Michael was invaluable to me during my wedding planning process. He was so helpful throughout and came up with a seamless timeline that we used for my wedding last week (12/12/23). I seriously could not have done it without him. We loved having him as a part of the team! We got our sneak peek photos back in record time and they are seriously stunning. I will recommend him to anyone I know !! -

If you are looking for the most accurate review about Michael, look no further. This man is incredible! He is professional, super responsive, very accommodating, hard working, and amazing at what he does. The day of our wedding he worked every second making sure that me and the rest of the party knew exactly what to do and where to be. He guided us the entire way, positioning us in the best possible spot each and every time. He was so sweet and nice even when the wedding party can be a bit chaotic! Michael took the most incredible pictures I have ever seen and I am absolutely in love with every single shot! He is definitely the man for the job, having him as your photographer will melt all your worries away.
Thank you Michael for over delivering, you made the day perfect for us and now we will have the most amazing photos of our wedding for the rest of our life! ❤️ -

Michael truly exceeded our expectations!!! He is wonderful!! ✨ Not only is he a very talented photographer but he is also a genuinely lovely person and will be sure to go above and beyond.
Going into our engagement shoot, my husband and I were both a little nervous. From the moment we met Michael, both of us immediately felt at ease and he helped build our confidence for the big day!
We got married at bakers cay resort in key largo and Micheal knew it very well—he even helped us get the room with the best view of ceremony on hammock beach! He brought a nice sense of calm to the day, something as a type A bride I needed very much!! He was organized, methodical and kept the timeline to perfection (something he also helped curate and gave some very helpful suggestions).
We quickly got a series of “sneak peaks” and they are AMAZING! I can’t wait to see more!!
I would hire Micheal a thousand times over!! And will be looking for any excuse to do just that! -

My husband and I LOVED having Michael as our wedding photographer. We highly recommend booking him, he made the entire process a seamless and simple one! He is very intentional with his communication and planning. Since our wedding was a destination, we had several communication exchanges leading up to the big day. He’d ask me questions pertaining to the location, lighting, any family dynamics he might need to know and he’d ask questions to ensure his vision was ultimately what I was looking for. I really appreciated his attention to detail and responsiveness. He knew what to anticipate and the important questions to ask!! He is reliable and an absolute delight to work with as well :)
You will not regret choosing Michael Karolemeas as your photographer!!! -

Going with Michael as our photographer was the best decision we made. From the very start he was such a pleasure, extremely knowledgeable, helpful and very accommodating. He always answered me promptly and was very professional. The day of the wedding he made us feel comfortable and at ease and very helpful with schedule of the day, which made the day flawless. He was able to capture such genuine moments of us together that came out so beautiful. It was truly such a wonderful experience from beginning to end, and his pictures come out absolutely amazing! You can tell he has a passion for what he does. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture the best day of our lives! Highly recommend! -

Michael was the best person we worked with though our entire wedding experience. Very professional, was very helpful but not pushy. I also love his style of photography - as this is the main reason why we booked him, and the final product did not disappoint! -

My husband and I got married at Dream Bay Resort a few weeks ago, and Michael was incredible! He was efficient in making sure we got all of the pictures we wanted, all while remaining smooth and thoughtful! You can really tell that he cares about the couples he works with, and the pictures are breathtaking! I couldn’t recommend anyone more! -

My husband and I got married down in the Florida Keys this last April. It was beautiful and I'm so glad we were able to work with Michael to help capture the beauty of it all.
My husband and I are not from the area, and Michael helped to make sure our wedding went off without a hitch. He always answered any questions I had during the months before the wedding and made sure we knew the estimated timings of how he would be taking photographs during it. He was very laid-back, while being professional, and made it fun and relaxing the entire time.
We were able to get a sneak peak of the photos about a week after our wedding and it took about 3 months to get the full gallery. My husband and I loved looking through the photos and seeing all the fun we had and how gorgeous the photos turned out. He made sure to capture the real us and how amazing the day was with all our friends and family.
I would recommend Michael to anyone who is looking for a photographer who will work with you, even if you live states away, and make taking pictures easy and fun while getting beautiful results. -

Wedding Photographer
Michael was AMAZING!! I highly recommend him. From the beginning of contacting Michael he was always quick to respond. On wedding day he knew what to do, what to shoot without me even asking. I am very happy with my photos so far. He was extremely efficient and helpful. All family members & friends were very impressed by him, he truly was the best photographer I could’ve asked for.
I plan to use him again in future hopefully for a family shoot :) -

Really Thoughtful, Caring Wedding Photography (That Happens to Look Amazing, Too)
Can't recommend Michael, or his partner Jannette, enough for your wedding photography! Really and truly, they went above and beyond any expectation we'd ever had for our wedding photos--and not just because the photos were more gorgeous than we'd imagined (if you're like me and you don't feel particularly photogenic, they have a crazy gift for making you feel comfortable in front of the camera), but because they were so kind and thoughtful. Michael did a great job coordinating our wedding party during group photos (not an easy job with our group! We had a joint wedding party instead of separate sides, and Michael made sure we got all of the photo combinations we'd wanted), and he even played bouncer a little bit to keep people from photobombing at our semi-public ceremony venue.
What really touched me was how Michael thought of EVERYTHING when it came down to the details. I had a few family mementos, and he incorporated all of them into our wedding details photography; one of my favorite photos from the whole day is one where he thought to lay my grandfather's wedding ring on our invitation so that it circled the date. Just such a sweet thing to do. It genuinely felt like every detail from the day, no matter how small, was captured and made to feel beautiful and important and celebrated. It also really struck us how intuitive Michael was with capturing those little moments while still giving you space to feel really emotionally in-the-moment. As someone who doesn't take a lot of photos, I was worried this aspect of the day might feel a little overwhelming or exhausting, but Michael did a great job being present and taking SO many fun and touching photos, but also gave my partner and I space to really experience quiet moments to ourselves.
Seriously could go on and on, but the long and short of it is that Michael and Jannette were a caring and calming presence at our wedding. When everything feels hectic day-of, and you're being tugged in a million logistical directions at once, they have a knack for making you feel steady and in-the-moment. Couldn't imagine our wedding without them!! -

Kimbrough Wedding
When we were looking for photographers we were looking for someone who was able to see and capture our love on camera while keeping us comfortable. Michael was that and so much more, not only did he help with the organization of our party and keeping us on schedule but he arrived early to determine where the best lighting was for that day. He was very keen on who and what we wanted to capture and he was gentle and kind with all of our guests. My husband, who typically doesn’t like taking pictures is now a fan of photoshoots because of Michael. His beautiful work is now memories we will cherish forever❤️ -

Wonderful, kind, knowledgable photographer!
We are so happy with our wedding photos!! When I started looking for a photographer for our destination wedding at Isla Bella in the FL Keys, I had originally reached out to Jannette De Llanos photography because she was on my venue's list of recommended vendors. Michael reached out to me because he has shot for Jannette for years, but recently started his own business. We are so grateful we hired Michael. He was professional, patient and incredibly knowledgable. Not only did he know our venue like the back of his hand, he knew when to shoot at which parts of the property at different times of day to get the best natural light. He took charge of the flow of our couples/family photoshoot, but wasn't pushy. He was incredibly quick to share our "sneak peek" photos, and every shot is amazing. He is also very communicative. We highly recommend Michael! -

The best photographer for your big day!
It was amazing to work with Michael at my wedding day. He knew our venue and the regular flow at the venue the most among all the vendors we hired. He is very attentive to the weather, which is super important in FL. He came 2hrs early because there was chance of rain later at the day, so we did not miss single shot we wanted to take. His photos are great, especially I like color and the vibe from the photo. He is fun and easy to work with, very fast at answering any of your question, easy to discuss what to do at the wedding day. I would LOVE to recommend him to other couples who are looking for photographer in FL, especially florida keys area. Also, I would love to work with him for different occasion (of course not another wedding for me hahaha) :) He is the best! Don't hesitate to contact him. You will love him! -
