We have had 2 family photos taken over the past 10 years: the first with us and our 3 kids and daughter-in-law on the beach and the other with us and our 3 kids and their spouses and 6 grandkids at Ocean Park. Both turned out terrifically. Michael Cyra himself did the most recent shoot and the photos turned out great. I highly recommend him and will use him again, since we have since had yet another grandchild!

I was recently proposed to and as apart of the surprise, I see Michael to the side capturing our special moment! Michael was an absolute joy and professional during our engagement shoot. He made my fiance and I feel at ease and comfortable throughout the entire process and came forth with great ideas and a plan to make the best use of the time. Highly recommend for capturing any occasion!

Michael, the owner, did a photoshoot for my family during our Kiawah vacation in the summer of 2018. It was a family shoot, with some additional senior portraits of our oldest son. I asked him to recreate a shot I had taken on the beaches of North Carolina's Outer Banks of my two sons ten years prior. He matched the pose, and now I have two beautiful canvas portraits hanging in my family room of my two boys.

I'm so pleased at the results. Michael was friendly and courteous, even bringing bug spray and a bag to put our shoes in as we walked down to the beach. We faced windy conditions that day, but he scouted out ahead of time and recommended several shots up on the dunes and boardwalk before we got down to the windier beach. The senior portraits of my son are amazing, including post-touches where he enhanced the blue of his eyes and the blue of the ocean behind him. Start to finish, we had a great experience. Can't recommend Photographs enough. Thank you, Michael! We'll be back.

We have had Michael with Photographics Photography take our family pictures every summer for the past 5 years. We absolutely love his work! He is so talented and his pictures always capture the best of my family. He is easy to work with and he is so patient with my young boys, always getting smiles from them. Taking pictures with Michael has become a highlight of our trips to Kiawah!

He always knows where to go on the boardwalk and beach to get the best pictures in the best lighting. The pictures he has taken of my family are priceless to me and I can't recommend him enough!

Photographics Photography took our family beach portraits on Kiawah Island in 2015 and again in 2018. Michael was wonderful to work with. He coaxed and captured adorable smiles from our 2-year old grandson. He also thoughtfully captured each of our children with their spouses and children, as well as our entire group, so that we now have a beautiful gallery of family portraits. The finished prints were high quality and ready quickly, so we could relive our Kiawah vacation soon after our return home! I highly recommend Photographics Photography.

Michael was fabulous to work with during the session and his office staff was efficient and a pleasure to speak with for wardrobe questions, scheduling or anything else we needed. Our portraits were beautiful and excellent considering we have a mixed skin tone family of 6 and lighting is often hard. We will use Photographics again without reservations.
