We hired Michelle and Bill for our elopement. She was the first photographer that I found that I had that *OHHHHHH!! THIS ONE* thought. I showed my other half and he said lets cont...act them and see what package they would have for us. We knew what we wanted. I wrote a long list of questions and when we had a meeting with Michelle she was able to answer all my questions, some times even two or three at once because she is detailed and covers everything! We decided to give them the yes! This was the best decision we made for this process. She kept good communication with us, scheduled a "we are a week out lets catch up and answer questions" with us. She literally asked me about certain things that I had not even thought about! Again, she is REALLY detailed.
Day of the elopement and nothing was going to plan. My makeup artist was over an hour late which put me super late getting to our location. But Michelle and Bill worked with us and were super awesome through the whole thing! Michelle helped me get my dress on, helped me hike down to the overlook, made sure my hair and makeup were on point. Michelle held on to my makeup touch up bag in case I needed it and truly showed she isn't JUST the photographer. She is a photographer, coordinator and a wedding planner/assistant all in one! I have worked with other photographers at weddings back when I was studying photography and none of the ones I worked with were like Michelle! They were strictly business! Michelle is completely opposite! She is warm, inviting, kind and a major help! Especially when it came to helping my husband and I stay calm through the process when things were not working to the plan.
While my focus was mostly with Michelle, Bill was there doing videography and it was such a delight working with him as well! I can say the same about Bill as I did about Michelle. Warm, inviting, kind and very focused to getting amazing footage! I cant wait to see the footage he got of our special day and what he does with it! My husband says "Bill was top notch and made me feel at ease. He was very warm and welcoming throughout the whole process. These two are stellar and would be a great pick for anyone planning an elopement or wedding!" After our ceremony we hiked down to the waterfall to take the rest of our photos and video, they could have easily packed up and hiked out without us as their job was done. But they took their time and hiked out with us instead. Michelle even helped me get out of my wedding dress in the middle of the hiking trail to make my hike back up easier on me. This truly was more than just a business transaction.
10/10 We recommend you choose Michelle and Bill for your big day! We also will be booking them again when we do our friends and family celebration because I would not trust our day of celebration with ANYONE else at this point! We even want to book with them again in the future to do family photos!
