I wish I could rate Michelle 10 stars!!! We got married this past weekend and are so lucky to already have professional photos to share from our special day. From our engagement shoot, to the planning process, to the wedding day, Michelle's professionalism was outstanding. Not only did Michelle organize a timeline for the day based on so many moving pieces, she customized the day for us to make sure we got all the photos we wanted. She was also super flexible with last minute changes that were out of our control and had to be made. Guests at the reception raved about having the photographer in on the action, especially on the dance floor, because it made them feel valued as part of the experience. I cannot recommend Michelle enough!
Michelle and her team were easy to work with during our event. She was tentative and thorough. Michelle met with my husband and I numerous times to go over shot lists and gather ideas on what type of style we were going for. The sneak peek photos came back within 24 hours of our event and looked amazing! We cannot recommend Michelle more!
One of the most stressful parts of wedding planning is the timeline of events - knowing when/who/where. Michelle really owned this part of the planning process and helped us stay on track throughout the entire day. She was so easy to work with, organized and thorough but most importantly was focused on two things: making sure the memories were captured and that my husband and I enjoyed our day. She constantly was checking in with us to make sure we were capturing the moments, making sure we were comfortable and just throwing out some additional ideas as we got more comfortable. I think the best & biggest thing - we got sneak peaks the very next day (and I know this can't be promised, as it wasn't due in our contract for the next week!) but that was so appreciative. We were able to snuggle up on the beach just the two of us the next day and take in the memories which was so remarkable. I cannot wait to get the rest of the session back as the sneak peeks were SO GOOD.
We loved working with Michelle! She was so organized and responded to all our questions/concerns instantly. She created our full wedding day timeline (from getting ready to the last cake cutting pictures) and was extremely professional throughout the planning process. We just received our full gallery and could not be happier. Michelle captured all of special moments and we highly recommend!
I had a great experience with Michelle Behre as our wedding photographer! From the start, she and I clicked instantly. She really understood my vision and was so happy and friendly throughout the process. We hired Michelle for both our welcome dinner and wedding day. While her assistant handled the welcome dinner and was super kind, we’re still waiting to see those photos. On our wedding day, Michelle was attentive and made sure to capture all the special moments. Her editing style is gorgeous, and she really listened to what I wanted.
One hiccup was that my husband felt her assistant rushed through his groomsmen getting ready photos, and he missed out on some shots he wanted. Thankfully, Michelle addressed this issue later on. We’ve just received our sneak peek, and the photos are stunning!
Run, don’t walk to book Michelle for your wedding. From our initial call she had our timeline mapped out, and was so beyond organized and made me feel so at ease. Her enthusiasm and professionalism made the choice to book her a no-brainer.
She made us feel so comfortable during our engagement session in NYC and even stopped traffic just so we could get the perfect shot. Leading up to the wedding she was so communicative, and made sure we had every shot outlined. Michelle not only communicated with me, but with all my vendors and even went as far as going to the venue to scope out all the shots.
The day of the wedding Michelle was prompt, candid and an actual dream to work with. I couldn’t imagine having anyone else shoot our special day.
To top it all off, Michelle sent us sneak peeks the day after the wedding and had the full gallery weeks later. Her timely manner was unheard of and I cannot recommend her enough!!! She really goes above and beyond and her talent and professionalism is unmatched.
My husband and I explored and interviewed several photographers for our wedding, but when we connected with Michelle, we knew we found the right person! We felt the trust and her contagious enthusiasm early in our relationship - her deep experience shooting at our wedding venue pushed things over the top. On our wedding day, she and her team were professional, patient (but also kept order), and knew all the right angles. Following the wedding, she turned around a quick 100+ photo gallery for family friends and several Instagram reels, which were incredibly appreciated.
Thanks again Michelle - Jess and Ethan
I got married just 2 days ago and couldn’t waste any time in recommending Michelle to other brides looking for the perfect person to capture their day. To say that she did a phenomenal job with her team is an understatement. She calmed my nerves, worked with a tight timeline, directed family and friends as needed, and took the most stunning photos of every detail. To any bride looking for photography, stop your search. You will be in the BEST hands with Michelle. 🤍
We cannot think of enough words to describe just how special and excellent Michelle was before, during and after our wedding day on 2/3/24. She loves LOVE and making you feel special… like nothing else matters. Her photography style is everything we ever dreamed of: romantic, dreamy, light and airy. She went above and beyond our expectations. Talent and professionalism at its finest. It truly was all about the bride and groom - what we wanted and wished for. Everyone needs to make Michelle Behre Photography a must on their wedding planning. We cannot wait for our lives to cross paths again and be photographed by Michelle again.
My fiance and I used Michelle Behre for our engagement shoot and we couldn't be happier. She is talented, personable, and professional. She really made an effort to connect with me ahead of booking to understand my vision and what kind of shoot we were looking for. Scheduling her was a seamless experience, and shooting was wonderful. She truly captured the essence of our relationship and the ambiance of our chosen location (a swanky, vintage cocktail bar). I've only seen our sneak peeks, but so far we are thrilled with the shots. Highly recommend her!
Michelle is exceptionally talented, and most importantly, incredibly warm in a way that immediately puts you at ease. We were so grateful that, when our wedding was running overtime past the hours agreed to, she graciously offered to stay for an extra hour for an extremely reasonable rate.
Simply an amazing experience working with Michelle! From the start, she was highly detailed and helped guide us toward creating a perfect timeline. Michelle worked tirelessly to get the perfect shots, even through the July heat, and took the time to make sure my now-husband and I were kept hydrated throughout the photo taking. I highly recommend Michelle as she is attentive, extremely talented, and our wedding photos came out so beautifully. Our family and friends have been raving about the photos, and we couldn't agree more. Nothing but great things to say about Michelle!
Michele and her team were absolutely amazing. She is such a sweetheart and is phenomenal in what she does. She made our wedding day so seamless and captured all of our moments so beautifully. She is also so good in directing how to pose and where to stand so there will be no awkward pictures at all. I am so so happy we chose Michele for our wedding. She is worth every penny. We loved every single picture we have gotten back. I highly recommend getting her services. You will not be disappointed.
Michelle was FABULOUS! Her kind heartedness made it so easy for my husband and I during every minute. She pays great attention to detail to make sure the bride and groom are getting exactly what they dream of... & then provides such stunning work!!!! Grateful we found Michelle!
We work with Michelle all the time and she is absolutely TOP TIER! As a fellow wedding vendor I can confirm you are in the best of hands with her, THANK YOU for all you do!!!
Unbelievably organized, she made the day so much easier knowing she had everything handled. Her work is absolutely incredible! The photos are gorgeous, I’m so grateful I had the opportunity to work with Michelle. I will cherish these photos forever!
Michelle and her team were beyond incredible! As soon as she arrived on my wedding day, she made me feel at ease and so confident. She walked me and the wedding party through every pose and adjusted us as needed in order to create the perfect picture. When we received the final photo gallery back from her, I could not help but gasp in awe of how absolutely beautiful the photos were! It was like something out of a fairytale. The attention to detail and editing style are unmatched. She is not only a wedding photographer, but a true artist. I HIGHLY recommend working with Michelle!
Michelle is your girl!! She listened and worked with us to create the vision we wanted for our special day. We didn’t do a first look, which can make logistics more difficult, but Michelle and her colleague Rachel made a perfect schedule to ensure we got all the shots in our details without any compromising. We had a large (and rowdy) team of a wedding party, but both Michelle and Rachel kept everyone in line and on schedule. Michelle was professional, organized, kind and a great energy to have around! Her work is simply breathtaking and we cannot thank her enough for capturing our day! ❤️
I can't begin to express how wonderful and amazing Michelle is! My previous photographer cancelled on us 2 weeks out; I found Michelle on IG and she was incredibly responsive and thankfully, available on our day!! Michelle, jumped right in without hesitation and immediately took all my worries away with her bubbly personality and professionalism. From inception, Michelle went over each and every single detail, was early to meet us at the hotel, was great at being flexible with finding spots to shoot, and most importantly, the photos she captured were nothing short of perfect for our special day! Michelle is simply perfect!
8/5/2022 ~ My husband and I had the pleasure of meeting Michelle at a friend’s wedding that she helped to photograph before she second shot at our own wedding a week later. Michelle is so sweet and gently directed us how to pose both as guests and the bride/groom. She is the best dress fluffer, and her images are absolutely beautiful. Thank you so much, Michelle, for capturing memories that will last forever!
Michelle was punctual, organized, and so patient with my family. We were running late, and she was able to accommodate the pictures we had requested. She did an AMAZING job capturing all the details and memorable moments from the beginning in prep to the reception. The BEST!
Stop what you’re doing and book Michelle as your photographer! One of the best decisions we made for our wedding was booking Michelle as our photographer. From our very first meeting her energy was contagious, she was helpful in explaining her process & what the experience would be like working together, and it was clear how passionate she is about photographing people’s special moments.
We received endless compliments from our guests about how KIND our photographer was & how she managed to capture every moment & every photo opp so seamlessly. She was crucial in helping me with my day of timeline to ensure we were on schedule, got the photos I wanted, and coordinated with all of the other vendors so they were aligned as well. On the day of she was a force in the best way possible! She kept the day running smoothly, her and Rachel captured every moment - even the ones I wasn’t aware of! - and were true professionals when it came to working with a 16 person bridal party, 30+ immediate family members, almost 200 guests and multiple different vendors. Patience but with enough authority to keep things moving.
Now, how can I not mention THE PHOTOS. Our sneak peaks are absolutely stunning! Michelle easily coached us through posing so that we looked natural in front of the camera. The photo’s are beautiful, light, and romantic which was 100% the feeling I wanted captured from our wedding day. We will have these memories to cherish forever thanks to Michelle! THANK YOU!!
Michelle is AMAZING! She was there to document our wedding in November 2021 and we had the best time. She really worked hard to make sure everyone was comfortable throughout the whole process, which can be super awkward. I can't imagine having anyone else to go through this process with.
Once we got the photographs back, our friends and families were AMAZED by all of the pictures. Michelle was able to get all of the best moments of the day, including some great candid photos of our guests during the reception having a great time. My husband and I were both running around the reception the whole time, so it was great to be able to see those pictures of our friends and family enjoying the party as much as we were.
We would 10000% recommend Michelle to anyone looking for a photographer for any and every event. She really is the best!
Michelle was an absolute delight to work with for my sister's bridal shower. She went above and beyond to make the event special. Her photos are true works of art, and we will cherish them for a lifetime. Of Michelle's many outstanding attributes, including her supreme photography skills and authentic personality, her attention to detail stands out. Not only did she capture all of the details of the invitation suite and table scape, but she also capturing both staged and candid shots of every single guest in attendance. No one was missed! She surprised us with some amazing aerial shots taken from the upstairs window. We are incredibly thankful that she joined us for the special day! I recommend to everyone and anyone!
Michelle is the absolute best! Besides being an amazing photographer, she is alsoban amazing person! She made us feel comfortable during our engagement photoshoot and also taught us how to pose for photos! I would definitely recommend anyone to hire Michelle as your photographer! =)
I have anxiety so at first I dreaded a photo shoot focused on me, but I felt comfortable throughout the photo shoot and Michelle directed well. Michelle does anything to make the photo shoot work for you and your needs and that’s important in a photographer. The photos came out beautiful with a romantic feel that is my aesthetic. Great experience
From our first conversation with Michelle, we knew she was the right photographer for us. She is professional, knowledgeable, organized, totally flexible, and has a true eye/ talent that allows her to capture stunning photos. We thought we were hiring just a photographer but Michelle ended up effortlessly guiding us through our entire wedding planning process. She went above and beyond in helping us prepare for our day by giving us insight into things we never would’ve even thought about if it wasn’t for her such as a timeline for the day and little (but super important) details. I can’t rave enough about Michelle and the amazing service she offers as a photographer for your wedding or really any event or shoot you might be looking to hire her for. She captured our day to absolute perfection and if we were to do it all again, we’d pick Michelle again and again!
Michelle did our engagement session and was extremely professional and helpful throughout! She helped with locations, our attire, and preparing for the shoot beforehand. The day of she made us comfortable throughout the session, not to mention our photos came out beautiful. Highly recomment
Michelle is awesome and I think her work speaks for itself. We were drawn to how light and airy, almost fairytale-like, her photography is. Working with her was a treat; she is super fun to be with as well as easy to work with. Every picture we wanted was noted and addressed, her list was impressively detailed. Much to my surprise, Michelle was also a great resource helping us plan our big day, guiding us towards some random things we hadn’t thought about. Every part of our experience working with Michelle made us feel so special and thanks to her we have beautiful photos documenting our engagement and, most importantly, our wedding day. Love you, Michelle!
Michelle is PHENOMENAL. She is so thoughtful, and I now consider her a friend in addition to being our amazing wedding photographer. She meticulously planned out a shot list (including all little details like my brand of dress and my husband's cufflinks, etc.) with us before the big day, but was very open to feedback during the actual shoots, so it felt adaptable and not too rigid. She gives great direction without being "pushy," so everyone always feels comfortable and at ease while she's taking the more formal photos. In addition to that, she is so adept at getting those great candids, which turned out to be some of my favorite photos from the evening! Last but certainly not least, she just takes incredible photographs. I am beyond thrilled with how our wedding images came out, and I can't tell you how much (unprompted) feedback I got from guests at the wedding who not only said how stunning our portraits were, but Michelle also managed to get some amazing photos of our guests that they can now cherish. If I had to do the wedding over and over, I would choose Michelle every time!!
I don’t think it’s possible to say enough positive things about Michelle! From our engagement session, to our wedding, and everything in between, Michelle was right by our side guiding us to make sure we had the day we envisioned and everything went smoothly. For our engagement shoot, she gave us a few options and we chose a local place outdoors. We had to reschedule multiple times for rain and Michelle was so flexible with her and our schedules. Having different backdrops and textures was something we wanted and she had so many different perspectives in her photos...it was hard to even chose a favorite! For our wedding day, I made a mistake on the timeline of the day and Michelle seamlessly reworked the entire wedding day schedule and made me feel so relaxed and at ease. Other compliments I have about Michelle are that she worked so well with our videographer and other vendors and her presentation for her photo reveal was above and beyond. She also went above and beyond scouting out the wedding venue and reaching out to our other vendors to create our timeline for the wedding day. She was always communicating with us throughout the entire process and she just has an all around genuine and amicable personality! Our wedding would not have been the same without her there and five stars truly isn’t enough to give her.
