Hi! I’m Mike!
In my 13+ years of working as a New Orleans wedding photographer, I’ve been called a photo ninja, a magician, and a friend by the wonderful clients I’ve worked with.
I’m a follower of the mantra “Be Excellent to Each Other,” and if my long list of the incredible people I’ve had the opportunity to meet and work with is any indication, you receive what you put out into this world! Learn More
Recent Clients are saying :
“For me, making a decision on a photographer wasn’t just about the final photos, it was about what I wanted the day to feel like. I’ve been to weddings where the entire day feels like a photo shoot, and we wanted the exact opposite. Mike delivered perfectly. He integrated seamlessly into the day, letting us just do our thing while capturing everything naturally. It worked out beautifully.”
