Prior to contacting me, please take a moment to review my photography services. You can find my portfolio through a Google search of my name, Michael Keel Photography/website, where you will see my natural style that is free of excessive edits. If my work fits your needs, please do not hesitate to reach out to me.
For 16+ years, I have worked full-time as a wedding photographer and corporate event photographer, having traveled around the world. I am experienced in the wedding industry and understand the art of capturing genuine moments on a busy wedding day. Please provide the hours needed, city, and venue when contacting me.
Don't worry if you are camera shy - I am easy to work with and understand your concerns. As a fellow photographer who dislikes being photographed, I can help you relax and offer guidance during our shoot. My ultimate goal is to create a visual representation of the emotions of your special day, capturing balanced, beautiful, and consistent images.
What sets my photography apart is my use of film and focus on genuine moments. I aim to capture the perfect shot in-camera, using Lightroom for minor adjustments and Photoshop for major corrections only. It is important to me that the artistic side of each photo is personally edited by the photographer who shot it. I do not use fake filters and meticulously edit each photo with my personal touch.
Please keep in mind that while I will happily edit out blemishes and make minor color corrections, I cannot alter your physical appearance. My photography style focuses on capturing real, beautiful moments of laughter, smiles, tears, and love. If this is the type of photography you are looking for, I am your photographer.

Last November, Michael was the photographer for our wedding and rehearsal dinner, and I couldn't have been happier with the outcome. The images are stunning and accurately reflect the atmosphere of the entire day! I was seeking a photographer who could capture spontaneous moments rather than heavily posed photos, and Michael did precisely that. Moreover, he has a delightful sense of humor, is compassionate, and a pleasure to collaborate with. I would strongly urge you to hire him for your wedding or any other important occasion.

During our wedding celebration, Michael proved to be an exceptional photographer. He was amiable, polite, and always on time. His ability to work with us was commendable as he provided us with necessary instructions while also maintaining a fun and relaxed environment. His photographs were simply amazing, and we couldn't be happier with the result. I highly recommend him to anyone searching for an outstanding photography experience.

Michael was the photographer we selected for our early 2022 wedding. From the start, he was quick to respond and provided thorough answers to any of my inquiries. His experience was evident in his professionalism and calm demeanor. He effortlessly interacted with our wedding party, guests, and family. Michael's upfront communication was a significant factor in our decision to work with him. He felt like a familiar friend, who prioritized capturing genuine moments over being a "photoshop" photographer. We would gladly choose Michael again should we need photography for another significant occasion.

Our newborn family photo session was a huge success, thanks to Michael's phenomenal photography skills. Despite the challenges of an uncooperative baby, he managed to capture stunning shots of our family that we will treasure forever. Thank you so much!
