Images By Daniel Michael

all the pictures with patience working with everyone! I felt very comfortable being able to voice my vision during the entire process! If I could do it all over again, I would choose Daniel Michael photography over and over!

accommodating with specific shots that we wanted. They were very personable and our wedding parties enjoyed working with them as well. Would recommend!

sure there were no hiccups and worked so well with the rest of our vendors. Eric made every single moment feel completely personal like they were part of the family. Out of all the wedding vendors we picked Daniel Micheal was definitely our favorite. From start to finish they made us feel like we were the most important in the world. I cannot recommend them enough. Our day was so special due to Eric and his team!

dent, and always in control in the best way. He took charge when needed, kept everything running smoothly, and made us feel so comfortable the entire day. We couldn’t recommend him more!

of calm, confidence, and genuine excitement that instantly put us at ease. Beyond the talent, Eric and his team are wonderful assets to have by your side on your big day. Warm, patient, and SO fun! They kept us on schedule, made us look natural even when we felt awkward, and blended in well with our family and friends. If you are looking for a photographer who elevates your entire wedding day, look no further! Choosing Daniel Michael Photography was one of the best wedding decisions we made!

hotographer and was so fun to have with us on the wedding day. Can’t recommend him enough.

d a lovely engagement session. I would advise that if there are any specific shots that you really want and you are behind schedule I would advocate re-prioritizing while there is still time or you may miss out on them. However, we got some fantastic shots that captured the memories of the day.

make our day stress free!

over planning anything and they talked me through a lot of wedding things in general and it made me feel more at ease. I also found out my cousin's friend used this same place, I saw their photos on the wall and in a book. I texted my cousin immediately to ask her what her friend thought about her photographer and she said she loved them. I ended up having the exact same photographer! Lauren was so great to talk to, she gave us great directions (even though my now husband went the wrong way for our first look, I heard her say the right thing! Lol). I was very open to all her suggestions and relied on them a lot but also if I wanted a specific photo she took it. When I arrived i immediately saw my now husband standing with his back to me by the water and I told her he looks so cute can you take a photo when you go back over? She did, and also informed my husband what I said which I loved as he was extremely nervous before the first look. I thought I would be more nervous for the photos, so many and being the center of attention but Lauren made the experience so fun and lovely. My grandma was crying when we were taking photos and had to run her eyes several times, Lauren was so patient, told her she would wait for her as long as she needed. We haven't gotten our photos back yet but I'm so excited to see them.

weekend! . Throughout the day, Eric and his assistant worked flawlessly and comfortably with the wedding party, many of whom were “camera shy”. Very quickly, they established a rapport with a diverse group of personalities.  Everyone had nothing but good things to say about the whole experience, from parents to wedding party to guests.  But I think it was the Groom who summed up the evening  best when he said he wished we could do so much more than just thank and tip our photographer. I cannot agree more.  The whole experience was like having a good friend working with us. It was that comfortable and stress free for everyone! I’m certain the photos will reflect the atmosphere Eric and Al helped create, and I cannot be more satisfied with our choice to use your company to capture the feel and flair of such a  special day.  Eric and Al were not just technical pros. They were masters at keeping the whole experience authentic and stress free.  Bravo and cheers!!

thing to stress about! I was shown a few of the photos on our wedding day and I cannot wait to see the rest! I cannot recommend them enough!

ot back to us quickly, answered all our questions, and made the whole planning process feel way less stressful. It felt like we were in really good hands from day one, and that made a huge difference. On the day of the event, Daniel was incredibly organized and kept everything running smoothly. He helped us stay on schedule without ever making it feel rushed or stressful. Somehow he managed to be everywhere he needed to be, right when we needed him — but in such a calm, easygoing way that we never felt pressured or overwhelmed. One of the best parts about working with Daniel was his sense of humor. He kept the energy light, helped everyone relax, and had us laughing throughout the entire day. Whether it was during group photos or just in between moments, he always knew how to keep the mood fun and comfortable. That really helped us feel more like ourselves — and it absolutely shows in the photos. Speaking of the photos… wow. They are beautiful. Like, truly stunning. Daniel has such a great eye for capturing genuine moments, not just the big stuff, but the small in-between ones, too. The pictures feel so real and full of emotion. You can tell he’s incredibly talented, not just because of how the photos look, but because of the way he captures them. It's not about heavy editing or trendy effects, it's his skill behind the camera that really shines. We’re so grateful to have had him document such an important day for us. We’ll treasure these photos forever, and we honestly can’t recommend Daniel enough!!

someone that goes above and beyond. Meeting with Daniel made us feel much better as he was so friendly and personal. Our photographer Larry was phenomenal, he took amazing engagement pictures lead us through poses but also captured moments between us that were not planned. During the wedding day he was reassuring, keeping us relaxed and even offering to get us drinks and making sure we were taken care of. His energy was amazing and truly went above and beyond what we thought a photograph would do. So grateful to have a second chance to find such an amazing photographer!

tail. 

ick, and our bridal assistant (aka bridal bestie!) was Jenna. From start to finish, their team was phenomenal—kind, punctual, funny, and amazing at keeping us on schedule without ever making us feel rushed. Don’s experience really shined, guiding us seamlessly and making sure every moment was captured perfectly. When I wasn’t feeling well at one point, Jenna immediately noticed and went above and beyond to take care of me. She also handled my flowers and dress all day, giving my bridesmaids the chance to relax and enjoy themselves instead of worrying about the details. She fixed my dress, hair, and flowers after every picture, I can't imagine not having her there to help. Don and Rick captured everything so naturally and beautifully, making the entire day feel effortless and stress-free. If you’re considering booking them, definitely go for both photographers and the bridal bestie package—it was 100% worth it and made our wedding even more perfect and memorable. I couldn’t be more grateful and would book them again in a heartbeat!

y photographer was Lauren and she was AMAZING. She was patient with all the military men in our party, knew who was who, and was delicate with our crazy family dynamic. Cannot recommend her enough!!!

now his name or recognize his photos, Dan is the top photographer in the city—and we truly can’t recommend him enough. Planning a Wedding in Four Months? Challenge Accepted. Planning a wedding in under four months is no small feat, so I was thrilled to learn that Images by Daniel Michael Photography had availability for our date. Initial Meeting Dan personally handles all initial consultations at his Reading office, matching couples with photographers based on style and personality. My mom and I made a day of it in the Reading bridal district, ending with our appointment with Dan. Despite arriving 30 minutes late due to a watch mishap, Dan graciously spent extra time with us, walking through photography styles and techniques. His passion for building genuine relationships with clients was clear, and his expertise shone through. We were excited to book Dan himself and joined one of his monthly socials the following week to introduce my fiancé and finalize our deposit. Engagement Photos Our package included engagement photos, and we chose to shoot in Covington to recreate our first date. While Dan typically prefers Sharon Woods, he was incredibly accommodating given the sentimental value. He used the session not just to capture beautiful moments, but also to learn how we interact, pose, and what kinds of shots we love—making the wedding day photography even smoother. Wedding Day Dan arrived with two associate photographers, and thanks to our previous meetings, socials, and engagement shoot, we felt completely at ease. Our bridal party and families loved his humor and energy. When we had to pivot our photo timeline and location last-minute, Dan and his team adapted seamlessly, finding perfect lighting and backdrops on the fly at George Rogers Clark Park. Why Dan Is #1 Wedding days fly by, and having someone who truly sees and captures the moments that matter is invaluable. Did we get every Pinterest-inspired shot? Maybe not. But Dan took the time to understand us—our personalities, our families, and the unique touches that made our day special. He didn’t just replicate trends; he told our story through his lens. That’s what makes Dan #1.

, helpful, and funny. We also had the help of Terri and Ernest. They did a great job getting people to smile. Our dog played a large role in our wedding and they made sure to include her in as much of the day as they could. Eric and his team were great communicators, helpers, and were quick to get on board with any photos extra photos we suggested. We are so appreciative of all their hard work and will definitely be booking with them again!

er was our photographer and him and his crew were so patient and understanding and did everything with a smile! I can’t wait to see all the final products!

o be my photographer. His work was beautiful, but his personality was even BETTER! :) Having a great photographer is important to document such an important day, but to have a photographer who's fun, hilarious, and fits in with your vibe is A++!! Daniel was all of that and he made our wedding FUN! Besides, you gotta think... your photographer is going to be with you from start to finish on your big day. Who wouldn't want someone who is going to have as much fun as you are and make you feel like a million bucks! If you have gotten this far and haven't been sold on Images by Daniel Michael, then you're just not fun! LOL! But really, look into this company because even if you don't hire Daniel Michael himself, he has a team of great and talented people that will make your day just as spectacular! Plus, he will work with you for a price that fits you right! Thank you, Daniel for a truly memorable day! My husband and I cannot wait to see the masterpieces you captured! XOXO

le to position us perfectly and was able to work around the sun to get the best possible lighting. He was able to get the angles he needed to get the best possible look. Even in the darker parts of the night, no quality of pictures were lost. Don and his team were very helpful from the moment they arrived. They not only took amazing pictures, they helped with dresses, carrying bouquets, making the flower girl laugh for pictures, and so much. They were a very special part to our day.

my own personal concerns of insecurities. And those insecurities went out the window with his guidance! So happy we went with Images by Daniel Michael!!! He’s the best…hands down!

d was professional, calm, and incredibly easy to work with from start to finish. Johnny worked so well with both of our families, kept things on schedule, and somehow made family wrangling look effortless — even when reminding people to put away phones and sunglasses! We haven’t even seen the photos yet, and we already know they’ll be amazing. Highly, highly recommend Johnny to any couple looking for someone who is both talented and genuinely great to be around. Thank you for everything, Johnny! — Anjee & Jeff 💕

othly!

he wedding Dan was very fun to work with and kept the whole wedding party smiling with his jokes. He had an amazing eye for setting up the perfect pictures. We strongly recommend Images by Daniel Micheal. Truley a wonderful experience to get to work with him and the team.

The engagement session alone had us absolutely sure we made the right choice, from just the way he was able to make us feel like it wasn’t a photo shoot and just us doing our normal thing. The results were incredible, with everyone telling us it was the best shoot they had ever seen. The actual day was just as amazing, with every family member I have acknowledging how incredible Johnny was at being everywhere, and getting every moment. The grooms friends all raved about how accepting and encouraging he was about every one of their weirdo photos ideas, and of course, as the couple, we just so loved being put at ease and not even remotely having to worry about anything. If you want the ultimate hype man, a photographer who can actually make you laugh, and feel like you are doing a shoot with a genuine friend, Johnny is absolutely worth every $$$.

was Eric Nally and since the beginning he has always been so amazing to work with. I cannot wait to see the photos he took!! From what we have seen, we are just blown away!

un to work with! Would highly recommend!

n’t so tense and nervous. He was so professional throughout the whole process and we could tell just how much attention and care he put toward our day. He even memorized everyone in the bridal parties name and with such a large family, there were 20 of us strong! And of course the incredible photos we got to see left my husband and I in awe they were so beautiful. And Jenna, his assistant was also wonderful, there to lend a helping hand and the beautiful candids she got throughout the day were so sweet. She even helped make sure I didn’t lose my veil! Overall, thank you to these amazing people for helping to make our day that much more special, huge shout out and thank you!

and you can tell he absolutely loves his job. As soon as we began working with Don we could tell he was the right fit for us for our wedding day pictures! All of the staff at Daniel Michael are so nice and professional. Our bridal assistant, Jen, also did a great job with everything. I would highly recommend using them for your wedding day or any other special occasion.

would be caught up for hours on the day taking pictures and I did not really know what all I wanted. Eric and team made picture taking easy. We received so many compliments from guests on how nice they were and how they were taking soooo many pictures (which they wish they had had). I can’t wait to see our final wedding pictures! We will likely use them again for any future pictures we need.

nal, approachable, and made us feel completely at ease. As wedding photography novices, we were a little nervous, but Daniel's confidence was contagious, and he put us at ease immediately. We knew the photos were going to be amazing because he genuinely took the time to understand our vision, our likes and dislikes, and what was important to us. He went above and beyond, making an effort to get to know us AND our friends and family – it was so personal and thoughtful! On the day of the wedding, we were also lucky enough to have Tyler as a second photographer. It was our first time meeting him, and he was just as friendly, helpful, and talented as Daniel! Tyler has an incredible eye and is sure to become an amazing lead photographer in no time. We also had the pleasure of working with Eric, who was always so open, kind, and made us feel like part of the family. The studio itself is just as wonderful as the people who work there. They made us feel incredibly comfortable and supported throughout the entire process. The team is so organized, professional, and clearly has SO much experience. Daniel is not just an outstanding photographer, but his team is second to none. We couldn’t be more thrilled with how everything turned out! If you're looking for a wedding photographer who will make you feel relaxed, deliver breathtaking photos, and go above and beyond, Daniel Michael and his team are the ones to trust!

was also there for anything I needed and was a huge help
