Michael Anthony Photography

SOME nice photos of good quality. But the photographer didn’t even get the bride coming down the aisle. Granted, it was a small wedding and the aisle was not long, but that was an important shot that was missed. Still, for the price for the ceremony photos, we hoped to have better. Since it was not the traditional large wedding, maybe they were inexperienced with a small intimate ceremony. The cost is big. make sure you know that before you book with them.

So professional and yet fun! Loved getting my photos done with Courtney, she was incredibly sweet and really put me at ease, making me comfortable. I was treated amazingly by the whole staff and the photos turned out beautifully. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Amazing, just amazing! Michael & Jen are such an awesome, talented duo, and we are so lucky to have them as our wedding photographers for our wedding next October. We loved our engagement photos and can’t wait to see how our wedding photos will turn out. We have so much trust in the Michael Anthony team, and can not recommend them enough. They are worth every penny! My favorite thing about them is how if you look at every photo they capture it tells a story. They will be the only photographers we use for life! Thank you guys!

Here’s the deal. Michael Anthony is not cheap. He just isn’t, and if you can’t deal with that, it’s understandable. But don’t stop reading. Give me a minute to sell you.
Photography is the single most important thing you’ll have on your wedding day. Every picture tells a million stories, not just one. Even the video doesn’t compare, because video tells you what emotions to feel. Pictures provoke you to feel those emotions yourself, and every time I look at my wedding photos, I’m transported back to that day.
This is what Michael Anthony does. I’ll pay for his work all day, any day. It’s that amazing. I was worried about photography because I work in TV, and I tend to be picky about visual arts. But there’s no question Michael and his assistants are top level photographers. They are efficient, effective, and blend in to the wedding so perfectly. I never knew he was around, yet I have these amazing photos of me when my wife walked down the aisle. How he took them, I’ll never know. But it’s the single happiest feeling I’ve ever known, and it’s captured in multiple pictures.
Michael specializes in storytelling through pictures, which is an art in itself. And he makes ridiculously amazing albums.
But here’s the most important thing I can say, above all else: Michael and his wife, Jenn, are amazing people. You can tell they care, and they care a lot. It’s not just about money for them. It’s about giving clients something to hold onto for the rest of time. A lasting memory of the happiest day ever. Michael did that. And in the process became like a longtime friend, an extended part of the family. When you hire Michael Anthony, you aren’t just hiring someone with a camera to point and shoot. You’re hiring someone who cares as much about this time in your life as you do.
So don’t let cost turn you away. Go sit down with him. You won’t leave and go anywhere else. And you’ll never regret that decision in your life.

Michael and his team are absolutely amazing. I don’t think I could have had a better experience before, during, or after my wedding. I had the pleasure of working with Michael himself, his wife Jenn, and Eric. They made my big day nothing but flawless and a breeze! Michael was so sweet making a last minute appointment with me before the wedding, just because I was nervous. He was always easy to get ahold of and reassuring throughout all the phases of our wedding. I will always come back and do business with them!
My husband Brandon and I got married this past weekend and are already getting a few pictures back from our wedding. When I saw the first one posted on his Facebook page, I was absolutely speechless. Now that I’m starting to see them all come together, I can’t help but tear up. Their photography skills are unmatched and always moving forward with new techniques. I was a bit apprehensive when I first saw his dramatic approach to wedding photography, but I am so happy I went out of my comfort zone! Thank you Michael, Jenn, and Eric SO much for all your help, you made our big day PERFECT!
Book Michael Anthony Photography, I promise you won’t regret it.

As a Wedding Planner I would highly recommend Michael Anthony Photography! Michael and his entire team are a pleasure to work with and are so talented.
Michael’s Photography is unique and he will capture the exact look you are going for. The quality of his work is unparalleled to anything I have ever seen.
I would highly recommend him for your engagement shoot and your wedding!

Michael Anthony and his wife Jen were everything we hoped for when we booked them as our wedding photographers. Not only do they do great work but they are great people who are easy to get along with and are always looking to accommodate you however they can.
They kept communication lines open throughout the entire process (initial meeting, engagement photos, wedding photos) and got back to us quickly if we had any questions. We didn’t know what to expect when booking vendors for our wedding but as far as photographers go, you really can’t go wrong with booking them.
Michael and Jen showed up early to the wedding and did amazing work. He was very professional and took great photo’s with minimal time to get us to the reception. We viewed our finished photo’s approximately 4 weeks after our wedding (right when he said they would be done) and loved how they came out.
I highly recommend and would tell anyone I know to give them a call and find out for themselves.

My husband and I had an excellent experience with Michael (and Jen his wife). I heard about them through my best friend who used them for her wedding. They were great at her wedding and knew I could trust them! We did engagement photos and wedding photos and all of them turned out AMAZING!!! I cried watching the slideshow at their office two weeks because I just love ALL the photos! I have over 1200 professional photos from my wedding due to how many awesome photos they have taken.
They are a wonderful husband and wife team! They definitely know what they are doing and I would recommend them to anyone! My friend just got engaged and I told her she needs to use them! :)

This review is LONG overdue — Michael shot myself and my fiancé for our engagement photos in Santa Monica in February of this year. Him and Jen were absolutely amazing to work with! They were both very professional and made me and my fiancé feel very comfortable during our photo shoot. We were unsure of how to pose and what to do — but Mike made it easy to get comfortable, laugh and just relax during the photo shoot.
Once we met with Mike to review all of our photos — OMG — we were both blown away with the quality of the images, the moments he was able to capture and just the true love you can tell he has for this business.
Mike truly has a gift and enjoys what he does tremendously — you can tell — it shows in the quality of his work!
I would highly recommend Michael Anthony Photography to all couples looking for the perfect photographer duo!

I can’t even put into words how amazing Michael Anthony and his wife are! We got married on June 20^th, 2014 and got to see our photos for the first time yesterday. We were blown away and moved to tears several times during our photo review. The photos captured so much o the raw emotion of the day in a non-​invasive way and the photos really told the story of how magical the day was in a way that I could have never imagined. We have no idea how we are going to narrow down our favorites for print!
Yes wedding photographers, like most wedding vendors, are expensive but after viewing our photos yesterday, without question Michael Anthony Photography was worth every single penny. We know who will be going to to capture any future life/​family events as Michael is truely talented and puts so much care and thought into his work!
If you are in the process of looking for a wedding photographer for your big day, look no further. One of our friends who reviewed our photo slideshow commented, «Absolutely goregous & stunning! It is the ultimate in wedding photos if you ask me!!!»

This review is long overdue. Michael shot my wedding in 2011. The moments he captured are absolutely beautiful. He was not invasive and very pro. My husband hates taking photos and hates posing so with Michaels photo journalistic style it worked great for us. I would recommend their services to any bride getting married.

Michael and Jenn are just AMAZING! From the start they offered extremely competitive pricing and value to their photographay packages. I loved how it included the engagement session as well.
Our engagment photos turned out incredible and really got me excited for the wedding. Their style is so fun and unique and they really know how to work the camera to create neat lighting effects and will realy work with anything you throw at them. They are really extremely tatlented photographers.
I wanted to give a boudoir photo book for my future husband for a wedding gift and asked Jenn if she could do it, and of course she was happy to accomodate. We did our session on the beach and the photos came out just amazing. My husband LOVED the photo book and was shocked at how the pictures came out, as was I!
As for the wedding photos, they just blew me out the water. They reallly captured every moment from start to fnish, and did just a fabulous job. They got all the photos I mentioned I wanted as well as ones that I didn’t even think about. They put everything on a CD and made a slideshow as well as all of the individual pictures on the CD. I am so happy with the results and would recommend Michael Anthony Photography to anyone in need of a photographer for ANY special event. Whether it’s a wedding, celebrating the birth of a child, engagement photos, a boudoir shoot or fitness shoot, they are by far the best of the best! Thank you guys for everything! =)

Very professional:
— It was obvious that they were not only VERY experienced photographers, but know how to work the wedding. (understanding timelines, shots needed, & the importance of direction.)
Getting the shot:
— Without bothering us (we were all getting ready) he was able to take a lot of the detail shots… flowers, dresses, shoes, rings, groomsmen, getting ready shots.
— We were so happy to see that he caught the unplanned dip/​kiss and the flower girls running around with napkins as capes.
— He was also very helpful in directing photo composition. Stand here, turn this, look there. At this point we had mush wedding brain… so taking the thought out of that was so great! Very keen eye for what looks right.
Turn-​a-​round time:
— We received out photo with in about 3 weeks. We were very pleased with his promptness.
Overall, we were very happy with our decision to use Michael Anthony Photography! They captured not just the beautiful night but all of the emotions involved too.
I will 100% be recommending them and hope to be able to use them again… for a different party :)
