Michelle Lawson Photography

We cannot say enough amazing things about Steve Lawson and his incredible team! From the moment they arrived, their energy was contagious, and they made sure that not only were my fiancé and I completely taken care of, but that our entire family felt excited and at ease. They truly went above and beyond—even stepping in to help with a last-minute shoe malfunction (lifesaver!). The level of professionalism, passion and attention to detail they brought to our special day was unmatched. They captured moments I didn’t even realize were happening, preserving memories that we will cherish forever. Their ability to find the most stunning angles for our first look, ceremony, reception, and those unforgettable dance floor moments blew us away. Looking through our photos, we were transported back to every laugh, tear, and joyful embrace. If you’re looking for a wedding photography team that is not only insanely talented but also fun, supportive, and genuinely invested in making your day perfect, look no further. Steve and his team are the best in the business! Thank you for giving us the most beautiful memories—we are forever grateful and will be sure to reach out with future photography needs!

Steve and Caleb at Michelle Lawson Photography were our wedding photographers and they were incredible! They brought such a great energy and took the most beautiful photos for us to remember our special day. Steve and Caleb are extremely professional, talented and fun! They captured every memorable moment for us and we couldn’t be happier with the photos. We also had many guests mention how impressed they were the photos and how much fun they had taking photos with Steve and Caleb. They truly went above and beyond in every way to make our wedding day memorable. We cannot recommend Michelle Lawson enough to capture your special memories ! Thank you Steve and Caleb!

Caleb photographed our October wedding and I can’t say enough about how professional and what a great eye he had. I’m not a natural in front of the camera and he was able to gently coach us both to be able to catch spectacular photos as well as the joy and emotion of our special day!! Caleb was great at picking spots and posing us as well as catching candid moments. He was super fun to work with and so professional! We got our photos in one week! Amazingly talented and the best experience!

We Absolutely Adore Michelle Lawson Photography! Steve is truly fantastic! We hired Steve Lawson for our engagement and wedding photography, and we couldn't have made a better choice. From the moment we met him, he felt like family. He expertly guided us throughout the day, bringing a wealth of wedding knowledge. Steve helped with everything from assisting with the dress to managing family members and keeping us on schedule. His team is incredibly professional and a joy to work with. On a day when we had a team following us around, we felt completely at ease. Steve has a wonderful sense of humor, and his services are very fairly priced, offering excellent quality. In the months leading up to the wedding, he became a trusted advisor, sharing valuable insights about other local vendors that made the planning process smoother. He captured both our photos and videos perfectly, preserving every moment in beautiful detail. These images are treasures that we will cherish forever!

We had the pleasure of having Steve Lawson from the Michelle Lawson team as our photographer, and yet again exceeded all our expectations! Steve's passion for photography and keen eye for detail were evident in every shot. He took the time to understand our vision and perfectly captured the moments we envisioned. Steve made us feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, guiding us with ease to ensure we looked our best. The photos turned out beautifully, capturing genuine moments and emotions. Including our dog in the photoshoot was important to us, and Steve did an amazing job making sure our boy was part of the experience. His patience and creativity shone through, resulting in perfect shots of our entire family. We highly recommend Steve for his exceptional talent, professionalism, and dedication. Thank you, Steve, for making our experience so memorable!

Steve and his team are the most amazing! All our guests, bridal party, everyone.. loved them. It absolutely poured from start to finish on our wedding day and Steve didn' t let it skip a beat and had so many amazing work arounds. It made us feel so at peace and made us not skip a beat either. We got our wedding photos back SO fast and are in love with ALL OF THEM. THE BEST!!! BOOK THEM

BEST IN THE GAME!!! In 2023 my (then) fiancé and I were in a total of EIGHT wedding parties, yes 8. One of the photographers that we had the pleasure of experiencing was Steve and his crew with Michelle Lawson Photography. After the wedding I told my best friend sent me the details nowww and I contacted Steve immediately. They were AMAZING. I didn’t even have to see her wedding photos to know I wanted them. Fast forward to our wedding. They killed it!!! If it weren’t for them I honestly feel like the day would have been a mess. They not only made my husband and myself feel comfortable in front of the camera, hyping us up and giving great direction they also kept us on time and organized. I felt like I had a wedding photographer and a planner in one! Steve was helpful in every sense. He even helped me bustle my dress which was a mission for my mom and bridesmaids. I will tell everyone that Michelle Lawson is the way to go and I will look at our photos and video and smile remembering not only how amazing and filled with love the day was but also how I felt in front of the camera not being someone who typically enjoys being the center of attention or knows what to do in photos. One thing about our photos that I love was not only them capturing the sweet moments between my husband and I but also the moments captured at the reception. The photos of us and our guests having a blast are so much fun. I think those might be what I frame and hang in our home. They captured our love for one another as well as the love we have with all of our family and friends. It was just perfect.

My husband and I cannot recommend Michelle Lawson Photography enough. Caleb and Rob shot our wedding, they were super fun, knowledgeable, easy to work with and just straight up outstanding guys. From the very start we had outstanding communication and planning. After the wedding we had extremely quick turnaround of all of our photos and videos. Every picture turned out AMAZING! I feel like they did not miss a single moment of the entire night! This team really went above and beyond for us. Going with Michelle Lawson was by far the best choice that we made for our wedding.

We got married in November, and I could not have asked for a better team to tackle our photo/video for our wedding. Steve was incredible to work with from the start, and he and his team are full of heart, passion, and love for what they do. They captured our day better than I could have imagined, and the addition of the photo wall was the best call/so fun! Steve has such a creative vision and made everyone feel so comfortable throughout the entire day, as did Jacob, Joshua, and Justus. There was not a moment I questioned my decision on photographers, and when I tell you that I can't even count how many guests came up to me to commend the Michelle Lawson Photography team, I truly mean it! And as a fun tip, if your bustle breaks/or does not look how you want it to, know that Steve will go to the end of the Earth to make sure it is perfect (including offering to sew something together for you!). Wedding photography is definitely not something you want to compromise on, and you certainly will not be disappointed if you book Michelle Lawson Photography! We can't wait to use them for maternity shoots, family photos, and beyond...they absolutely ROCK!

Steve and his team are truly amazing. Steve took our engagement photos a year before our wedding and everyone spoke about how he truly captured my (now) husband and I. Leading up to our wedding, he was always so quick to answer any questions I may have had and even created 2 timelines for me while we waited to hear if we could get into our venue early! The day of our wedding, Steve, Jacob (videographer) and the rest of the team made me feel so comfortable. They were a lot of fun to have around and most importantly so personable. They talk and joke with you all day. The team was so organized when it came to getting group photos and made sure everyone was comfortable. The way Steve coordinated for us to get photos with every table during the reception was brilliant. It was not rushed and I felt like I was able to say hello to everyone! I could go on and on about Steve, Jacob and the rest of the team. They truly are the best! We cannot wait for our photos and video!

My husband and I are both camera shy and Steve made sure we were comfortable the whole time! Steve and his team are so easy going and make sure you get the best photos! I laughed the whole day with them they are truly the best! My husband and Steve got along so well and bonded Steve’s boots lol both Steve and his boots are 10/10! The team was amazing and constantly making sure I was happy and didn’t need anything! Steve even put my viel on for me! Who can say that about their photographer?? Can’t wait to work with them in the future! They are truly great people personally and professionally

Michelle Lawson Photography is the ABSOLUTE BEST! We were so blown away by our wedding pictures and video. We could not have found a better company to capture our special day! Steve and Rob were such a pleasure to work with and they definitely helped make the day fun and easy!! Thank you guys from the bottom of our hearts!! 💗

Steve Lawson and his team at Michelle Lawson Photography are THE BEST! From communication to creative he was on top of it all! From our engagement session, leading up to the wedding Steve was in constant communication with us and making sure we were comfortable on a day filled with so many emotions. When we didn’t know where to stand or how to look, Steve was there ready to point us in the perfect direction, all with a smile on his face and an incredible attitude. Steve and his team were able to blend in and capture every moment perfectly. If you’re looking for the perfect photography and/or videography team to capture your special moments, then you’ve already found your vendor!! He delivered quality results so quickly and they are spectacular. Not a moment was missed! Steve will forever be my go to for any and all occasions. Thank you Steve Lawson and your INCREDIBLE TEAM for making this magical day, even more magical.

WOW. There are not enough words to describe how amazing our experience with Michelle Lawson Photography was. Rob…. What a character. He and Triana got there early and stayed the whole night with us. Rob made us feel so comfortable and he literally was part of our party. Nothing but great vibes from the moment he arrived. His energy is the type of energy EVERY photographer should have. I couldn’t have imagined a better team to capture our special day. He kept us hyped the whole night and he was jamming out with us. You could tell how passionate he truly is about his work. His vision is unmatched. Rob’s personality will leave a mark on everyone. My entire family and all of our guests were raving about how wonderful our photographer was and asking how I found him. From the beginning when we began planning our timeline I remember Rob being so easy going and hopping on a call with me that lasted about an hour and a half just so we can get the timeline on point. He has such an attention to detail and his work is impeccable. Needless to say, he even helped me bustle my dress. He can literally do pretty much anything. Rob is truly a gem. I’ll never forget how fun it was to see him immerse himself in our wedding with our family and guests. He was dancing with us the whole time and snapping away every picture he can get. Huge thank you to him and Triana. 10/10 recommend. Can’t imagine going anywhere else!

Michelle Lawson Photography is the best!! I first met them at a wedding vendor showcase and they immediately made me feel special and matched my excitement for the big day. My photographer was Rob and he was such a joy to work with! He was with us for ELEVEN HOURS and his energy was 12 out of 10 the entire time. He makes everyone feel so comfortable and created such a welcoming, vibrant atmosphere. The night of my wedding he even air dropped us dozens of photos which was so amazing to see so quickly! I was so incredibly happy with how the photos turned out and the editing - they are so talented. And also such a great value - you can share your album link with any of your friends and family and they can download all pictures themselves at no additional cost. Thank you Rob for capturing the best day of our lives!!

There are too many good things I want to write about Michelle Lawson photo to fit into just 3500 characters! To start, I need to give a big shout out to my main photographer ROB!! He was an absolute ball of energy from the moment he arrived to the minute we said good night. He kept us all so hyped for the entire day and during the reception while we were partying he was working on getting us a sneak peak of our photos which were absolutely gorgeous! His assistant Tiana for the night, who is more than just a pretty face, helped capture my dad's reaction during our daddy-daughter first look as well as my handsome groom's reaction while I was walking down the aisle. We also got a Photo Booth for our big day and let me tell you... That was the BEST idea ever! Michelle Lawson's photo booths are not robot-operated. They are manned by an actual photographer who gets great shots and gives your guests a print out. Worth every penny. HIRE THEM!
