Looking at the categories to be rated, I can honestly say that Michael was off the 1-5 scale in every single one. All of our wedding vendors were pretty awesome, but Michael stood out most of all for going the extra mile. It was a real pleasure working with him at every stage of the process, from interviewing to engagement photos to the actual wedding day.
There are many things to consider when hiring vendors, but I think one aspect that is underestimated is reliability. It really made a huge difference on the momentous day-of to know that our wedding photos were in good hands, not just in terms of the quality of Michael's photos (which we knew from the engagement session would be stellar) but in his level of dedication. Michael arrived on-site early (the day before, in fact, to scout out lighting and locations), stayed late, and didn't even take a single break the entire day because he didn't want to miss any shots.
I could go on and on all day, but I'll just end by saying my hubby and I are supremely happy that we chose Michael to be our photographer.

Michael is one of the best, if not the best photographer I have come in contact with in the Central Valley. He did an absolutely fabulous job shooting our wedding, and went the extra mile to ensure that the entire wedding party was at ease while shooting. His artistic abilities, creativity, use of light in photos, and overall dedication to excellence are second to none! We had the best experience EVER working with Michael L'Heureux Photography and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding photographer in, or near the Central Valley. Check out the blog and you will see! Absolutely amazing pictures that capture the true nature of "the momment" as it's suspended within time. Trust me...you will not be dissapointed!!!

With how stressful weddings can be, it was a relief to work with Michael. He was very professional, easy to work with and organized. His work is artistic, simple and amazing!! He captured moments and scenes that we very well may have overlooked during that crazy wedding day and I can now look back at it all. My husband and I are extremely happy with the entire experience (from the engagement session to our wedding). What a joy to work with!! Michael is someone we will always work with in the future....hopefully next time will be when he photograph our children.

Wow...what can I say...except that Michael is a true professional! I was the bride that didn't want to know that there was a photographer there...and I wanted random...in the moment pics...and Michael did just that! I love my pics and he caught the most amazing moments...just what I wanted...I loved that he really listened to my needs...and I can say whole-heartedly that if you tell him what you want your pics to be...he will make it happen...amazing! Thanks Michael...you have beautifully captured the most wonderful day in my life!

I purchased a gift certificate for Michael's photography at a fundraiser and was going to give it to my brother for Christmas until I visited his website. His photography was so artistic and beauiful that it inspired me to have 20th Anniversary photos taken by him. I really wanted to show that old married folks could still look great if they were photographed by an exceptionally talented photographer. Our photos were elegant and gorgeous- a nice commemorative anniversary gift to each other. -Michele Cantwell-Copher, January 2010
