5 Reviews for Carly Michelle
5 out of 5. Recommended by 100% of couples
Carly was one of the absolute best parts of our wedding day, and we are so grateful we chose her. From our very first interaction she made us feel completely at ease. She listened carefully to what we wanted, offered thoughtful ideas without ever pushing, and somehow managed to capture both the big, emotional moments and all the quiet, in-between ones that we would have otherwise missed.
On the day itself, Carly was calm, present, and completely unobtrusive. We changed the entire wedding timeline from start to finish the night before due to heavy rain, and Carly led us through everything masterfully while capturing the most special of moments.
She moved through the entire estate, family photos, ceremony and celebration with such grace that we barely noticed her—yet when we got the preview photos back, it felt like she had been everywhere at once. The photos of us exchanging vows, our family members, the candid laughter, the way she captured the light and the emotion of the day…they are everything we hoped for and more. She somehow made us look completely like ourselves while still creating images that feel timeless and beautiful.
What stood out most was how comfortable she made us feel. Neither of us are naturally comfortable in front of the camera, but Carly’s positivity and gentle direction turned what could have been stressful into one of the most enjoyable parts of our day. She was professional, kind, and clearly invested in telling our story the way we lived it.
We cannot recommend Carly enough. If you want a photographer who is insanely talented, timeless, thoughtful, and makes you feel seen in the most positive light, she is the one. Our photos are already one of our most treasured things from the entire wedding.

Working with Carly for our engagement and wedding photos was an absolute joy. As a couple who is a little camera shy, she knows exactly how to make you feel comfortable behind the camera. She knows the exact angles you look best in and her photography is stunning. On top of that, she is extremely flexible and will go with the flow (she dealt with our very high energy dogs and was able to get terrific photos). We truly think working with Carly was one of the best choices we made for our wedding and we could not be more grateful for all the moments she captured. In fact, Carly has now captured our biggest family moments and we are extremely excited to continue working with her to capture more! Thank you for making our memories last a lifetime, Carly!!
We cannot thank Carly enough for capturing both our engagement and wedding so beautifully! She was not only an incredible photographer, but also such a calming and supportive presence throughout the entire day. She kept us on schedule, checked in with us often, and made sure we were doing okay every step of the way.
Her attention to detail is unmatched, and her direction for posing felt so natural and effortless. We didn't even realize there were cameras around us - allowing us to focus on being in the moment. She delivered our gallery so quickly, allowing us to relive every special moment almost immediately. We are beyond grateful for her and cannot recommend her enough, truly 11/10!

It's honestly hard to know where to begin with reviewing Carly, as she is so wonderful in every way! I found Carly on Instagram more than five years ago and continued to follow her, always in awe of her gorgeous work. After we got engaged, she was the very first vendor I contacted, and I was thrilled to hear that she was available on our wedding date. I was so excited (and so certain that she was the best choice) that I think I signed the contract less than a week into our engagement!
We could not possibly be happier with our choice to work with Carly. She is professional, kind, ridiculously talented, organized, thoughtful, and a true expert of her craft. She is also incredibly personable and made everyone in our wedding party feel so relaxed and comfortable, which shows in the photos! I am generally a pretty "Type A" person who prefers to be in control of everything :), but working with Carly, I was able to sit back and fully trust her expertise. I knew that whatever photos she captured would be amazing, and boy was I right!
Even after following Carly for years and being well aware of her incredible talent, we were not prepared for how magnificent her photos would be. Carly has a way of capturing real emotion, genuine facial expressions, and true joy that is honestly remarkable. I have never seen wedding photos like hers, striking a perfect balance between gorgeous artwork and genuine emotion. Looking through our photos brought us right back to the best day of our lives. Everyone who has seen the photos has been blown away by them. We will treasure these photos forever!

We had the privilege of having Carly capture our proposal and wedding and she is a true artist at her craft. Carly's photos are not only gorgeous, but authentic, and they have a way of transporting you back to the very moment she captured.
Above all, Carly is warm, professional, and brings a calming presence within the chaos of a wedding day. She has an incredible ability to keep things moving seamlessly, yet always be perfectly positioned to capture the most meaningful moments. We were able to be fully immersed in our wedding day, not worrying about photos, knowing that we had Carly alongside us.
Carly, we will cherish the photos you captured for a lifetime. We are forever grateful, thank you!
