refined Wedding Photographers for couples planning their opulent events
Michelle is a fine art wedding photographer located in New Jersey and servicing New York, Pennsylvania, California and destinations beyond. In her experience in wedding photography and commercial photography while on-set with celebrities at red carpet in Los Angeles and to photographing private estates in the Hamptons she has determined the approach to photographing and curation is what defines her extraordinary approach to photography.
Prior to stepping on site she guides you through the curation process and creates a highly detailed, and effective timeline. With great attention to detail, the timeline will ensure enough time to soak in the moment and capture those elevated portraits you desire in your couture bridal gowns and bespoke attire. With responsive, clear communication we ensure couples receive the utmost attentive service prior to their day and throughout the curation process. The day of approach is a vibe. Michelle seamlessly blends into the background with her use of documentary and photojournalism and curates works of art. She provides clear direction when necessary with her genuine amiable personality. She comforts clients with energy, kindness, clear communication and great attention to detail as she guides you through the process. Upon returning to the studio, she crafts exceptional bespoke heirlooms exceeding expectations and providing heirlooms curated by works only of a true artist.

"My husband and I explored and interviewed several photographers for our wedding, but when we connected with Michelle, we knew we found the right person! We felt the trust and her contagious enthusiasm early in our relationship - her deep experience shooting at our wedding venue pushed things over the top. On our wedding day, she and her team were professional, patient (but also kept order), and knew all the right angles. Following the wedding, she turned around a quick 100+ photo gallery for family friends and several Instagram reels, which were incredibly appreciated. Thanks again Michelle"

A: With Michelle and our team, you do not have to worry whether you need eight hours of photography or ten. Unless you’re hosting a 50-guest-or-fewer micro wedding, ALL of our collections include a full day of photography from prep to your cake cutting!
Q: How many hours of coverage do you recommend?
A: I believe your photography experience should not end with a link to a gallery or a review request. Our experience begins before your step in front of my lens with thoughtful planning and continues afterward, with fine art design-oriented gallery reveal of your heirlooms—your love story—to get out of your inbox and into your hands.
Q: What do you mean when you say you offer a full-service experience?
A: Absolutely! You can continue to print images from your gallery store long after your design session. I simply begin the process with curating your album the day you see your wedding collection! Then there is no stress over searching for a lab, DIY designing your album ..
Q: Can we print images on our own?
A: My photography style incorporates a mix of documentary and photojournalism. Capturing the effortless moments naturally as they unfold. Capturing the day in this fashion allows for the photographers to fade to the background and highlight their subjects at best as they enjoy each and every moment of their day.
Q: How would you describe your photography style?

"I had a great experience with Michelle Behre as our wedding photographer! From the start, she and I clicked instantly. She really understood my vision and was so happy and friendly throughout the process. We hired Michelle for both our welcome dinner and wedding day. While her assistant handled the welcome dinner and was super kind, we’re still waiting to see those photos. On our wedding day, Michelle was attentive and made sure to capture all the special moments. Her editing style is gorgeous, and she really listened to what I wanted. We’ve just received our sneak peek, and the photos are stunning!"
