Michele Cardamone is more than a photographer--she's someone who captures the heart of a moment and…read morepreserves it in a way that feels genuinely sacred. I've had the privilege of doing several sessions with Michele over the years, and the value of her work has only grown with time. She has photographed my family in a way that truly reflects who we are, including some of the most meaningful pictures I have of me and my grandma. My grandma has since passed, and I cannot put into words how much those photos mean to me now. They are treasured, irreplaceable reminders of love, connection, and presence--and I'm endlessly grateful Michele had the gift of capturing that so beautifully. Michele has also been there through different seasons of my life. She took photos of me as a teenager, and most recently, she photographed me as I stepped into the final stage of my career path--transitioning into a nurse practitioner. What sets Michele apart is how she makes you feel. I'm naturally shy in front of a camera, but she creates an environment that feels safe, uplifting and even powerful!She has a way of bringing out your true self--helping you feel comfortable, confident, and beautiful without anything feeling forced. Honestly, working with Michele feels like a form of self-love. Getting your photos back--of you, your family, your milestones-- is such a gift. For me it helped me see my family from and outside perspective- and for my solo sessions, it actually increased my self confidence and self love! Her editing is timeless and stunning, but what I love most is that she never edits out the realness. She captures emotion, connection, and the little in-between moments that make a photo feel alive. If you're considering booking with Michele, do it. I would recommend her for any photography needs, without hesitation. You'll walk away with more than "pictures"--you'll have memories preserved with care, artistry, and so much heart

They helped point him in the right direction including the best locations for the proposal, dropped pins on where the location was and provided example photos of the view. They were there through every step of the planning process with him so he knew exactly where to be come game time. During the actual proposal, Lydia & T did a great job of capturing every moment while also making us feel like it was just the two of us. I didn't even realize they were there until after the proposal. After the fact, they had champagne flutes ready for us and more. I was in complete shock after the proposal but they helped guide us with where to take photos, how to pose, ring pictures and even got some action shots skiing. The whole proposal itself was just a whirlwind so it was amazing having them both there to guide us. We were very excited to get our photos back and it was safe to say they far exceeded our expectations! We can't stop staring at them! They truly made our families feel like they were there with us and allow us to relive our engagement every day. Simply cannot recommend them enough!!

My boyfriend corresponded with Bex way ahead of time, sent her cutouts of my family, and planned the whole thing with her. On the day of the proposal, Bex had to get the cutouts to the top of the mountain and set everything up. She truly went above and beyond! It was windy that day so I can imagine how stressful it was to get those cutouts to stand up. We had a lovely 30 min session with her after the proposal and she sent us our photos within 5 days, which is amazing! We had almost 100 photos total, for a TRULY reasonable price. We love Bex and would highly recommend her!
