Ryan Michaels was such an amazing photographer to have for our engagement & wedding. I never liked being in front of a camera but he made it so FUN. His personality made us comfortable, his style just captured everything we wanted. I love that his wife was also involved as it made having multiple places to be photographed a breeze. The pictures came out beautifully and he made accessing them was so easy, not to mention AFFORDABLE. Absolutely loved working with and will always recommend Ryan Michaels Photography!
We LOVED working with Ryan!

Ryan Michaels Photography was a bit slow at communication, which is understandable since Ryan works a full-time job in addition to running his photography business. However, with a little patience, we were able to work through any delays. The quality of their work was beautiful, and they truly captured all the special moments of our wedding day. Ryan and his wife were friendly and enjoyable to work with, and their services were so comprehensive that we didn't even need to hire a wedding planner. Overall, we were thrilled with Ryan Michaels Photography and highly recommend them to any couple planning their wedding.
Unbelievably Amazing, Highly Recommend

Ryan Michaels Photography was a joy to work with from start to finish. Their communication was always friendly, clear, and transparent, which put us at ease throughout the planning process. The quality of their work was truly exceptional - they captured the beauty of our day with such skill and artistry. We were blown away by their dedication, as they even waded into a river to get a breathtaking photo of us! Ryan and his wife were also incredibly warm and personable with all of our guests. On top of all that, the price we paid for their unbelievably amazing work was an exceptional value. We are so grateful to have found Ryan Michaels Photography to document our special day.

Typically, couples book me several months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about availability! As you can imagine, with that $1,200 complete wedding offer, we book up pretty fast!

I am blessed to have a small team of artists. This is helpful for couples that do want additional photographers or videographers for their big day.

Definitely! All final images will be edited for color and density. Then the high resolution files will be uploaded to your own password protected gallery. Couples may also label favorite images for additional retouching such as skin softening, teeth/eye whitening, object removal, or fun stuff like creative filters. All this is INCLUDED in our $1,200 complete wedding photography offer.

Yes! We offer the BEST value on videography! We shoot with high-qualility video and audio equipment (including drone footage), we provide a trailer that's great for social media or sharing with loved ones, offer your choice of a documentary or cinematic editing style, and do ALL this at a fraction of the costs of others!

I know you're going to be excited to show the world "We did it!!!" So, I love give couples a few sneak peeks within a day or two of the wedding. Then, you’ll be able to view all of your edited photos through a password protected gallery in about 4 weeks.

Unlike other artists, I don't limit you to a predetermined number! After removing obvious stuff (like eyes blinking, or someone walks in front of the camera, etc.) I upload ALL of your photos from your wedding, edited and looking beautiful right out of the gallery!

One of the benefits of having a small team is that you never have to worry about your photographer getting sick or not being able to make it! We have a handful of talented artists, ready to provide exceptional imagery of your wedding day! I will say, in all my years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve never had to cancel a booking.
