    Breathtaking work.

    I hired Renee for my wedding 4 years ago and just hired her again for my husband's 60th surprise birthday party. Her work is amazing and beautiful. She always catches the right moments. Her experience shows in every photo. In addition, her creativity in the post production work is also breathtaking. I just love working with her and Gary. Totally professional and top notch. I 100% recommend them. You cannot go wrong if you choose them. Andrea Dunlap

    Renee photographed our summer wedding and we are so glad that we chose to work with her! Renee and her assistant Shelby were with us all day and they did a great job of capturing all of the special moments and they were very unobtrusive. We also hired Gary to photograph the first part of the day and it was very helpful to have two photographers. I was especially nervous about group and family photos because I have a large family and they can be difficult to wrangle, but Renee and Gary did a great job at directing our large (and chaotic) group to get great photos. Renee was also very good at keeping us on our tight timeline...

    Renee's photos are absolutely STUNNING. She and her assistant were fabulous the entire day. They were never in the way, were flexible and accommodating when we made last minute requests for group photos. They were excited that we wanted the family dogs in the photos too and made the experience more fun.

    The quality of Renee's prints is amazing. The DVD / High resoulution disk is great because we can edit and continue printing our own photos. We can't wait for our album to arrive because we know that will be spectacular too. Renee Michele Photography is the best! We will be going back to her for future photos too.

    The Best!!!

    Renee is the best photographer and so amazing to work with!! Renee was quickly responsive to my inquiries, helped with my planning, and her phone calls leading up to the wedding helped me to calm my nerves and make my dream wedding (and dream photos!) come true. She produces such amazing work! The quality of our wedding photos and the quantity of the photos we received were AMAZING! She has a beautiful artistic eye for capturing the best and most sincere moments. I look back at my album and am overjoyed. She was fun to work with on the day of the wedding, and made me and my now husband so comfortable. She also came early on the wedding...

    Fabulous Family Pictures

    Our family had a photo session with Renee just a couple weeks ago. We all had fun, and she took amazing pictures while we were having fun! Her photo session is a seasonal must-have!

    Amazing! 10/10!

    Renee was my photographer for our engagement photos, rehearsal dinner photos, and wedding photos. I was so happy I found her. She is so talented. The quality of her photos are amazing. She is a pleasure to work with as well. She even schedules time before the wedding to review the wedding day schedule. I would highly recommend her. She captured my wedding day so beautifully. I will always treasure these photos. Lastly she makes quality wedding albums. I can't wait to see mine :)

    We had a phenomenal experience with Renee and her team - Gary, Shelby - photographing our rehearsal dinner and wedding. They completely exceeded my expectations in terms of responsiveness, professionalism, and quality (and quantity!) of absolutely gorgeous photos. I admittedly did not make it easy -- I wasn't able to provide a ton of specific guidance regarding the types of photos I was looking for (my only real ask was to avoid too many overly sentimental or corny/romantic shots, as it's just not my style), and yet Renee was able to take that very limited guidance and delivered exactly the types of photos I wanted but wasn't able to clearly articulate. In short -- in addition to her and...

    My husband and I recommend Renee Michele Photography to anyone planning a wedding in the Baltimore or DC area. We met with a few photographers, but Renee blew us away with her professionalism and her portfolio. She immediately put us at ease when we met, walking us through a tentative plan for our wedding day without adding any pressure or unnecessary expenses. She and I spoke over the phone several times leading up to the wedding to map out the timing of our event and had a pre-wedding visit at the church and reception venue.

    Renee absolutely delivered. I wanted our wedding photographs to look like the day—classic and natural with as many shots of our family...

    Having a photographer who would be easy and flexible to work with, capture the emotion and joy of the day, be unobtrusive during the ceremony and reception, and create beautiful images for us to look back on from our special day was extremely important to us. Renee and Gary fulfilled all of the above and more! Planning with Renee was easy and seamless. On the day of the wedding, Renee and Gary were a delight to work with and were able to capture all the moments from our wedding without being obtrusive. We received our images so quickly and they are absolutely stunning! We highly recommend Renee to photograph your special occasion!

    There is no question that you should choose Renee Michele to photograph your wedding, you will be incredibly happy, we certainly are! Renee is the best in the business: Her photographs are unmatched for creativity and classic beauty. She knows how to put people at ease, she captures the most flattering angles and she doesn't miss a moment. She's also a pro at photographing children! I wouldn't hesitate to hire Renee again and we look forward to enjoying her photographs for decades to come.

    Renee took my engagement portraits in September and I was beyond thrilled with the results! She is so wonderful to work with, very easy going yet totally professional. My fiance and I absolutely loved our engagement photos (especially the candid ones!) and we highly recommend Renee to anyone who wants photos that look like they came straight out of a magazine! Thank you Renee for making us look good!

    We loved working with Renée and Gary! They are so fun and easy to work with, always professional while still keeping the mood light. We were so relaxed on our wedding day, knowing they knew the shots we wanted, made sure to get those and had some very creative ideas on ones we never would have thought of. Half the time we didn't even realize they were shooting! They know how to be discrete while doing their job to get candids, and also did a great job of being assertive when needed to get the large, wild, unruly family shots:). We've seen a few sneak peak photos and are thrilled with what they captured of our wedding day!!

    I cannot begin to tell you how amazing Renee and Gary are. Their photos are not only beautiful but they are amazing people that make you feel relaxed, make you laugh and make the whole experience amazing. My husband and I had our engagement photos taken with them as well as our wedding photos. Both experiences were amazing. Renee called me and talked through what look I wanted what special shots I wanted and made wonderful suggestions. They are both so talented and creative that when it came to choosing a wedding I knew that I made the best decision. Renee also happened to photograph my engagement as well and they are some of my favorite photos ever!

    We can’t possibly say enough wonderful things about Renee! My husband and I spent a lot of time researching photographers and absolutely fell in love with her work. Her photography speaks for itself - it’s incredible! Throughout the entire process, Renee was incredibly easy-going. We often had to reach out to her to coordinate our wedding day itinerary with a few different vendors (and make a ton of changes); she was always quick to respond and very flexible with our timeline. On the big day, our photography was incredibly natural and unobtrusive. I fancy myself a pretty awkward person, so I was sure that over half of the pictures were going to involve me hunched over, mid-unattractive laugh. I...

    When it came to finding the best photographer for us, we had 3 things in mind:

    1) Since the wedding photographer is NOT a good place to be cheap, we wanted the right balance between paying well, but not blowing half our budget.

    2) We wanted a REAL photographer. And by real photographer, I mean someone who knows the art of a great photo. Things like lighting, composition, timing, connection, etc. Not just someone who takes your pictures and your money.

    3) But above all, obviously, we wanted someone who would deliver beautiful images. Ones that would capture a little smile here, a quiet moment there. Photos that 30 years from now would make us...

    Renee and Gary are amazing! Renee met with me before my wedding to help me scout out the perfect place for my "first look" with my husband. She really took the time to get to know us and what we were looking for. She was extremely flexible when I changed my mind about particular details and just generally very accommodating and easy to work with. On the day of our wedding, Renee and Gary helped put us at ease. They also kept us smiling and having fun, which was awesome. They are incredibly talented and creative. When Renee sent me the online link to the finished photos, I was blown away. I cried, I laughed, and I sorted through...

    After six months of planning every detail of the wedding, the big day finally came and in a flash, it was over. Renee Michele was the wedding photographer we chose to capture the special day and she was amazing. We wanted to be married outside, under the stars on our farm surrounded by the land, animals (horses dogs, cats, and chickens too) friends, and family we loved. Faced with the manychallenges of an outdoor wedding, Renee did an amazing job.

    The pictures arrived 6 weeks later and every special moment of the wedding celebration came flooding back. Not only had Renee captured the mood of the day, she alsocaptured the personalities of our friends and family, and...

    Our photographs turned out amazing! Renee and Gary are great to work with each step of the way, and their work styles really compliment each other. They did a great job catching special moments. The photographs show our entire wedding day, and the happiness that we, our family, and our guests felt throughout the day is seen through the pictures. My husband pointed out that they captured our personalities in the pictures. We are so happy that we worked with Renee Michele Photography!

    Renee Michele is truly an artist. She documented our wedding experience with a large assortment of beautiful images. Our friends and family thought they were the best wedding photos they had ever seen. Renee was fantastic to work with and thoroughly professional. You only get one chance to get your wedding pictures, Renee Michele will not disappoint.
