Without a doubt, Mike is the best portrait photographer in the Philly area. He is INCREDIBLY…read moreskilled and knows how to make his clients feel relaxed. I've never enjoyed having my pictures taken, but with Mike, it's so much fun. He has the most infectious energy, and knows how to bring out your inner beauty and joy. It's clear in everything he does that he wants his clients to be happy. And for the quality of photos, his prices are absolutely fair. I refuse to get my photos done by anyone else!

Mike is an absolute gem. As a medical student, I'm not exactly a natural in front of the camera,…read moreand thought my headshots for ERAS would turn out awkward like all other school photos. Mike is a miracle worker and he captured my best, most natural self with ease. He is a ray of sunshine and made the inherently awkward process completely fun and painless. Truly exceptional, and I give my highest recommendation!

Ok, when I volunteered to head up the "finding the photographer" part of my brothers wedding I…read morethought it was going to be a much harder task to complete. I searched for a couple days and read reviews, got recommendations and compared plans/rates and started to get frustrated. Until I came across Michael Dawson Photography! I made a call and they were able to work around a pretty crazy schedule to meet with us and go over everything that they offered shoot wise (picture types, themes, etc) as well as super easy to understand plans and pricing. When we looked at the example photos they brought to the meeting we almost couldn't decide on the way we wanted to go because there were so many amazing options! After a couple questions about preferences and likes/dislikes they were able to put together a wedding package that my brother still raves about to this day. I could go on and on about price as well but I'll just say that when we got our quote that made this choice even easier. When you get a quote for the best pictures you've seen at the most competitive price you've seen you know you've arrived at the right decision! Thank you again!

I used J&J Studies for a 3-day event. I contacted them after a Google search and received a quote…read morevery quickly. They worked with me to finalize the details and the final quote was in line with what I was looking for and very competitive. What impressed me the most was the professionalism of the studio across the board - working with the owner on the timeline, working with the photographers each day, and the speed of the final deliverables. The studio even made some adjustments on a group photo to remove some items and enhance it. Prior to the start, the owner created a very detailed timeline of the event for each photographer and a group text to keep everyone informed of any changes or to handle any issues. The photographers themselves were great! They were not obtrusive, quick to respond and did a great job capturing the spirit of the event across the 3 days. To summarize, what impressed me was: - Timeliness on quoting and response rate - Excellence of staff - Coordination of staff - Punctuality and professionalism - Quality of the final product Please consider them for your next event.

I was recently asked to provide a review for J & J Studios, nearly five years after working with…read morethem. I had avoided doing so because I understand how hard it can be for small businesses, especially in the wedding industry, and I do not leave negative reviews lightly. That said, the request brought the experience back, and I feel it is worth sharing for other couples. We originally booked J & J Studios during lockdown in 2020 for our April 2022 wedding. In January 2022, after I received a serious medical diagnosis, my husband and I had to postpone our wedding to October. Our venue and every other vendor worked with us, requested reasonable documentation, and did not require additional payment. J & J handled things differently. We were told we would need to pay a new deposit to hold the new date, plus an additional fee because they were unlikely to rebook our original date. We were told that if they did book it, the extra cost would be refunded. With significant medical bills at the time, that added cost was not feasible. For context, about two months after we postponed, I had a friend inquire about our original April date, and she was told it was booked. I wish the experience had been different. We were willing to meet them in the middle as far as the additional payment given the circumstances but they felt they could not at the time. I understand that businesses have policies, but during an already difficult and emotional time, we were left feeling unsupported.
