“Having a good photographer was crucial to me and my husband. As soon as we had a wedding date and our venues, we started researching photographers. Based on online reviews and the quality of work, my husband and I interviewed three photographers. Michael at Michael Chadwick Photography was the clear winner for both of us. The quality of Mike’s work is clear. We looked at several different weddings he shot and appreciated the mix of detail shots, formal shots, candid shots – all crisp and artistically done. In addition to loving his pictures, Mike was such a pleasure to be with. We felt that he understood what we wanted to capture in our pictures, and he was a joy to be around. He has a calming presence and made us laugh. We had our engagement shoot about 6 months before the wedding. We loved the moments Mike was able to capture, and he was really fun to hang out with. I was thrilled when we got our pictures – they were absolutely beautiful. As our wedding approached we had lots of communication with Mike. I gave him a very detailed list of photos I wanted that day and instead of being offended that I was trying to hamper his artistic view, he welcomed the information. Mike and his second shooter Sheldon arrived ahead of schedule the day of and got right to work. They knew the names of all the principal people at our wedding and were incredibly pleasant to be around. Everyone thought they were great. They worked tirelessly for about 12 hours that day and were always enthusiastic and focused. Having good wedding pictures is crucial in helping to preserve the memories of that day. Mike did a phenomenal job and I would recommend working with him without hesitation. The best part of all is that we found his prices to be very reasonable given the quality product received.”

“We hired Michael to be our wedding photographer for our wedding on June 9, 2012. We researched and met several other photographers when we were looking, but I had a good gut feeling about him when I was communicating back and forth via e-mail. We knew he was the right photographer for us when my husband and him bonded over movies, etc on our first meeting and I couldn’t get them to focus! lol He was always really friendly and professional. He responded back to e-mails and questions usually within minutes (faster than any other vendor!!!) which to any Bride planning her wedding we all know is extremely important. Especially if you are making decisions quickly that are based upon other aspects of the day. Originally we did not really want to do an engagement photo shoot because we weren’t really sure where we would use the photos, but he insisted and we were really happy we did. It really gave us some time before the wedding to get comfortable in front of the camera and be comfortable with Michael as well. We booked him for a full day with a second photographer. The 2nd photographer was also amazing. He was calm and friendly and always seemed to be taking photos from all different angles which is what we were really looking for. They both worked their butts off for us (our day started at 10am!) and were still going strong at 10pm. I couldn’t believe how they were not only still standing taking photo’s but still had smiles on their faces because they were having a great time doing it. Michael is a photographer because he truly loves taking photos, which is refreshing and amazing to see, and it shows in his photos. Unlike some other jaded wedding photographers, that show up, take the standard shots, and go home at exactly the minute after their hired time ends. If you’re looking for great photographs taken by a passionate and friendly photographer then Michael Chadwick Photography is your vendor! The prices are also really great, especially for the area. With the research we did, they came in at the most competitive price, and in my opinion with the best photographs.”

I look forward to working with him again & again & highly recommend Michael Chadwick Photography to ALL couple from everywhere!!!”

“Michael photographed our wedding in New York City in June 2012. He came recommended from another friend and we couldn’t be happier! From the start, he was a pleasure to work with, explained his process carefully and listened to what we wanted. We did photos in several locations around the city and he was great in coming up with ideas and practical suggestions to make the most of our time together. I received so many compliments from guests after the wedding how much they enjoyed interacting with Michael. The photos were done in less than a month and were gorgeous! We love looking at them and he truly created memories that will last a lifetime. Michael has a great, easy-going demeanor and was very approachable and a pleasure to work with. We would recommend him.”

“I cannot recommend Michael Chadwick Photography highly enough. From the first meeting to the final delivery of our photos I knew I was interacting with a pro. My husband and I had a fairly non-traditional wedding and despite some day-of changes (we were supposed to get married on the Wonder Wheel at Coney Island, Brooklyn but the fresh paint on the wheel hadn’t dried so we moved the ceremony to the boardwalk) Michael Chadwick handled everything with a smile and made me feel relaxed and confident. He even made my mother want to take photos! And when we sat down to look over the prints I was speechless. His work is amazing and I am so grateful. He captured our day and personalities perfectly. I laughed and cried while looking through the photos and keep going back to them, thinking I dreamed how great they are or am still in that “post-wedding glow”. No. He is just that good. I also booked hair and make-up through him and I have to say, I’ve never felt more beautiful, more glamorous. That is, until I saw the way Michael captured me during the wedding. Beyond the breathtaking photos and awesome shots of our friends and family shaking it on the dance floor (including a fantastic shot of me in mid-air, how does he DO THAT??), Michael was so accommodating, so joyous and so … calm. It was like having another, dear friend celebrate with us. I am so very glad he was our photographer. Thank you, thank you, thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.”

“Michael was excellent on the day of our wedding. He was very attentive making sure to get every shot. Before the day of the ceremony we were able to organize and discuss every possible shot that we may have wanted on the day of our wedding. Michael was very happy to accommodate all of our requests. We are very happy with the end result. We were very happy with our engagement photography as well. We really wanted our engagement photography to take place in two locations. We took pictures in central park and long beach, long island. All of pictures from both locations came out extremely beautiful. Any events that I have in the future I will definitely call Michael to see if he is available to work his magic. He was the absolute best!”

“I am so in love with my wedding photos that I’ve become the girl who tries to show them to people in line at any store! Michael Chadwick is the reason for that! He is a very knowledgeable photographer and knew the best lighting, backdrop, and positions for our photos. I was especially impressed with his professionalism. He’s very efficient and accessible. He responded promptly to my emails and suggestions for must-have photos. He’s willing to work with you and achieve the shots you want, so you let him know exactly what you like and don’t like. Also, not only is he very reasonably priced, but we received our CD in the mail and access to our photos online within two weeks after the wedding. Planning a wedding is not an easy task! If you are looking for high quality photos without the hassle, I would strongly recommend Michael Chadwick Photography! Thank you Michael, we have beautiful pictures to remember our amazing day!”

“I cannot say enough about Michael Chadwick, Michael Chadwick Photography. When I first set out to enlist vendors, my main request was anyone who attended my wedding feel like a guest since I wanted a low-key, family friendly atmosphere.We exchanged emails and met in person one time, and I never once felt compelled to shop around for someone else to photograph our big day. Michael truly became another guest with a camera, and completely captured the essence of what I imagined our day to be all about. All our pictures have a natural, in the moment feel, and that was exactly what I hoped for. I was nervous about any staged shots, I feel so unnatural staging poses, but Michael had us all at ease, laughing and enjoying ourselves that at times, I forgot we were being photographed, it felt so simple! We were absolutely thrilled with the finished product-the zenfolio, the DVD, even the case for the DVD! Every time I think I found my favorite picture, I find 3, 4, 5 more! I highly recommend Michael Chadwick Photography to anyone looking for great quality and service on your very special day!”

“Michael has a wonderful feeling for the couple: mine came from Holland to get married here in the City. He made them feel important and cared for since they had neither family nor friends with them. And the rainy day caused its own problems, but not for Michael! The couple got gorgeous pictures, and the wedding planner in Holland feels comfortable to book him again. Good luck, Michael, and my best wishes.”

“We hired Michael for our wedding in NYC. Coming from the UK it was really important to have the contact before to ensure that all would run smoothly. We could not have been happier with the service that Mike (the photographer) provided. He was personable, attentive, understanding and provided humour throuhout his time with us. There was not one person in the wedding party who was not impressed or did not comment on how impressed they were with our choice. Thank you for capturing such an important moment in our lives. We have recently receieved the photos, they are fantastic and I would highly recommend this service.”

“Mike Chadwick is great!! He worked out a great package for us, that was perfect for our budget. He is super talented, and chooses to work with very talented people as well. When Creative Chadwick Arts came to shoot the photos day of my wedding, they were professional, courteous and on schedule. Since then we have seen our pictures and they are more beautiful than I could have imagined they would be! Super talented!! I highly recommend!”

“From the moment I called Michael to ask initial questions and see if he was available to the time he sent our disc of photos, he was professional, personable and wonderful! He took superb photos before, during and after the ceremony and during the dinner. He put everyone at ease throughout the day! Every guest said he was wonderful. Michael never got in the way at any point. We have been enjoying his spectacular photography since April. Michael, thanks for capturing all those moments! It is fun going through all the photos and saying wow, I did not remember that moment!”

“We hired Michael Chadwick of Michael Chadwick Photography to take photos at our wedding on April 22, 2012 and to do an engagement shoot. After meeting with Michael the first time to look at some of his work, we decided to hire him. Not only was his portfolio fantastic, but we could tell right away that he was going to be amazing to work with. He truly had a passion for photography, but was also receptive to ideas about what types of photos we wanted taken (too many photographers have a cookie-cutter system of the type of photos that they like to shoot – not Michael Chadwick!). Here, we knew we would be getting personal attention. We had our engagement shoot in Central Park. Michael spent a lot of time with us, wandering around the park for that perfect shot – luckly we got many of them! My husband and I were both a little nervous and not really experienced with having professional photos taken, but Michael made it such fun! We spent all morning laughing. At the same time, he got some wonderful pictures of my husband and I just enjoying each other’s company. Before the wedding, Michael had us complete a questionnaire about who in particular we wanted photos with, who was traveling from long distances etc. I was amazed the day of that he had gotten everyone down and recognized very quickly who everyone was. At the end of the day, he was pointing out to me the people that I had yet to take photos with who were on his list. He has a knack for remembering faces and names and picked up right away on the people that were closest to us. Many of our guests commented about how nice he was, and how he seemed to float in and out to get a picture but not be in the way. My mother in law in particular loved him (as did my husband and I). I guess all I can say in closing is that if you want a top notch photographer with a great personality (and great customer service skills!), Michael Chadwick is your man! Thank you Michael! Michael was so nice and easy to work with. He is very responsive to email and will answer any question that you have about pictures, lighting, angles, etc. no matter how trivial.”

"From the first meeting Michael has felt like a close friend or family member. He is so nice to work with and on top of EVERYTHING! A few weeks before our wedding, he even emailed to notify us of a "super moon" occuring the night of our celebration. We just received the pictures back and they could not be more perfect! We absolutely love and highly recommend!!" - Jennifer and Raymond

"This was a great email to get tonight. Adam and I had a blast looking through the photos! There are some really great ones like us on the Brooklyn Bridge and in the park. We have so much to choose from. The overall experience was great and we thank you for helping us to feel completely comfortable in front of the camera." - Samantha and Adam, on their engagement session

"My husband and I both really love photography and are especially sentimental, so when it came to our wedding, finding the right photographer was a top priority. We wanted to find a person with the right combination of skill and personality to make our guests (and us) feel comfortable, allowing for tangible memories of that perfect day. Well, we were thanking him before we even got the pictures. He was with our party from early in the morning well into the evening, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was attentive to every detail, and yet had an easy-going and relaxed approach that had our guests immediately asking us to see our pictures. We received our pictures promptly and Michael was always accessible and eager to help. Michael went above and beyond in making our wedding an unbelievable and beautiful experience. As I was getting ready in the morning, happily anxious for the days events to unfold, I noticed my dress wasn’t as snug as it needed to be. Before I knew it, Michael had ran to CVS and purchased white close-pins. This illustrates how Michael works; he is the perfect blend of being a part of the wedding yet still able to take a step back to capture every detail. We could go on and on about how wonderful Michael was to work with, his helpfulness throughout the entire process and the quality of the pictures we received. Michael was genuinely a rockstar and we would STRONGLY recommend him to everyone. Thanks again Michael!" - Joyce and Andrew

"I saw Michael's information on The Knot's website and thought that he would be perfect for our wedding. The moment we met him we knew that he would fit our day perfectly. So professional and calm. The photos are just beautiful. He was attentive without being intrusive. We got the photos that we love without feeling like we had to stop during the reception and get our picture taken every other minute. In short, we actually got to enjoy our reception AND have lovely photos too. I would highly recommend Michael. He was just great to work with." - Margaret and Richard

"After hearing so many horror stories from friends about their wedding photographers (not showing up, withholding photographs for more money etc.), I was more nervous about this process than any other wedding-related task. It turns out that I worried over nothing b/c Mike Chadwick was wonderful! He and his assistant showed up right on time and immediately put everyone at ease. Our wedding party is still talking about how funny and laid-back he is. All of the 600+ pictures he took of the day's events were so amazing that it was hard for us to pick only a few to put in our album. Mike really went above and beyond. At the end of the evening, rather than just jetting off, he made sure to stop and ask us if there were any other pictures we wanted him to get, and waited a good 1/2 hour after that just in case something came up. Though we got married during the busy Fall wedding season, he remembered that we wanted to have our album ready in time to take on a visit to my husband's family overseas two months later. We really appreciated his responsiveness, thoughtfulness and attention to detail. I would highly recommend to any future brides and grooms out there."

"An excellent choice! Michael Chadwick and his associates were a wonderful choice for our big day. Michael and his partner were extremely professional, creative, detail oriented and patient. As the day and night went fast, I was so appreciative to have Michael's pictures to help me recapture all of the magical and fun moments of the wedding. Michael told a story with his photos and created a storybook that I will remember forever. His prices and packages are affordable and we got our pictures back quickly. Thank you Michael and associates for your great service!"

"I can't thank you enough for helping us capture Our Special Day. I had a fantastic time and with thanks to you, I kept reminding myself to "just breathe" lol. Michael Chadwick Photography is definitely a vendor I would recommend as Michael is truly professional, prepared and compromising on the services he offers. His prices are reasonable and results speak for themselves. The photos came out fantastic and our metal print was truly what it was intended to be: a modern, edgy, beautiful keepsake. Looking forward to sharing the rest of my photos with my family and friends."

"I highly recommend Mike Chadwick for your wedding pictures. I am not a fan of getting my picture taken, but Mike was able to put me at ease and give me a few pointers to make me more comfortable. He made sure to ask all the right questions during our meeting and to get all of the pictures that we wanted. He offers a variety of reasonably priced packages and different albums and works with you to pick the right ones. We were thrilled with how our photos came out. You cannot go wrong by choosing Chadwick Arts for your wedding"

"Michael Chadwick gave my husband and me a great gift by agreeing to photograph our wedding in July. His jovial AND professional presence made sure the emotion of the day was celebrated while not getting in the way of taking great photos. Mike took charge when necessary, but also handled with grace the many opinions my family (and myself) had to offer. With less time than we anticipated to take photos, he moved quickly without rushing anyone or missing some fantastic candid moments. I felt comfortable "playing" during the photo shoot moments because I knew I could trust Mike-a person of integrity and great talent."

"I do not know where to begin - Michael Chadwick Photography was simply amazing!! We read about Michael Chadwick on theknot.com and contacted him for a meeting. Not only did he make himself available at our convenience, he was incredibly nice, friendly & prepared. We signed with him right away! He would even followed up periodically as our big day approached. On the day of our wedding, he was very organized and, from previous correspondences, knew exactly what kind of pictures we wanted to take and with whom. He was so professional, funny and accommodating (even when the bride was a tad late). I would highly recommend Michael Chadwick Photography. If you are looking for a dependable, energetic and quality photographer -you found it! Thank you, Michael Chadwick Photography, for beautifully capturing the greatest day of our lives!!"

"John and I think you did an amazing job. Our family and friends expressed so many times on how they thought you were so personable, precise, and charming. You helped to keep the day pleasant and I loved your 'New Yorker' take charge attitude. You really captured the fun, love, and unity of the entire day. I also liked the fact that I could always find you, but I think the 6'6″ height played a role in that. Much thanks and love!"

"I would Recommend Mike as a NYC TOP NOTCH photographer for anyone seeking photography coverage and true capture of the moment! He is the most amazing artistic photographer I have met , all is work is outstanding , he takes care of every little detail, willing to capture every thing non-stop, he has a smile all the time on his face making everyone comfortable and happy. Besides all that, he is a very punctual and accurate person .. I had my arrangements with him all over the email as I had a destination engagement and never got to meet him before I got to New Jersey for my engagement. He is really amazing .. and I will definitely get him for my wedding if I decide to do it in the NY area next year!"

"Finding a wedding photographer like Mike of Michael Chadwick Photography was a dream come true. His rates are reasonable to allow you to get dream photos no matter what your budget. He arrived at our venue which was out of state, Pennsylvania on time so no worries there. We contracted him for getting ready, wedding and reception shots. He took gorgeous photos!!!!! I was worried about how i would look in the pictures. I'm not the best at picture taking but the shots are effortlessly beautiful. Everyone remarks how gorgeous our photos are. We are extremely pleased with the memories we will forever have of our day. We received a beautiful case with our digital photos and it is convenient to be able to print at our leisure. It is nice to have in our possession all the pictures taken, we have every little moment. Mike had a great sense of humor which helps the bridal party get through the tedious task of taking photos. On his website, he does a spotlight of your wedding which you can post on facebook and people can get a glimpse of your day. Working with Mike was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend him. For any future event we would hire him without hesitation. You will get someone professional, easy to work with and who will produce a beautiful product for you to forever cherish."

"We were very fortunate to have had Michael photograph our wedding ceremony. He was a pleasure to work with-he was so forthcoming, flexible and friendly when we met him before the ceremony that we immediately felt at ease about the photography for our ceremony. Michael is that rare photographer that is able to perfectly balance being inconspicuous while capturing the more candid shots with being able to make ones guests feel instantly comfortable for the more posed pictures with his warm and outgoing demeanor. On the day of our ceremony, our family (as were we) were very impressed by his professionalism, geniality, and skill at navigating the room in order to capture that perfect picture. Michael delivered the pictures promptly and we couldn't be happier with the way the photographs turned out-he was able to capture the tone and the essence of our ceremony to a T! Not only is Michael a people person but he is also a dog person which was fantastic because he was able to take the most fabulous pictures of our canine companion who played an important role on our wedding day!"

He responded to any and all emails immediately, was completely professional at our event (and helped keep me calm and collected as well!), and got along famously with our friends and family! We received our beautiful photos promptly after returning from our honeymoon and were just so pleased with them. His rates are very reasonable as well. I couldn't recommend him more!"

"There are no words good enough to describe the amazing talent, the sincere warmth and genuine caring that Michael exuded before and during my wedding day. From the first moment I met him, I liked him and after I our first meeting I felt that he just 'got me' - He understood everything I wanted and needed to capture on my most important day. I will forever be grateful for my beautiful photos!! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

"My husband & I had the pleasure of having Michael photograph our wedding on 2-19-11 at the reBar in Bklyn, NY. We were sold by our first meeting with Michael. He was very personable and professional. (Plus, we learned he is a fellow runner, a BIG plus!). We were very impressed with his sense of professionalism throughout the entire experience. It was very evident in his work. He was very accessible, responsive to any and all inquiries, and quick to produce the final product. Thank you, MIchael. You rock! P.S. The price was also super affordable."

"Michael was the photographer for my wedding and hands down he made it the success that it was. He was professional and easy to get ahold of, both before and after the wedding. He showed us how to keep our photos natural and fun. When I saw the photos I couldn't have been happier; they were exactly what I wanted. Michael took the time to figure out what we were looking for prior to our wedding and helped us choose the locations for the photos. Michael dealt gracefully with some complicated family issues, although none of them knew that since he did such a great job! I would very highly recommend Michael Chadwick Photography for anyone getting married in New York- you will not be disappointed!"

"I was very impressed and happy with both Michael's talent and personality. He is very easy going and everyone at my wedding loved him, and so did I. He is extremely professional, and you can count on him for prompt responses to all of your questions. I recommended using him for your event, I couldn't have found someone better! Dear Michael, thank you for the amazing work that you have done! It is greatly appreciated, I am so happy with everything! "

"I have to speak on behalf of my new hubby and I and say that Michael Chadwick by far was the most amazing photographer we have ever worked with. Not only was he professional but he was so down to earth that all our guest felt like he was just a friend at the wedding. I highly recommend him for all functions as you will see his work is truly amazing. Michael, thank you so much for being a part of our wedding day, we couldn't have been happier with you. Every one of our family and friends all said how great and friendly you were and we really appreciate that. It actually felt like having a friend at the wedding more then just a photographer we hired."

"Michael Chadwick had some really great packages that were more affordable than the other photographers we looked at. We were impressed by his previous work when we met with him and were comfortable with him so we booked him. Michael did our engagement photo shoot in Central Park and our wedding. Both sets of pictures came out great. He is really good at getting candid shots. It also helps that he is really tall so he can always get a good photo!! I love the photo slide show he created to me and my husband's favorite songs. He also hosts the photos on his website so your friends and family can order photos directly. Overall, we had a really wonderful experience working with Michael. I would highly recommend him. In fact, my best friend just booked him for her wedding!!"

"From the first meeting, my husband-to-be and I felt immediately comfortable trusting Michael with our wedding photography, arguably one of the most important elements of the day. He is confident and experienced, which put us at ease, but also extremely friendly and personable, and very willing to accommodate our wishes and needs. On the wedding day, Michael stayed extremely calm and professional throughout, even when others (e.g., me, the bride) were somewhat tense and frazzled. We ended up with a wide selection of wonderful shots, all conveniently posted on his website for viewing and purchasing and on our own CD. His price was very reasonable, and we particularly liked that you could customize your package options- we were able to add on a few hours to the basic package, which worked out very well. We also took advantage of his hair and makeup package for myself and the bridal party, and were extremely happy with the work of our stylist, Christie. All in all, we were very happy with Michael and his work, and would heartily recommend his services to others planning their wedding!"
- Kathryn and Michael

"Mike is a very attentive and proactive photographer who was able to take the challenges the location space provided and turn them into beautiful advantages. He was able to coax genuine smiles from everyone from taciturn Midwestern family members, hard-bitten and jaded New Yorkers, and even this distracted bride! The end results have spawned numerous personalize photobooks for friends and family and a steady stream of requests for more and more photos. Mike is a consummate professional, brings an artist's joy to the work, and provides a scale of services that fit a tight budget without skimping on the quality. In short - highly recommended!"
- Jessica and Andrew

"What a beautiful job Michael did capturing the most intimate & joyous parts of our day! He will be our family photographer for years to come!"

"Michael was professional, courteous, and thorough; at the same time, he felt like part of the wedding party. Our guests approached us during and after the wedding with nothing but compliments for him. He was great at capturing candid shots as well as the photos we needed. We are delighted with the pictures and highly recommend Michael for any occasion."

"After meeting with several photographers we ultimately chose Michael and he was a great choice. He has a wide range of packages starting from $1000, and you can add different options (ie albums) later on as needed. He was nice to work with and not over bearing at all. We just received our pictures and everyone loved them. I was very happy with my decision to use Michael Chadwick Photography as my photographer at my wedding in Aug 2010. Mike is extremely pleasant to work with and very understanding of your own unique needs. He does not inflate his prices with a bunch of "extras" that you did not want or need. He is very flexible in customizing your package to get exactly what you want. Before, during and after the wedding he was very accessible in answering any question or concerns you had about you wedding photos. He is also very organized to make sure he gets all the photos that you want on your wedding day. On the day of the wedding Mike has a very relaxed approach to taking pictures. He a very good approach to getting you and your entire bridal party comfortable in front of the camera, so that your pictures (especially the posed ones) come out looking natural. The proof is definitely in the pictures. Just take a look at the pictures on his website and you will see how great he is at his job. A year later I am still getting compliments about my wedding pictures."

"From our first meeting over a year ago, I knew MIchael was the perfect candidate for the job of our Wedding Photographer! We just got married 9/26/10 and we are still looking at the pictures almost 2 months later. There are soooo many great interpretation photos, it was so hard to pick which ones we liked the best. Besides taking great photos, MIchael is such a pleasure to work with. He listens to your suggestions and during the wedding you dont even know hes there!!! I would definetely recommend him for any occasions. We will be using you in the future as our "family Photographer" Thanks Again!!"

"You are amazing!!! Thank you SO much for giving us such a beautiful documentation of our wedding day! You managed to capture the joy and love in the faces of every person there, and your intuition as to what makes a good shot is incredible: there were so many nice surprises! You are truly an artist, and we couldn't be happier with your work.

"I spent some time looking for a photographer for my wedding that would fit within my budget, I had seen a couple of photographers before, but when I met Michael, and what a different experience that was. Michael is extremely professional and makes you feel very comfortable from the first day you meet you. No question was ever too big or too small. I ran into a problem at the last minute where the girl that was supposed to do my hair was not going to be able to do it after all and I spoke with Michael and he got me Christie three days before my wedding. Michael did my wedding on 9/6/09, he arrived as Christie was doing my hair and was with me until the last dance at my reception. All I can say is that he made my wedding day move so smoothly, he got so many pictures of people that they didn't even know they were taken a picture of and after the ceremony, he got the family/bridal pictures done as quickly as possible and everybody was still able to enjoy the cocktail hour. He took amazing pictures of the wedding party and all of the guests, he even went as far as answering and assisting some of my guest questions about their cameras. Everybody at my wedding had nothing but wonderful things to say about him, he is an extremely professional photographer and he makes you feel so comfortable, that it is like he is just one of your best friends that is there to make sure that everything goes right on this special day. I would highly recommend Michael to every bride and groom out there. I would highly recommend him to every single bride and groom looking for the most professional wedding photographer that will capture every detail of the most important day of your life. Michael is very talented and will make you look more beautiful than you could ever imagine in your wedding pictures."

I wish you much continued success as you continue to capture and illuminate the special moments of other's lives as you have done for us. Thank you again for sharing your wonderful talent with us on our wedding day.

"My guests loved you, Scott and I loved you! "That photographer, he was an old friend right?" was the repeated question. Your warmth and kindness made my guest feel comfortable around you; it was as if you were one of the guests! (from her review in The Knot.) Wonderful! Wonderful! Michael Chadwick was timely, professional and joy to be around. He was so good, that my friends and family saw how relaxed I was working with him, that they assumed that he was someone I had known for many years. I live in Kansas and my wedding was in New York City. I had seen Michael's work on line and had spoken with him on the phone. I was very impressed with him and took a leap of faith. I met Michael in person for the first time 30 minutes before my wedding. He made everyone feel very comfortable and his work is stunning. I could not have selected a better photographer. I highly recommend him for your special day."
