MICHAEL ALLEN: I’m primarily a commercial photographer now, working for some of the biggest names in the world. I love photographing people and I love photographing destination weddings. With over 20 years commercial photography & production experience. I continually strive to think “out of the box” and deliver exceptional photos for each of my clients. A member of WPPI and PPA, my vision for my clients is to offer the very best in photography. We’ve won Accolade of Excellence Awards from WPPI, and we are very honored to have won many other awards. I also work on professional movie sets, shot several indie films and documentaries. We have work that has been featured in publications across the globe, and we’re currently the editorial photographer for Southern Bride Magazine. I’ve got a beautiful wife and kids who all keep me smiling. Did I mention that I love working with people? We love to travel for destination weddings, and our most recent destination wedding was in Puerto Vallarta Mexico for an exclusive shoot with Colin Cowie Weddings at Hard Rock Resorts.
