastic job for our elopement! He went above and beyond to make everything perfect. We came from out of state to elope and get some beautiful pictures out in the Appalachian mountains. Before the elopement he hiked the trails to recon the best spots and send us video and did video chats with us to make sure everything was perfect. When we arrived he had a pop up tent and bags to help carry the suit and dress and change out on the trail. He also drove us there and back. We really didn’t have to worry about anything, Michael made sure everything was perfect. We go beautiful digital copies and he sells wonderful print books. We will definitely do a follow up photo shoot with him in the future. We will always remember him and his hard work in capturing our special day. -

Absolutely perfect experience
From start to finish, Michael was wonderful to work with. I appreciate that he not only wanted to take excellent pictures, but also get to know us as a couple. He was professional, fun, and above all, an AMAZING photographer. Guests who saw previews of our pictures all said that they were the best wedding pictures they had ever seen. He captured our day perfectly. Would highly recommend Michael to anyone!! -

Excellent Photographer!
My wife and I would definitely recommend hiring Michael Freas as your wedding photographer! While we could have gone with a cheaper photographer, we knew that we wanted great quality photos of our wedding. Before booking, we asked for him to show us some previous photos and they were significantly better than ALL of the other photographers we contacted. Michael Freas took outstanding photos at our wedding and was 100% worth every penny. He did an amazing job at capturing all of our special moments and perfectly coordinated all of our guests and family for the best shots.
Michael Freas is down to earth and easy going. He’s dedicated and passionate about what he does, which is clearly reflected in his photos. A great photographer that really wants to get to know you on a personal level, so that he understands what type of photos you want. Michael really went above and beyond to make sure our photos came out absolutely spectacular, even to the point of yelling to a boat captain to turn his sail boat for an amazing photo (see photo below). If we need a photographer for any future events, we will definitely call him.-

Fantastic!
We had a great experience with Michael! Not only are the photos amazing, he is knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. My partner and I are more than a little awkward, but he made us feel comfortable and worked great with our 11 month old and dog. He led us to some awesome spots and was extremely patient and flexible with us. We had a mix up with our dates and Michael barely batted an eye to accommodate us and get us the wedding shots of our dreams. -

Hire the best!
Once I saw some of the stunning images online, I knew I had to hire Michael for my Key West wedding...we booked him before we even booked the venue. Mike is someone you kinda wanna hang out all day with...he just has this easy going way about him that makes you relax- key for my husband who HATES pictures. I wanted him to be able to relax and have fun during the process and the results def show that. We got so many amazing pictures that really captured the day. Don't hesitate, just hire him if you truly care about having gorgeous pictures!-

Amazing experience! Highly recommend Mike Freas
Mike Freas is absolutely phenomenal! He was the photographer at our wedding on 11/6/2021 and we are so happy he was the one to document our day!
Mike is very professional, easy to get in touch with, and timely. He gets to know you very well throughout the planning process so he can help document / portray your wedding story. We got so comfortable with him, we were able to truly relax and just enjoy the moment during our wedding day without being nervous about our pictures being taken.
His pictures are outstanding! So many of our guests are telling us these are the best wedding photos they’ve seen. He has such an eye for catching those special moments. We relive our wedding day whenever we look at the pictures he took for us! From it being just me and my husband standing outside at our venue with the most gorgeous sunset in the background, to catching everyone busting a move on the dance floor, he captures the story of the night so well. He was able to document those moments beautifully so we can look at them for forever. That day goes so fast, it’s a whirlwind, Mike being there to document so we can relive those moments is so special. So so so happy Mike was our photographer!
Hands down, I would recommend Mike Freas.
Mike, thank you so much for everything!! We appreciate you!

Perfect intimate elopement ceremony!
Michael was very responsive from day one. He was able to book and then upgrade our session all within a short amount of time, which we really appreciated. Michael even scouted the area we were going to shoot our photos in the days prior to our session, so was very prepared. There was a high chance of rain and when we were supposed to shoot, but Michael reassured us it would all work out, and it did! The rain stopped just before our session time, just like he forecasted. Our photos also came out gorgeous, and he made the experience really fun. -

Best of the best!
We worked with Michael for our engagement shoot and wedding day, and he exceeded our expectations with our photos! We had to postpone our wedding date due to covid and he was very flexible and understanding of our change. When wedding day came around, Michael made photo-taking fun and stress-free. He’s an incredibly talented photographer, who doesn’t settle for posed pictures. He makes a point of getting to know the couples he works with, so he can better understand how to capture their special moments. He’s a storytelling photographer, and it definitely showed in the final product. We can’t recommend Michael enough, so if you need a photographer for your special day…look no further! -

Personable and professional
Michael was incredibly easy to work with from the first video chat we had. Extremely personable and professional and made our wedding day a blast. He's the kind of person you want there with you spending your special day with you. He handled all of the wedding drama like a true professional and was a hit with all of our guests. Prepare for Michael to be all over the dance floor doing whatever it takes to get the perfect picture. Michael is willing to go that extra mile throughout the entire day and really capture everything that makes your wedding day special. -

Have Michael as your wedding photographer!
My husband and I live over a thousand miles from Key West and decided to do a planned elopement there. Of course the one day it rained was our wedding day, but Michael knew the island and the people on it so well, took the stress off of us, helped us make a new plan, and took the best photos we could have ever asked for! -

Engagement Shoot gone Perfect
When contacting Michael, I was looking for a photographer to shoot my engagement in Key West. He picked up the phone and called me the next day and we talked through the entire plan. It was in that moment that I knew I picked a great photographer. Man was I right. We had some small changes of plans and he went right with the flow, got incredible pictures and was an all around awesome photographer to work with. We plan to book him for our wedding because this experience was that great! -

An absolute must!
If you want a typical wedding photographer, he's NOT your guy. If you want someone who takes in every aspect of your day, carefully taking time to think about where the best shot is going to be, helping you with every step in planning, and who is seriously dedicated to his craft (and his clients) then he is DEFINITELY your guy. His work is ART. He fits in to the crowd, chatting with each guest to make them all feel comfortable and just like he's part of the day. We spent a year and a half planning and almost a full year of multiple postponements and he was with us every step of the way. When we finally saw each other on the big day, he was just as excited as I was. It's been 2 weeks and we just got our gallery and whew, it's amazing! If you're still considering who to use, stop and book the dude ASAP. -

Key West Wedding
We had our wedding on 2/29/20, in Key West. We're not from the area, so we had to plan everything remotely - and Michael made it super easy to do. He is a very genuine and direct person, which made it easier to navigate the whole process. He would text, email, call, even video chat, to get to know us and what we wanted. We do believe getting to know him in this manner helped him better understand us as a couple, and translated to better photos on our big day. He takes fantastic candid/action shots that really captured the moment!
We ultimately did two sessions with Michael - an engagement shoot, and the day of wedding. Both sets turned out amazing, and would certainly recommend! -

Gorgeous engagement pictures by and easy going professional
Michael responded to my custom request to do engagement photos with our personal boat and boat dog included. He brought us back into the mud keys and took loads of on boat pictures, in the way water, action shots with our dog, and drone shots with writing in the sand. He then hosted us to get cleaned up from that shoot and to take dock sunset pictures in Key West and some shots by our favorite local spots. The pictures were amazing, he really got the essence of who we are and absolutely made it a refreshing experience. He got the photos back to us edited and selected in short order - it couldn’t have been more than two weeks. He’s a pleasure to work with, he’s got a great eye for gorgeous back drops, posing in natural ways, and getting true emotions to shine through. I absolutely will book him again for another boat shoot or any other special event. -

Absolutely breathtaking
Mike was absolutely incredible. He captured every moment I wanted with my husband. Absolutely stunning photos. The best wedding photographer ever. Stayed very relaxed and up beat. And he made it all about the bride and groom. Mike ever put us on opposite side of the alter so the sun wasn’t directly in the ladies eyes and the photos came out phenomenal!!!-

Thanks Mike!
Mike captured my wife and my wedding on November 21, 2020. Leading up to the wedding day Mike communicated with us perfectly to show how prepared and professional he was for our big day. This is an important step in capturing a wedding. Most people look over the hard work that goes on before and after the wedding day. The results speak for themselves.
As a photographer Mike excels in capturing candid moments in time while playing with light and composition. As a fellow photographer that is all I asked for. Looking back on our photos it takes us back to the wedding day and brings back all the emotions we experienced. That’s what you get when you hire Mike and we couldn’t be happier! -

Unique wedding photography
We randomly found about Michael online and noticed that he creates very unisual and unique wedding photos. The photos he created for our elopement ceremony completely exceeded our expectations. He made us feel very special on our wedding day and made the photo shoot very memorable. Neither me, nor my husband enjoy in general posing for photos but Michael made the whole experience super enjoyable and fun. It was actually one of our favourite parts of our wedding day - hanging out around Palm Beach with Michael taking photos. He was also absolutely amazing at finding spots and locations for our wedding photo shoot and did all the research for that. After we shared our wedding photos, we got tons of compliments and many of our friends said these were the best made wedding photos they have seen so far. Michael didn’t just take our pictures but he created a relationship with us and became a friend that was part of the wedding. We would 100% recommend working with Michael! -

Breathtaking Moments Forever
Michael was great to work with - he was very responsive to my questions and creative with my tiny venue. It was very rainy (like a hurricane was in the area rainy) the day of my ceremony and Michael just rolled with everything, even giving me and my bridal party a ride to the venue since it was too wet to go in the golf cart. I know the photos he captured (just on the little sneak we've had) are going to be something we cherish and admire forever. I would recommend Michael to any bride or groom that wants exceptional photos to remember their special day forever. -

Crazy fun, crazy good
Michael is an artist. I could stop there but I will add a bit more detail for those of you making the tough decision of selecting a photographer. My story is useful, I think, as you're shopping vendors, as I got to see another side of folks once we had to start rescheduling and eventually cancelling our larger-scale event due to COVID. I actually started with a different Key West photographer who, after my deposit was paid, stopped responding to emails in a timely manner and all but ghosted me once I needed to reschedule/cancel. My event organizer (Jackie at First Flight - amazing!) recommended I touch base with Michael. Best thing I did. Michael was willing to take us on fairly last minute, and was just the best. He was flexible and supportive and really took the time to not only get to know us, but also helped me find an alternate venue and even hooked me up with a friend to work out a flower arrangement. After all that, he went on to take some of the most beautiful pictures I've ever seen. He even played along with my silly idea of taking some rain boot pictures since we narrowly missed getting rained out on the day of our ceremony! He made it fun and memorable after really feeling like everything was against us. Highly recommend if you are looking for photos that will not only stand the test of time but also stand out amongst the crowd. -

Absolutely amazing
If you are looking for a wedding photographer look no further- Michael is your guy! We could not have better things to say about Michael, from the planning process to the wee hours of wedding night. He worked his butt off in this Florida heat and his pictures did not disappoint! I am so grateful Michael pushed me to keep taking pictures when I was over it because a South Florida September wedding is no joke in the heat! Our guests absolutely loved and raved about how great and excited he was the whole night. We will 100% be using Michael in the future for family photos! -

Absolutely the BEST there is!
This review is loooong overdue! What is there to say about Michael except that he is…
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! THE BEST, MOST STUNNING PHOTOGRAPHER, EVER!
The moment my new husband and I became engaged, I knew that in planning any wedding, the photographer was going to be one of the most important decisions we would make for our wedding. Planning a dream wedding without the fairytale photos is absolutely pointless. Moreover, I knew that I didn’t want the regurgitated typical staged poses that have been the norm for the last century. I wanted someone to capture the moments, the emotions, the art. Michael is not only an amazing photographer, but his work tells the story in the most unobtrusive and artistic way.
I stalked Michael’s work having found him on Instagram while looking for a photographer that knew my venue and took the best photos, by the advice of one of my best friends, and bridesmaid, who is also an amazing photographer. She said I needed someone that knew the ins and outs of the venue, the lighting, etc… She was right, but even knowing how important this all was, I was intimidated by the cost. Michael instantly scoffed at my resistance and worked with me to make it happen within my budget. This was only the start.
Who would have known, at that time, that COVID-19, was going to be the act of god, that I could never have planned for? Needless to say, three weeks before our wedding we were postponed. Michael not only worked with me to change the date without penalizing me, but also called a couple vendors, along with my amazing planner, to get everyone on board. Michael and I continued to communicate through the entire postponement, becoming friends impassioned by the many politics surrounding the whole pandemic.
On the day of, Michael showed up true to form, full of energy. He is like that friend you haven’t seen in years, but you pick right up where you left off like you never missed a day. My husband, normally awkward in photos, instantly felt comfortable with Michael… He was a true guys guy, and my husband actually had fun throughout the entire process!
If you are debating at all… stop now, you have found your photographer!
Michael, I cannot thank you enough for all you did for us! We may catch up w you for an anniversary shoot in North Carolina!-

He is the BEST
My husband and I are blown away by Michael's talent. He made our wedding day the most special day of our lives! From the moment we met Michael we knew he was the one. His work speaks for itself and he has a way of brining the day to life with his eye for magic and his warm and refreshing personality. I personally hate taking pictures but our wedding day was my one exception, thanks to Michael making me feel so at ease.
I feel Michael has a supernatural gift for capturing once in a lifetime moments and he keeps it fun, professional and spectacular all the way. He is a genius at what he does and I’m so happy to see someone who is so talented and gifted, using their gifts to bless the world.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts 💕

Best Photographer Experience Ever!
My husband and I recently eloped in Key West. Being from out of town, we were nervous about what vendors and people to work with and who to trust. Michael immediately quieted the concern over which photographer to use. He was so helpful from the get go and took time to get to know us starting day 1. On the day of our event, he made the experience fun, lighthearted, and seamless by going above and beyond to make us feel like the time we had to take pictures was all about having fun, enjoying the day, and sharing some laughter. We've received AMAZING sneak peak pictures already and can not wait to see the rest of his work. If you are looking for an amazing photographer, go with Michael Freas! -

Amazing experience
When we first began looking for a photographer for our elopement we didn't quite know what we wanted, but after looking at Michael's website we knew he was the person we wanted to work with. I hate super posed photos and wanted our portraits to really be "us," not cookie-cutter or look like stock photos. After speaking with him we definitely knew we made the right choice. Since we were coming in from out of town Michael offered to meet up with us the day before our wedding and scout the perfect locations for our ceremony and photos in the Key West Garden Club. He was funny and very down to earth, making us feel very comfortable. The day of our wedding he timed our final photos perfect and caught the incredible Key West sunset I had hoped and dreamed would be the backdrop of our portraits. To say we are happy with our photos is an understatement. We absolutely love them! -

The BEST and most creative wedding photographer!
Mike was definitely my first choice when picking our wedding photographer! He has such a unique style and (personality to match!). He was easy to work with and quick to respond in the months leading up to the wedding. Mike takes the time to get to know his clients in advance so that he can best capture their day. The photos turned out beautifully and everyone that sees them says he captured our personalities spot on! Hands down he was the best choice we made among all the wedding decisions.-

Amazing experience!
Michael was a complete joy to work with from start to finish. Through the planning process and actual photo shoot, he makes you feel comfortable and like he is personalizing the session to you as a couple. Michael is easy going and just an overall blast to be around. He has a way of making sure you have fun during the shoot and it shows in his photos. We are blown away by the experience overall and by the incredible photos he gave us. I would recommend Michael's work over and over again! -

We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Mike Freas as our photographer.
We cannot say enough good things about our experience with Mike as our photographer.
We were married December 2019 at the Hemingway House in Key West, FL. Mike was an obvious choice as his work spoke for itself. His portfolio displayed the exact vibe we were going for — effortless, fun, artistic, unique. We told Mike from the get-go that we wanted to limit posed pictures. We wanted all candids with the hopes of capturing real, unstaged moments. Mike most definitely delivered our vision. He was a true ninja, getting on the dance floor and capturing all of our guests having a great time.
Mike was so familiar with the Hemingway property, he knew from experience exactly what was going to work. He knew EVERY SINGLE ONE of our vendors personally and spoke with them directly to work out all the details - which made it soooo easy for us! During the months leading up to our wedding, people around town would ask “who is your photographer” and when we mentioned Mike Freas they said he was the best.
Our favorite part of our wedding day was driving around before our ceremony took place — snapping pics all over Key West. He is so chill and laid back, he made our wedding day relaxed and fun. If you are reading this, do yourself a favor and call him right now! We were over 18 months out and he was already filling up his schedule. -

Michael Freas is the best in the business!
We absolutely LOVE Michael Freas! He was referred to us by a friend and it was honestly one of the best matches in this entire wedding process. He is so organized, and his authentic self which makes the process of getting to know each other fun and easy. He truly cares about his work, his attention to detail, and knowing you as a couple - so be prepared to have real conversations. Go into the experience with ideas around what you want and Michael will make sure it all happens. We met several times leading up to the wedding via skype which was a great way to stay connected. On the day of, he was everywhere! He captured the MOST AMAZING first look pictures and puts such quality in his work. We haven't seen everything yet, but what we have seen we are obsessed with. At the wedding, everywhere I turned around he was there capturing the moment, so we were able to just be us and enjoy that night and he captured everything we were experiencing. He works hard and it shows!!-

Best Photographer Ever!
Where do I even begin with Mike and his work? Mike shot my wedding in Sorrento, Italy. He was incredibly professional, informative, and helpful throughout the whole process. My husband and I are quite awkward in front of a camera, but with Mike's humor and guidance, our pictures came out amazing! Because our wedding was a destination wedding, Mike took the time to video chat with us, and we looked on Google Street View at all the local spots. He also arrived several days early to scope out some good spots near the venue to take pictures. I would recommend him to anyone who wants their wedding to be fun, relaxed, and beautifully captured! We cannot thank Mike enough for all the time, care, and work he put into capturing our perfect day. -

We love michael freas photography!
My husband and I truly cannot say enough how happy we are that we chose Michael Freas Photography for our wedding. From the day we hired him it was easy, efficient, and smooth sailing. Michael really cares about each of his clients and is extremely talented. On the day of the wedding Michael ran the show which is exactly what we needed. He took control of the day and made everything run smoothly and made sure we got all the photos we wanted but still stayed on time and it was honestly the most helpful quality. The day of can get really chaotic but Michael and his team made everything run smoothly which eased our nerves. Then we got our photos back (in less than a month) and we were blown away. The quality of his work is channeled though every photo and we relive our wedding day every time we look through them. He captured every candid special moment and we are so beyond grateful. If you are looking for a wedding photographer, look no further than Michael Freas Photography. He is AMAZING in every way❤️-

If you want AMAZING photos and a photographer who truly captures those memorable moments, look no further than Mike Freas! I love his photojournalism style!!! His photos tell a story and documented our day so well, so much so, that when I looked back through the photos, I was reliving each moment! Even more, he brings a fun, creative energy to the day! He put in an awesome request with our band to get the dance floor packed! His photos are pure genius and he is an absolute pro! I'll cherish these photos forever!-

Absolutely the best!
Freas photography blows the competitors out of the water. His images are classic, but also fun and modern. He has an incredible eye for light and can capture moments that would pass in a blink of an eye. Mike is so friendly to work with, he keeps you at ease and makes you genuinely laugh (no fake smiles in our photos!). When our timeline got interrupted in our wedding in March he made sure to stay later than planned to capture a late night cake cutting and last song on the dance floor. If you're looking for unique, genuine, meaningful (pose-free) photos you have to hire Freas Photography. We are so glad we chose Freas and would highly recommend him to anyone! -

Mike is a the type of person who feel like you've known for years. Having TRUST in your photographer is so important!!! Mike is an individual who truly loves his craft, and is always looking to push the boundaries when it comes to wedding photography. Mike's composition and exposure skills shine through his work. We're obsessed with the outcome of our photos. Thank you Mike!-

Photo shoot in Key West
My husband and I hired Mike for a wedding photo shoot in Key West! It was an excellent experience working with him. He is fun and cheerful and has very unique, creative and amazing perspectives. He made us feel very comfortable during the entire photo shooting process and captured all the special and important moments for us. We got the edited images much faster than we expected and we love them! One of our photos even won an WPJA Artistic Award! We would definitely recommend Mike to anyone. -

Best. Photographer. Ever.
Mike was one of the first vendors we hired after getting multiple recommendations to do so. Between our engagement shoot and our wedding, we can't imagine having a better, more genuine and dedicated person to capture some of the biggest moments in our new life together. We now consider Mike an invaluable part of this new adventure and a dear friend. If you're on the fence about hiring him, jump the fence and just do it! You will not regret it. -

We hired Mike for our wedding in Ohio, and we could not be happier with our decision! Although we gave Mike a bit of a challenge, with having separate venues and roughly 160 guests, he captured our entire wedding day with ease!!! Our wedding photos tell our story, and brings back all of those amazing feelings that we had throughout our wedding weekend. We cannot wait to see the rest!!! If you hire Mike for your event, you will not be disappointed! -

Mike Freas is hands down one of the BEST photographers we’ve ever had!! He did both our engagement shoot & our wedding day and I’m STILL swooning over the pictures after months have gone by. For our engagement shoot he took us on his boat to a private island to capture the most magical photos; and for our wedding day he also drove us around Key West to some amazing secret spots!! At the end of our wedding we did a crazy picture of the wedding party shooting champagne everywhere and mike didn’t hesitate to get the best angles of it (even if that meant getting his equipment wet and sticky!!). Overall the has an excellent talent for creative pieces and he is as honest as they get. He is willing to travel out of key west so I guarantee you won’t be disappointed!!!-

Michael was incredible to work with. We came across his photos online and fell in love with his perspectives and colors. From the first phone call, to receiving our photos, we were extremely pleased. Michael spent time with me on the phone sharing helpful advice on so many aspects of our wedding day, beyond photography, and helped us in making many choices for our big day. Every one of his suggestions was a hit. My husband and I were a little nervous about feeling “natural” in our photos, as photo shoots are out of our wheelhouse, but Michael made us feel incredibly comfortable and had us laughing and smiling all the way through. Our photos were sent to us faster than we could’ve hoped for, and we couldn’t be happier. We have received so many compliments on the beauty and vibrancy of our photos. We would definitely recommend Freas Photography to anyone. -

Mike was absolutely amazing! It's been two months since our wedding and when I see family and friends and we talk about the wedding they all bring up Mike and how highly they thought of him as a photographer and as a person. He was able to capture so many moments and memories instead of just standard, posed photographs. One of my favorite things about Mike was that he suggested that my now husband and I write each other letters to read immediately after the ceremony. We were able to sneak away and have a few private minutes together and the photographs from this mean so much to us because it was such a special moment right after we were married. He thought of the small things, treated us with respect, was amazing with our sassy flower girl and gave us the most beautiful, creative, sentimental photographs. I can't recommend Mike and Freas Photography enough! -

Long after the food is cleaned away and the music has faded, the photos will remain to tell the story. Mike was a fantastic professional and understood our quirky sense of humor and knew exactly how to get our personality to show in all our pictures. Everyone who has seen our photos has commented on the vibrancy of the colors and the unique perspective. That had drawn us to Mike originally when we started researching who to use. Upon our first meeting we immediately knew he was our guy. Easy to talk to, easy to work with. He was always available to talk about any details or ideas surrounding our pictures.
Our plan was the throw the party of the century and based on all the photo evidence it looks like we succeeded! Thank you, Mike, for making the great memories into some amazingly high quality mementos for us to cherish for years to come. -

Mike Freas was excellent to work with! On the day of my wedding I did not have to worry about a thing which is exactly what I wanted. Before my wedding date we talked about lighting and helped me pick out some up lighting that def was a game changer to my reception. His work is GREAT! I recommend Mike hands down :) -

We absolutely loved working with Micheal! He is amazing at his craft. He truly captured our personalities. I work in the wedding industry as a planner and I can say he was extremely professional, fun, organized, and creative. He made the day fun and relaxed. We were so happy when we received our pictures! They were perfect!
We highly recommend him for your wedding day.

Mike did an amazing job shooting our wedding! He truly captured how happy we both were that day and did a great job in including our dog in the photographs which was important to us. He was very easy to work with and was fast with sending the edited photos from out wedding. I highly recommend him for a photographer!-

My now fiancé hired Mike for a surprise proposal shoot in Key West! Everything was perfectly coordinated, and I had no idea there was photographer shooting photos just behind the bushes while we were on the beach. Then we had an amazing photo shoot and our happiness and excitement is captured in a variety of shots with the beautiful backdrop at Fort Zachary Taylor State Park. We received our edited images so quickly as promised and I love them! -

I cannot keep count of how many times someone has told me that our photos are the best wedding photos they've ever seen. Just yesterday I was looking at the photos in a public place, and a complete stranger said, "Those are the best wedding photos I've ever seen. Seriously, I feel like I have to say that to everyone, but I really mean it this time."
My husband and I had a private ceremony in Key West with no family or friends, so we were nervous about having a photographer be the only person with us on our special day. Mike was the best! There were no awkward moments. It was like hanging out with an old friend who happens to be an amazing photographer.
Mike went above and beyond to help secure the ceremony location, find an officiant, and find great locations for photos. He took our ideas and made them better than we imagined.
One of the things that I love the most is that he doesn't edit the photos to make you look prettier or thinner. He uses light and angles to capture you at your best. You look like the best version of yourself, not like you were photographed with a filter. #NoFilterNeeded
The price was more than fair considering the quality of the photos. The only problem I have is trying to decide which photos to hang in our house! They are all so good!
If you are thinking about booking Freas Photography for your wedding, engagement photos, or any other event-- do yourself a favor and do it now. If he's not available on your date, you should change the date! He's that good.-

My daughter used Mike Freas for her May 5th Key West wedding at the Audubon house. Mike was very organized and really went all out to capture the ceremony and reception despite heavy rains during portions of the reception! Based on the fantastic photos that he got of their first dance in the rain, I can’t wait to see the rest of the photographs. -

Where do I even begin with Mike?!
He is extremely professional and takes his work very seriously. You can see the passion that he has for photography while he is photographing your wedding. His energy is contagious, guests LOVE him, and he is so easy to work with. All of our photo requests were met and our engagement photos alone were spectacular! We can not thank Mike enough for the fantastic job he did at our wedding. He is very organized, responsive, and always ready for an adventure for the best pictures! Even if that means leaving the party for a bit to take a boat ride for the best sunset pictures we might ever see.
5 out of 5 for this guy, for sure!!
Thanks again, Mike!

Hiring Mike to shoot our wedding on January 19, 2018 was the best decision I could have made! With our wedding plans changing several times due to Hurricane Irma, Mike not only was accommodating but went above and beyond to make our day one to remember! He is the reason our wedding day was flawless. He takes pride in his work, loves his job and is one of the best photographers I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much! -

Creative. Genius. Best way I can explain Mike. So much I would love to say but I'll keep it precise. I was recommended to Mike through my Catering Manager. I emailed Mike to get information, and immediately got a response. Great first impression. Over the months leading up to Mike, I would ask Mike his opinion on certain things as my husband and I were doing destination so had no idea about anything Key West. I received nothing but true honesty from Mike and that is something I appreciate so much in a person. We grew a friendship and I truly enjoyed working with Mike and his team. The vision Mike has is unlike anyone else and aside from the venue, photography was the most important. Mike well exceeded our expectations. You would be silly not to choose him for your special day. Miss you already, Mike!! -

Michael is amazing! Even though our wedding venue was destroyed during hurricane Irma, Michael made every effort to still accommodate us and travelled to Fort Lauderdale to shoot our wedding.
Michael was energetic, our guest loved him and the photos he took were AMAZING! I really cannot say enough good things about him. I would highly recommend Michael Freas Photography. -

Mike was an amazing photographer to work with for my wedding! He does an excellent job of finding out what the vision is for the wedding ahead of time and builds the day from there. On the day of my wedding he was creative, energetic and listening to ideas while proposing his own to make sure he captured all the moments I wanted. He was open to what myself and my husband were asking for and knew exactly what direction to take during the entire day. Mike was completely professional, fun and produced amazing photographs that I will be able to enjoy for years to come from our very special day. Thank you so much for creating life out of our memories! -

We were referred to Mike by a friend of ours and within seconds of meeting him, I felt like we had known him for years! He is an amazing photographer, and his work illustrates just that. He gets to know you as a couple and is able to easily incorporate your personalities into your engagement session and especially on your wedding day. He captured all the beautiful moments that made our day so special and now Jake and I and our family and friends will get to reminisce with the photos for the rest of our lives. I would recommend Mike to anyone who wants someone that truly cares about capturing your day the way you have always pictured it. We became fast friends and it shines through in all of his photos. We will definitely be using Freas Photography for future family photo-shoots! He is the best in the Florida Keys. You will be so pleased if you are lucky enough to book him for your special day! Jake and I cannot thank him enough :) We will be forever grateful.-

We had the best experience with Mike! Our wedding was local for us but a destination for Mike and he spent countless hours researching the city before hand, and he flew in a day early to look at other locations. He worked well with the wedding party and was able to get us to relax and smile. -

Mike was PHENOMINAL! I honestly don't know what we would have done without him, he helped out with so much that wasn't even in his job description. My husband and I aren't big on pictures, but Mike made us feel extremely comfortable and at ease the entire day. He fits in as part of the crew/family and makes the entire experience fun and relaxed. All of our family and friends absolutely adored him and we even have friends that are wanting to bring him to Dallas for their wedding! Our photographs came out perfect; they are absolutely magical and captured everything that we asked for. If you are still unsure, follow his page on IG and Facebook, and prepare to have your mind blown! Thanks Mike! -

Having Mike photograph our wedding was like having a friend/relative with us the whole day. He was incredibly energetic and had an amazing vision for the entire day. He was friendly and accommodating to our guests. The end result far exceeded our expectations. Our gallery was beyond anything could have hoped for and/or seen from another wedding. The pictures look like they belong in a magazine. The entire experience from the first phone call to the last snap was fantastic! If you are getting married in Key West, Mike Freas is the only photographer you should contact! -

Mike was absolutely the most fun, pleasant and talented person we have ever worked with. We had an elopement planned in May, and had to change our wedding location to the keys last minute. So we were scrambling to find vendors last minute. As in, 1 month last minute. We live 8 hours away from the Keys and had zero idea about good areas for ceremony, other vendors and officiant, With zero time to meet before hand we would've had to go off of just reviews. Not only did he go above and beyond by helping me completely with that (which by the way LOVED out officiant and location) he also did a custom package for us, which fit our budget completely. He even met with us the day before when we got down there, spent on his own time showing us around helping us pick a ceremony spot, even picked me up the next day from our hotel way across town, so my fiance wouldnt see me before the wedding. He was absolutely hilarious and made us so comfortable instantly, which if you've ever had a photographer that made you feel awkward.. worst situation ever. He even gave us extra time just so we could get the sunset, along with driving us around town for picture. He is just phenomenal and made our day so enjoyable. He went above and beyond his agreements and we couldn't have possibly been more happier. -

There are pictures that capture a moment, and then there are pictures that go beyond that and capture a feeling. Mike Freas is that kind of photographer- the one you cross your fingers, pray to God, and wish upon a star for because you are counting on him to be able to relive the once in a lifetime experiences like a proposal or a wedding. Mike delivers the kind of photos that take you back to that magic, that surreal I can't believe he picked me love him to the ends of the earth feeling! Every time I walk by a framed proposal photo in our home or peruse our gallery on our wedding website, my heart skips a beat. Mike gets the moments you want and the ones you never would have thought of. I truly can't thank him enough; Alex and I loved our photos so much we used one for our save the date, one for our engagement party thank you cards, a wide range on display at our engagement party, and of course, collected them all into a stunning album. If you want quality, creative, and natural feeling photos and a personalized, thoughtful, and professional experience, Mike Freas is your guy! -

Sometimes in life you get lucky in love, you find your soulmate and vow to spend your life together. Finding someone to capture your love and special day means, you have to find your soul-photographer. I knew Mike was the one five minutes after we met. He is not only an artist and creative genius. He is smart and witty and so down to earth, you feel like he's family. This extraordinary talent shows in each one of his beautiful photos. Our day at the Hemingway Home was truly epic. Each minute, Mike was comforting and sweet and all the while you see his mind working, wheels turning, to create a vivid masterpiece only he could create. Mike, there aren't enough words to say how grateful we are to have met you. Your professionalism and unique approach to every detail on our wedding day, shines bright in every capture. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You have a taken a our moment and froze it in time. We will never forget you.

Advice for future couples:
1. Read other reviews. Know that if you are just looking for a simple photographer to run around and point a camera, Mike probably is not the right photographer for you. He is really like having a wedding coordinator and photographer in one-- ie, this is not his first rodeo, so listen to his advice. He really is after the best interest for his clients. Further, he goes way above his expected job description (ie photographer). The weather was very precarious and within moments of having to walk down the aisle the wedding coordinator informed me that there was 100% chance of rain, the Dj and caterer could not set up, table cloths were being blown off the tables etc and I was just like OK? what do you want me to do about it? Mike looked at the radar and re-assured me 100 times that the rain was not going to impact anything-- and it didn't. I have no idea who's idea it was to move the reception to another part of the venue, but I turned around and the next thing I saw was Mike rolling tables into the reception area-- Again, this guy is not just a photographer, he's literally a rock star in the wedding industry. Simply go with him just for the assurance of knowing that he will go up and beyond to make sure your day turns out truly wonderful.
2. Allow him to take the reins. Again, listen to his advice, and run with it. He will make your day exactly the way you envision it.
3. Don't be afraid to bother him about planning details. He is literally going to be with you the entire day, he needs to know everything you have planned. We've spent hours on the phone leading up to the wedding, so I think he really wants to connect with his clients to make sure he captures their day exactly the way they want it, and I think he has fun and actually enjoys helping couples plan their day. -

Words fail when trying to describe the extreme talents and abilities of Mike Freas and Freas Photography. Not only was he professional and punctual, but Mike also took the time to get to know us personally. He wanted the "whole story", not just the Big Day details, in order to create a unique and sincere tribute to both our wedding and our relationship overall. The moments that were captured are pricesless and we look forward to having Freas Photography capture other big moments in our lives throughout our future! -

I've had the opportunity to work with Mike on multiple weddings, and I cannot begin to express how professional and creative he is with all of his clients! As a wedding planner, I appreciate how involved he is throughout the entire planning process. Mike is always in constant communication with his couples to ensure he captures their special day perfectly. One thing I've noticed, and really like about Mike, is that he always gets to know his couples and forms lifelong friendships along the way. -

Hands down, Mike is one of the best wedding photographers in Key West. I would recommend him to anyone. My husband and I were referred to Mike through our wedding planner and we couldn't have been happier. His passion for his craft was clear throughout the day. He and his partner Jess captured our day perfectly without being intrusive. Their presence complemented our intimate beach wedding. Throughout the planning process, Mike was responsive and spent time getting to know us. Overall a phenomenal experience! -

My fiance hired Mike back in August to come along on a boat ride with us, posing as a travel photographer, for a surprise engagement shoot. Not only did Mike do an excellent job at playing along with the surprise, he captured the most unbelievable pictures of the event. From the moment we got on the boat to right when I said "Yes", Mike was hiding behind us capturing every second. Afterwards, we did an entire engagement shoot on the island, followed by some dolphin watching where Mike got some awesome shots for us! Throughout the entire day Mike was so professional, polite, and fun! You can tell that he is truly a professional at what he does and has such a passion for photography, which shows in every single one of his pictures. He helped to make our day one that we will never forget. Months later, we still have people telling us how amazing our photos are! If you are looking for a photographer in Key West, look no further. You will not regret hiring Freas Photography!! -

I LOVE MY PHOTOS!!!! Mike and Aramis took the most fun, yet professional photographs of our wedding. He dedicated extra time to make sure our day was even better than we anticipated and then him and Aramis captured it all! It's apparent that these guys love what they do and go above and beyond to have nothing less than satisfied clients. Words cannot describe the quality of his photos and fun and dedicated only begin to describe his personality. He volunteered extra time to make sure our needs were met and quickly became a part of our wedding. After the wedding our friends and family were talking about how great they thought Mike and Aramis were and couldn't wait to see the photos. Note that I say Mike and Aramis (not our photographers) because they were more than just our photographers for the day and became a part of our friends and family immediately. My husband and I could not be more satisfied with our wedding photos and Mike's help organizing our special day!!! -

Mike is great! Our engagement photos turned out exactly like we wanted. He listen to all of our ideas and used his own creative spin on them to take amazing pictures. I can't wait for him to shoot our wedding! -

Mike Freas is straight forward and down to earth. He is very detailed and experienced and will accommodate any kind of style that you want to go for. We asked for very out of the box engagement shoot and he came through and then some. He is very much in tough with what looks good, how to frame a photo, and how to capture the beauty of the keys. I highly recommend Mike an -

Mike did an amazing job as our wedding photographer. He was incredibly responsive and professional leading up to our wedding day - he took the time to meet and talk with us several times to ensure he captured the day as we wanted. Our pictures turned out amazing and our guests raved at how professional and enthusiastic Mike was at our wedding! He captured the day perfectly and captured all the moments we requested and more! We couldn't be happier with our photos and would recommend Mike to everyone. He went above and beyond what was expected! -

Mike was completely amazing to work with. He is so enthusiastic, professional, and creative; and he really does capture such beautiful candid moments throughout the entire day - and he became part of the family! From the first moment we spoke with Mike, he made us feel completely comfortable and it was obvious that he cared deeply about capturing shots that would be unique to us. If you want someone to capture creative, beautiful, and FUN shots on your special day, Mike Freas is your guy!

We absolutely loved working with Mike for our wedding day pictures. Mike was great in the lead up to the wedding- he worked to get an understanding of what we liked and didn't like and listened to it. He also looked to get the whole picture of the day- whether it was food, scenery, or little things he told a story with all the pictures he took. A month later, I am grateful to have those memories! Mike's pictures were available and easy to purchase using his suggested contact or on our own as well. Couldn't say enough about Mike Freas and his great work! -

Just look at my photos! Super professional, on time, fun, and thoughtful. Mike understood what we wanted and delivered so much more! We were just letting him do what he thought was a good idea, and we couldn't be happier with the way our wedding photos turned out. Mike has great vision (not cheesy) and kindly puts you into those perfect moments that he wants to capture- and we couldn't be more impressed (and I hope we weren't too hard to wrangle). We knew he was perfect from our engagement shoot last year when he took candid shots of my Fiance's Bronco, that blew our minds and we knew he was "the ONE!" Thank you! -

Oh Mike....what can we say about Mike that everyone hasn't already said? He is outstanding! We had the best time with him since the day we met. It was like love at first sight hahahaha His personality really took us both in and we were happy with every step to this process. He was organized and even though my family was NOT, he made it work. He definitely kept us calm and laughing throughout. We are so excited to see the pictures. Armies (his assistant) was also super cool and worked well with us. He doesn't know this yet but we're definitely coming down for our anniversary for our "around the town" shots that we weren't able to fit in on wedding day. Maybe by that time there will be a baby on the way.....We would 100% without a doubt recommend Mike for any wedding or event. -

If I could give more stars, I would. Mike is the most talented, dedicated and creative photographer I've met. He utilized the most recent technology (a drone!!!!) as well as his impeccable artistic eye to capture every detail of our wedding. Love, love, love him!!! -

We had family photos done on Sunset Key Florida. The photos are beautiful and the time spent doing the session was priceless. Great photographer. Have already referred him to others. -

Mike Freas was very professional, kind, and easy to work with. We emailed and spoke on the phone several times before our wedding ceremony, which made it easy on the day of the ceremony. We all knew what to expect.
I highly recommend Foto by Freas. -
