I have known these two for the majority of my life. As youngsters, Ben and I used to dominate as the most prolific quarterback/wide out duo in Mrs. D’s Daycare football history. Rachal is one of my Farrah’s dearest friends, and our big group of friends has had some incredible times over the years. When I got the news that these two were engaged, I actually emailed Rachal immediately and told her no matter what, I wanted to shoot her wedding. It was in rather poor taste, but I couldn’t help myself - I wanted to be a part of their day.
I had a great time - it was a really relaxed, beautiful day. Rachal and Ben are really low key, which put me at ease while I was doing my job. It was great you two - here’s to next time when we get to hang out.

Beautiful! I adore outside weddings and you captured the moments so well. I especially love the photos of the bride and groom looking at one another and of course the adorable flower girl. Great job, cant wait to see more of your work

This was the best day! Thanks Micheal for capturing our memories! Although I think the girls are the most BEAUTIFUL in the world, my favorite photo is the one of the orchids in the pool. I want a poster size of that! It just reminds me how calm, cool and serene the whole day was. I have had lots of terrific comments about your pictures, especially the bridals. Thank you for being a major part of THE BEST DAY!
Love you,

MJ, the pics are gorgeous, but of course, your subject matter was perfect! Awesome pics! You have truly reached a pinacle in photographic art and I can hardly wait for you to shoot Sarah and Chance’s nuptials in the next 10-15 years! Beautiful. Simply beautiful.

The photos are as beautiful as the day was (subject matter was pretty great too). I feel as though I’m looking @ a very upscale bridal magazine. Love all the pictures but specially the orchids in the pool and the one with Rachal’s head on Ben’s shoulder.
