Even the ones who told me before the wedding that they're rather unphotogenic.
“We find ourselves rather unphotogenic … even we really like how we look in the photos.”Raffaela & Matthias, Das Haidensee
“You are the most unobtrusive wedding photographer, and you created impressive images of our big day.”
The first 20 to 30 images arrive on your phone.
Then you receive the full gallery of 600 to 650 images and the first draft of your album.
I photograph no more than 20 weddings a year, only one on any weekend.
I'm with you from the morning until dinner, and I stay longer if you like. You receive your proposal after we meet.
I accompany your civil ceremony for up to two hours, with couple photos afterward. From €990 in Vienna.
If you book your 2027 wedding, the engagement session is included. By your wedding day, you already know me.
The album is made by hand in a manufactory in Italy and comes with a lifetime guarantee.
“His calm and reassuring presence made us and our guests feel completely comfortable.”
“Michael had the entire wedding timeline perfectly timed and truly captured every moment!”
“The images are a dream, and you can see the details and the love behind every photo.”
“Michael is superbly organized, full of great ideas, and works calmly and professionally.”
Multiple award winner at the Austrian Wedding Awards
Wedding photographer in Vienna since 2014
I first trained in a traditional trade, then went to university, then worked for an airline and traveled the world. Finally, I landed in wedding photography. Since then I have photographed weddings at places like Palais Coburg, Laxenburg Palace, the Haidensee in Carinthia and in Paris.
I shot my first wedding as a hobby photographer, for a friend. Beforehand I told him more than once to hire someone with experience. He insisted on me anyway. The images turned out well, and the two of them still look at them today.
“With Michael you get a professional photographer and an entertainment program in one.”Astrid, Google review
My proposal should fit your wedding exactly. So we first work out together how long I stay, which moments matter to you and what you would like on top. I take on no more than 20 weddings a year, and each Saturday can only be booked once. You enjoy your day. I take care of the photos. In the initial call you get a first estimate, then my proposal for exactly your day. If the scope does not fit your budget, we put it together differently.
No worries, most of my couples feel unsure in front of the camera at first. With short, clear cues, I help you focus entirely on each other, so natural images emerge.
First we talk on the phone for about 30 minutes: am I free on your date, and what matters to you? After that we meet in person in Vienna for about 90 minutes, and you page through three complete wedding albums. If you're marrying outside Vienna, we do this via Zoom. If you're coming from abroad, we skip the call and get to know each other in one longer Zoom conversation. Then you receive my proposal, and with a deposit your date is secured. Before the wedding, we walk through the day together with my wedding day checklist, and we take the group photo right after the recessional. After the gallery, we design your album. And if you like, we meet again, for your anniversary or for pictures with the family.
Within 24 hours you have 20 to 30 images in your own gallery on your phone. The complete gallery of 600 to 650 images follows within a guaranteed 14 days, together with the first draft of your wedding album.
The colors are always matched to your skin tones. That is my top priority.
A few images, yes, for example putting on the earrings or fastening the hand chain. Ninety percent I simply let happen.
No more than 20, only one on any weekend.
In addition to wedding photography, you can book a wedding teaser of about 3 to 5 minutes. I'm happy to show you an example in a personal meeting.
You can add extra hours at any time, each additional hour is €270. I'll check in with you as soon as extra hours come up and get your approval first.
A deposit of 50 % secures your date. The balance is due 30 days before the wedding. Cancellations within the final 30 days are billed in full. You can pay by bank transfer or by credit card.
I am a wedding photographer in Vienna, for weddings in Vienna, Lower Austria and Burgenland, and anywhere in Austria with no travel fees. Couples who come to Vienna from abroad to get married can work with me in English or German. More about a destination wedding in Vienna.
We'll take photos on your wedding day no matter what. There's always a roof, a passage, a sheltered corner, and rain images are often among the strongest of the day.
On top of that, my fair-weather guarantee applies: should it truly pour all day, or if you simply wish for additional photos in the sun, we reshoot your couple portraits in good weather. Free of charge, you just slip into your wedding attire once more.
Yes. Love is love.
You will hear back from me within 24 hours.
