I chose to do a city hall wedding because - I cringe at the…read morethought of setting tables and picking flowers and making a big deal out of everything; - exchanging pleasantry with extended family and feigning interest all day felt like an even bigger chore; - I had to make an obnoxious political statement about millennials & fiscally responsible life choices & wedding industrial complex yada yada; - I have big time daddy issue and partly had the 'bullshit wedding' to troll my dad. but unconventional quirks aside, deep down every girl wanted to look conventionally pretty for that one special day. I was thrilled to find someone experienced in city hall weddings. Tom knows his way around the Philly city hall very well. He knows all the spots and angles, and if i hadn't been half an hour late for my 2 hr appointment (blaming it on the pouring rain/highway traffic) he was planning on going to a beautiful park nearby for more pictures. we got solid 90 minutes of pictures. my friend took pictures from the same angles and we saw those pictures immediately and thought they turned out really well - until we saw the professionally edited ones!

Nicole is a fantastic photographer! My family has been using her for the last 3 years to do a…read morefamily vacation photo shoot and each year the pictures get better and better! She's an LBI local who's very familiar with the best spots to capture photographs. She's super personable and easy to get along with, which makes for a relaxing photo session. Our family photo shoots involve 6 adults and 3 kids and she captures everyone along with smaller groups (like grandparents with the grandkids or individual families). She is patient and understanding and knows how crazy it can be when kids get tired or rambunctious. She can do multiple locations for photo shoots - just recently we did the beach for some pics and then headed to Sunset Park to use as another location. In years past we used the lighthouse. I would highly recommend Nicole to capture any family memories, whether it's a wedding or, if you're like us, on vacation and want to get professional photos to capture everyone. Kids grow up quick and we're so grateful to have these beautiful keepsakes to look back on!

This review is extremely overdue! Nicole shot our wedding on 2/16/20 at the Park Chateau as well…read moreas engagement photos and she was incredible! Nicole was beyond helpful throughout the process, was easily accessible for questions, patient, and super organized (which is HUGE)! From the first time we sat with Nicole, I knew that she was an addition we wanted for our special day. Nicole basically serves as a day-of-coordinator with the detailed timeline she puts together for the day (sorry I deviated from it sometimes LOL). Nicole has the best personality and the ability to get a group to focus so pictures can be completed efficiently! Our parents and bridal party loved her and her second shooter, Mel. Nicole was also open to suggestions throughout the day if I felt like I wanted a specific photo in the moment. We received SO MANY photos back with our full album, each one better than the next, making it so difficult to choose a photo for our canvas and pick our album! Thank you Nicole for making what can be a stressful process so seamless with your knowledge, poise, and flexibility. I would hands down choose you again if I could to be apart of our special day. Nicole truly loves what she does and it shows in her work. Look no further, she is your girl!

Cassie was the photographer for my rehearsal dinner and wedding on June 21st + June 22nd, 2013…read more After having engagement photo's captured with a different photographer who I felt wasn't a good fit for my husband and I, I met Cassie through a mutual friend. From our first meeting I was very comfortable working with her. She has the kind of personality that is professional, yet very friendly and approachable. She came to our apartment for our first consultation and patiently listened to all of my preferences for photo's that I was most interested in having captured on our special day. The day of the wedding she was absolutely great! She met up with my husband and his groomsmen and took a bunch of great shots of their group. It was a perfect mixture of candid, serious, and funny/casual poses. Before the wedding while I was getting ready, she was great at running between where my bridal party was getting ready and where my husband and his groomsmen were, in order to capture as many photo's as possible. The entire day I was completely comfortable and relaxed, knowing she was doing a great job. I think when working with a photographer the most important thing is to feel comfortable and confident with them; and I definitely did with Cassie. Since the wedding she has been nothing but responsive, helpful, and professional. My husband and I already ordered a small album that she put together for my parents as a Christmas present. We plan on ordering a full wedding album from Cassie sometime in the near future, and we are looking forward to working with Cassie again for other big events that we want to have professional photo's taken. Thanks again Cassie, you rock!

Cassie the best; words truly cannot truly describe how talented, dedicated, and hardworking she is…read more- only photos can show that. I had recently hired Cassie to capture my girlfriends' surprise party, and let me tell you, I am still in awe. From the moment I contacted Cassie, with my absurdly redundant, and overly anal-borderline-psychotic ideas and instructions, she made it clear as day, that she will make it happen. She showed up at the event space with her full gear an hour early to set-up her gear, photo-booth, and get a feel for the space and lighting. When my girlfriend and I arrived, all of our guests had already been well acquainted with Cassie - and as our door opened, the party roared, "SURPRISE"! and out popped Cassie like a paparazzi and *FLASH* *FLASH*. For the next 4 hours, Cassie didn't miss a thing. She was EVERYWHERE, but at the same time, nowhere. I mean, I don't recall her ever being in the way, or stopping/nagging anyone to pose for pictures or anything - but she was clearly there... All 500 photo's I received are proof of this. Which is another thing that blows my mind. I know with previous photographers, generally only 5-10% of the photos they take, are useable and nice-looking photo's. Cassie sent me 500, yes 500, INCREDIBLE photos. Every photo could be an album cover photo... I sent the photos to everyone who attended the party, and everyone was absolutely amazed. The reactions to the photos, brings back every ounce of laughter we experienced the night of. This is exactly what a photograph should do. These aren't photos you can get anywhere else. You cannot get photos like this from your iPhone. You cannot get photos like this from your Canon 5D. You cannot get photos like this from most other photographers out there. What separates Cassie and her art from everyone else is her passion. You can tell every single hire she gets, is an adventure. I saw it that night, and I see it in every photo she took. I'd happily hire and recommend Cassie to anyone and everyone looking for someone who wants the best photographer and the best results. Every photo she takes tells a story and is full of life.

Of all the hundreds of decisions involved in planning my wedding, choosing Devon was the easiest,…read moreand the one that I continue to be thankful for nearly every day. The day of the wedding Devon was a calming force: super relaxed, able to herd my raucous bridal party, and always having an answer to my questions. Every moment of the wedding was captured, from extended family portraits to a quiet moment shared between my husband and I at the reception; yet Devon and her team felt nearly invisible- never pushy, always just capturing the event happening around them. I'm super proud of my wedding pictures, mostly because they capture exactly how I felt on that day- joyous, excited, filled with love for everyone around me. I don't know that anyone but Devon would have been able to capture that feeling. I know I'm still going to be in love with these pictures when I'm old and grey. I can't recommend Devon enough.

Devon was all we could of asked for in a photographer; professional, engaging, and her laid back nature and free form shooting really put our wedding party at ease. My husband was typical of most grooms in that he didn't want to spend hours on end posing for shots; Devon was respectful of that and worked in some amazing photos in the hour and 1/2 before our ceremony started. Devon and her assistant Bonnie were in the background during our ceremony and reception in the best way possible; not at all intrusive to the point that we forgot we were being photographed! In my opinion, that was a great thing!

Seriously the best!

She took some of the most beautiful photos of my family! We were blown away by her natural ability to get the best shots of all of us. We have used her numerous times now and every time the photos are just as amazing! The mini shoots are perfectly priced, and the shorter length of the session is about all my little one can handle, so continuing to book with her is a no brainer! She's a wonderful person and photographer and I confidently recommend her to anyone looking for beautiful family portraits!

We just received our photos from our wedding on 3/21 and all we could say is WOW. My wife and I…read morewere just in awe of how amazing the photos looked, especially the portraits which looked like a work of art. We were assigned Reena and Roderick as our main photographer and videographer, and Ben and Tuck as the secondary photographer and videographer. They gave such clear direction to ensure the photos came out the way we wanted. All 4 of them were respectful, professional and very accommodating. We had an extensive list of photo combinations we wanted with the bridal party, our parents, wedding sponsors, and extended family and the Dean Michaels team managed to capture every single moment. I'd ask Reena last minute if we could take pictures at different locations and she would be so accommodating and the photos came out perfect. We are so glad we went with Dean Michaels. It's always tough picking through hundreds of wedding photo companies but my wife and I really liked the style of Dean Michaels which provided a good mix of dramatic and traditional photos without being too over the top. We highly recommend Dean Michaels if you're undecided who to go with for your wedding or any other events!

Kristen to the rescue! Kristen came up on a random google search, promptly responded to my email and I crossed my fingers we ended up with some good photos. I could not have imagined what an absolute joy it was to meet her and what amazing memories she captured! It was a small backyard party but Kristen was so professional and thorough - it mattered as much to her as a huge wedding. She was amazing with the small children and even better with the nervous in front of the camera grandparents! Kristen took pictures of every detail, the "big" moments and more importantly the small moments. Having a baby during covid meant that we missed out on capturing some of his first year with family and friends. Thankfully I know have a TON of amazing photos that bring a huge smile to my face whenever I look at them (which is still quite often). I often have annoyingly high standards but Kristen surpassed them, she is a true gem. I look forward to working with her in the future, thank you Kristen!

I had a truly wonderful experience working with Juliana. My dog, Molly, was getting up there in age…read moreso for her 16th birthday, I decided to do a special Sweet 16 photoshoot with her. Juliana took the time to really get to know me and the things that meant most to me about Molly. She carefully chose a scenic location that wouldn't overwhelm her and while Molly was a bit uncooperative (at that age, she didn't care what anyone told her to do), Juliana was so patient with her and worked with us to capture the most amazing moments. During our design consultation, Juliana wowed me with a beautiful slideshow of my photos and helped me select images which she later included in a gorgeous portrait box that I now display in my home. Sadly, just a few weeks after our photo session, Molly passed away. Words cannot describe how grateful I am to have these beautiful pictures of the two of us. For 16 years she was a constant in my life and I will treasure these photos forever. Thank you so much Juliana!
