    The Best Decisions We Made

    We can't say enough good things about Ryan Michaels Photography. Choosing them as our photographers was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. From the start, Ryan made the entire experience feel so easy and stress-free. He was organized, reassuring, and always knew exactly how to guide us without making anything feel forced. On a day that can be so busy and emotional, he helped us slow down and really enjoy the moment. One thing we were a little nervous about was taking photos in public, but Ryan made us feel so comfortable that we completely forgot anyone else was around. It honestly felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. He gave us just enough direction while still letting us be ourselves, which made everything feel so natural. Ryan and his wife were such an incredible team. They worked together effortlessly and captured moments we didn't even realize were happening. They were always in the right place at the right time, but never felt intrusive. Having both of them there made the day run so smoothly. We haven't received our full gallery yet, but we only got married a few weeks ago, so that's completely expected. After seeing how much care and attention they put into every part of the day, we have no doubt our photos are going to be everything we hoped for. We are so grateful they were part of our wedding and would recommend them to anyone looking for photographers who genuinely care about their couples.

    Perfect experience

    Truly perfect experience. From offering his belt when my dad realized he had forgotten his to capturing key moments and being available when we realized we wanted a particular moment captured, Ryan truly went above and beyond.

    5 star photography

    I am so very happy to recommend Ryan Michaels Photography to any bride looking for a photographer. I actually heard about his service from a friend of mine who used him. After seeing her photos, I was happy to book him for my big day. Excited to receive my whole album of photos


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.
