Antoinette Photography

Michelle and Chelsea did an AMAZING job with our wedding photos and were such a delight to work with. My wife and I were, at first, feeling pretty bummed that our beautiful October wedding was rainy and muddy. But of course it was a fun and beautiful day filled with joy! And Michelle and Chelsea were a huge part of both capturing and creating that joy. They helped us embrace the rain and took *incredibly* stunning photos. They were so attentive to detail, easy to work with, and organized both leading up to the wedding and on the day. I could not be happier with our wedding photos and I could not recommend Antionette Photography more. They are simply the best!!

Wow!! Incredible!!!!! We booked Michelle and Chelsea to photograph our elopement in Portland and the results were more than we could've hoped for. The couple worked with us before the wedding to plan out a photo schedule that incorporated our favorite spots and they suggested a few. They pretty much spent the day with us taking candid and posed photos and they were a joy to work with. The photos turned out amazing with the editorial flair we asked for. They truly have an impeccable eye for artistic lighting and scenes. I have to say our photos look super unique compared to most our of friends. Would highly recommend!

Where do I even begin?? Michelle and Chelsea are not just photographers; they are artists who have a gift for capturing the most beautiful moments of your special day. From the moment we met them, we knew we had found the perfect duo to document our wedding. Their professionalism, creativity, and dedication exceeded our expectations in every way. Michelle and Chelsea made us feel comfortable and relaxed throughout the entire process, from engagement photos to the big day itself. Their friendly and warm personalities instantly put us at ease, and it felt like we were being photographed by old friends. They were fantastic at managing our family and bridal party for group shots, ensuring everyone looked their best and that the process was smooth and stress-free. But where Michelle and Chelsea truly shine is in their ability to capture emotion and create art. They have an eye for the extraordinary and can turn even the simplest moments into stunning, timeless photographs. Their attention to detail is unmatched, and they never missed a beat or an eyesore in the background. Our wedding album is a testament to their talent, filled with breathtaking images that we will cherish for a lifetime. Not only are they incredibly skilled photographers, but they are also excellent communicators. They listened to our ideas and vision and brought them to life. They were responsive and kept us in the loop throughout the entire process, making sure that every aspect of our photography was tailored to our desires. In the end, Michelle and Chelsea didn't just take pictures of our wedding; they created a visual story that perfectly encapsulates the love and joy of the day. We couldn't be happier with the results, and we highly recommend them to anyone seeking photographers who are not just professionals but also genuine, passionate artists. Thank you, Michelle and Chelsea, for giving us the gift of these incredible memories. You both are truly outstanding, and we feel so fortunate to have met you both and to have had you capture our special day! We can't wait for our next shoot with you both!

Chelsea and Michelle were everything we could’ve asked for and more! We booked them for our outdoor wedding in Bridgton, Maine in August 2023 for 8 hours on the wedding day and an additional engagement photo session about 6 months earlier. Throughout the entire process they were super responsive and great to communicate with. During the engagement shoot and the wedding they did an amazing job of capturing all the important moments, all the important people, and all the amazing different backgrounds! They took a nice blend of posed and candid photos and were very helpful telling us how to pose for the best-looking pictures. They also sent us our photos super quickly, sending the sneak peeks within 24 hours of the wedding, and the rest of the photos 3 weeks later! Overall, they were professional, talented, and very fun to work with. We would recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing wedding photographer! Thank you, Chelsea and Michelle!

Michelle and Chelsea are just the absolute best all around. They're creative, so talented, patient, and truly care about capturing your vision and day. We did both our engagement shoot and micro-wedding with them and every single picture is like a piece of art that genuinely shows who we are as a couple. We couldn’t recommend them more!

We love Michelle and Chelsea so much! We really wanted exceptional wedding photography that we could hang in our home like art. These photographers gave us the most amazing photographs, beyond what we could have even fantasized. They were comforting, kind, and helped guide us into great photos. Michelle and Chelsea felt like guests at the wedding and honestly, we were sad to see them go. We are still in awe of the work they did. We will treasure these pictures forever. They truly captured all the magic we felt on that day.

Michelle and Chelsea are the absolute best photographers ever! They were amazing to work with and every single shot was so good that it’s hard to choose a favorite. Our wedding pictures are STUNNING! Everyone I’ve shown the picture gallery to has said they are the best wedding pictures they’ve ever seen. And I’m so happy I’ll have these memories forever.

Having Michelle and Chelsea photograph our intimate elopement was such a great decision! From the beginning, our conversations felt so authentic and they really showed how much they cared about what I was looking for by giving suggestions and conveying so much enthusiasm. It was very important to me to have a photographer that we were super comfortable with because our group was so small and they felt like we were adding professional friends to our circle. We were very non-traditional with our day, and they were on board with anything we wanted, plus shared sneak peeks the very next day! We hope to be back in the area in the future and will call up M&C for more services!

Chelsea and Michelle were awesome!! They shot our engagement photos and they came out so so good. We wanted a winter snowy landscape and they were so flexible and accommodating to bring our vision to life. They worked with our environment so well and had so many fun and creative shots! Highly recommend them!

Chelsea and Michelle will be your best wedding investment!!! Our photos are so incredibly beautiful - they capture the joy, vibrancy and love of our day so beautifully. They have such great eyes and know how to capture classic photos with family and also such artful and unique shots. Working with a wife duo was also important to us, as a queer couple ourselves - they made us feel so special and seen and at ease! Do they tell everyone how perfect they look throughout their wedding day? Either way, we definitely felt it. Thank you for giving us the most special way to remember the best day of our lives ❤️ Why are you still reading this review? … hire them already!!!

Absolutely incredible! What can we say, Michelle and Chelsea were fantastic. From the planning, to day of, to follow ups and sharing their work, they are responsive, inventive, and thoughtful throughout the process. We honestly could not have asked for a more perfect vendor for our wedding photos. Michelle and Chelsea were on top of it from the moment they arrived, seamlessly navigating and adapting to the inevitable chaos of a wedding day. The one word of advice I could give anyone looking to hire these two is to give them the creative liberty they deserve, they will not disappoint. Chelsea and Michelle thrived in spontaneity, conjuring incredible shots, interment moments, and cherished memories we will never forget. Thanks you two. It was honestly perfect.

Chelsea made the experience so relaxing and fun and got the best pics!

The dynamic duo, Chelsea and Michelle, are wedding photographers extraordinare! They make the whole experience so much fun. Their ideas are unique and they capture every moment . I was floored at how amazing the photos were!

I just recently got married in August and had Antoinette photography for our wedding. They did an amazing job. We received such beautiful photos of our wedding and even a mini video of our collection from them. They are very professional and so friendly. Will definitely hire again for future events. Thank you, Antoinette photography!

We flew Chelsea from Maine to Colorado for our elopement in the mountains. Chelsea is incredibly easy to work with and was flexible on the day of our ceremony when we had to change plans due to weather. Chelsea didn’t miss a single moment- she captured every beautiful detail of our special day and made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We had a wedding reception the following day with our friends and family. Chelsea captured so many great memories from that special day. We received a preview of our photos SO fast and the rest of our gallery was soon to follow. The photos that Chelsea took for us are everything we could have hoped for and so much more. We will cherish them for a lifetime. Worth. Every. Penny.

I absolutely loved how our pictures turned out! I tear up every time I look at them. They captured our day perfectly! We also had a lot of fun getting our photos taken. They made use feel comfortable by doing a great job at guiding us what to do. Highly recommend!

Chelsea was a joy to work with from start to finish despite our wedding being postponed due to Covid, everything was seamless with Chelsea, which took a lot of stress off of me! I love her style, and she captured every moment of our wedding beautifully with such a wonderful calm presence so that we could still not miss a beat of our day! To this day, she still continues to be so responsive when I can’t locate my gallery because I’m so disorganized, haha! 10/10 recommend!

The photos we have received so far from our wedding are everything I imagined they would be and more. We had a chaotic start to the day (hot tip, if you are reading this and planning to get married in a National park… bring walkie talkies. We weren’t prepared to not have cell service!) but the photographers were incredibly flexible and we were able to get some truly magical shots. Forever grateful for them. I haven’t stopped looking at the sneak peek photos they sent us (and their turn around time was miraculous). I highly recommend Antoinette photography to anyone, they captured so much love in each photograph. They made us feel comfortable and though we had not had the chance to meet them ahead of time other than some phone conversations, their energy day of made us feel like we had two more friends at our wedding which made taking photos so much easier.

We truly cannot say enough about these two. Not only did our photographs EXCEED our expectations…these two were organized, attentive and as personable as it gets; from Michelle forcing me to take the time to eat food and drink water, to Chelsea making us feel so natural and comfortable during all the photos and poses. We did not get a chance to meet them prior to the ceremony but within just a few short hours, we found two people that we are dying to see and hang out with again! Thank you Antoinette Photography…I’m so glad I sent a “shot in the dark” inquiry even though I thought we didn’t have a chance of squeezing into your schedule ❤️

We had the best experience with Antoinette Photography! If you’re looking for photographers to get “The Shot”… then look no further. Not only did Michelle & Chelsea capture so many special moments, they also had visions that we captured that I didn’t even think of! The program they use (before your photos are taken) allows you to upload pictures you saved (from Pinterest and so on) so they can see your inspirations ahead of time. They will also request a list of photos you want (such as with what family members, bridesmaids, groomsmen, etc..) but capture SO many more that you will not think of! They are so accommodating: in fact, there was some weather concerns on our wedding day so they contacted us ahead of time to set up a shoot before-hand so we could get the exact photos we wanted. They will send you sneak peaks shortly after your photos are taken which is such a tease because they’re so good that it’s hard to wait for the rest of them, but trust me the wait will be worth it! There is a reason why they’re booked far in advance- you will not find anyone who does it all like they do. Not only are Michelle & Chelsea talented, professional, and dedicated photographers, but they are also extremely caring, understanding, and patient. I feel like we won the “photography lottery,” and couldn’t be happier with our experience!

Michelle and Chelsea were awesome! They strategically planned when to come for our engagement photos to catch the best sunset. When it came time for the wedding, they paid attention to all details and were a pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. We would highly recommended them to anyone, they have such an amazing eye!!!

Michelle and Chelsea were a dream to work with! We had a destination wedding so we didn’t get to meet before the actual wedding day but that didn’t matter! They immediately made us feel comfortable and they were the perfect mix of letting you know the information you need and go with the flow of what we wanted to do that day. We received our sneak peek photos so quickly and they all turned out absolutely stunning. We can’t wait to see the rest! Truly could not asked for a better team at a really fair price. Book them as soon as you can, you won’t regret it.

Chelsea and Michelle were so wonderful to work with. It was important to my wife and I that we worked with an LGBTQ photographer for our wedding. They both made us feel so comfortable and at ease. The photos are amazing - so many adorable candid shots that show the personalities of our loved ones. They really captured the magic of our wedding day! Thank you so much Chelsea and Michelle!!

Michelle and Chelsea are the absolute best. Super easy to communicate with and they were extremely flexible for our wedding in Acadia National Park. Our family and friends also loved them. They capture our love perfectly. Would HIGHLY recommend.

I cannot recommend Antoinette photography enough! They were the saving grace of our wedding and ended up being the best thing to happen to us! Their talent is unmeasurable and the photos are beautiful. If they’re available, book them :)
