Mike and his team did a phenomenal job photographing our wedding. Mike was so friendly and professional throughout the entire wedding planning process. He went above and beyond from the start and was so knowledgeable on all things Long Island wedding-he even helped connect us with the perfect DJ for our event! Our pictures came out so beautiful and he made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera. We highly recommend Michael John Photography to everyone in search of the perfect wedding photographer.
Mike and his team photographed our wedding this Friday and WOW! He is such a personal guy, extremely professional, and paid great attention to detail. He was quick, smooth, and to the point! His team was so kind and kept us very comfortable. I’m so excited to see my photos!!!!
We absolutely LOVE Mike and his team. We had to plan our Long Island wedding while living in another country, and Mike made not just the photography process but other parts of wedding planning as smooth as possible (we joke that he was our de facto wedding planner!) From the start, he was accommodating, communicative, and genuinely reassuring during what could have been a stressful time.
When I mentioned my preferences to optimize lighting for our very diverse, multiethnic wedding party, as well as our families, Mike went above and beyond to ensure that we all looked our best in every shot. His attention to detail truly made a difference. On the wedding day, he gave clear, helpful directions without ever being pushy, and his calm, positive energy was a joy to have around.
And most importantly, every single photo turned out amazing! On top of being a fantastic photographer, Mike is just an all-around great person and every member of his team is a pleasure to work with. Thank you, Mike, for capturing our day so perfectly!
My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Michael Lopacki, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional! From the very beginning, it was clear how passionate he is about his craft. He created a detailed timeline that covered all the shots we wanted, ensuring that everything flowed smoothly throughout the day. What truly stood out was his calm demeanor—he kept everything relaxed and enjoyable, even during busy moments. His ability to crack jokes and keep the conversation light made us feel at ease, allowing us to be ourselves in front of the camera.
Additionally, he was so accommodating, even going above and beyond to capture extra family shots that weren't originally planned in the timeline. The results were nothing short of amazing—every photo was beautiful, capturing the essence of the day perfectly. We couldn't be happier with our experience and the stunning photographs that we will cherish forever. Highly recommend!
Words can’t express how grateful me and my husband are to have such a wonderful photographer for our wedding day. Michael John is not only an absolutely talented but he is so genuine and amazing to work with. Our sneak peek shots have us on the edge of our seats. We are so beyond blessed, thank you for everything that you have done to make our day so perfect. HIGHLY APPRECIATED!!!! Run ladies don’t walk
Michael and Hunter were absolutely phenomenal! My favorite part about working with Michael and Hunter was that they listened to our vision. We preferred to have more candid shots than posed photos because we were on a tight timeline. Hunter got so many insane action shots. His flexibility and understanding of our vision helped make our wedding the most perfect day! Michael was so kind and personable, which made him very easy to work with.
Working with Mike for our engagement photos was so much fun. My fiancé and I had never done professional pictures before, and Mike made us feel totally at ease. The pictures he took were absolutely incredible; we can't believe how beautiful they all look! We can't wait to work with him again on our wedding day.
I cannot say enough good things about Mike. He is very responsive and has a great personality. We used him for our engagement shoot and immediately booked him for our wedding. He makes it fun and easy. I absolutely LOVED our pictures when we got them back. I could not pick out my favorite. 1000000/10 recommend.
[I am having trouble uploading the photos to this review :( ]
We just got our engagement photos back and Michael is the best! He is super responsive and basically planned out our wedding day for us, which alleviates a lot of stress. He also has great recommendations for other vendors, we ended up booking our DJ based on his recommendation. At the engagement shoot he is personable, funny, talented and FAST! We got more than 200 photos back for just an hour long shoot, it's really hard to choose my favorites! We're so excited to have him for our wedding, 10/10 would recommend him.
Michael is great! He has been easy to work with from initial inquiry through photos being delivered. He listens to what you'd like and then makes it happen. For someone who doesn't really like the attention of getting their photo taken, he makes it fun and light. Highly recommend Michael!!
Michael John Photography was one of the first vendors I choose for my wedding and the best decision ever made. He brought my engagement shoot vision to life and made it the most magical enjoyable time. He truly is so responsive and helpful through out stressful wedding planning. I am so looking forward to having him be apart of our wedding day.
When booking a wedding, photography was high on the list because pictures last a lifetime. I am so incredibly happy we worked with Mike! He was great with communication prior to our event and made everything seamless and easy. He had such a way in making everyone super comfortable and remembering each photo we wanted! I just received my final gallery back and the photos are STUNNING!!! I would recommend him to everyone!!!
Mike is amazing! I have used him for numerous life events, and now my wedding. He goes above and beyond, makes you feel comfortable instantly, and is such a sweetheart and makes your day so special. I have his photos all over my home, and they look like art. He has a forever return customer with me, and I am constantly referring him to everyone I know. BOOK HIM!!
When it comes to wedding photography, Mike went above and beyond. He has an amazing eye for capturing the most intimate moments candidly, and knows how to command a room effortlessly. What truly sets Mike apart is his humor – he knows exactly how to lighten the mood and get everyone smiling naturally.
Mike didn’t just take photos, he orchestrated our day, ensuring everything ran seamlessly and stress-free. He blended into the wedding like a friend, capturing all the precious moments with effortlessly. The quality of his work is outstanding – most photos didn't need much editing because he knows how to find the perfect lighting and environment. And for the ones he does touch up, he maintains a natural look that’s timeless.
We are incredibly grateful to have had Mike document our wedding. He was a joy to work with, reasonably priced, and really knows how to gets things done! If you want a wedding photographer who will exceed your expectations and make your day run smoothly, Mike is the guy. You won’t regret it!
I can not recommend Mike and his team enough. First of all, he is so funny and will make you, your partner and your wedding party feel so comfortable during photos. We truly had a BLAST working with him! He was the most responsive and detail oriented vendor I worked with! He set up my entire timeline with me and kept checking in leading up to make sure nothing changed. He made sure we got all of our shots on our shot list but also let us have our space to actually enjoy our wedding. The sneak peek pictures are better than I could have ever imagined, they are truly stunning.
I cannot say better things about Michael! What sold us on him originally (besides his portfolio) was his personality. He makes things light and fun, he jokes around and makes everyone comfortable. All of our pictures and back amazing. There’s not a single picture I don’t love! Highly highly recommend him
We cannot say enough good things about Michael and his team! He truly was amazing. Both my husband and I are on the shyer side and Michael did a wonderful job of getting us out of our shell for photos. Michael did our engagement shoot where we quickly realized how happy we were going to be working with him. On our wedding day we had Michael, his assistant Mike and the assistant photographer Hunter. Everyone from the team was funny and friendly which made the whole day even more fun for us. The photos they took were absolutely beautiful. Michael also helped us to make sure that we were on schedule for the days events so that everything would go smoothly for us. One of our favorite vendors to work with!
Absolutely amazing to work with! Very personable and professional. His photos are breathtaking, always finding the perfect light!
Amazing!! Cannot recommend enough. So personable yet professional. Amazing photos to remember the best day!

Highly recommend Michael as your wedding photographer. Quick responses, professional, and overall just a pleasant person to work with. His energy and positive attitude is really what we were drawn to from the beginning. He was so patient with us- our engagement shoot was rescheduled 2-3 times due to weather and he was so accommodating. His pictures speak for themselves and you will NOT be disappointed!!!
They fit our vibe and our bridal party vibe PERFECTLY! They are funny, engaging, energetic, professional, cool, and just overall a bunch of really awesome dudes.

Mike was a blast to work with: so responsive, helpful, and a really great human being. Our engagement shoot was easy, and he really listened to what we wanted. Mike and his team also did wonders for our wedding, highlighting the beautiful scenery around us, efficiently gathering family members for group photos, all the while sharing lots good humor and cheer. He captured many great candids, and even got creative with my nephew's bubble gun. Mike was able to create the perfect balance between elegance and fun, and I highly, highly recommend him!
Michael is professional, personable, and most importantly TALENTED! He made our engagement shoot so fun. He provided with sneak peaks within just a few days of the shoot and the full gallery in less than 3 weeks! Highly recommend Michael John Photography. We cannot wait till he shoots our wedding!
Michael was absolutely amazing to work with. His enthusiasm, positive attitude and fun personality really made my day just as I dreamed. He is a pleasure to have around and hyped up my bridal party so well. The photos were better than I could have ever imagined. I especially loved the creativity that went into the photos and even during the day Mike & his team were raving over the photos while they were being taken. You could tell that Mike loves what he does. Mike, Mike & Hunter made Rob & I feel so relaxed and excited. They captured all of the love from our wedding day so accurately and beautifully. I can’t wait to cherish these photos forever. I couldn’t recommend Mike & his team enough. THANK YOU!
Michael was an absolute pleasure to work with! He does not miss ANY details! Our wedding photos all came out so beautiful I couldn't be happier!! Thank you so much Michael for being so fantastic on our special day!
I had such a great experience with Michael. He was great at communicating and his vast knowledge helped me a lot with planning out my wedding day. He has a great upbeat personality and makes you feel so comfortable but also can blend into the background. He was so great with my kids and even met with us at my house a month before the wedding to get the kids comfortable and familiarized. He also did a mini family shoot for us that day complimentary. He was truly a pleasure to work with and I’m in love with the photos he captured on my wedding day. He also brought a 2nd photographer which did an excellent job as well. If you’re thinking of booking him, run!!!
I am so happy with our decision to hire Mike (& his assistant Hunter) as our photographers for our wedding day! They were so much fun to spend the day with, VERY easy to communicate with leading up to the day, and reasonably priced. He was the most responsive vendor I worked with and he always got back to me within a couple of hours. I am so happy with how my photos turned out! They came back within 2 months and I got a sneak peak within a week! I would definitely recommend Mike to any other brides looking to have someone who is easy to work with, so personable and accommodating and reasonably priced!
I have nothing but great things to say about Mike and his photography. Mike has the BEST personality and exceptional photography skills to match. He captured all our best moments on our wedding day and the photos came out absolutely stunning. The detail and the quality of each photo was breathtaking, and my husband and I couldn’t be more thrilled with how each photo came out. Mike was extremely efficient, easy to talk to, fun, and thought of everything to make sure he captured every moment. He went over and beyond with accepting any requests and made our whole experience stress free. Mike is extremely talented and creative, and I HIGHLY recommend him for any event you are looking to have a photographer!
Mike was so wonderful to work with! He was so efficient in getting all of the shots we wanted while also allowing us plenty of time to enjoy time with our guests. The way he was able to remember who was who and everyones role in the day was beyond impressive and shows he cares about his couples and their family/ friends! He made our day so memorable and enjoyable and I really can't thank him enough! 1000/10 recommend!
Mike was awesome to work with! Made us feel comfortable and the pictures came out absolutely beautiful!
Michael is simply outstanding. Having been already familiar with his excellent work, we were thrilled to be able to book him for our boat-cruise wedding celebration. Always professional, but with an inviting and affable personality, Michael makes the experience of posing for the camera easy and comfortable, and otherwise blends in to the crowd effortlessly for tremendous candid shots. His photos and overall work exceed expectations in every possible way. We give him our highest-possible recommendation!
Michael is the best! I used him as a photographer for my engagement photos and my wedding photos. He is kind, punctual, and very knowledgeable. He takes the most beautiful photos and I have loved every single one. He doesn’t miss a single detail. I will continue to only use him for my photos. Don’t wait to book him, you don’t want to miss out!!!
Michael was the perfect photographer for our wedding! He did our engagement shoot as well! He knew all the ins and outs of all the venues we took pictures at and by the end of our wedding night was like part of our family! Our pictures came out absolutely beautiful! He made sure to make a list of my ‘must have’ photos and important people/groups we wanted pictures with during our reception. Time goes by so fast so it was great that he made sure to tell me it’s time for your important photo list! I got my pictures back fast and sneak peeks right away! He is so knowledgeable that I felt like I had my own personal wedding coordinator the entire day! I would recommend Michael to any bride looking for an amazing photographer without those big studio prices!!!
