Hi!
I'm Michael

I’m the guest you didn’t invite to your wedding, but you’re so glad that I came.

My job is to be on the lookout for all of your important moments.

He’s down to earth and easy going.

Mike is someone you kinda wanna hang out all day with

He has such a unique style and (personality to match!)

You know that moment in a movie that makes you get goosebumps up your arm? That decisive moment that makes your throat tighten up and your eyes start to water?

That emotion is what I want to capture for you.

When two amazing humans are starting their life story together, it is beautiful and honest. And it is my incredible honor to be a small part of this journey with you.

I am based out of Asheville, North Carolina, and travel to destinations around the world.

Lets talk about who you are as a couple and why that matters

Are you the couple who wants moments over posed images that make you feel awkward?

Do you plan to be on the dance floor the entire night going all out?

Do you want someone who will document your day allowing you to enjoy the day and not having to worry about anything but having fun?

WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY PORTFOLIO

ENGAGEMENT PHOTOGRAPHY PORTFOLIO

Fun, Energetic, Emotionally Filled Documentary Wedding Photography

Your wedding photos shouldn't look like everyone else's. A documentary approach means photos that are real and true to you and the day that unfolds. Some call it photojournalism, candid, or modern wedding photography. I am not concerned with fitting into a mold or genre, but instead, my wedding photography style is capturing the energy, emotion and love your day entails

Tell me about your favorite coffee shop, how good/bad of a chef you are, your favorite vacation and anything else that makes you unique as a couple.

Nobody enjoys filling out contact forms, including me.
Drop me a line. No Destination Too Far!
