Photographing what makes your relationship so special is all about getting to know who you are as a couple. We’ll have a complimentary video consultation to discuss how you reached this exciting point in your lives and how you envision celebrating your future together.
I will be with you every step of the way. We will explore who you are as a couple, and we will build your wedding day around the photography, versus the photography around your day
This is the fun part! At this point, we’ve had so many interactions planning together and chatting over social media that we’ll be more than prepared for your exciting wedding in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I’ll be ready to act as a guide at the venue or on your hike, on-hand to capture the wedding based on your vision.”
After editing and curating a striking collection of photos that represent the highlights of your wedding day, I make them all available to you online so that you can download them, and have them printed however you like from one gallery and one click.
In short: eloping in the North Carolina mountains is a great way to keep stress low while customizing the day exactly as you like it. Its an experience set in the beautiful Blue Ridge or Smoky Mountains, with one-of-a-kind pictures they inspire.

We worked with Michael for our engagement shoot and wedding day, and he exceeded our expectations with our photos! We had to postpone our wedding date due to covid and he was very flexible and understanding of our change. When wedding day came around, Michael made photo-taking fun and stress-free. He’s an incredibly talented photographer, who doesn’t settle for posed pictures. He makes a point of getting to know the couples he works with, so he can better understand how to capture their special moments. He’s a storytelling photographer, and it definitely showed in the final product. We can’t recommend Michael enough, so if you need a photographer for your special day…look no further!
If you want a typical wedding photographer, he's NOT your guy. If you want someone who takes in every aspect of your day, carefully taking time to think about where the best shot is going to be, helping you with every step in planning, and who is seriously dedicated to his craft (and his clients) then he is DEFINITELY your guy. His work is ART. He fits in to the crowd, chatting with each guest to make them all feel comfortable and just like he's part of the day. We spent a year and a half planning and almost a full year of multiple postponements and he was with us every step of the way. When we finally saw each other on the big day, he was just as excited as I was. It's been 2 weeks and we just got our gallery and whew, it's amazing! If you're still considering who to use, stop and book the dude ASAP.
Leave your details and I will get back to you within 24 hours to schedule our one-on-one consultation. I’m looking forward to meeting you!
