Blake C. Sent on 10/27/2022Michel is an absolute professional
I contacted Michel for a surprise engagement photo shoot. Michel gave me a call and asked many questions on what is important to me and what I was looking for. He had amazing recommendations on a great beach location and made everything so easy. His professionalism and experience blew me away. His quality of work is unquestionable and the best sunset photos that I have ever seen.
I HIGHLY recommend Michel not only for his high quality photos and experience but also for his professionalism. -

Michel from King Street Photo was an absolute dream to work with from the very beginning! He was super quick to respond, always polite and professional, and willing to do whatever was necessary to ensure that we had a perfect experience from start to finish. He was very flexible, adding time and services as I asked, and on the day of our elopement, he showed up early, had great ideas for photo locations, and even drove me and my husband around from location to location, since parking on the peninsula is difficult. Our photos were absolutely gorgeous, and Michel made us feel special and important on our big day, which was absolutely huge since we eloped and Michel was therefore the person we interacted with the most on our wedding day. -

Rebecca I. Sent on 12/28/2020Above & Beyond!! Phenomenal Experience!
We found Michel by chance and what a great find! Our original elopement plans for Prague were canceled due to Covid, but everything fell into place for a simple elopement in beautiful Charleston. I have to say that Michel is the one who made it extra special. We had a simple ceremony by the river, then Michel (our one witness!) drove us around historic Charleston to have special pictures in beautiful settings. It was so much fun! I had originally planned to go with the officiant’s photographer, but when she said he would try to up-sell us after the set 25 pics, I reconsidered and found Michel quite by accident. When I saw the brides on his website, I saw happy and relaxed brides. That had to be the photographer’s doing! He also does flat fees, so there were no surprises. He worked hard over the holidays to edit and give us stunning pictures in time for our reception back home. He felt like a good friend throughout and we look forward to touching base again when we go back. We give him the absolute highest recommendation so others can have such a wonderful experience. If we’d known about him before, we would have done engagement pictures with him. -

I was honored to have Michel Berda as my photographer for my engagement and wedding photos. He was super professional and a pleasure to work with and his lighting experience delivered the most flawless photos I have ever seen. I will definitely be working with him again in the future! Extremely impressed!!! :-) -

Michel is a star! His photos speak for themselves, but as a bonus, we loved having engagement photos included in our package, since that helped us all get to know each other prior to the big day. We got to practice! Michel is easy to work with and flexible to the clients’ needs. Communication was easy and timely. As a couple that is not accustomed to being photographed professionally, we appreciated guidance on how to pose, where to look, etc. By the time of the big day itself, the timeline he would work from was written and shared with everyone, and everything happened exactly as planned, which helped us relax a little and know nothing would be forgotten because Michel adheres to his timeline, which is based on his own experience and knowledge of local venues. All added value that you can’t deny. It was a magical day and we have the images to prove it! -

WOW!! Michel is absolutely incredible. He has a vision, and truly helps capture your wedding day incredibly. We wanted a photo outside the fountain at the Westin and boy did he delivered! It was pitch black outside, and we lit up next to the fountain thanks to him. He helped us through our photos before the ceremony, and then together after helped us create different shots. The first look with my Dad was so well planned out, he truly is a master at his craft. Highly recommend Michel if you want the best! -

Recently I won a free Engagement Session with Michel. After speaking to Michel, I knew this would be the perfect opportunity to surprise my fiance by proposing to him, and letting Michel capture the moment and take other engagement photos for us.
Michel was immediately on-board and began helping me plan the location, time, and surprise proposal. On the day of, he arrived early for set up and discretely prepared to capture the moment. We have tons of beautiful pictures to hold on to and because of him, this is a day we will always remember and have great pictures to look back on. -

Jodie B. Sent on 01/09/2020Michel goes above and beyond to capture the defining moments of your life!our life
From the initial phone call with Michel to his followup e-mail to ensure we were satisfied with his services, his customer service could not have been better. He took photos for our corporate event and we were able to arrange the schedule by phone, states away. I can't imagine having a better experience, as he was phenomenal at listening to our needs and providing exactly what we asked for. I would feel very comfortable hiring Michel for any event he would be willing to photograph including celebrations, corporate headshots and or weddings. Most events worth capturing are special in nature and it takes a special person that truly cares about the final product to make the memories all that they can be. Michel Berda is that person and we are so grateful to have worked with him. You will be too! -

Beyond amazing
Michel is a dream to work with! My Fiance and I had our engagement photoshoot planned with a different photographer originally but they had canceled our session for another couple two hours before we had originally scheduled (right after getting my hair done too). My Fiance called photographers all around the area to find someone to take our photos at the last second and Michel stepped up to the plate! within an hour, we were down at Hampton Park ready to go! He practically brought his entire studio with him (huge bags with several lenses, professional lighting, etc..) and gave us whatever we wanted! He made it so easy to pose for photos and gave us our full edited photos TWO DAYS later! What more could you want in a photographer? HIGHLY suggest going with Michel and his team :) -

Hiring Michel was a rest decision. He was very professional and made sure he took photos of everyone and every shot we requested. He was fun to work with and got along great with our guests and wedding party. He had a great attitude and was focused on providing us the best photos, capturing intimate moments and unique shots that only a professional could capture. We highly recommend Michel! -

Incredible memories of a beautiful day!
Michel Berda is a very artistic photographer. He really knows how to perfectly capture the day. He had taken many pictures that I wasn't aware of. My husband stated how he loved the fact that you didn't even know he was there. He did not take away from the ceremony, but I had seen pictures from all around the room. I never noticed him moving around. He contacted my daughter before the wedding and told her to give him a list of pictures that they wanted so the memories of the day will be what they wanted. He showed up that day with so much equipment. He wears a vest and we called the Rambo Photographer. He had everything he needed to make sure the lighting was right for each picture. He created a timeline and stuck to it making the day go smoothly. We got the pictures back in less than 2 weeks and they are amazing. I told my daughter that the photographer is the most important part of all the people hired because that is the person who will capture the day. The day goes so fast and its like a blur. Michel did an fabulous job with the important task he had to capture the day. Thank you Michel for the job you did for my daughter and son in law. You are more than a photographer, you are a true artist. If you want a perfect day, hire Michel! -

Months ahead of the wedding, we worked with Michel to develop the perfect timeline that we ended up sharing with our planner and other vendors. He had great advice and had great suggestions for some shots. On the wedding day, he was super early, scouting out spots for our family photos and bridal shots. He joked with all of us and made the day comfortable. He kept us on schedule and made sure we got all of the shots we wanted. As a type A person, I had a list of pics I wanted and Michel worked hard to make sure all of them were achieved. He was helpful in other way too - the few weeks before the wedding when I was stressed about finding rose petals for a certain picture, Michel offered to pick them up for me so I didn't have to stress. He was able to capture the most amazing pictures- they were everything we could have hoped for! There are so many pictures that I love and want to frame. He was efficient in everything and made sure we got everything we wanted. We would definitely recommend Michel to any couple looking to get exactly what they want out of their wedding photos. -

Michel is very passionate about what he does and it shows from all of his creativity, effort, and positive energy while capturing all special moments throughout an entire day! We are so happy that we chose him to spend the day with us for our wedding at Legare Waring House. He is very professional and timely leading up to the big day in communication about timelines and specific moments that we wanted to remember forever. Michel does a great job of capturing the whole story from getting ready early morning, to guest group pictures at the reception, to send off at the end of the night. Our pictures are stunning and we were so excited to see them before we even got back from our honeymoon! We highly recommend Michel and thank him for his time and all of the sweet memories that we have to look back on because of him! -

Lindsey Sent on 11/25/2018Photos as dreamy as your wedding day!
When I first met Michel I knew he was the photographer I would book for our wedding! I met him at a bridal show where there were many other vendors booths, especially photographers. What stood out about Michel was that he was very personal, outgoing, and honest. He is very upfront with his services and pricing which stood out among others. After deciding to go with Michel he checked in with me several times before my bridal portraits and the wedding. He asked to see my idea board and was very open with my own visions. My bridal portraits were breathtaking and made me even more excited for our wedding day! Michel was more organized than I can even put into words! He runs a tight ship and you should not expect less from a professional! His work is out of this world! All of the family and wedding party loved his presence and were so blown away at our beautiful photos. On top of his amazing work- we got ALL of our photos (hundreds!!) within 18 days of our wedding! His talent, passion and expertise were evident in every single shot! I cannot emphasize how much of a disservice you are doing yourself if you do not choose King Street Photo Weddings to shoot your big day! He is highly recommended!
