What People Are Saying

  • There are absolutely not enough words in the world for how incredible Michele is! I hired her as our wedding photographer through a recommendation of our vendor, and I couldn't be more thrilled that I did. She is so down to earth, professional, and easy to work with. After I introduced her to my bridesmaids for the getting ready photos, it wasn't until about half an hour later that I learned they all thought she was a personal friend of mine and not a photographer I hired! That just goes to show how warm and friendly she is and how she makes you feel so comfortable and at ease taking photos right off the bat. I also have a knack for taking terrible photos, and told Michele this during our phone call prior to the wedding, and she helped give me tips for posing, etc. throughout the entire day to make sure I was looking my best which I so so appreciated! She really went above and beyond to capture every aspect of the night as well as assisting with congruity throughout the event due to her extensive knowledge and experience with weddings. I truly felt like I won the jackpot deciding to go with Michele as our wedding photographer and can't recommend her enough for anyone else in the area. Thank you again, Michele! You rock!

  • I could not imagine my wedding without Michele. She was very thorough in her process she made me think a lot about my details and what I really cared about having pictures of to make sure she captured all those special moments. She gave me so much guidance, great ideas, and she made me and my husband look amazing on our special day. You can tell she a true, experienced professional; she really thinks of it all. She was very easy to access if/when I had questions and her personality really make working with her a breeze, not awkward at all even if you have never been professionally photographed before. I was very grateful for all she did on our wedding day, like rounding up people, making sure everyone looked amazing and put together in pictures by adjusting us as we photographed, and making sure we stuck to the schedule. The icing on the cake was how affordable her pricing is. I don't think I could have met a better photographer. She has definitely earned herself a repeat customer and all the referrals I can muster.

Michele great in many ways: professional when called for and light and fun when that was needed as well. she clearly has experience dealing with the wedding day jitters and had a very nice way of getting the very best photographs out of people. we would highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding! she is fantastic!

  • This review is much overdue, but Michele is the best. My fiancé hired her to photograph his proposal last December at the Living Desert, and he made such a great choice! She was totally discreet (I had no idea she was there until after the proposal), and had absolutely no complaints about hiking out into the desert backcountry where he got down on one knee. Afterwards, we had tons of fun walking around the zoo and taking more photos. On top of all that, I couldn't believe how quickly she got our edited photos to us, and they turned out amazing! Can't thank Michele enough for capturing such a special day so beautifully.

  • Michele is a dream to work with. She made our family holiday shoot of 10 (including two babies and a dog) a fun event. We have more photos than we can ever use and it will be difficult to pick our favourites. She is easy going and we got our photo album so quickly! She is also very generous allowing full access to all photos. We will definitely be using Sola Fide Photography again!
