  Best photographer ever!

  One of the most important things on our wedding day was having an amazing photographer. Michael went so far above our expectations and captured the most breathtaking photos! Our wedding photos were even more than I ever could have imagined. Michael was so on top of his game that I received many compliments from my guests for his creativity and skill. Thank you, Michael, for capturing our day perfectly!

  My fiancé and I chose Michael to shoot our engagement photos this past October. Michael met with us over coffee beforehand to let us know what to expect and all of the important details regarding the shoot. He was incredibly easy to work with and flexible with our budget. He picked the perfect outdoor location for our shoot and knew all of the good places to go. Michael made my fiancé and I feel very comfortable and not awkward at all (which was my biggest worry). We got our photos back just a few short weeks later and they turned out beautifully! The only reason we aren't having him shoot our wedding is because we have a friend back in Washington who will be our photographer, however, I can't recommend Michael enough! He is talented, incredibly friendly, and an amazing photographer!

  You never realize how integral the wedding photographer is until you're already through the day, and then even more so once you have received the photos of the biggest day of your life. We had a meeting with Michael within a week or two of hiring him where he just took time to get to know us and details of our relationship, like where we met, how long we had been together, our favorite things, etc. Michael uses this time of getting to know you to inspire the very creativity and authenticity he is known for. From the first photo of our engagement session to the last photo of our wedding, Michael made every moment relaxing and fun. Obviously wedding days can be extremely stressful but that's where Michael's expertise shines through in a way few people think of for their wedding day. Michael orchestrated our wedding day with an itinerary a week ahead of time. It made for such an effortless day. Upon receiving our photos, we floored by how incredible they turned out. Truthfully, we expected nothing less from Michael and it's obviously easy to be bias, but even a friend of ours who got to see them said very genuinely "every single one of these looks like it came straight off of Pinterest". The quality reminded of us of why it was such an important decision for us to choose Michael for our wedding day. His professionalism, creativity, perfectionist attitude, attention to detail and desire to immortalize the essence of every moment in a photo on our big day made it worth every penny and receiving the pictures was just a reminder that we made the right decision in choosing Michael.

  Michael was amazing!!! He went above and beyond our expectations and we are IN LOVE with our pictures, they're perfect!! He was very professional, prompt with emails, and great to work with. He found all of our "hot" spots to make our pictures beautiful, unique and creative. We never had to worry once about our pictures throughout the whole planning process, we knew we could trust his talent and instincts. We have received numerous compliments on our engagement and wedding photos. We would highly recommend Michael to capture all of your special moments, we are so happy we did!

  Mike is, no doubt, one of the best photographers in the area. He is creative, fun, professional, and timely. My fiancé was going to school in Oregon during our engagement and when we explained to Mike our situation he threw out the idea to fly out to Oregon in October 2015 to take our engagement pictures. Taking pictures in Oregon's forests and on the Oregon coast is alone an amazing scenery, but with Mike's creative eye and talent he did an absolutely incredible job. Mike was also great to work with. He gave great ideas and insightful. Our wedding was June 4th, 2016. We had an outdoor ceremony outside of Sioux Falls. Mike did an amazing job capturing the laughter, love, and happiness. From getting ready to our first dance to our gorgeous sunset session I don't think there was a moment Mike didn't capture. He also did a great job at getting candid pictures of our bridal party and guests, which we greatly appreciate. We are 100% happy with how our pictures turned out and recommend Mike to anybody!

  Michael was awesome to work with. He is super creative, artistic, and professional. Not to mention he is also laid-back, super easy to get along with, and fun go be around. His photography skills are top-knotch, and he was a blast to work with on our wedding day. Not to mention, he flew out to Oregon to take our engagement pictures! We could not be more pleased with how our pictures turned out, and recommend him to anybody who is engaged and searching for a photographer.

  He is willing to work with you within his packages. We didn't want some things, but wanted others, and he was willing to work with us. His style is amazing, very professional for engagements and during the wedding day. He made us feel so comfortable, and I will definitely be using him for future photo shoots.

  My husband and I had originally planned for an October wedding and booking Michael was the first thing we did. After several family events we decided to move our wedding up. We still wanted to keep Michael since photos were most important to us. He was super flexible, switching his bookings date to 7 months prior and was invaluable in building our timeline of the day. Our pictures were better than we imagined and were the only part of the wedding we "kept". It's been almost 6 months and I still find myself staring at them because they are just so dang beautiful!!

  Mike did an amazing job as the photographer of our wedding. He is incredibly thoughtful, genuine, and observant. His photos are incredibly beautiful, artistic, and candid. Professionally speaking, he was very prompt and flexible. I would absolutely recommend him to all my friends, not only as a wedding photographer, but also for all kind of occasions! If we lived closer to Sioux Falls, we would use him for all our photography needs. Thanks for everything, Mike!!

  Michael was AMAZING! I would not have asked or wished for a better photographer. He was so easy to work with, super flexible, and personable and professional. As photographers ourselves, it was hard to choose a wedding photographer and Michael surpassed our expectations. He worked with exactly what we wanted and captured our special day.

  Michael is an amazing photographer. He is willing to work with you and makes sure the day is about the couple. I had the opportunity to book him for the day and I am so glad I did! I can't wait to see the pictures in a couple of weeks! I would would definitely recommend him without a second thought!
