The Genuine Article
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Michael. He is professional, reliable, responsive... and just truly went above and beyond for our wedding. Michael even came to our lake house after the wedding to take photos with our family. He communicated every step of the way and was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We couldn’t be happier with Michael and we are overwhelmingly pleased with our photos! We will use Michael for any photos we need in the future. We are so very happy that we selected Michael to capture our special day. He is FABULOUS! -

To anyone needing pictures for any reason, let me try to tell you why Michael should be the first person you call. From the moment I first contacted Michael he was prompt in responding (something I appreciated more than he will ever understand), he remained in contact from the time we hired him to the day of our wedding to ensure he had a thorough understanding of my vision and to ensure he knew the most important things I wanted captured. I asked for our ceremony to be available on livestream for our friends and family who couldn’t attend in person, something he had not done before, but he took it upon himself to ask others how he could make this happen for us because he knew how important it was to us. When he arrived at Mountain Lake he came to my room, introduced himself and immediately got to work capturing the intimate moments I was fortunate enough to share with my daughters and my mom while we were getting ready for my special day!! He was kind, funny, engaging, spontaneous and most importantly he made certain I was completely at ease, he calmed me down more than once and constantly reassured me everything was going to be perfect…even during the moments I wasn’t feeling as confident as he was, his calm demeanor and caring heart put my worried mind at total ease!! He was a true godsend and I knew we had made the perfect choice in hiring him to be the one to capture for all eternity our wedding day!!
Michael, I don’t know what I would have done without you!! You will FOREVER be my first choice when I want a special event captured on camera!! Thank you seems grossly inadequate considering how far above and beyond you went for my husband Gregg and me but unfortunately those are the only words I have!! I pray God richly blesses you and you find favor in His eyes for being not only an amazing photographer but a genuinely amazing person!! Much love to you my friend…you truly are the greatest!! -

We had so much fun working with Michael, who really went out of his way to spend extra time at our sunset shoot, at the rehearsal, and before the ceremony! The photos are beautiful, and we will treasure them forever! -

Debra B. Sent on 11/05/2020The best photographer!
Michael was the first vendor I booked after I booked our venue. He’s always available to talk to and gave us gorgeous engagement pictures as well as wedding pictures. We got about 500 engagement pictures, 500 rehearsal pictures and 2,000 wedding pictures! The teasers he posts on Instagram and Facebook are absolutely AMAZING! He’s an amazing human being and he made my husband and I feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Thank you Michael for everything! It was such a pleasure working with you 💕 -

Very personable, went above and beyond and quick turnaroud!
Michael came to us a reference from the officiant we found on Wedding Wire. After trying to get married three times, my husband and I decided to have a small intimate wedding. Unknowingly my best friend contacted my officiant who highly recommended Michael and boy did he go above and beyond. Michael extensively spoke with my best friend to see what type of flavor she thought the wedding pictures should be and when she became sick and was not able to make it to the wedding, Michael went above and beyond by picking up a flower bouquet for our wedding. He did his best to work with the family under the unique pandemic restrictions and provided pictures immediately. I highly recommend Michael if you want someone to help tell the story of your family, friends and loved ones through his pictures. Thank You Michael for going above and beyond and your very polite demeanor!!! -

My husband and I couldn’t be more happy that we selected Photographic Dreams to capture our wedding! Michael went above and beyond to make sure that he got wonderful pictures of our ceremony, wedding, and wedding parties and he was very patient and thorough throughout the process. He was very prompt in getting our pictures to us following our wedding and even sent us some sample enlarged photos! Highly recommend! -

Katie Sent on 05/26/2019The most beautiful photos I have ever seen
Michael from photographic dreams is the most responsive and amazing photographer I have ever had the pleasure of working with. My daughter had an issue and Michael came back the next day and did evening photos with her and her groom re-dressed. This was going way above any expectations we had with Michael as our photographer. -

Amazing Wedding Photographer
Michael helped make our wedding a day that we will cherish forever! And if that wasnt enough, we didnt get a sunset photo that I had my hopes on, so Michael came out the next day and not only captured amazing sunset photos but also did a whole photo shoot with us! OH, and not to mention, he didnt ask for any kind of payment to come out the next day!!
Our package included our engagement photos and these were so much fun! We felt comfortable and it showed in our amazing photos that now decorate our house.
When it came to the wedding, Michael was down for what ever I wanted. All of our shots capture our love for each other and they will be photos that I can look back on forever to remember the happiest day of my life!
I dont think I will ever be able to use another photographer again!
I HIGHLY recommend Michael of Photographic Dreams! -

Amazing!
Can not say enough about our experience with Michael!! Everything we had hoped for and more! Due to the crammed wedding schedule and the weather, Michael went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure we had the PERFECT pictures we had been looking forward to, coming back the next day. His professionalism and him as a person made for PERFECT wedding memories. Michael made sure to keep in touch from booking (we booked a year in advance) until our wedding day to make sure he knew every little detail. Could not have asked for more!!! If we ever need a photographer again we will absolutely be calling Photographic Dreams!!!! Brides..... lock your date in, you will NOT be disappointed! Michael...... THANK YOU for giving us the amazing pictures we had wished for!! We love you! -

Kelly S. Sent on 02/20/2020Great experience with Michael, friendly and professional!
Michael with Photographic Dreams was excellent to work with. He really wanted our input on our pictures, (even from my extended family, he was very patient), and went above and beyond what I would of expected from a wedding photographer! I have received compliments that my wedding photos are the most beautiful many people have ever seen. -

Deborah D. Sent on 02/20/2020So glad we chose this photographer!!
Michael Keyes of Photographic Dreams took the most beautiful photos of my daughter's wedding! He captured the spirit and feeling of the day. The wedding photos, along with the portraits taken the following day at Mountain Lake, have made the most remarkable keepsake for both families. -

Brooke Sent on 09/28/2018Michael is the best!! He is SO accommodating, and really goes the extra mile for the perfect shot! In my first photo I uploaded, he was IN the middle of a bush. His photography is astounding and I'm so excited to get all of our shots back! He photographed us at Four Fillies Lodge in Peterstown, WV, and I think he had as much fun as we did!! I HIGHLY recommend Michael for ANY photography needs!!

Rainbow Sent on 05/23/2018Michael is the only part of the first wedding that I wanted to carry over into my second wedding. He is so creative! The caliber of his work is on par with photographers that charge at least double what he charges. I called him several times before the wedding and he was full of questions about the venue and the local flavor. He brought props for photos and had put some thought into how to get the shots he wanted. I'm glad we brought him in for the rehearsal too! He did such a great job last time. I can't wait to see the album included with the larger package I purchased this time!!

Travis Sent on 07/09/2018As an LGBTQ couple, it can be difficult to find an accommodating vendor who will be open and professional; Micheal was both. He went out of his way to be available and considerate of our needs. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer. The photos were excellent and we received the photos in a timely manner. We received so many photos, it is hard to pick a favorite.
