We had Mike for our wedding and Epcot photo shoot. I'm a member of a Disney brides FB group and everyone there who has had Mike said their pictures turned out terrible! I thought mine were pretty good, so I'm interested to see other photos by other photographers, as well as some by Mike for other people!

Mike did our engagement photos...they were awful. We did complain and were offered a percentage off our next shoot and a free 11x14 print...but that's still $300 wasted and I don't intend on doing it again..

Wow, that's awful! I'm sorry you had such a bad experience. :( Would you be willing to share some of your photos?

Not a past bride but a planning bride. Getting married next summer at wdw. I have been extremely unimpressed with the onsite photos Ive seen and after MUCH looking I booked David & Vicki Arndt and couldn't be happier!!

I hired an outside photographer for our wedding day (Jason Angelini), but had Mike Strictland from Disney for our Bridal Portraits the next morning. Just got them a few weeks back and honestly, they were the best pictures I have ever seen in my life. Most professional too. I have no complaints what so ever about him or his pictures. I highly recommend him!

I am interested in booking an engagement photo session in disney world but cannot seem to find info on it! Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

I guess for the price I expected better quality, and more better pictures then awful ones :( and he did not take any of our requests into consideration and made it well known he had never been to pors before..

Wow, you guys are tiny! I'm sorry that happened. :( We have a couple that are kind of far away, but I think it was unavoidable since we wanted SSE in the background. We'll be sure to ask for a different photographer next time we do a shoot.

Ty covered our Epcot wedding, Amy did the nighttime shoot, and Tom did the morning castle shoot. All very professional and I would highly recommend.
