“I highly recommend this company to take photos at your wedding! We loved our photographer Percy. He was incredible, and so helpful. He came with several cameras and valued all of our ideas, and when we became stumped he offered ideas for us to try as well. He was very professional, kind, caring, and always on top of the game taking photos. Towards the end of our night he started to put the camera away and brought it back out to catch a few final moments. He was on top of responding to all questions before, during, and after. He took photos of me and my husband before the ceremony and got some wonderful shots (it was a 95 outside wedding so this was much appreciated because we all had some sweat on our faces). But before we got Percy and our booking process with eivans it was super simple, and just an overall great experience.”

My name is Branson and I am the Best Of State Winner in Utah. I have traveled to over 80 countries photographing and filming weddings in all corners of the globe. I also teach photography and videography to other creatives and am known for my timeless, romantic, and candid style.

“TLDR The value you get when choosing Branson Way more than offsets the cost. He is a world class photographer and equally excellent in post. Pick him and he will not let you down. Pick someone else and you're rolling the dice. Branson's Photography speaks for itself, but it can't leave a review so I will! Any photographer can take a picture, few can capture moments. What was important to my Fiance and I when selecting a photographer was someone that would do the basics, quick responses, a modicum of flexibility, shows up on time, that kind of thing. We also wanted someone who would be fun to work with, listen to our requests, and when needed share, based on his extensive experience, what we should be doing differently. We wanted a photographer that could direct people in group shots, and direct us! we're not models (even if my wife looks like one) but Branson was fantastic at getting the best and most natural poses out of us. Branson is the Unicorn of a photographer that manages all of this with poise and grace. When asked for he had perspective and advice on many aspects of prep for the wedding. Branson isn't just a photographer, by the time we were done with engagements, first look, flat lays, the wedding day itself Branson was family.”

Our focus is on real moments, beautiful light, and photos that feel like you. Whether you’re planning a cozy backyard wedding or an adventurous elopement in the mountains, we’ll capture it with care and creativity.

“Our experience was far beyond what we’d hoped for! We had so much fun at the engagement shoot; it felt like spending time catching up with friends, but then we somehow also ended with incredible photos of us as a couple that we’ll always cherish. This translated to the wedding day but also extended to so much more — as a couple we aren’t particular about a lot of things and prefer to go with the flow and enjoy the moment. Megan and Kenneth both provided a sense of structure for us without anything ever feeling forced, using both wedding expertise and also careful consideration of us as individuals. From the way Megan rapidly buttoned up my dress, to the beautiful shots taken of our treasured guests, to the bits of advice and kind encouragement before the ceremony and in our first moments as a married couple - our day truly wouldn’t have been the same without you both. We felt so lucky to have two people helping us to be present and focus on one another throughout the craziness of the day - and to have Kenneth make sure that my dress stayed clean and unwrinkled! I wish we had better words to capture how great our experience was! We also had very clear and consistent communication via email and video calls throughout the process! As someone who was planning quite a bit in advance, they were the one vendor I never felt nervous about because of large periods of time lapsing without hearing from them.”

The team made us incredibly comfortable & prioritized all of our wants & needs above all. We planned our wedding in less than 90 days & Misha was there to guide us every step of the way...giving us the best recommendations! The entire Wedding flowed seamlessly thanks to the amazing team work between all of our vendors & the venue! Overall great experience! We received amazing quality work, with great communication & flexibility. We were incredible fortunate to have found and booked Misha and the Quality Media photography & videography team!

Michael Anthony Photography

McKinney, TX
  • Fine art style

I'm Michael Anthony, a wedding photographer based in Dallas–Fort Worth, with a second studio in Los Angeles. I shoot across DFW — Dallas, Fort Worth, McKinney, Frisco, Prosper, Plano — and travel for couples marrying farther afield. Nine countries and 1,000+ weddings so far. My approach is editorial and unobtrusive. I document the day rather than direct it, because I want your images to make you feel the moment again, not simply see it. I take a limited number of weddings each year so each one gets real attention. Tell me your date and venue and I'll confirm availability right away.

“As the head of a wedding floristry business, I've collaborated with numerous photographers, yet my experience with Michael Anthony Photography is worth a special mention. Michael, the driving force behind the lens, brings an unparalleled blend of artistry and finesse to his photography. My experience with Michael was nothing short of extraordinary. His ability to capture the subtle interplay of light and color in our floral arrangements was mesmerizing. He didn't just photograph flowers; he told their story, weaving them into the narrative of the wedding day with a sensitivity and grace that is rare to find. Jen, Michael's wife, brought an equally impressive level of skill and dedication to the table. Her meticulous attention to detail ensured that none of the intricate elements in our floral designs went unnoticed. She worked with a gentle, unobtrusive approach, which allowed her to capture stunning, candid images of the arrangements in their natural wedding setting. She captured a ton of detail images for me that I can use in my marketing. The synergy between Michael and Jen created an environment where creativity flourished. It was clear they understood and respected the importance of every detail in a wedding, especially the floral elements. Their work not only highlighted our designs but also enhanced them, providing a fresh and beautiful perspective. Awarding Michael Anthony Photography a 5-star review is an easy decision. Their professional yet personable approach, combined with their exceptional photographic talent, sets them apart in the wedding industry. I wholeheartedly recommend them to any couple in search of a photography team that will capture their wedding day with elegance, artistry, and an attentive eye for every beautiful detail.”

About wedding photographers

How much does a wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photographers early in their careers can cost as little as $1,500. Super experienced photographers, as seen in magazines like Vogue and Vanity Fair, can cost upwards of $30,000. The range is wide, but, in general, you can expect to spend around 10% of your budget on wedding photography. Rates also vary based on wedding length, the services you want, and location. A photographer based in an area with a lower cost of living, for example, will be less than one based in New York or San Francisco.

How much should we tip our wedding photographer?

A good rule of thumb is to tip 10% of their rate, or at least $100. If they’re bringing second photographers or assistants, an additional $50 to $75 per person is an appropriate and nice gesture.

What questions should we ask wedding photographers?

Aside from logistical questions about packages, pricing, and availability, it’s also important to use your conversation to get a sense of their personality. This person will be with you and your loved ones every step of your wedding day, including, if you want, in the dressing room! It’s very important that you and your partner both feel comfortable with them and their working style. Talk about your venue, how you want to feel when you look at your photos, and which photos from their portfolio you like best.
